Japanese Beetle 04:01
lyrics

The soles of my feet brought me here Into the trees, into the bramble I think out here I'll find my home Under the leaves Out here where the soil is cool, By the breeze, I will feel cradled Reborn all alone I'll make friends with the insects Oh, to leave myself behind Shed all my earthly convictions Like the vines, So tall I will grow I'll see you in time, My sweet verdant heart Regaled in the lushest of leaves When these old bones restart

lyrics

Kept my eyes down low, Let my feet move almost as quick as my thoughts Don't wanna talk today Got a boy on my mind, I don't think he knows I exist, I'm okay with keeping it that way Looking out from the inside Making room where there wasn't any I just wanna be free Making room where there wasn't any Looking out from the inside Oh I just wanna be free Making room where there wasn't any Looking out from the inside Oh I just wanna be free (Jeffrey Dahmer) "That's how I saw it, I, uh, sort of, uh, lived in my own fantasy world when things got too heated...and I carried that over for years, I guess" Oh every day I see him run by, Can't help but to think he should be mine Oh who am I to think this? (Jeffery Dahmer) "It was just, uh, just my own little world where I had control..."

I Will Dream of All the Little Things 02:18
lyrics
buy track
Lazy days and murmuring trees Branches bow with the gentle breeze Curled toes and anxieties Blurred lines and the humming city Oh, His quiet breaths being carried by the wind Until I am whole, I will pretend I will dream of all the little things And this big world of which I'm still learning

Carbon Monoxide 03:54
lyrics

I can't believe I almost escaped Oh, the place that I believed was a prison, Was always a verdant heaven Oh I trapped myself in the dark, Never again, Never again Surrounded by the light, I can't shake the feeling That I feel like a singularity

Sidewalks 01:20
lyrics
buy track
If clouds had arms, Do you think they'd hold you? At least if they wanted to It's a certain kind of trust Built on diamonds, built on dust Well the answer might be no But I never hit the ground I got wings from weariness Love can be letting go Trimming dead leaves off of houseplants Or just opening the blinds and seeing something new I saw the trees and felt the breeze And the sidewalk walking with me And I kissed it gently with my shoes

I'm More Afraid of the Dark Than I Have Ever Been 02:48
lyrics
buy track
Oh my love, The feeling of your fingers is still imprinted onto mine And I still feel your smile when I close my eyes But I'm trying not to And my body aches everywhere My chest feels like it's burning And maybe it's 'cause I been smokin' too many cigarettes Committing arson to my temple And I wonder if you're having fun (fuck) I truly hope you are 'Cause I want you to be happy But I'm more afraid of the dark than I have ever been 'Cause you'd fight the monsters under our bed And I guess I just miss you, I guess I just miss you (heaviest music ya girl ever did write)

The Hitchhiker 01:32
lyrics
buy track
A dark deserted road, A disheveled body save for the hope A thumb in the air Stop the car Is this it? This is it. I want that hope, I want it bad I want that hope, I want it bad And you were the jogger, This I know, The hitcher or the driver am I? I think I was both, And here I go, I think I was both, And here I go.

about

Sometimes it's really easy to want to escape from everything when being a person feels too difficult, and we find places of solace in our heads and hearts.
Serial killer, Jeffrey Dahmer had a place he would escape to a place in his imagination as an adolescent when his home life started deteriorating; he called it Infinityland.
I started this album in May of 2017 as an exploration of spooky sounds and a fascination of true crime, but as the album progressed, facets of my personal life began to shatter. Ironically Infinityland really did become my place of escape.
Explored through soundscapes and raw emotion, I found myself vulnerable. I set out to discover what it means to me to escape, and later to return.

Notes about "The Jogger" and "The Hitchhiker": Young Jeffrey Dahmer saw a man jogging every day through a park, and fantasized for months about making him his first victim. The day Jeff decided to go through with his intentions, the jogger didn't run by, and he never saw him again. The hitchhiker was Jeff's first victim.

(I shouldn't have to say this but I'm going to anyway: I do not condone the actions of murderers, and could never even hurt a bug y'all.)
