Swimming pools, summer’s coming I guess so are you Water’s warm, sky is calling Like it’s almost June So you ask make a pass Boy the way you move Bite my lip, sipping hips Riding their waves through I know you want to go and call me your king Feels like I’m a cathedral when you’re on your knees Hey I ask you if you’re royalty and you Say something I cannot repeat CHORUS You don’t have to translate j’adore Je veux te vetements on my bedroom floor You hum a note and I can hear the whole score Je veux te vetements on my bedroom floor Flower petals on the front steps Carry them inside You sit down on my bed and you Make it look divine Tracing my tattoos I might have to go ink my thighs Bite my lip, got your hips Moving in my mind So thirsty in the way you kiss How bad are you willing to get for just a sip Hey I think that I forget my name Just before I memorize the way it leaves your lips CHORUS taking it as a sign You put that record on and Planning to take my time So you have to stay til dawn If you’re gonna stay tonight Just stay all summer long cause I like your Calvin Klein’s but We know where they belong Swimming in your blue vibes You look like heaven when you sing I look at the other side When you eyes take a shot at me If you’re gonna kiss my thigh If you’re gonna talk to me like that I wanna take a ride To somewhere I cannot come back from Can’t come back from you CHORUS x 2

there are butterflies everywhere my hands are running wild through your hair this is a pretty soft blue house you can find your way around if we go upstairs I say like you don't just do what you want the floor is warm enough to lie down on my shirt is over both your hands light me up like all your plans look at what we've got you are gorgeous you're just too good to be true I watch the summer come in when I come with you sitting out poolside your thighs and your pastel greens there are just some sights so bright they can't be unseen you look like a dream boy take me anywhere I want to see the world, but your eyes are looking at me here I could be your dream boy tell me where to go we see these butterflies rush back but you can take it slow you are dripping in my living room you are candy flowers about to bloom oh, give me some love your lips my favorite gum sipping on the afternoon got you in your favorite briefs got your daydream on repeat oh, even if you go home even if I wake up alone I'll remember what you said to me you are so soft all talk I thought to myself but then you're painting on me what a nice pastel I just thought oh kid you wish but your not his type but there are some sights so bright they open your eyes you look like a dream boy take me anywhere I want to see the world, but your eyes are looking at me here I could be your dream boy tell me where to go we see these butterflies rush back but you can take it slow looks like you have changed the weather lie down on the beach together I'll put you on a beat forever looks like you have changed for better you can have my dreams whenever I'll put you on a beat forever you look like a dream boy take me anywhere I want to see the world, but your eyes are looking at me here I could be your dream boy tell me where to go we see these butterflies rush back but you can take it slow ohhhh you can take it slowwwww

about

Over two years ago I began what I thought would be a ten week project, an EP with floral sounds and joy pop; I kept working on that project through my graduation, a breakup, a pandemic, two moves, through anxiety, stress, panic, and protest. Finally, it’s ready to be released.

What took so long? I re-recorded every song’s vocals at least three times, to start. I also took long long pauses from mixing and producing to help with protest organizing, to hike, to sink deeper into a depressive hole, to try to heal different parts of me that, turns out, were healed immensely more by coming back to this record.

I could probably work on this for another year or two chasing total sonic perfection, but it’s time to let it go; I’ve given a lot to this project, and now it’s time to give it to you. So here it is, the summer heartbreak EP.
