Again, Again 01:25
I'm sorry I wasn't listening to a word you said Honestly I'm too selfish to become invested in your feelings Because I'll only be dwelling on my own You can watch me if you like? Nod my head and smile and agree Or empathise so unconvincingly I'm ignorant at best And my niceties are fraudulent It's just cyclical mess after mess I'm the first to promote mental health But I'm the last to reach out to someone close for help I can't even tell someone I'm sad That's how pathetic I am Depression is all that I've got Except my bald head I'm a freak Let me think like this for the rest of the week Repeat Repeat Repeat
2.
Tell it to another friend Are you just as dispensable to them Do you get to be so lonely Well maybe it's your fault I know that you would like to talk it through Get some closure, for me to get inside your shoes But do you really think I wanna hear what sardonic comment that you have for me? I've tried to reason but there's just no use when you get so ornery I'll move Silence permeates and that's our norm I get so bored Of you, yes you I hope that this is getting through I don't hate you I just hate your illness Does that make it okay But even if we tried to rectify I don't think that it'd make me stay I'll move
3.
A cascade of little white lies Cacophony of yes I'm alright And murmuring in my sleep You choose to be dormant in this No response to my ellipses Excusing a shared dissuade Refuse to believe in science You're leaving me here I'm crying For love If you want to be A mother to me Then why are you ashamed Just skin up top My brain is rot Come call me your mistake I've got to say I hate you I hate you In truth I feel sorry for you I can tell there's trouble in your mind too And I don't how to help

Suffocating 03:05
I have lost my mind before But hitting rock bottom feels like so much more Struggling to get out of my bed The ticking clock sends panic to my head Don't try to be my friend If you're looking to depend Leave me be to figure out How I'll ever leave this house I know that it looks like I'm running away But really I'm searching for a reason to stay I'm trying to nurse my health And keep convinced to be myself The walls are closing in Clothes up to my knees I'm drowning This room is suffocating me But I can't muster the strength to leave
5.
Sweet Song 02:35
Sing me a sweet song Make it have sweet words Stroke my head gently Whisper you love me Treat me a child Treat me a child Tell me to calm down Tell me you're here now There's nothing to cry about But if it helps to cry then let it out La la la la
6.
Drive until your feet get numb Forget the gears with a wrapped up tongue Shooting pains You don't feel the same Pick up what you made Look me in the eye Scream without a sound What's your name Cause I don't know you Do you remember me As a child As your only one As your son Do you remember me What's my name I'll hold your finger again Come touch my hairless head Come speak some sense to me I beg
7.
Iris 01:52
Well now you've gone It's been left upon my shoulders now Feels like my world is crashing down Well I guess it's fine It may dwell on my mind But I'm strong enough by now To keep my feet steady on the ground. You should know that I've grown to be proud of who I am I'm still terrified but look I made this bed all on my own I really think that I can do this alone

about

Debut EP from Jordan White, AKA Phaedra's Love. Written following the break-up of SPLITSVILLE in late 2016 and recorded on a cloudy day with Dom Wright at The Ranch Production House in Southampton in March 2017. Jordan channels JULIEN BAKER and ELLIOTT SMITH with his sweet minimalist guitar style and sometimes soft and melodic vocals, which he contrasts with aggressive and grating screams which resemble that of Jeremy Bolm from TOUCHE AMORE or other punk bands like early RAR-era AGAINST ME!
