about

[Loners] is not an actual official album! Sorry to yell, but want to make sure you understand (and as we all know, the best way to make sure your message is understood is to scream at the top of your lungs). This is a place for new tracks without homes. Some of them may spin off into collections, or albums, or whatever I want, but for now they are here. It's like purgatory for songs. Or a weird singles bar where anything goes. Or the basement of a inventor's laboratory.

This is the only place you can get these songs right now... not on iTunes, Spotify, or anything like that. If they become part of a larger thing, they'll make that move.

I make no promises about what it'll be like in here other than that new music will come and go. It might get weird. Who knows? It's all in the name of making more good music, faster. Fewer droughts!

As always, if you love this music and want to ensure new Absofacto tracks are released as quickly as possible, consider paying for it. Thanks!

Track Name: If You Want
If you want to walk away, then you can
and if you want to take your time, then you can
but if you want my advice, you should stick it out for a while
You should know by now, we can work it out if we try

If you want to speak your mind, then you can
and if you want to speak mine, then you can
and if you want my advice,
I don't know why you would,
but in case you want it it's all yours,
but what do I know anyhow?

If you want to go today, then you can
or if you'd rather just stay, then you can
but if you want my advice, you should stick it out for a while
I think a good thing's coming
(although I could be wrong by a mile)

If you want a new world, go build one
and if you want some more time, just take some
if you don't want me anymore
I guess that that's okay
I don't know what I'll do
but I'll be glad for you (in a way)

If you want a new life, just make one
and if you want some new love, go find some
If you don't want me anymore
I guess that that's okay
I might bug out,
but I'll get over it in a number of days
(if I can at all)
Track Name: Lies
There's a funny thing that happens to me
every time it rains outside.
I almost hesitate to tell you.
I'm afraid you won't believe me at all…

because I used to lie all of the time
I know that you know that
but I've drawn the line,
I'm not making up any new lies.
I'm just maintaining the old ones...

Tiny gods, invisible to any instrument you know.
Too small to hold, and truth be told
they're impossible to either prove or disprove.

because I used to lie all of the time
I know that you know that,
but I've drawn a new lie line.
Yeah, I've drawn the line
It's a writhing kind,
but I still try and hold a couple toes at the edge

There's a funny thing that happens to me
every time it rains outside
I see 'em standing there...

They walk out of the rain
Who's that? What's this?
Nobody but me even knows that they exist
They only ever say, with tongues like knives,
"Nobody but you even knows we are alive."
