Time has been a colander holding our love Draining out the worst of you, dolling you up Like a spell you fall under, memory dust coats me in a mythical version of us It’s inviting, I decline because I know that’s not really how it was My baby’s by the banister; he don’t give a damn Tuning out the ghost of you with bargain rattan Labeling the canisters, warming the pan Here I land reluctantly, needing a man What’s the word to want to be alone? Stick and poke removal of a bone Rid me of needing, turn me into honeycomb, I'm a child in a body fully grown

i’m prepared to be bored dress me up like barbie there’s no cave to explore no fake plastic army i will always magnetize my head to the hay i’m prepared to be bored throw myself a party setting sail from the mouth of a frozen river see the moon coming out and i start to shiver suddenly the ocean calls my name out loud a voice repeating it doesn’t make sense it doesn’t make sense do you recognize your weary eyes magnified in the mirror making it clearer make a sacrifice tell a lie say it twice in my ears holding you nearer i’m prepared to be sore screaming giddy nonsense there’s no truth anymore only doomer content living on the timeline, give me something to loathe i’m prepared to be bored what a novel concept

What do I miss? Walking home and you ask me what can I hold. I say thank you but I’m good, so you hold my hand until we get home. It’s familiar, it’s routine, but it’s only for you and me. Good looks and isolation, humor and manipulation Charm and desperation, stupid infatuation. This is not a love worth pining for, I wanted strength you wanted malleable. Between you and your platitudes and me and my attitude the disparities finally caught up with us. It could be worse, but it hurts. What once was our thing is now yours and hers. I feel stupid, I believed someone would love me wholeheartedly. Someday I hope you love someone as much as you thought you loved me. All of the time wasted on banal conversation, the dramatic negotiations and empty accusations. No longer complacent in this situation with all your expectations sorry if I leave before the standing ovation.

tiny left the complex feeling small it wouldn’t be the first time he said fuck it all so he gasses up the car and hits the road raising up a flagpole flying calico he’s always on the move always trailing something new and indestructible but keeps coming out so cut down so tiny found himself outside des moines carving little sigils in the celluloid and looking at the buntings in the brush spends his whole life running, always runner up but he’s always on the move always trailing something new and indestructible but he keeps ending up so cut down

Confiding I found pleasure I think in its way that it’s meant to be The keeper of this body Once I knew them it was often me tonight I hope we’re lost in dance utopia in a trance blueprint of liberation sweat and step repetition We wake my body is a song I don’t even notice the pulsing in my head and my latent, dancing stomach welcome mutual building harmonies and a lean towards dissonance What of pause and what of pulse? I’d like to wield that the most. Residing I found treasure I don’t need to know what they mean to me Prescribed in them a value Something not far from arbitrary Tonight I hope we’re lost in dance utopia in a trance blueprint of liberation sweat and step repetition “We must find temporal modes unintelligible to the tongues of racial capitalism and neoliberalism. The most prominent, widespread assassinations are slow, stretched across linear time. Poverty and neglect are $CAPITAL$ punishments, weapons of choice for behemoth serial killers, corporate masters of slow death processing. So, we pause. “

Mentioned only for a second, time is such a small window Judy in the universe, no locus of control Humbled by an elemental force, the mercy of it all I've been trying to see through the illusions I've been trying to wait out the delusions you use when you curse the foggy mirror for the third time this morning I've been quiet, I've been quiet I'm not gonna force this, create or destroy this I cannot forget what Peter said in the trellis Love’s in every breath, have you ignored it or felt it? Here I change my outcome from outnumbered to number one I've been quiet, I've been quiet I'm not gonna force this, create or destroy this I guess I'll just store this Quiet myths form versions of ourselves that we hardly knew Crucial loops keep dream memories Strike me in deja vu

about

An annex of last year’s "House Sounds" compilation, this year’s "Room for You" features 24 tracks by artists on and outside of the Funnybone roster. We're humbled to feature the debut of new projects, rare collaborations, unearthed gems, current releases, top-of-your-lungs anthems... and then some.

This project is an outcome to Funnybone's ongoing objective of creating spaces for artists to share their headroom in times of isolation and vulnerability, empowerment and pursuit of change. Spaces to confront and communicate difficult, honest feelings in hopes of better understanding ourselves and each other. Spaces for necessary escapism and unapologetic catharsis. Spaces to feel together, even when we’re apart.

Our goal is to raise $5,000. Proceeds from this release will be going to our hometown heroes at Kamora’s Cultural Corner and their effort to create Brave Spaces within Hartford's marginalized communities, as well as to the Loveland Foundation’s Therapy Fund for Black Women and Girls, the National Queer and Trans Therapists of Color Network, and between the contributing artists.⁣ We believe no one should be deprived of receiving help based on their financial status, and no one should have to swallow their struggle out of fear of judgmental, biased reactions.

We hope you can find your own peace and power through this collection of songs.
