i knew who i was when i was a young man
it all starts to fade
you poke holes in your plans
where your dreams were living
i struggled to keep that poor old man alive
i was spinning the plates
i was throwing the knives
from the high rise
into thin air
how i'm sometimes undecided
re-evalute
you're good people!
i know i am such a mess some ways
if you'll allow it
i know i'm gonna prove my worth to you
am i getting through to you?
babe, i need a rescue
you were handcuffed and led through a cardboard parade
i was there when they let you out
there for the save with the Honda
we drove my apartment
then walked to the ocean
and sat there and basked in the orange of sunset explosion
the salt wind softly
blows my hair back as i sit and wonder
re-evalute
you're good people!
i know i am such a mess some days
i kinda like it
i know i'm gonna prove my worth to you
am i getting through to you?
babe, can you hear me?
i need a rescue
i don't know what i want
i don't have any plans
i just stand there and wait with my hat in my hands
as the car pulls away
i think i'd rather walk there anyways
how i'm sometimes undecided
re-evalute
you're good people!
i know i am such a mess some ways
if you'll allow it
i know i'm gonna prove my worth to you
am i getting through to you?
babe, can you hear me?
i need a rescue

Will Mitchell - vocals, piano, arrangement

Marcus Rezak - lead guitar
Had the pleasure of helping produce this lovely record. Julian's music is perfect for a sunny morning or afternoon in your pajamas. If you like Paul Simon, Sufjan or Cat Stevens - give it a spin. Will Mitchell
This album and Semi-Rose are both must-listens. Offbeat, colorful, and true. The music is catchy and perfect for fans of interesting vocals such as Eels, Modest Mouse, and Pixies. Will Mitchell
Will has developed his own style through the years, but he's had a sound since the first time I met him - and it continues to this day. For fans of Father John Misty, Lord Huron, and Tom Petty. Will Mitchell
“Write The Soil Lighter” is full of beguilingly mysterious folk-adjacent music, shrouded in shadow and atmospherics. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 30, 2023
