reach into yesterday kissing sun sick eyes returning to blood stained teeth see the dark patches surrounding my eyelids and see the cracks in your pirouettes one day you’ll meet someone like me one day i could use someone like you every stranger makes me feel safer and every person seems more beautiful i’ll move in close and smell flowers blooming then the sirens stopped and the room stopped moving i heard my name being loved i heard my name being lost

Olde English 02:14
me and u in this empty room i’ll kiss your cheek and leave a bruise avert your haze from the solstice if u get cold, we’ll layer up soon i send u a happy new year put bottles on the wall lost in the sparks wishful thoughts won't fall its coming our way through the dark we won’t get lost outside again kiss me sweet and kiss me fast i should have made this moment last and i can’t be what u need, i am stuck in a dream drowning in transparency time drags u away from me i’ll call u when i grow my hair we’ll both match at the shoulders i hope u find someone for u just know i want you too kiss your cheek, tattoo a bruise

Clementine 03:18
christ died for us and our homes broke bread so we won’t die alone praying at the dinner table call my name cause i’m not able to finish growing up we're growing up and we’re feeling cuts and we're filling cups mother i’m not doing well call it early sleep on window sill i'll sleep early in cigarette smell i wanna go wherever clementine goes i'll put my head in the oven cause darkness walks the earth turn my head and walk into hell move away from my fathers curse and i hate to say i love you but goddamn you know its true and i hate to say i love you but you know that i do i wanna go wherever clementine goes

Haunt 02:40
you’ll say it first and i’ll say it last in the backseat you’ll touch yourself in the kitchen there’s dinner for you i’ll take some pills and puke for you soon you say u don’t belong on the sofa where we fucked when we were young lying on the seat of your best friends car wondering how to tell them you’re in love but it won’t be nice in the backyard there’s two graves for ourselves listen to the gun listen to the gun i watch video drugs i watch video drugs getting out of bed is the hardest part you only listen to the radio keep me out of your prayers i don’t belong there keep me out of your prayers i don’t belong there in a shower for two in the other room there’s a shower for you

constance talks she says to me "doctors pills fill my body" drink the bleach drink it quickly smell the festival of lily's satans love how it fills me constance gets high in her bed hides her knives in her head she used to frown when she bled now she says god is dead i should be with her instead my angels gone crazy wearing crowns with thorny fires constance is becoming undone blue lip steering wheel going numb remember when she used to have fun a bible signed with her blood constance is in need of a friend not in her head laughing at her beliefs she'll never wear the clothes she buys she's gonna burn this fucking church down to the ground under the loving gaze of christ just like the day of her birth born in death what was life worth i wanna be the humming bird outside your window at night when you're sad i'll lull you deep death is just another sleep death is just another sleep

Untitled 01 03:11
saw you on the subway corner you were wearing your new sundress on your way to catch a fella dressed to the nines in his sunday best and i wish things were simple waking up my eyes wrinkled smelling coffee on your desk youre sitting in the kitchen with a book against your chest holdens holding onto something, something fake goddamn give it a rest, can't seem to catch a break and i, i'm a simple man i'm a simple man i'll lay your funeral bed i'll stay, i'll lay shoot me out of the circus your hair in braids deceive us she fell in love with the gun so i'll walk the night alone i'll go to the street that you own where the cul de sac becomes a home drive as fast as you can they're shooting to kill

VCR Reunion 03:37
don't look at me that way since you figured me out feel the truth down your spine that fear you're talking about watch the ocean become a culdesac clove in between red lips watch you arch your back see the ceiling sunlight swim it won't happen again i swear it won't again and i know you're mad and i want to go to bed but you're screaming and i'm dreaming and its happening again don't touch me when transparent pieces come tough you're on your swing i'm sniffing glue for a touch and father said i was raised in his hands and mama said im the lucky one till the very end see the ceiling sunlight swim clouded in mystery isabel talked about that girl who hanged herself from oak trees from her blonde curls imagine my surprise if i glanced out my window to see her neck snap some trees don't stand long but this was stronger then that and i know you have my friends and i know your knees are weak i don't wanna make amends i just wanna hear u speak

about

“then the sirens stopped and the room stopped moving”

On his second album with Drunk With Love Records, Devon Mello builds up a sturdy foundation of simple arrangements and lo-fi recordings, combining detailed lyricism with pounding piano and guitar. Preaching like a deranged Randy Newman at a mass, the music brings your mind to a hush to direct your attention to new places you’ve never been afraid of before.
