Adrianna Lenard I could be at a show, or walking to the gas station, or working diligently in spreadsheet hell, and songs from this album will randomly penetrate my day. I catch myself singing a lyric or a melody from this album ALL THE TIME and really can't shake the feeling emoted through this guy's voice. If you're feeling anxious or depressed, or even a little out of focus, this will certainly help you enjoy your moodiness in the best of ways.

No Moon (space for rent) and it’s the trouble we dismiss as we’re getting on our ships it’s the trouble we escape as we gravitate to space we’re gone (3x) looking at the ground the fires enveloping it’s louder than the sound of our bodies jettisoning we’re just driffting we’re searching for land for a planet that suits our needs we’re so tired of this manufactured air that we breathe so we’re searching for one star one hope, no moon looking at the ground the fires enveloping it’s louder than the sound of our bodies jettisoning one star, one hope no moon, no moon, no moon... (2x)
