Keeping On
04:11

Yes, I will admit
I shall diminish
As time allows
You will not mind
Or drop behind
The receipt
The wrong of my right
Seeds the left of me
Finding doubt surreptitiously
In amber air
And ginger skies
You reach me less over time
Carry my reflections in your pocket
And leave in all directions
As you do
Leave my reservations on the table
And keep on keeping on
As you do
An ode to the lost
But not forgotten
Sweet memories
That take me there
Or anywhere
To retreat
The palm of my hand
Feeds the grief in me
Getting lost so conveniently
In amber air
And ginger skies
You reach me less over time
Soaking in in loss
And wild paging
Through remedies
That go nowhere
But I don’t care
I’ll repeat
The pawn of my eye
Breeds the least of me
Getting caught so facetiously
In amber air
And ginger skies
You reach me less over time
Carry my reflections in your pocket
And leave in all directions
As you do
Leave my reservations on the table
And keep on keeping on
As you do
Carry my reflections in your pocket
And leave in all directions
As you do
Leave my reservations on the table
And keep on keeping on
As you do

The Worst Things
03:24
|

It’s a pewter afternoon
What better time is there
To walk around the park
And stare at strangers
There’s a street artist
There’s a street artist
Sitting across
Across the pond
He’s drawing a cheap soiree
Of silky silhouettes
That slowly fade away
And swallow cigarettes
Much like I used to do
Much like I used to do
Before I became
Became eschewed
Where is my accent?
Maybe I left it in Texas
The worst things are those
That I’ll never know
Who were my friends then
And who are my friends now?
The worst things are those
That I will forgo
It’s a dreary afternoon
What better time is there
To stroll around the block
And stare at strangers
There’s a lunatic
There’s a lunatic
Sitting across
Across the street
She’s talking to herself
To remedy the pressure
She’s burning papered news
And drinking cabernet
Much like I used to do
Much like I used to do
Before I switched to..
Switched to merlot
Where is my accent?
Maybe I left it in Texas
The worst things are those
That I’ll never know
Who were my friends then
And who are my friends now?
The worst things are those
That I will forgo
Where is my accent?
Maybe I left it in Texas
The worst things are those
That I’ll never know
Who were my friends then
And who are my friends now?
The worst things are those
That I will forgo
Where is my accent?
Maybe I left it in Texas
The worst things are those
That I’ll never know
Who were my friends then
And who are my friends now?
The worst things are those
That I will forgo

Dreams

An acquired taste for being alone
And in my dreams
I toss my phone
While I revert and relapse from stolen rapture
I withdrawal
And I wrote some words to conjure and then capture
Solitude
An acquired taste for being alone
And in my dreams
I toss my phone
While I revert and relapse from stolen rapture
I withdrawal
And I wrote some words to conjure and then capture
Solitude

Swing
03:14
|

My only expectation
Is a one for the winner
My only consolation brings me back
My every floating thought has
A run through the filter
The habits of the station
I reside
I sing and swing in the key
Of an ever-changing motif
I'm super glue and chamomile
I'm Jesus Christ with prayer wheel
I drum and strum to the beat
I'm always stomping my feet
I'm nothing new and nothing old
I'm sinking through
And uncontrolled
When she talks to me
I feel she's a dream
And everyone I know
Thinks I'm crazy
While she's in my mind
And pills bring her down
Everyone I know
Sees me shaking
My clever incarnations
Are too much for the average
My many reservations bring me down
My every fleeting muse has
A run through the ringer
The libel of the unintentional
I sting and fling with the bees
That could never understand me
I'm casualty and carelessness
I'm thinly sliced with heritage
I play away with my mind
in a superficial dropsy
I'm riding on and tapping out
I'm confident and bringing doubt
When she talks to me
I feel she's a dream
And everyone I know
Thinks I'm crazy
While she's in my mind
And pills bring her down
Everyone I know
Sees me shaking
When she talks to me
I feel she's a dream
And everyone I know
Thinks I'm crazy
While she's in my mind
And pills bring her down
Everyone I know
Sees me shaking

Ocean Audra Saint Paul, Minnesota
Ocean Audra is an experimental indie-pop band fronted by producer/multi-instrumentalist Spencer Charles Langenhop. Based in Minneapolis, the members of Ocean Audra were brought together through a shared love of layered vocal harmonies, loud drums, and lyrics that provoke the desire to dance and crawl into the fetal position at the same time. ... more
