CO2

(Ken Latulippe)

I like a lot of alone time, especially when I don't particularly care for the people around me. When I wrote this, I was on SSRIs and couldn't feel much of anything. That sort of emptiness and "everyone leave me alone" mindset is what brought this song about.

[VERSE 1] I don’t mean to be rude, but I don’t really care People talk, but it’s only hot air I Can't hear, speak, think or share Being present is really fucking rare [CHORUS] I think I faded to grey I just want to be alone I just want some quiet on my own I just want to feel my blood I just want to exist all locked up, with me I am my own best company [VERSE 2] Dissipating, I blink and i’m gone CO2 dissolving, won’t be long My own voice sounds far away Can’t tell the difference between the days “Who are you again?” I ask you “Who are you again?” I ask the mirror too I’m flying up in smoke But I can’t see the flame Coming back down was never really the aim But fuck it, I'm back As back as I can be fuck it, I'm back here we go again, one, two, three… [PRE CHORUS] I think I faded to grey [CHORUS] I just want to be alone I just want some quiet on my own I just want to feel my blood I just want to exist all locked up, with me I am my own best company [BRIDGE] X XXXXX XXXXX XXXXXXXXX XXX XXXXXX XXXXX XXXX X XXXXX XXXXX XXXXXXXX XXX XXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XX XX X XXXXX XXXXX XXXXXXXXX XXXXX X XXXXX XXXXX XXXXXXXXX XXXXXXX X XXXXX XXXXX XXX XX XXXXX XXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXX XX XXXXXX XXXX XX XX XXXXX XXXX XXXXXXX X XXXXX X XXXXX XX XXXX XXXXXXXX X XXXX XXXX XX XX XXXXX X XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXX XX XX XXX X XXXX XXXX XX XXXX XX XXXXX X XXXX XXXX XX XXXXX XXX XXXXXX XXX XXXX XX X XX XX XXX XXXX XXXXXXX XXXX XX XX X XX XX XXX XXXX XXXXXXX XXXX XX XX

No One, Really

By Ken Latulippe


When you move away from home, it can get really, really lonely, especially when the people you cared about have long since left you behind. It makes everything feel pointless- it even makes being sad over that pointless feeling feel pointless. Regardless, something had to be done with the feeling, so that's what brought this song about.

My Hands

By Ken Latulippe


I associate hands with "doing." There's nothing you can really "do" about heartbreak, there's no actionable solution for that pain. Your hands can't protect you, but they can do a whole lot of other (probably detrimental) things to cope!

Misunderstood

By Howard Aronson


This lyric is about my struggles with ADHD. It's something I've had since I was diagnosed at 3 years old. I've been on and off medication for it both legally and with cocaine if you want to call that medication, illegally. ADHD is very challenging to live with. It affects your everyday life, you're interpersonal relationships, and your ability to focus, and think before you act. But there's so many good things about being ADHD. Most people with ADHD are very creative and can be very successful, such as Einstein. If you have the ability to hyperfocus on positive things instead of negative things you could turn your ADHD into an asset. For me it's been bittersweet, as I've used my ADHD to be successful, but also to have it play a part in my downfall. I hope you like this lyric.
