Homecoming 03:10
Fist full of paper clips floating out into space Trace a line around my hand and draw a funny face  Let’s go up on the roof and look at sky scrapers scrape At the day that’s clouding over the city scape  Don’t need to lock your door No one’s gonna steal your things Tomorrow we’ll play dress up if you want to kiss a clown  You can meet my friends if you wanna stay up late Taking pictures alone at the bar  Does this face make me look sad or just a little bit stern You can hang it on your wall and watch it while you eat Burned the toast in the morning  Spilled the juice on the counter  Wiped it up without a sound Then the kettle started whistling loud Then the kettle started whistling loud

_________ /____ ____\ //@@@\ /@@@\\ \\@@@/ \@@@// \_____ "_____/ | – | \___/ Definitely I took the photograph Mom and Dad in their dark sunglasses Where we were Memories are so touch and go It’s hard to know You You You You You were the glue held us together Nervous breakdown midnight tremor Tuck me in and make it better Again and again Nervous kid, didn’t talk very much In the back of the station wagon Stop for lunch It’s gonna be a long time Til we get where we’re going Oooo Oooo Till we get where we’re going Till we get where we’re going You were the glue held us together Nervous breakdown midnight tremor Tuck me in and make it better Again and Again Again and Again Again and Again

George 03:15
The curtains open But no one is around I take a full bow Sweat dripping down my brow I thought I saw you Lying in Elysian Park But it was way too dark To tell anything apart Just to feel something real again Makes me feel alright Make me feel ok Burry me slowly and just up to my head I want to feel like I’m dead But I wanna wake up like I said Another lap around the lake and there you are Looking crazy from afar Hands twisting Eyes like darts Just to see you again makes me nervous A second chance I take a glance Just to feel something real again Makes me feel alright Makes me feel ok

So Alive 03:19
Wanting something else is always fine It’s been on my mind Floating, spinning slowly out of control Everything feels on hold You can’t get what you want all the time I’ve never seen you look so alive So alive And every time I see your face my heart aches A vision awakes But if you wake up in a sweat I’ll be near Kissing your tears Hold me, tell me something bout yesterday Cause today is a fake Pointing to the sky framing a star It’s not bright it’s so far You can’t get what you want all the time I’ve never seen you look so alive You can’t get what you want all the time I’ve never seen you look so alive

Save Me 04:11
I’m just waking up when the sun goes down Save for a few moments I’ve lived in a dream Won’t you help me wake up I’ve been in this haze long enough Save me Save me I need someone to Save me Save me I need someone to Fresh shirt Put the coffee on Brush my teeth Leaving now from the hotel room For what’s it worth Won’t you help me tidy up Meet me at the train at 5 o’clock I’m just happy to be alive It’s not everyday you meet somebody by surprise When I met you I was a shadow of a man I’m forever indebted to you I’m feeling whole again Save me Save me I need someone to Save me Save me I need someone to Save me Save me I need someone to

The drone above The heavy breathing of a nearby pug The itchy grass The color that it stains my back I’m finding some shade Taking a break from a day that’s starting to make me feel insane What do the birds have to say A blue blue sky A cat that stutters and runs by The sound of cars The birthday party cheers from far You’re always late It doesn’t matter because so am I I don’t know how But every time you touch the clouds
7.
Something 03:26
I’m kneeling at the door, calling you The rain’s been knocking at the window too Is something burning Is that birthday cake I put the frosting on before I baked it Turning off all the lights Getting older’s not a fight to fight Was I a good baby Did I cry? Wiping off the sleep stuck to my eye We all want everything Once we’ve got something A picture wiped from my memory To get it back I’ve got to plant the seed And when it grows I’ll pluck it from the earth The smell will activate my birth One arm outside the car Driving fast, but we’re not going far Let’s go home before the sun expires I can’t talk anymore I’m so tired We all want everything Once we’ve got something
8.
Protector 03:27
Pin wheel it’s spinning But no storm has touched down so far It’s thinning The sun is peaking out It feels so warm I’m not that kid anymore It takes a while to grow out of it Healing I’m feeling better now I’ve grown Healing I’m feeling better now I’ve grown I’m not that kid anymore It takes a while to grow I’m not that kid anymore It takes a while to grow out of it

Leo 04:48
Leo moved out of town when we were young Swinging a bag of blue marbles Didn’t make sense, but we had invisible friends Touching the ground with a piece of chalk in my hand Tommy worked for the CTA Driving that white bus every single day Running around with our heads cut off And screaming until our voices were lost And I haven’t seen him since we were kids But I wonder what he’s been doing Now that we’re older But we were bold then Saw him once in the hall when we were 15 Barely looked up, but he looked so clean I was shell of a man back then Nobody told me it was okay to be open Leo how have you been since then It’s been a while since I thought of him Running around with our heads cut off And screaming until our voices were lost I wish I could’ve said something But I wasn’t feeling confident Back when we were kids Didn’t second guess Just to feel something Was to be enough What you feel is real What you feel is real What you feel is real What you feel is real What you feel is real What you feel is real What you feel is real What you feel is real

about

Gregory Uhlmann’s 'Again and Again' gingerly uncoils across nine beautifully polished LA pop guitar tracks. Gentle synth bloops and tape loop stutters, glittering vibraphone chords, baritone sax echoing Pet Sounds, soft mallets on toms, a voice mic'd closely and dryly, just above a whisper, as if not to wake a slumberer. This is a confessional, reverential, blossoming space - truths uttered and foggy memories outlined as if a hand on paper, the kinds of things you can only say near dawn in someone else's bed.
