Tonight I'm having coffee for dinner and sleep for breakfast. Until I win this war inside my head, I'm avoiding my bed. I think I need a sunburn; I think I need some new skin to sleep in. Because as of late I've felt a little more restless than young. And you could say that I sit too close, to the man in my head that says "no" and advises against answering the door when opportunity knocks... but what would I even say? Would you tell him that you lost your way? Would you tell him you were too afraid? Would you make it seem like you were anything, anything but brave? The weeds that grew from the seed of doubt, swear they're only trying to keep me safe, but they're overgrown and cast a shadow and I don't need it anymore. But your moral still wavers the same, as time just chips away. So tonight I'm having coffee for dinner and sleep for breakfast, until I win this war inside my head, Im avoiding my bed.

I should tell you that I rarely speak what I meant to say. Metaphorically, lately I've been watering my grass in the rain. Astronomical neurological warfare. Too little TLC or too much sunlight, trying to cultivate a mind. I've been watching Food Network and sleeping in my clothes. Been burning down the hours driving on back-roads in suburbs. Been searching for perspective in rows of empty homes filled with irony. But its all too familiar and it makes the drive home even longer, but I'm in no shape to settle. I've been thinking that I'd be more a man if I would except the clay, because honestly I can't wish away the demons that are here to stay, because I forged the chains. I've been looking homeless and feeling like a ghost. My level of disregard for the general pageantry is killing me, and it's made people wonder what will become of me. Cause they're placing wagers inside the sewing circle, but I'm not the one to bet against. The wind's been picking up and I think that something might just be on its way out.

20 Cc's of doubt, I watch it drip as the clock runs out, because I know they can't hear me now, where I'm sleeping. "Slight of hand", says the sky to the earth again and you know you can't wait it out, the water's in the clouds. Electrified air pulling on my shirt and through my hair soon the storm will be here, but for now we float on. So what if the apocalypse is stalling? Teasing at me through the sheets. We've still got the summer evenings, we've still got the smoke in our clothes, and hope. A penny for your thoughts and a roll of quarters for your wrongs, breaking white knuckles against the wall because midnight has no friends. One more time for the sake of leaving nothing behind keep your peace of mind on the wall because good intentions go bad. (Star Wars quote...duh) So what if the apocalypse is stalling? Teasing at me through the sheets. We've still got the summer evenings, we've still got the smoke in our cloths, and hope.

I'm tired of hearing them talk. I'm tired of their words in my ears so crooked misleading. I know you never meant to hurt nobody. Nobody ever means to hurt nobody. And would you look at that! It seems I've gone and lost the path. What a clumsy bag of bones I am. And wandering worlds apart from everyone, is better than drinking alone with cheap company. I'm tired of the way that they walk, sharpening their sticks and their stones. Just brooding, misleading. I know you never meant to be somebody. We all just want to be somebody. Would you look at that! It seems I've gone and lost the path. What a clumsy bag of bones I am. And wondering worlds apart from everyone, is better than drinking alone in your company.

The rug they said would be there forever has since been pulled out from under. So cut your hair, and shave your face. To keep your decay at a glacial pace. Because I tried to cook the books to something that adds up, in the light. (Yeah there's got to be something casting these shadows) I'm not looking for the answers, just better questions. So save me the speech, because I'd rather be sleeping. So tell me are you, fuckin' with it? Make sure you find someone to take you home, god forbid you spend a night alone. (selfish animals) because there ain't no honor between you and me, (selfish animals) because you look like a thief and you act like one too, (selfish animals) yeah I'm angrier than I'm leading on, (we're just selfish animals). Coffee keeps me awake long enough for me to wish that I was sleeping. Because your body might be a temple but I can tell you mine's a casino. And I tried to cook the books to something that adds up, in the light. (Yeah there go to be something casting these shadows) I'm not looking for the answers, just better questions so save me the speech because I'd rather be sleeping.

about

Solipsism:

"Philosophy . the theory that only the self exists, or can be proved to exist."

We have found the phrase 'retrospect in 20/20' to be all to relevant recently. There is an odd sense of clarity and confusion that awkwardly co-egoist in the time directly following a big change. This record for me (Elias) was one of the most lyrically honest due to the level of introspection that was required to subdue my anxiety through song writing. These songs range from feelings of contentment to confusion and mild hysteria. This months Soul Rent was challenging musically because we have written a shitload of songs in the past 4 months so it was challenge to write instrumentals that were still fresh sounding to our ears.
We are very proud of this months S.R. and hope you enjoy it!
