    Lovely gatefold card case with CD of A Small Death. with option for signed by the artist or not.

    *A NOTE ON SHIPPING COSTS*
    I get a lot of emails about the pricey shipping costs so I just want to address it here. I'm not scamming you. These are the actual costs of the US postal service priority mail right now. Especially shipping outside of the USA, the costs are very high, I know. I wish I could do something about it to make this more accessible but I can't. I only send priority mail now instead of a cheaper media mail because I've had so many issues in the past with things getting lost or destroyed if I don't send priority mail and then I end up having to reimburse the cost of the record as well as the shipping and I've lost a lot of money that way so this is really the only option for me shipping right now unfortunately. Just know that all the shipping costs are going towards actual postage, I'm not pocketing any money beyond the cost of the item. I understand if you can't stomach the shipping cost, I don't blame you....love you anyways :)

about

Joey is a friend I’ve had for about 13 years now. He’s toured with me, produced a record for me, been a confidant at times, been a stranger at times, we’ve watched and leaned on each other through so many different stages of life. There is something really special about a friendship where you don’t have to give any background information, they already know the context that you exist in because they experienced it along with you. Most of the time, a friendship like that is great, it feels amazing to be known and understood, but, for someone like me who’s prone to nostalgia, those lugubrious thoughts of “who we once were” can’t help but creep in now and then.

lyrics

Joey, why don’t you come around and see me? Got plenty of room now that I live alone. Last time I saw you, you were walking in the meadow, your face was sweaty and your outfit was gone.

I don’t mind if you spill your wine like you used to. I know it's different but we’ll figure it out. Sometimes I feel like my memories never happened. Could you remind me, take me back for a night?

Was it ever real?
I don’t even feel like that girl anymore
Was it heavenly?
I don’t even see through those eyes anymore
A hundred small deaths, a hundred before
I am a revolving door, I am a revolving door

Joey, I’m working at a shop down on Main street. It pays the bills and keeps my head screwed on tight. But I feel astray cause we were never for staying so narrow, so straight, and unwilling to fight.

So what is time but a thief among men? Just a robber who moves on out of view? Forget the time, it’s a watery friend. It moves on and it streams as it wants to.

Joey, I need you more than ever before now. You are the gentle only key to my past. I want to reminisce, remember my springtime. I can rewind but I need you to playback.
