about

This is my favorite track from my forthcoming EP, sexy as loss (out everywhere March 3, 2023).

Thanks for listening :)

lyrics

I have to learn in my body
How to attach and name where I’m at
In dimensions of mental and physical space I hardly know how to name

I lost my love, I lost half myself
I tried to pick up the pieces, see someone else
But there are patterns at work I can hardly control
It’s all here right now, the new with the old
Can I face it, can I begin again, can I come to right where I am
Ooo

All I have to do now
All I have to do
All I have to do now
All I have to do

Is just learn the next part
Just learn the next part
To send me closer to
My own voice

I have to learn like this
My gay hand on his chest
I know this brings me closer to wilderness
Only the mountain has lived long enough to listen
I want to listen like the mountain to the true cry of the wolf
Ooo ooo

All I have to do now
All I have to do
All I have to do now
All I have to do

Is just learn the next part
Just learn the next part
To send me closer to
My own voice

My own voice
My own voice
My own my own my own my
Oooo ooo
My oooo oooo
