about

I posted on Instagram that I wanted to record some pop songs but didn't really know how to write an actual pop song, so my friend Matt reached out saying he had a track that could use some vocals. That track became "Grasshopper". Recorded these vocals around 2 and a half years ago in the summer before the pandemic hit and it came out so well, we just had to continue. This is part of an EP called "The Low and Slow Decay" that we'll be releasing later this month.

lyrics

Lead me through time from ancient days
that don’t remind
Of the grind

Chirping through blades erected by
another grave
Decayed

From this dirt
Reassert the lonely lie that we ain’t hurt
Might as well hold your tongue
From saying anything worse

Molt through life
And avoid the swarm
Terraform this land
With the drone of a coming storm

Wading through time to find
another way to die
With a sigh

Again and again fate leaves
us dry to fend for our own

From this dirt
Reassert the lonely lie that we ain’t hurt
Might as well hold your tongue
From saying anything worse

Molt through life
And avoid the swarm
Terraform this land
With the drone of a coming storm

Left to our devices we would flourish deep in the mental eye
Open up the river Nile and fill it with our alibi
As Moses sinks into a pit, cascading waves a shroud becomes
Rewrite history until it’s sure that they will never be found

It cannot be undone
Devastation has left none
It has only just begun
Shunned

It cannot be undone
Devastation has left none
It has only just begun
Shunned
