Resist 02:05
Resist: V1: Boy who smells like sugar He knows how to let me down In the Time I have waited Could have wrote a book by now Pre: Does my mouth does taste sweet or sad When you take me in your hands? Do you know the effect you have on me? Chorus: But I can’t act hypnotized So I wear my blue disguise No you’re no good for me I could never say that I miss you Maybe if I tried I could resist you How come you don’t that say you miss me Do you even try to resist me Post: Earth turns My love still burns

Isle of Magic: V1: Ocean water falling waves All my friends exploring caves Giddy hippy rarest peace of mind Don’t need music , childish banter Music in your falling laughter When I see you , think of when you were five Chorus: Can we vow to someday leave LA Say the word , I’ll surely run away V2 Gabby told me look there left A Mermaid passed and now we’re blessed I tell her that the shrooms are in the car Brittany pulled me in the water Think of they’ll hold my daughter Know I’ll think of this day on and on chorus: Can we vow to someday leave LA Say the word , I’ll surely run away

Love Myself 03:49
Love Myself Some midnights I find myself in a fit of tears Supposed to be your friend But you’re not here Mmm Some April’s I think of driving in your parents car Swerving getting lost it’d set you off But we would always play the best damn songs Chorus: If I can’t love you Oh well I guess I’ll just love myself Are you working on, on yourself Do you cry at the same time of night V2: Oil and water Oil and fire Sometimes we’re too much Cocoon’d in your bones These memories I should bite my tongue I don’t know what Im saying I should stop playing now Hey love If I can’t love you Oh well I guess I’ll just love myself Are you working on, on yourself Do you cry at the same time of night If I can’t love you Oh well I guess I’ll just love myself Are you working on, on yourself Do you hold back in the same ways

V1: Little bird you’ve been so good So for long Drawing out the maps To where you belong Little bird you almost forgot his touch Changing out the bruises for people you love chorus: Oh well life happened to me Sometimes it heaven sometimes its hell Oh thinking how could this happen to me Little bird you’ll soon break out the spell V2: Little bird you almost forgot your smile Packed it up with bags you left in a pile When the time comes for your next flight Will your heart race, or close up in spite? V2: Oh well life happened to me Sometimes it heaven sometimes its hell Oh thinking how could this happen to me Little bird you’ll soon break out the spell post: And you notice This cant mean men are bad When you hold him You see him as a dad And you know that No man break you or save you But if you choose to The romantic can melt you Chorus: Oh well life happened to me Sometimes it heaven sometimes its hell Oh thinking how could this happen to me Little bird you’ll soon break out the spell

about

“Cocoon” is truly as raw as it gets. These are songs we have been holding in our hearts for years - some of which always felt better in their simplest form and most live-feeling recordings. They are songs that we wrote over multiple album processes that were always looking for a home*, and any time I’d try to record them in a more polished way- the intimacy, the ways the lyrics were sung.. it just never felt right. Sometimes the magic of a song lives primarily in its most infant form. You know - that’s usually when spirit first reaches the song. There’s something angelic and so sweet about the first iteration of a piece of music.

If you’re buying this CD- you know me. I’m tedious with my records. I slave away for years on that polish and cinematic feel on my records. Parting ways with this collection of songs was hard for me. I think the process of grief is making me less perfection-seeking; more vulnerable, more open, more in the moment. I hope these songs find you on a wintery drive home, an evening of reflection, a time In your life when you are away from the BS, and able to feel into all the empty spaces, imperfections, and tender lyrics of this little collection of songs.
