about

A raw and unvarnished recording for a raw and unvarnished song about waking up and not recognizing who you've become.

Gasoline Heart was recorded in my home studio, entirely on my own. I wanted the loneliness and desperation of the lyrics to creep into every part of the song. No digital magic was used to polish the vocals, the drums are a bit sloppy but full of emotion, and the final guitar section was just really cathartic to record.

lyrics

This is me
Constantly distracted
Glowing phones have acted
Like a social crutch 

This is me
Overly defensive
Bristling at the slightest of critiques

It never used to be this way

We could play our parts
Become shadows of who we are
Or you could come and throw a spark
On this gasoline heart

This is me
Formerly an artist
Creating light from darkness
With my best days behind

This is me
Heavily sedated
Brand new ways to medicate
And dull the rage

We could play our parts
Become shadows of who we are
Or you could come and throw a spark
On this gasoline heart

I’m Ready… I’m ready…
I’m ready to explode
