    Beautiful and limited black on black splatter tapes, made by the incredible Texas record label, BLADE RECORDS. This sister album (and also sort-of continuation of the album Purgatory) to the same year's earlier Variety Peaches attempts to grasp love and not love from heavy air stagnant in a Nissan Cube or Ohio road trip other car. Some special songs on this one. Shimmer is my favorite. Perhaps this is my most accessible and clean listen. Note: I am more than happy to sign it for you, just add a note in checkout asking me to!

Blood 01:31
For the ghost who has lost his sight He stays out and wanders all night He just wishes he could find his teeth So he can bite off what he’s meant to eat For every werewolf in the world I want to be your new moon I wish you’d never change at all I hope you never change at all I wish I never changed at all
2.
I wonder how she’s been Do you think she still Sleeps beneath the oak trees Does she still spend her free time Waiting by the sea Waiting for something She’s everything I’m not She’s everything I’ve got Beneath a light post holding rain She stands illuminated Locked herself in place with this look on her face That says that everything is gonna be okay Everything wrong can be erased by flame At night she sleeps With her tongue beneath her lips And her eyelids closed tight Not drawn back with fingertips she rises with the sun and falls when it does She’s everything I’m not She’s everything I’ve got
3.
Rain gathers on the road As I hydroplane my way home I see the sun climb up the trees I see the night fall down onto its knees and reflect on the lake and the car is off the road and all the lights are off and i still can’t make out the stars for the blood thats in my eyes I can make out the sunrise In the pasture I hear my mother With a voice like an angel I don’t want nothing Other than what I’ve got I want to grow old In my parents home
4.
The shadows talk My closet knows how to whisper I hear your call, Just know that I won’t answer God I’m afraid I’ll go out like this I’m afraid I’ll go out like this Take off your shoes Take off your skirt if you want to Let’s see what fits Into the dumb space between our lips God damn I can’t love like this My grandfather Gave me his alcoholism And my blue love Gave me the power To not give a fuck God I know I’ll go out like this God I know I’ll go out like this

Shimmer 02:04
Will you close your eyes When you ask her how she feels Shimmer in the light when you run Through the baseball field Shimmer in the light When the sprinklers smell like shit Shimmer in the light You didn’t earn happiness like this You know you didn’t Will I close my eyes When she curls around me Shimmer in the light When the light post gleams Bathe in the rain that the oaks bring down Please close your eyes When you see me drown Become something lost
6.
Open up your window so The menthol smoke can escape Into the trees Leave me curled around your legs Leave me curled around your knees I named a name to every freckle you were gave I named a name to every scar you were gave Now you up and float away Now you disappear into the grey lakeside I break down and pray An escapable premature permadeath Inescapable premature permadeath Remember when we were just two kids in love Open up your window So the rainfall can get your pillows wet open up your window

Blood (II) 02:05
The ghost that is swallowing it’s teeth They digest and fall on me I don’t wanna be here anymore I only call you when I’m drunk I don’t even love you when I’m not The ghost that is swallowing it’s tongue It digests and weighs on everyone We don’t wanna be your stomach acid For every werewolf in the world I want to be your full moon I want to see the viscous In your change I want to see you change In every way
8.
Sharks 03:06
If you find the sharks teeth I’ll find the sea shells If you find the pine trees I’ll plant the daffodils The way that your hair Steals the light The way that your hands Would fit in mine But you’re a stranger Everyone’s stranger So let’s get fucked Get this tinder account blowing up Let’s get our teeth bared Become the space that was never there Everyone I know Is alone Everyone I love Has outgrown me Cuz everyone’s a stranger This world is a stranger I wanna be a memory I wanna be a falling tree I wanna be love But that’s a paralyzing death The way that you disperse into sound The way we transform into the ground

Summerland 03:01
I saw you in my dream last night You looked like just like what I remembered you looking like Except your eyes When I looked into them I saw something far From heaven All that was god drained out All that was god drained out I saw you in my dream last night You looked like just like what I remembered you looking like Except your eyes Once a jewel Once a swimming pool Now something better off closed All that was god drained out All that was god drained out

I can’t see nothing anymore I’m getting used to getting blind I used to be, seeing too much all the time But the ocean rushes wide And I’m drunk all the time And I don’t think that’s alright Change Change, had better come I wrote songs in & out of love About loving or being loved Or getting - by a stranger without a name I don’t know what you mean to me I know you mean something you used to say we Would get there eventually But we never got there as far as I can see i just wish that I deserved you you’re my favorite thing to see standing before the mountain range camping out in the rain knee deep in ocean’s spray i know i don’t do much right but i swear i will love you all my life You were the first thing that I loved & You will be the last as I go out

Funeral Home 01:18
Funeral home Funeral home Goin' to the funeral home Got me a coffin Shiny and black I'm goin' to the funeral And I'm never comin' back

about

Written in & out of love & between June & August 2018.
This is the last WWGTE album, supposed to feel like some kind of resolution. In spirit this is a continuation of the "Purgatory" album.
I love everyone I've ever loved, I hope you are all doing okay. Thank you for the attention. Peace & love always, me.

released August 17, 2018

Funeral Home is a cover of Funeral Home by Daniel Johnston. The king.
All other songs written & recorded by Morgan Motes, in my bedroom, in the hot, wet and despicable summer of 2018.
Any pity pays go towards affording my new big boy life in the city.
Thank you all.
