about

The Worlds I Make is about the tension between the imagined version of yourself and the real version of yourself.

lyrics

I’m the unfortunate one
To see all these worlds both possible and unlikely.
l believe in each one
Then hold my hands to my face as they each come undone.

I’m the unfortunate one
To see all these burdens and believe I’ll carry them
Then blame everyone
For not coming to my aid, the worlds I make the things they say,
“Don’t you know
Heaven is a stone
That you throw
Down to the bottom of the pools you wish were wishing wells.”

Well who knows

All hail caesar!
I aim to be there
I cantelever
Across myself into myself
Some great deceiver
Would have me believe her
The world is a meter
On my bed and on my back

I use these worlds as revenue
I spend them on me in order to
Keep calm, cohesion, confidence
Cross myself into myself and
I hold hands with happiness
Until it holds hands with someone else
The weight of the world, consciousness
On my bed and on my back
On and on and on and back
On and on until i’m somebody else.

I can’t blame anyone
For the state I’m in i’m swimming in it/ covered in it
I will tell everyone
That the world is permanent/ definite:
Don’t you know
heaven is a stone
That you throw down to the bottom of the pools you wish were wishing wells.
