Mirrors 04:36
For far too many days I've been cleaning this mirror But I still can't see myself any clearer Scrubbing off the marks, wiping off the tears Cause I don't know if a man they'll love is someone who has fears I don't know who you want me to be I don't know They don't even know How could I expect them Everyone's too focused on getting into heaven All I want is to be a fucking man Can someone help me stop being a two-faced sham Am I part of this master plan? Can somebody help me be just a man? I wanna know where I belong I wanna know if not knowing is wrong I don't know who you want me to be I don't know

It's been years in the making But still my hands are shaking At the sound of your name I know exactly what's gotten into me A sense of greater destiny Won't you take my hand? Cause I'm finally seeing what's in front of me And this time I believe And I'm taking the chance I hope I don't compromise What we already have But I have to see Cause I don't wanna be a fool I just wanna do what's right, for tonight We'll figure it out in the morning I kept myself from you for far too long Now I know that I was wrong These feelings for you are oh so strong I'll show you where you belong Cause I don't wanna be a fool I just wanna do what's right, for tonight We'll figure it out in the morning

Seasons 03:13
I wish you could see me without having to look I wish you could speak to me without using a book Cause you were all appearances, you never gave a fuck About anything internal, I guess you never looked I roll with the tide, with the changing of the seasons If you're scared of the light, pack up your bags cause the clouds are leaving I am firm and grounded Yet fluid like the air I take in everything around me I don't care I roll with the tide, with the changing of the seasons If you're scared of the light, pack up your bags cause the clouds are leaving

Matter 03:13
It's only a matter of opinion But you don't matter at all But it's a matter of fact That our history makes me appalled It was a matter of listening Or pretending to care It was a matter of acting like your love for me was actually there Don't act like you knew this wouldn't push me up against the wall Don't act like for you I wouldn't fall way far down Into the depths of the darkest kind Down into the depths of my terrifying mind You knew this You could tell You knew this But you couldn't tell me Don't act like you knew this wouldn't push me up against the wall Don't act like for you I wouldn't fall way far down Into the depths of the darkest kind Down into the depths of my terrifying mind But you couldn't tell me

This EP never would have happened if it wasn't for a lot of influential people in my life. I am so grateful to my parents and brothers for always being supportive of anything I've done, the Baltimore music scene which showed me the most welcoming community and pushed me to write music, my friends for always giving me advice on my demos (thanks Timmy), Face Value, Carry the Banner, Chasing Morgan, Kristina, and Rusty. Finally, I'd like to thank Something More for being my big brothers and role models. I love you all, thank you for any support you've given me.
