    hi. welcome to the untitled spirit waves mixtape. it actually does have a title, but that title is "untitled", because i have a very unoriginal sense of humor. anyway, you're basically encouraged to call this album whatever you want. call it "bob", i don't care. other funny title suggestions were the thinking emoji and "good ol johnnie tomokers". it's made up of the past few months worth of songs, mostly little sonic experiments and such that i still really enjoy listening to but don't think quite make the cut for what the next major spirit waves release should be.

    a lot of these songs were written impulsively after various mundane events in my life, and didn't really have time to be practiced and built upon and to mature over time like most of the stuff that ends up on my major LPs. i find a lot of beauty in their spontaneous nature, and i hope you will too. this spontaneousness has always been a key
    component of what spirit waves is, and i'm glad that i was able to find a good balance between improvisation and quickly written songs in the production of this rekkid.

    there are so many people i want to thank, but i'm gonna refrain from listing names and just say that if you're anyone who's been in my life in the past few months as i worked on these tracks (and many others!), i love and appreciate and thank you from the bottom
    of my heart. to everyone who's come out to shows or listened to my music or anything really: thank you so much. thanks to the one or two haters out there, even! you're only motivation! i'm so excited for you to hear the new album whenever it's finished, and i hope this will tide y'all over for now. :)

    no ETA on the new album, btw. there may end up being another mixtape or two on the road to it. i want to make sure it's something really special, worthy of sitting up there with she made me want to vanish, NO HOME, and impossible virtue. <3

    thanks once again for the support, and i'll absolutely see you again later this year. :V

evil tricks 01:58
my friends all say i've been insufferable since i met you and i mean it's all true i'm so in love with you and every little thing you do every breath you take you turn down the stereo and we make a lil housequake if you were to ghost on me i don't know what i'd do i thought i was cool chillin with some freaky bitches but i was really the bitch in the relationship and now i love it oh god i miss you rolling things back to how they were at the start my surfer girl it should have been you now i feel so lost and i don't know what to do but i guess in the end it's all ashes anyway spiraling out of control the things our brains can do to hurt us evil tricks i keep on finding myself getting closer to you and i know you do too but darling, my throat won't say the words turn that romantic sub into full text before you end up with a list full of regrets it ain't over til its over girl i love you

fly fishing 01:20
and when the line is cast that's the moment when you'll come to in your bed she cocks the trigger there it goes explodes what's the trajectory of a travelling piece of lead so many dreams and things that you wanted to do they're still ringing in your head born into a bastard world a cruel cruel world that has always wanted you dead but don't give up i still believe in you no don't give up you'll see the light someday darling baby

the day the milk expired that was the day i ran away there's no point sticking around if no one wants you to stay we go through so many upsets in futile attempts to find our way knowing that our purpose is to die beaten in a hanging cage but still refusing to give up i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i refuse to die i r

girl story 2 02:40
i don't wanna break the good times but i've found perfection in you the way you laugh the way you taunt you open wounds then you sew em up i'm not afraid until you go and leave me and then i stay in bed and i still feel you and it comforts me and i go to sleep and you still appear in my dreams you know that's very, very, very, very rude.

i'm going north for the winter where everything gets harder i last longer breathing much harder falling for you feeling you up in your pickup truck such a familiar sight my blue haired angel she waits for me only for me "don't you tell a soul" oh don't you worry i'll keep it locked up tight but i can't help that i blush so much red and blue swimming together it reminds me of you everything everywhere that i look reminds me of you something gives way promise me you won't be mad okay? promise me you won't be mad okay okay promise me everything's okay okay okay can't let it out just wanna let it out i see one. true. escape. (lpc sample: uh, there IS something standing in my way) i see something standing in the way promise me you won't be mad kay promise me you won't be mad okay okay okay breathing slows the world crawls i glance up and hope my last sight will be you but all i see is drywall and the same four walls i always see fuck, fuck! promise me you won't be mad, kay? promise me you won't be mad okay okay kay okay

you make me sick as a dog but i still adore you runnin round i'm goin crazy but yet i still ignore you unstable let's keep steady i can tell i can tell when you're ready if there's any places that you wanted to go to well now here's your chance start by removing me from your lips whisper a word that breeds silence and i can't help but think now i know you better i don't know why i ever expected better from anyone you're comfort food to me and you know i'm no good for you (so good for you) and you you've never helped me to improve and now he's got you trapped and you cant move spin the globe and wait it out watch the pieces come together and shout but it's too late too late too late i'm gone gone gone gone gone gone gone gone gone you won't miss me so step one: remove me from your list use a word that breaches contract silence and i can't help but think no i can't help but think i know you better i don't know i don't know why i ever expected better from anyone jam it out now jam it out now jam it the fuck out let it go let it go now let it go go go go go go go go go woah woah woah let it go now
