Who needs Google Maps when you can glance down at your chest? Casually lay around the house without fear of getting lost, or snazz it up like Tim and turn heads.

Written years ago, recorded years ago, production finished years ago, jumped between different Dialectic albums over the years - this one has been sitting in my phone, waiting. It was Andrew Chris' idea to make the vocals layered like that.
2014: An old bartender friend of ours from Pizza Sola in the Oakland in Pittsburgh (RIP) had a tattoo of a moth he showed me - it used to be something else, but he made it into a moth by adding more ink on top of the old tattoo he no longer wanted on him.

lyrics:
I’ve got a tattoo on my heart,
Clawed open, pointed to the spot
Why did I agree to this
It was my idea, all of it
But now I can’t get you off, get you off me
Steel wool and dousing you in bleach
But all that I do keeps hurting me
Dear future me, please comfort me
Dear future me, please hold my hand during surgery, oh
Please future me, please comfort me
Dear future me, please hold my hand during surgery
I’ve got a tattoo on my heart
So I returned back here to the start
And I added more ink, you see
Turned you into a masterpiece
Cuz if I can’t get you off, get you off me
In my arms, albatross, you will hold me
And we will fly, side by side, to unmapped sea
Dear future me, please comfort me
Dear future me

i hoped i'd hear some coronavirus music, fresh from our confinement, and this was a combo of dark & refreshing I didn't know was everything i wanted. Millaze
oh, hunter. oh oh oh hunter. i could sit and watch and listen to hunter for hours and fly off this planet internally without noticing the time pass. how do his fingers do it. how is that voice. Millaze
