about

This song is an expression of the anxiety I've experienced in the last several months. So much has changed, and not yet for the better. The road to a brighter future is a hard one, and while I will continue to support minority rights and civil rights in general, with this song I'm choosing to help benefit the lives of underprivileged children with little to no access to artistic and musical outlets. Therefore, all proceeds will benefit Hungry For Music (hungryformusic.org), a charity organization that helps get instruments and learning opportunities into the hands of less fortunate young people.

For reference, Hungry For Music provides this general guide on the cost of instruments:

$30 - 3 Recorders
$50 - Acoustic Guitar
$75 - Electric Guitar
$100 - Djembe Drum
$150 - Flute
$175 - Violin or Viola
$200 - Clarinet
$250 - Trumpet or Trombone
$350 - Alto Sax
$500 - Cello
$1000 - 20 instruments for a community after-school program

Please donate whatever you can, with my sincerest thanks in advance.

lyrics

Spiders on the ceiling
Might as well be anything that scares me
Just as well I'm thinking and not caring
For myself

Isn't it appealing?
Might as well be nothing that I'm feeling
Gettin' round to praying but not kneeling
Quite enough

Facing down an earthling
Hard to say they're pullin' at my heartstrings
All the while a hundred thousand heartbeats
Slowin' down

Look what we created
A world where people must be separated
Planet of the worshiped and the hated
No between
