1.
Give 03:36
I'd be lying if I said I didn't think about you. I gave and left everything. I let you take it all. I'm dead to you. "I miss you" the three words I'm used to. I let you take it all. But I'm dead to you. I don't want it back, just leave me with some dignity.
2.
Crying 03:28
I remember crying back on the steps of my front door. Nobody got along and everyone kept fighting. You came outside and promised me everything would be okay ; yet here I am back on the steps crying. I'm sick of this.
3.
Autumn 02:33
The sound of your voice is like the wind on the first day of Autumn. I have never felt so free. Stay with me.
4.
Die // Slow 03:10
I want to die slow Let the rain fall And let me rot In the ground. Don't cry You'll forget me in a year When the hole in the ground where my body lay fills, Leave and never come back. I'd hate to see you fake pain. I'd hate to see you fake it.
5.
I 04:57
Let me go ; I'm just as ugly as the other one. As the years have gone you've abandoned your own family. I haven't felt a connection since October of '10. Were just the abandoned ugly ones. I'm just as ugly.
6.
Miss 06:46
Covered in dirt. The tree still moves in the breeze. I slowly remember the pain I felt on that day. I felt alone ; I felt weak I fell ; broken and torn. I finally had the courage, but saying goodbye was the hardest I broke down I wish you were here I wish it were me I broke down I miss you.

about

Carl Gene Baltimore, Maryland

Est. December 2012


"Smith is very open about using the music as a conduit for dealing with his depression, but the gentle nature of the music and the melody coming from Smith’s voice create a healing narrative that take the ugly and force it out of the shadows. Even on the darkest days there is sunshine after the rain." ... more
