"This song is the author's way of expressing his realization that, as he grows up, he is not as immortal or important as he once thought. The meaning behind this song is from the perspective of a child growing into an adult."

got a new single out!! lyrics & credits below the cut 🖤

Don’t Wait Up

marie’s gone missing, didn’t show for her shift

left the volvo perched on a steep snowdrift

pointed due north when she blinked off the grid

and everyone’s still talkin’ ’bout what jennifer did

do you know where your mother hides the brandy?

do you know what goes on behind the trees?

do you know how to go a little crazy?

baby, please...

climb down, climb down from the window

we’re all meeting by the bend in the stream

heard the search party screaming in the shadows

baby, maybe it was just a dream

nora brought the moonlight in vermont

lila’s voice drops every time she takes a call

heard she’s going with a guy from two towns over

that’s not all, that’s not all

climb down, climb down from the rafters

and lie with me here on the ground

the dogs are circling the farmhouse now

they’re breathing down our necks, don’t make a sound

do you want for the night to last forever?

do you want to wrap yourself around the moon?

do you want to maybe run away together?

baby, soon…

marie’s gone missing, left a note on the fridge

daddy, don’t wait up for me

daddy, don’t wait up for me

daddy, don’t wait up for me

daddy, don’t wait up for me
