Too late 02:45
It's too late I'm already gone There is no reason To stay and wait It's too late Time has passed us by No question on why Or what to say I've spent all this time Crafting this crime Just to find myself behind The barrel of a gun When I should have just run But, it's too late Life has passed me by No reason to cry I've earned this fate Too late All is past now No question on how Or where we'll go
2.
Come visit me at the lecture hall I will be free for 30 minutes after class is out We can meet outside the library We'll get coffee across the street Who knows what we'll talk about??? If you're busy, then just give me call We can meet later this week And I promise not to pout Come visit me before the end of Fall, 'cos I will be across the sea 'til the next semester's out I can't see Why you won't talk to me I'm not as needy as You might think
3.
I will shovel your driveway Even if it only snowed lightly Even in the thunder and lightning I know that's not likely, but It's happened before! I would shovel your driveway Even if it has to be nightly 'Cos afterwards you'd always invite me In for some coffee Or cocoa and s'mores Isn't it obvious, that I would do anything just to hang out with you? I would shovel your driveway I'd even shovel it manually So we won't waste fossil fuel energy Besides your car's buried And the gas tank is empty
4.
Trust me Nothing ever good comes from over-thinking And nothing at all comes from no thinking Finding A way in between can be a life long pursuit Leaving Before heading out on my own I'll phone everyone I know And falsely promise to write often "Cos deep within I know I am really rotten
5.
We are the cutting edge of the knife in your side We are the people dressed in black Throwing objects arbitrarily At the movie screen This is not art This is obscene This is not art This is obscene Avant-garde is easy There once was a composer who sat in a room all alone He wanted to hear a total absence of sound But all that was there was a low humming And a high-pitched ring was all that he found
6.
Reset 03:03
I feel as though I am repeating myself The sequence ebbs in the undercurrent And it rocks my boat And it pulls me underneath I think this time I have defeated myself One can only play outside for so long Before catching a cold Or falling from a tree Even the sun needs to repeat itself I can see the lawn needs reseeding The morning cold is gone, the frost is fleeing I have slept away The winter's white decay Oh I've been out too long I'm barely treading The tide is far too strong, I am regretting Drifting far from shore But I've been here before
7.
We were just kids kissing in the hall I held your books I held your hand Our parents were allies And we never once stepped out of line I made a point to purchase some topaz On our two week anniversary There was tension in my eyes I thought that one day you would Marry me But are you just a girl who happened to be here when I needed you? You didn't have to be perfect I just needed someone to hold on to I close the door and drew a portrait Made of scribbled hearts and X's I've never been good with bad news Or understood how to learn from life's lessons So it's up to the lines and loops To guide me back on course This is so selfish but it's like that When you go through your first divorce
8.
I'm nervous all the time And I don't know why But I deserve this It's too late It's always too late
9.
As I drove through time My mind became a highway The landscape was always there Even when I closed my eyes The fields flew by The mountain drew nearer As time passed the road's edge vanished Until the pavement finally succumbed The forest swallowed the off-ramps The sea absorbed the rest stops But I continued Despite my lack of visibility And in this limbo between now and never My arrival did not come My departure was non-existent I could not locate this place on a map The only mark of time Was land's reclamation And its heartbeat aligning itself With mine
10.
Not the way 01:44
This is not the way I thought would end This is not the way I thought would end This is not the way I thought would end This is not the way I thought would end This is not the way I thought would end This is not the way I thought would end This is not the way I thought would end This is not the way I thought would end

about

This album has been a long time coming.

Between holiday recording sessions, so many conference calls, and plenty of remixes, we managed to finally finish the thing. I am another you is the first project recorded from soup to nuts at the Swordpaw HQ studio space in Troy, New York. Frank Moscowitz put on the final mastering touches at Blackdog Recording Studio.

Please Enjoy!
