Dear Hunter, Go to sleep in your pine As lonely as my bones are marching slow. Are you a muscle in my chest or just a wild thing with no home Dragging me along? Hunter, while you're listening may I ask another question? how does it feel to have control? If there are rivers underground and there are rivers inside me which should I attempt to sail if ever I should need escape the ghost haunting my skin but he's the only one I have I share him with someone else he's my miscarried son. Oh hunter I know you know. Let's leave the forest for the trees. Oh hunter I know you know let's leave the forest for the hunting and sleep in the pine. Oh hunter I know it hurts but alone is how we came, and hunter I know it hurts I'll keep you warm if you keep me alive. Oh Hunter, when we were young, we used to talk about how heavy things could be. Oh Hunter, when we were young, we used to talk about how empty things could be.

Too Soon 02:12
I went to the house where you were born Hoping to find something of yours a memory perhaps of you and the Bee King a footprint in the garden from when you still believed in God and and magic But he's gone, gone, gone I imagine all the time I spent in traffic just to get here is my reaching fingers escape through the wispy veil of death between us now but it seems here though you're just a cloud of smoke from candles just burnt out 8,741 days too soon You're gone, gone, gone When you screamed, "Daddy, Daddy you bastard I'm through!" I thought, "Oh my God! I'm in love with you! I'd stick my head in an oven to be close to you." But if God were really out there wouldn't you still be here? and if God were really out there would I write love songs to dead authors? 8,741 days too soon Too soon

His Music has been described and "a little cool and a little weird – in a good way" and "very story-telling".
Sometimes mellow and bittersweet; a songbird at your window sill and at other times a thunderous full-throated roar of emotive stomping and hollering like a wild preacher of the end-times!
