The CD turns over in my hands On the backside, I see my reflection His lips read the same words, “You can’t be different, you can’t escape me,” It’s not logical to deem Where the grass is green When the scene is out of view My reflection tries to climb Barricades and confines Not because it likes to Self-aware Reflections stare And lips read different words, “You’ll never be the same. Forever fail trying to imitate.” Keep spinning like a CD Try to keep from turning green Like a tree in full bloom Planned attempts to try and climb Barricades and confines Because I want to

Crawl Space 03:33
God is an expletive I'm keeping it indoors I wish I could get caught up in Something I could explore Stillness won't let me go If you don't let me know, I'll start choking Everywhere I look You've already been Drained from the bottom Through the cracks in the ceiling I am perspiration There was water in the basement

Stuck sitting and waiting Pretty soon, it’ll all be out of stock I was told, “If nothing is sold, All the fruit will start to rot,” The apple didn’t fall far, But kept rolling I kept pulling down My sleeves I thought I’d freeze Under the shade of the tree It was with me all along In my palm Nothing ever went wrong And I was scared ‘Cause in a crowd I thought I’d get lost The real world is hard to face Hard to take I can’t fake My way forever I used to keep track of my height And the sizes of my shoes Feet following footsteps My big brother knew what to do Holding until my hands are sore Granted, I’ve taken things for Trophy shelves When the dust settled down It was too hard to ignore It was with me all along In my palm Nothing ever went wrong And I was scared ‘Cause in a crowd I thought I’d get lost The real world is hard to face Hard to take I can’t fake My way forever It was with me all along Now it’s gone And everything went wrong But I’m alive I’m still here Stand up or submit to Everything there is to fear

Let me think of a metaphor For not letting go Mouth sewn shut, tied to a pole Eyes pecked out, a swinging scarecrow It’s a long wait So many people in line To travel far away And never look behind again Travel far away And never look behind again Or see some things that should’ve never been seen Travel far away And make friends with all the shapes Of the shadows that follow you around It’s a heavy weight to carry all night long And if it falls, it’ll break the ground Maybe one day my fingers will not be chewed to the bone And maybe then it will be easier To put down the phone

Sentient Moss Wall Township, New Jersey

Sentient Moss is an alternative rock band from Wall, NJ. The quartet manages to blend jagged, odd-timed instrumental passages with catchy, anthemic choruses that come together to create a distinctive sound that refuses to commit to a singular genre.
