My Head 02:35
When I was a young boy I could never see me here But now I've gone so far I'm only afraid of what I fear But the days keep churning on and I just kept going on Pretty soon the only thing I had to deal with was fear I just keep on going hoping that I'll make it clear Of my past and of my fears and be on my own man I look to the west and I only see somewhere to go I'll forget it all one day but I just kept my pace When I leave here I will know that I will always be near.

Trains 03:11
As I lie in bed to sleep I hear the trains all roll on by Who is tied to them? Who is waiting on them? You just lie there in your sleep Your heavy, even breathing Oblivious to what’s outside Every time you close your eyes When I wake up in your bed I hear the subway rattle on Where are they going now? Where will they sleep tonight? The sun cracks through the trees? They all have all lost their leaves But there is still hope for me As far around as I can see I know where I’m going to I’ll follow the tracks to you And from there we’ll spread our wings Fly off to a new place When we get there we will know Just how far we have flown And we know that’s left behind It’s not much but it’s on my mind And the days just pile on Of moving on and moving back There are some things I can’t forget I hope sometimes the same’s for you And now all I want to do Is lie in my bed with you And listen to all the trains And think about where we will be. it feels like more than that

[redacted] 01:30
I don't want to be another footnote I don't want to be an experiment I don't want to just be your sidekick I just want to be here with you.

Baby give me a reason that would make All the time that I've spent worth it And that would make leaving a mistake 'Cause by now I've had all the waiting I can take Old habits they die hard and now I wonder what am I still doing here At the end of the day, I wanna disappear Racking my brain for a reason to stay I never had too much to say, I'm singing anyway Give it up, let it go 'cause I just gotta know Will the planets align or am I wasting my time? I was looking for something, something real But with you I just won't find it 'Cause you leave me nothing I can feel And down on the ground I'm so numb to this whole deal Old habits drag me down and now I wonder how could I be so naive At the end of the day, this ain't what I need Racking my brain for a reason to stay I never had too much to say, I'm singing anyway Give it up, let it go 'cause I just gotta know Will the planets align or am I wasting my time? Racking my brain for a reason to stay I never had too much to say, I'm singing anyway Give it up, let it go 'cause I just gotta know Will the planets align or am I wasting my time? Racking my brain for a reason to stay I never had too much to say, I'm singing anyway Give it up, let it go 'cause I just gotta know Will the planets align or am I wasting my time?

Yr Side 00:40
I don't know you that well, but I hope you can tell just how far I will go to be by yr side.

about

"Winter Solace" was written and recorded from Jan. 7 to Jan. 19, 2013 in Anna's room in Bel Air, Md. It's a collection of songs recorded in a way that I'd never recorded before, so it's a bit of an experiment from all the other things I'm working on. I took the photo that's the album art while I was flying from Minneapolis to Baltimore on Jan. 16 and the sun was setting.
