summer in a university town i take what i want from the shops cause no one’s around i called you while pillaging a frat house you didn’t pick up and i’m sick of natty light now i followed you through stories from mutual friends you’re like the heat when it’s too hot to sleep you’re like cicadas in magnolia trees.

cedar key 04:04
pack your bags you’re going abroad for the summer when you come back with all your pictures it’s nothing but a monumental bummer in smoke and heat and humidity you make plans to leave you’re broke, you’re beat but it’s what you’re feeling don’t tell anyone you’re not sticking around ghosting a whole town it don’t really go down that well in town for the week you make the drive out to cedar key the sunshine is bleak you don’t find what you need but at least it’s better than st. augustine.

sleep sweats 04:21
the sun will kill me today and if i’m wrong it’ll kill me tomorrow i try to go outside with my dog why do i even bother i can’t sleep cause it’s too hot right now i’ll try again in the morning start a project and stop call in sick to work even though i've got nothing to you you’re not sleeping i’m not sleeping in for tonight i’ve given up on trying to sleep do you want to stay up with me? drinking and thinking of ways to get out of commitments and relationships.

i made the best of mine sunbathed in a wasted landscape a seven hour drive just to see you guys you're mostly doing fine only a couple fights panic blooms in nathen’s mind as he tries to forget his previous parents one afternoon spent fishing to relieve the thoughts that trigger you you’re mostly doing fine only a couple bites the days are languid the family’s passed out the 4 pm rain is rolling in quiet resentment blows through the house close up the windows it's storming out.

about

i wrote this album because i've been stuck in gainesville all summer. most of my friends left in may and i've been waiting restlessly for the school year (and my first year of law school) to begin. these songs are not just about the heat, they're also about the humidity.

this was the only thing i finished all summer





this album comes with a lil lyrics pdf i made in google drawings

any money you decide to pay for this album will be put towards putting it on spotify and then towards making shirts

thanks to jordan—my partner—for helping me feel loved and wanted.
thanks for norman—my dog—for being my biggest fan
no thanks to audacity. the recording process was arduous and it would have been easier for me to record onto a rock

all songs were written, recorded, produced, and listened to over and over again by buggin
