Spiraling 02:11
You're flickering You're flickering out like a flame You had your shot But now it's all gone down the drain Spiraling down So tightly wound Into strange shapes As it gets late I exaggerate The lives we've made On and on dead and gone So you've got to let me go It's shimmering It's shimmering like your young face But youth is brief So quick release all that's fake Spiraling down So tightly wound Into strange shapes As it gets late I exaggerate The lives we've made On and on dead and gone So you've got to let me go

Never Be 03:03
You and I Will never be together You and I Will never be Sat on the fence Cried for awhile About all these let downs And unmet desires Your fire it burns Right through my heart My love's been expended I'm giving you up Sick of the times When you left me abandoned And killing this lust Has become a must The fantasy's ended You and I Will never be together You and I Will never be You and I Will never be together You and I Will never be we Took some time Out in the wild Barked up the trees I could climb as a child And always the same I'm losing the game Just a trip in your stumble You're giving this up Tired of finding me Where you expected And day turns to dusk You feel like a husk The dream's been suspended You and I will never be

Chasing It 02:35
I'm crying with the sunset Placed my love on a cheap bed I thought it'd never go to waste I'm looking at you And you're feeling it too Now great we've got that tepid taste Every time you cross my mind I end up walking circles of cruel and kind Guess it's fine And time rewinds We find ourselves tangled up in a loveless bind And I just keep chasing it away I'm higher than a kite now You're hotter than a mad cow Deep down you hate my stupid face You're turning to that lavender hue And now I'm in a wild craze All my life it's passed me by Staring down all the shadows And great divides You're the light Got too bright I'm blinded wondering if I'll make it out in time I'm crying with the sunset Placed my love on a cheap bed We thought we'd never go to waste I'm smashing through That delicate you Love hate my mind's lost in a maze

Happy as a clam I smile into the void It was the first thing I ever wanted to destroy Nothingness in Vogue My light my life has gone Into such great depths A never ending marathon When the final blow Comes down to sticks and stones Clinging on to our now weary bones Nothing left to say When all the memory grays What a waste Our lives just melt away Now, bow Feeling underwhelmed My lonely soul has died All of those heavy tears Welled up though I never cried Grinning like a fool I laugh at my demise Crushed by some deep despair The love I've come to despise When the halo glows You lose all that you know Terrified The father turned to foe Standing at the gates The heaven you create Fades to black As your hope dead deflates Now, bow

Spotty 03:21
Saturday night Left me on the bench You wrestled me into A paralytic state of indifference I'm not your man I'm not your lover Just a hole in the heart Of a sputtering out false start When there's no one left To do you wrong And you feel like You can't bare To face it all Our spotty thoughts weave on The night's seem long But I'll be right there To catch you when you fall Yesterdays fight Sent me on a blitz We just can't seem to see Each other in the other So it ends with fists You're not my friend You're not my lover Just coal in the dark Holding out for a flame To spark When there's no one left To do you wrong And you feel like You can't bare To face it all Our spotty thoughts weave on The night's seem long But I'll be right there To catch you when you fall

Last Night 03:44
In my mind There's a way we can make it There is no time In the length of our goodbyes You'll decide The ways in which I'll crumble daily This suffering's fine Til the end of my love line You wilt You were The heart of my heart Never taken for granted I'm still unloved The way you bring A light to my darkness You've given up Taken off Now I'm left empty handed Last night You changed The distance born In this cruel separation of us All my life I've waited for the answer Who'd be the one To stand by my side Now I know There's no one Out there for this fool Who chose to lose Uprooted by loves bruise You wilt You were The heart of my heart Never taken for granted I'm still unloved The way you bring A light to my darkness You've given up Taken off Now I'm left empty handed Last night I changed The distance born In this cruel separation of us

Happiness 03:54
Took a page from your book Made a paper plane That the wind took Out of my hands The death of all plans Is waking you up I'm the sheep to your wolf Bite the bullet Then I'm shook You're nodding your head Wet as the bad You pissed in your sleep Happiness Happiness is What we've made Happiness Happiness will Always fade Happiness Happiness Will never stay Happiness Happiness Is just a phase Coming over when I cook Broke my heart then The wine took All of my hope Down the death slope I'm desperate enough You're the devil With those looks No details Ever took The food that you love Death from above It all tastes of ash Happiness Happiness is What we've made Happiness Happiness will Always fade Happiness Happiness Will never stay Happiness Happiness Is just a phase

Woke Spoke 02:48
Found yourself in a hole You had dug on your own Grab the phone No one's home Empty house Got no spouse Tangled in your self doubt The answer is always Right in front of us U S U R Nothing more than dust Just Passing with the light of Daytime We play fine But we always End up the same Woke up stuck in a lull You had spoke to my soul Hard to take The feeling's fake Running low Took the blows Mangled by the words you chose The answer is always Right in front of us U S U R Nothing more than dust Just Passing with the light of Daytime We play fine But we always End up the same

Lonely Heart 04:22
Close my eyes Every time you walk by Cus it's easier If I don't see your face Again I lie awake in bed And think of space Cus it's better than Being here when you're so near To me Wish I could wake But my hearts not in this game Lonely heart You've played your part It's destiny to wait and see Loosing you Is making me Fall apart And go crazy Who am I to say It's farewell Cus I don't know If I'm supposed to go Away Never mind the time It's not here Cus when I look at you I feel no fear But love turns to hate And you left a bad taste Lonely heart You've played your part It's destiny to wait and see Loosing you Is making me Fall apart And go crazy

about

Nothingness in Vogue is a deep digital dive into my depression and struggle with nihilism induced by the chaos of being. Themes of hopeful delusion, heartbreak, loneliness, and suicide are all weaved into a play of drum machine beats and synth swirls. This album serves as a vessel for a period in my life I am trying to transcend but look back upon as a constant lesson.
