    I have made a run of 100 CDs. All the Metadata is on it, and the quality is the same as the digital download. I made neat stencils myself and burned/spray-painted each one individually, which means each one is a one of a kind! The price is five dollars. You can also pay more if you feel so inclined. I certainly would appreciate it, as I have very little money to my name! You will also need to pay for shipping... WOOOO!

lyrics

I don't know who I am but I have put that to rest. I hear they call that 'growing up'. I don't know where you are but I am heading out west. I hope to god that you're showing up like a sun with its warm and all-embracing arms, and I don't care if I'm giving up by ridding my heart of this meaningless hatred. It's like drinking a cup filled with poison and hoping that somebody else will die.

Haven't you seen a child when he falls down? He gets himself up, dusts himself off and he's gone.

"Ooooh"--that's the sound of a child who has lost his way.

I don't know who I am but I have put that to rest. I hear they call that 'growing up'. I don't know where you are but I am heading out west. I hope to god that you're showing up.

I think, all things considered, the songs I write are much more listenable than the songs I don't write.
