keagan some of the most honest, upfront, and real music I have ever heard. My fav of the demos has to be "Makes Like Zero Sense". Favorite track: Dead fake friends.

I left West LA when I was eighteen for the colder coast and I forgot to say bye to my brother I started crying so I sent him a text he wrote back pretty quick: I’ll see you another couple of months yeah, it kind of sucks he is the funniest guy I know. and it’s the first time I’ll have a room of my own I wasn't happy when I left all my hapa friends behind so I did my very best to write them sad songs goodbye I walked this girl home from class she said, "you didn't really have to do that" I made a best friend who made me realize I’m shorter than I think he said I use the word cool too much much more than I think he said here is the story of the girl I liked in high school I said here is my lack of drama he said here are my secrets the worst things that I’ve done in my life I said I’ve never been in a fight before; I gotta I got a lot of anger inside a narrator in my head that lies I got an oobleck heart and sometimes when my girlfriend kisses me she has to stop and ask if I'm all right? I shake my head and start to cry when is this movie over? and how did it get so late? what’s the point of all this? well I wouldn’t really know what to say what made you think that you’d find happiness here? I say I’ve had enough of this, you say that’s bullshit.

idky 03:19
I never what they meant anytime that they said they felt alive I listen to their songs on repeat living someone else's life and I never knew what they meant couldn't hear what they said couldn't feel what they felt couldn't say what they said kinda wished I was dead when they said they felt alive they felt alive and Nate says, you look a little down and I say, man, take a look around and Elise says, "you look a little glum" and I say, well, "I feel a little glum" and I want someone why so I can say, "well tbh idky but it's ok" I see them jerk the wheel back and forth and it's worth the friends we lose and the friends we choose and the voice I hear and all the fear I want someone why so I can say, "well tbh idky but it's ok."

I got a friend that fought a guy that took himself out right outside her apartment and I couldn’t sleep so I laid flat back on the carpet I wonder if I wanna hold your hand as your mom gets old and dies from something sad like being sad and it’s not her fault it’s not her fault that she’s alone and you might end up like her it’s probably not her fault but go ahead go ahead and if all the guilt’s too much then go ahead go head and if that’s what you want then go ahead go ahead go ahead and end up like her I don’t care about my friends I don’t care about this city I don’t care about my job I don’t care where I belong I don’t drink enough water and I get a lot of headaches are you breathing in the dust that sitting still just seems to make? are you breathing in all the dust through your nose on your side on the ground in the carpet making all these empty promises? breathing in all the dust through your nose on your side on the ground in the carpet making all these empty promises and I am sitting at this park I am talking to this girl I am hoping it gets dark and I am hoping that the world gets a little bit smaller and the coasts gets swallowed by the oceans and the sharks and maybe also get taller I am sorry I am lost and I don't know where I am going but I am sitting at the park and I am hoping it gets dark and we are sitting at the park we are having a great time we are hoping it gets dark and you're home won't become mine.

about

"I was born in this country and I have never very much wanted to leave." // from "Trilobites", by Breece D'J Pancake

Downloads of this EP comes with six additional demo tracks: songs in the same vein, but not quite as good, I think, as the EP itself.--but I thought you might enjoy some of them anyway.

Thank you for your support.

Special thanks goes to my mom and dad, my brothers Eric and Justin, my sister Amy, Michie, Nate, Elise, Zane, Nicko, and Matt.
