    One of just 1000 physical CDs pressed of my first album, She Makes Noise. Replete with references to social music websites that no longer exist! Once they're gone, I'm not pressing anymore, and this is pretty much the only collectable item that exists as far as my first album goes, so this is your chance to grab one before I'm famous (I joke...). Let me know if you'd like me to sign it for you.

lyrics

So I flee from New York City
And ponder as I pass through New Orleans
Why I still love you
What gives you any right to say you know me?
You just know I won’t leave

I pull into the station
And ask the man to punch my ticket twice
So I’ll remember
The reason why I only packed one suitcase
For Saturday’s flight

If you’re my lady of the sunset
Just call me angel of the night

I pass into the distant morning
Watch your plane ascend as I’m still
Waiting in my flat to be redeemed

I’ve given up on passing judgment
I don’t think you’ll ever trust
Enough of me to let yourself be seen

No God to justify this sunset
Just turn your back and let me bleed

You say logic is your staple
The means by which you orchestrate your life
You call it honesty
But cowardice is just a side of reason
Keep pretending you’re free

All roads converge in one direction
You can ignore the passersby
Follow your archetype’s delusion
Follow this path until you die

My flight to Tucson leaves tomorrow
Why I’m going, I don’t know
I don’t expect to find a better life

I fought and wept and strove through something
Preying on my conscious mind
I never stopped to question your advice

I’m leaving now for Arizona
Tranquil life of red Sedona
I’m guessing that the peace will pass me by

Look out on one last hazy sunset
I wish you’d tried to say goodbye
