Written and recorded while living in a tent at The Henry Miller Memorial Library in Big Sur.

lyrics

I am face to face with my childishness
Wearing selfishness as a harness
I want to show you flowers and fill my hours with progress
I want to be a queen, refer to me as your highness.

I'm as greedy as I'm giving
Use my feelings to make a living
I've been tethered to a self-induced tension
Searching for tenderness inside my apprehension.

I am face to face
With a longing to belong to a place
The taste is familiar in an unfamiliar way
I'm chasing a current for reassurance
And I've got so much farther to go

Every second I grow older
And my bed's just getting colder
I'd lend a shoulder to any handsome soldier
Who'd stay the night and give a light to this lonesome stoner

I wanna bury my lies miles below my mattress
And then I'll build me a home out of the ashes.

I am face to face
With a longing to belong to a place
The taste is familiar in an unfamiliar way
I'm chasing a current for reassurance
And I've got so much farther to go
