when i was 14 I was writing little poems tally marks beneath a hoodie in the summer didn't mean much, i couldnt concentrate for long sneaking the pink stuff, laptop light beneath the covers 15, doing damage to my hands in cubicles manic episodes at school snapping pens and seeing things friends on the internet, falling in love, forgetting their names When i was 16 i was cleaning my brain removing the weapon, and leaving the pain starting again, lines in the sand, forgetting the past forgetting the past forgetting the past blue uke, chordless, bungee jump into dysphoria lipstick, red blood, secret dress, pink stuff bleed black under a grey shirt, tummy wound needing a sew up blue uke, no words, i rewind until im over blue uke, chordless, bungee jump into dysphoria lipstick, red blood, secret dress, pink stuff bought 2 packs and i sat in the stall uni art centre, 18 years old no planning, just the product of the walls i was hearing voices, couldnt drink them gone shaky hands on the foil didn't take them all tally marks in the summer, 14 years old

libs with the time flies nothing ever happens progress is a slow ride, you'll fight best in the ballots cheering for the same guy, doubled for the balance respectable fascist in a vacuum, who coulda seen it coming history's no science just a moment liberation's not a fight, it's just a token, there's progress in a flag pin, poppy, preaching freedom allegiance to a nation wiping blood from off the heel can we get a little love going for the meek they need us sending bombs, scratch that, aid every week economic chokehold make the arm strong make the stars glisten, make the people sing songs make your face blue, stop your people fighting on or we'll stage another coup, put a base on every lawn gun in every face, starve a country 'cause a "dictators" putting food on every plate every kid on tik tok's got a say, freedom fighters, future CIA. libs with the time flies nothing ever happens progress is a slow ride, you'll fight best in the ballots cheering for the same guy, doubled for the balance libs with the time flies nothing ever happens progress is a slow ride, you'll fight best in the ballots cheering for the same guy, doubled for the balance but there's people on the streets doing decades in weeks doing decades in weeks, doing decades in weeks

about

Since the age of 17 I've been making music, and even earlier than that I was writing poetry on sticky notes and phone notepads and on my arms. I've been moving year to year, making new music, barely stopping to catch my breath and listen back to any of it. "nothing ever fades" is an attempt at reflection, or maybe it's just an opportunity to unbury some of those unfinished, unheard, unaddressed thoughts and beats of songs gone by; maybe it's a breath after years of running from the past; maybe it's just some songs i'll forget about in a year. Whatever it is, I'm glad I made it, because the process of constructing something new out of the dust and feedback of old music, sampled on almost every track here, was invaluable and needed. Repurposing the voice of a confused teenager, giving those songs a new future where I once didn't believe they'd ever have one. Above all, this is a project with a history and a context, and like everything else in this world, exists in relation to other things, outside of a vacuum.

Whatever it is, I hope you enjoy listening to it <3
