The moon is so bright it looks like a pixel Dangerous world make friends with a pistol Thaw out your mind and speak it out loud No shame in keeping from crowds Hide away from under the hushed light Crawl away from sun, like a dust mite Dig up your memories from under the earth Keep pictures of people you hurt

Liquid melting down to reveal green earth Blowing in the wind like a piece of glass Broken in the shower making sure to laugh Trying not to cry Trying not to cry Dream house burning down Whole family was inside Make a face at death Make a face at death Smoke 4 cigarettes Rip out both my eyes Mix the blood as one Mix the blood as one

Cave Dance 04:15
There's a man who dropped out of college Lives in a trailer park playing the Dreamcast Needs a tutor early in the morning Teach him maths and how to read There's a man who don't believe the dentist Shows his teeth off in a bag of Funyuns There's a man living in a trailer Wants to know what it's all about Sits at home eats broccoli every night Trying hard to get things right There's a man who dropped out of college Lives in a trailer park playing the Dreamcast

You always remind me of a cigarette on the road towards the end of time Substances in your veins that make you feel the best eventually make you die I feel like myself more when I'm drunk than when I'm sober Comfortable inside skin covered up in spots that weren't there till I got older Lying down with friends with strange colors strobing in their eyes She asks me "what color should you paint an open window?" I don't know Feel like myself more when I'm drunk than when I'm sober Comfortable inside skin covered in spots that weren't there till I got older

Uncle Jeff 02:53
My uncle Jeff told me when I would cut the grass To watch for baby birds that fell from the nest You can't spot them in between the leaves And before you knew it there's feathers in the breeze My uncle Jeff sold me my first acoustic guitar For 25 dollars, I used to keep it in my car I used to talk to him while he stroked his beard and smoked American Spirits My uncle Jeff died from cigarettes and burgers Sitting on the porch he used to be a birder My uncle Jeff left in the arms of my dad In the middle of the night he could feel it was the end My uncle Jeff

Trees clumped up like a head of broccoli Lap it up and have a lifetime a misery Steal a shovel and bury your intimacy Back in the yard Back in the yard Back in the yard Trees make up everything you wished for I'll hunt you and take your skin for my floor Steal a shovel and bury your intimacy Back in the yard Back in the yard Back in the yard

In a parking lot Yer making hot dogs for the fam' We're gonna chill out breathe some exhaust and have a good time I heard that cousin Jeffrey wants a cheese dog and not a regular hot dog What will we do with him oolala Uncle Paul comes by, he needs a Corona Light to go with his hamburger And for fuck's sake For fuck's sake where's the ketchup? These hot dogs are dry No one likes a dry hot dog Here she comes, your wife again She says "I can't believe it" "We're out of chicken breast" "Too many people ordered chicken breast" She says "That's OK, I'll have Italian Sausage." "Honey did you remember the banana peppers?" "I like my sausage with banana peppers" "Yeah"

Dart Frog 03:01
59 years since the last face was made Everyone around me is starting to look the same They got struggles I can't explain Take a hammer and a nail Make things the way you wish Don't explain how you feel to a worm on the sidewalk getting spit on by little kids Confetti falls from the balcony Name your favorite kid of the three We'll take her and polish her teeth Bright and shiny Bright and shiny Like a brand new Smart Car Like a wet mirror in the sand that you found with a metal detector 59 years since the last face was made I can't take a look at myself I don't look the same I don't look the same

Tooth Fairy 03:44
The tooth fairy takes the teeth for her garden She plants them and they grow into little children She makes them their underwear out of woven floss Then harvests their organs to feed to her dogs

End 06:18
Where can you go when everything is dead and gone? There's roses but the birds and bugs are dust The land is clean and open for the kids to toss the pigskin around Cut it all down and turn it into towns Find your solace in the woods torn down To build playgrounds and prisons now There's roses but the birds and the bugs are dust

about

SM006

This album from Aidan K features a gritty production style, and fuzzy blown out guitar. The tracks feature straight forward drums, bass, starved fuzz guitar, and electric piano in an homage to the recording style of the 1970's.
