Only Ever Younger is the last song on my new album, The Shovels Beat The Sun, which was heavily influenced by both David Lynch and the Upanishads. Thought I'd make one more fan edit to celebrate its release ❤️

Lyrics:
Only ever younger than me
It was a Friday when I heard that you were gone
You had to go and finish out the week
Only ever younger than me

Only ever younger than me
Man I remember knowing you ‘fore everyone
Digging up a graveyard apple tree
Only ever younger than me

Only ever younger than me
Waterfall windows turned to diamonds with a touch
Skipping through the headlights in the street
You were only ever younger than me

Only ever younger than me
They’re making bottled lightning back where they’re from
If they like you, then you might just get a ring
Only ever younger than me

Only ever younger than me
Leaning out windows on the gutter roofs of dawn
Taking what you can while it’s for free
Only ever younger than me

Only ever younger than me
Then they launched you through the sky and toward the sun
Orbiting in space you would scream
You were only ever younger than me

Only ever younger than me
Swimming in porcelain Rose Bowl float of wonder drugs
They left you there to analyze your dreams
You were only ever younger than me

Only ever younger than me
But it’s funny how you were the older one
Maybe I can finally let you be
Only ever younger than me
