Emily 03:18
Don’t you want to go to sleep Why do you want to talk with me A barbecue An end of year party I saw the writing on your wall Jack’s Mannequin, I got it all And surveys teasing crushes convey My express intent to fall Won’t you I fight the urge to tell you more We’ve never been this way before Dreaming about thunderstorms Let’s get caught in the rain The little things you understand I’d say it’s great, you’d say it’s grand Buddy icons, status updates, Different writing, reads the same No goodbyes are a setup I know no goodbyes are a setup You said no goodbyes thats a setup For when you mean it And I’ll try not to dwell on things I like you and that’s it And you can repeat til it stings I like you and that’s it Reasonable jealousy Let’s stop and think this through Then pretend it doesn’t matter That he likes you too It’s grand, you say But I can’t stay So find a way To make it make sense It’s grand you say Again, today Let’s find a way To make it make sense It’s grand, you say But I can’t stay So find a way To make it make sense And I’m thinking ‘bout what Sarah said that night when we were kids How letting go is giving up I'm sorry but I did.

Don’t you want to go to sleep Why do you want to talk with me A barbecue An end of year party I saw the writing on her wall Mixtape, Dark Blue, got it all And surveys teasing crushes convey My express intent to fall Won’t you No goodbyes are a setup I know no goodbyes are a setup You said no goodbyes thats a setup For when you mean it I fight the urge to tell you more We’ve both been down that road before Dreaming about thunderstorms Let’s get drunk in the rain The little things you understand The confessions of contraband Buddy icons, status updates Fake it 'til we’re not in pain No goodbyes are a setup I know no goodbyes are a setup You said no goodbyes thats a setup For the day you mean it No goodbyes are a setup I know no goodbyes are a setup You said no goodbyes thats a setup For the day you mean it And Kelly took photographs, memories linger When we formed a star with the tips of our fingers I’m caught in the act And I don’t care who’s looking The pressures of love and a college recruiter The sounds of her playlist and this old computer Find my hand in the crowd Make our way to the roof Where the stars don’t need shaping And I don’t need proof No goodbyes are a setup I know no goodbyes are a setup You said no goodbyes thats a setup For the day you mean it And I’m thinking ‘bout what Sarah said that night when we were kids How letting go is giving up I’m glad I never did.

about

These two tracks draw inspiration directly from the indie game "Emily is Away <3" by Kyle Seeley. This nostalgia-inducing game allows you to navigate an interactive narrative through dialogue choices, centered primarily around your relationship to the characters Emily or Evelyn. I wrote these songs to be largely the same in melody and structure, with slight lyrical and stylistic differences to reflect the differences in the gameplay that occur depending which girl you focus on. Both songs are stuffed with direct references to the game's story and dialogue, so if you'd like to dive deeper, you can play the game here!
