Comfortable

Yeah, I’m seeing ghosts out here
Doing 90 to the ocean air
Headed West, leave the desert right behind me
Headlights glare like denizens
Of small towns who like small-talkin
‘Sterra plant stays buckled in beside me
I roll my eyes at brake lights
I roll my ankles when I’m loose
I roll through every stop sign
I get too comfortable
Heavy on the pedal, turning pages, shifting gears
Sifting through the bottles while I steer
Eyes been playing tricks on me, pretending I don’t care
I’ve been stealing time just like I’m reeling in the years
I roll my eyes at brake lights
I roll my ankles when I’m loose
I roll through every stop sign
I get too comfortable
I roll my eyes at brake lights
I roll my ankles when I’m loose
I roll through every stop sign
I get too comfortable
I get too comfortable
I take it easy
Don’t worry about too much beside myself
I get too comfortable
I take it easy
Don’t worry about too much beside myself
I get too uh huh
I get too now, now
I get…

Self Sabotage
02:54
|

Things seem different
Than they did this time last year, I fear
I’m losing interest, but I know
I just get like this sometimes
Can’t fight this feeling
Ooh, too unruly, losing sleep like
What's the difference?
And I’m circling the drain
Dollar bills in the laundry
Wait, wait
Yeah, I’ve seen this one
But I’ll watch it again and again
Wait, wait
Self sabotage
Getting drunk with my friends, yeah again
Feet so swollen, stolen glances at you
And my girlfriend’s gonna be home soon
She’ll probably wanna fight my ass
She’ll probably fight yours too
I’ll introduce you to the Killer Whale
He drinks Miller Lite and he snorts alligator tails
Let’s go over to his place
He keeps gin in the freezer
Wait, wait
Yeah, I’ve seen this one
But I’ll watch it again and again
Wait, wait
Self sabotage
I’m getting drunk with my friends, yeah again
Wait, wait
Yeah, I’ve seen this one
But I’ll watch it again and again and again
Wait, wait
Self sabotage
I’m getting drunk with my friends, yeah again
Why would I change?
You know I’ve gotten so good at this
Make no mistake
I know I sound full of it
Maybe I’m full of it
Wait, wait
Yeah, I’ve seen this one
But I’ll watch it again and again
Wait, wait
Self sabotage
I’m getting drunk with my friends, yeah again
Wait, wait
Yeah, I’ve seen this one
But I’ll watch it again and again
Wait, wait
Self sabotage
I’m getting drunk with my friends, yeah again

Daydream
02:37
|

The circles under my eyes
Have been worth it these days
And I don’t mind doubling
My coffee intake
I wasn’t up drinking til a quarter past two
But I’ve been
Waking up early just to day dream about you
Having a crush at this age
It feels so immature
But here i am smiling as you walk into work
Trying to be patient
I’ve been trying to play cool
Even though I’m
Waking up early just to day dream about you
So tell me, now darling
Can I take you to dinner?
Or anything you wanna do
I can’t keep sleeping for just 4 little hours
To wake up and day dream about you
So tell me, now darling
Can I take you to dinner?
Or anything you wanna do
I can’t keep sleeping for just 4 little hours
To wake up and day dream about you
‘Less I can wake up and stay next to you

The Wake
02:13
|

There’s sharks in the water
They’re letting me down
Broke the bag with my teeth
Tore my dorsal fins out
I could dive to the basement
I could live all my days
Butterfly through the pavement
Shudder while I’m awake
Are you awake with me?
Would you walk through the wake with me?
I got salt on my tongue
Keep the tide in my lap
I’ll get pulled to the bottom
By the time I relax
Catch my breath on the altar
Moments culled from the break
Watch the roadside fall in
And wonder why I’m awake
Are you awake with me?
Would you walk through the wake with me?
Are you awake with me?
Would you walk through the wake with me?

I’m outta my head
Thinking about how we used to be
Ain’t it a shame? I want you next to me
I’m outta my mind
And if you love me like you say
Why’d you run around when I ran away?
I don’t want you to feel bad
I just want you to feel something
I’m just saying what I’m thinkin, baby
Isn’t that what you wanted?
I’m outta my brain
Wondering if we came too far
To turn back now, wherever we are
And if you walk through the back gate
Know I’mma cruise right through the front
I should’ve know this was all just one big stunt
I don’t want you to feel bad
I just want you to feel something
I’m just saying what I’m thinkin, baby
Isn’t that what you wanted?
Isn’t that just what you wanted?
If you'd ever take your own advice
If you’d just think twice
Before treating me like you do
I’m still working out a better way
Trying to say these things I’ve been dying to say
I’m confused, I’m confused, I’m confused by you
Got me talking too much
Got me telling the truth, now
Isn’t that exactly what you wanted?
Isn’t that what you
Isn’t that what you wanted, baby?
Isn’t that what you
Isn’t that what you needed, girl?
Isn’t that what you
Isn’t that what you wanted, baby?
Isn’t that what you
Isn’t that what you needed?

Brighter than casino lights
I can’t help but stare
All good things don’t have to come to an end, darling
There’s no last call around here
I’ve been overthinking, baby
About where I ought to be
California just can’t compare
You feel like Nevada to me
Colder than this time last year
You’re unpredictable too
I know the trees look beautiful now
But they don’t hold a candle to you
And I’ve been overthinking, baby
About where I ought to be
California just can’t compare
You feel like Nevada to me
I’ll keep this short and sweet my love
I know you’re on your way
Down the Truckee with a 12er for us
To drink and shoot the shit all day
And I’ve been overthinking, baby
About where I ought to be
California just can’t compare
You feel like Nevada to me
You feel Like Nevada to me, baby
You feel like Nevada to me

Alright
03:51
|

I like short haired girls who drive Subarus
I like being in relationships where I feel used
Hey, hey, is that alright?
I don’t have my shit together but I feel ok
I only lose my mind watching the Lions play
Hey, hey, is that alright?
Mistakes come easy when you’re used to being out of line
That’s why you always tease me when I slur my words
And say “I’m fine”
Hey, hey, and that’s alright
Drink a little, talk a little, lose your head
Keep those Mississippi kisses underneath your bed
Hey, hey, is that alright?
I’m not too afraid of trying, I know you’re outta my league
I’m not too ashamed of crying, my face just sprung a leak
Hey, hey is that alright?
Mistakes come easy when you’re used to being out of line
That’s why you always tease me when I slur my words
And say “I’m fine”
Hey, hey, and that’s alright
Well, I’d go back right now and do it all the same
The only thing I’d change is just about everything
Hey, hey that’s alright
You take the four wheel drive, I’ll get the radio
Let’s just cut our losses, I’ll see you out on the road
Hey, hey, is that alright?
Mistakes come easy when you’re used to being out of line
That’s why you always tease me when I slur my words
And say “I’m fine”
Hey, hey, and that’s alright
That’s alright
That’s alright

Then, Now, Always
02:43

It was like a movie
Saw you from across a crowded room
The way that you were moving
Hard to believe but even then I know
A smile like the heavens
Knew it when I met you
I found a love like all the songs say
I loved you then
I love you now
I’ll love you always
Sitting in the kitchen
All the luck I needed seemed to come my way
The coffee that you’re sippin
The way the morning sunlight hits your face
A smile like the heavens
Knew it when I met you
I found a love like all the songs say
I loved you then
I love you now
I’ll love you always
When I look into the future, baby
It’s like I’ve got no choice what to do
I wanna build my world around you
I wanna spend my life with you
‘Cause it was like a movie
Saw you from across a crowded room
The way that you were moving
It’s hard to believe but even then I know
A smile like the heavens
Knew it when I met you
I found a love like all the songs say
I loved you then
I love you now
I’ll love you always

Thursday Night

Thursday night got a little crazy
Christina by my side
Midnight, things started getting hazy
Til she set me right
That little girl’s got a big old bag
And that bag’s fun as hell
She says she don’t like cocaine
But she loves the way it smells
Friday mornin, I’m still snorin
Drunk as a hoot owl baby
Christina tears them covers off
She don’t feel like being lazy
She said have a little toot of this and honey
You’ll be feeling swell
She says she don’t like cocaine
But she loves the way it smells
Saturday coulda come and gone
I was feeling pretty rough
Sweet Christina brought me over
Bout a jar full of the stuff
I gave her 80 bucks
So I could have some for myself
She says she don’t like cocaine
But she loves the way it smells
Now I call Christina
Just about every Thursday night
But I never ask her out
I just hit the ATM
Then swing by her house
Well, a few months later I see her out
With another lucky guy
I can see he’s fading fast
She’s giving him the eye
See, that little girl’s got a big old bag
And that bag’s fun as hell
She says she don’t like cocaine
But she loves the way it sells
She says she don’t like cocaine
But she loves the way it sells

Dizzy
02:48

Bought myself a single-wide
Floor like a trampoline
Met myself a desert girl
Prettiest I ever seen
I get dizzy
I get dizzy for this girl
I’ll fall halfway
I’ll fall halfway round the world
All aboard the ghost step
Buckle in and hope it’s workin good
Where we’re going I don’t know yet
I need a beer and some sugarfoot
I get dizzy
I get dizzy for this girl
I’ll fall halfway
I’ll fall halfway round the world
What are you confessing for?
Why you always look so nice?
Put a nickel on the needle, baby
Make sure we can dance all night
I get dizzy
I get dizzy for this girl
I’ll fall halfway
I’ll fall halfway round the world

Spencer Kilpatrick Big Water, Utah
The Utah-based singer-songwriter has an amazing, even intoxicating handle on pitch-perfect period strut, and a smoky, emotion-damaged croon that accents and accentuates it perfectly. While his voice sounds like a cross-hatching of a bluesy John Mayer and Bill Withers, his solo work, which has dribbled out online in fervent spasms, has called to mind contemporaries like Amos Lee.” - Justin Vellucci ... more
