2.	New Friend 04:04	lyrics	buy track
What’s your name I’ve seen your face It’s so clear you want to be here In my bed I’m the same Like love and hate They both rise with drooping eyes at The same time I don’t need fantasies Just to breathe the air of something Else living Sit with me Talk to me I have not felt interesting Is this me? Nice to meet you, what’s your name? You ask me I’m the ocean, won’t you lay beside me? Don’t be broken hearted Finish what your body started Still, I haven’t known you long but something Calls me deeply like a song I’m hearing Warm vibration fills me, giving what my body’s missing Take me now, I need that heart From someone’s mouth on top of me Let it out, it’s a shame We were let down this way It’s our nature, come this way, come this way Prehistoric instinct flashing quickly There’s no other way to save my body Just believe that what I’m saying has some real meaning Long devoted conversation dying There’s no other words to hide your crying Deep inside you want to touch me Like I want to touch you Take me now, I need that heart From someone’s mouth on top of me Let it out, it’s a shame We were let down this way It’s our nature, come this way, come this way
3.	I Burn 04:33	lyrics	buy track
Spirits follow you home Showing up when you’re alone Tell them to all go away Even if it’s just for a day But I trust that wind And you’ve got me pinned Secrets hidden in words Come out and share with the world Waiting and hoping to hear That I’ve got no reason to fear ‘Cause I trust that wind And you’ve got me pinned Yes, I trust that wind And you’ve got me pinned I float on a raft in the sea I don’t know where it’s taking me We talk for an hour or three And no one is yelling at me so i’ll trust that wind And she’s got me pinned So I’ll trust that wind And she’s got me pinned And I want to see you again Even if it’s just as a friend But speak up and tell me the truth I gave you a part of my youth So, I’ll trust that wind ‘Cause you’ve got me pinned And I’ll trust that wind ‘Cause you’ve got me pinned so tell me what I should if I burn for no one but you I burn for no one but you I burn for no one but you
4.	Body Sale 01:42	lyrics	buy track
Ma-Mama makes her way to the city She wants to feel good She wants to be pretty Mama goes down to the dingy part of the alley She meets with a new man who says her new name is candy She goes to a room She doesn’t want to do what she has to do She goes to a room Ma-mama makes her way to the feeding hall Homeless faces hurry or they won’t get fed at all Walk fast catch the max to the nearest liquor stores With a bottle and glowing T.V. She doesn’t have to think anymore She goes to a room She doesn’t want to do what she has to do She goes to a room
5.	Cosmic and Pretty Eyed 02:43	lyrics	buy track
Soap in my eyes again I realize they’re red You had me on my bed You bite my lips again Over and over Holding my lover Show me a freedom “Holy” is “hold me” Cosmic and pretty eyed. She says “Joaquin”, a game Playing with words and names Her heart will skip a beat Ii think it’s time we meet A week without you Breaks me to pieces Touching your presence Feeling your absence Cosmic and pretty eyed So you have made a home Out of some sticks and stones Let me inside your door Animals on your floor Can it be real? All that I feel You are believing Searching within me Cosmic, I slowly die

7.	Changing the Season 04:27	lyrics	buy track
You tell me that you need me But you don’t ever see me You tell me that you love me Then how come you don’t call me? I had a million questions But never got an answer You didn’t want to tell me Things that happened after I’m asking for A reason, a reason, a reason You’re changing the season The season, the season, the season A reason, a reason, a reason You’re changing the season The season, the season, the season Build a wall around me (Build a wall around me) And let me fall to pieces (Let me fall to pieces) Form again this morning (Form again this morning) Remember how you loved me? (Remember how you loved me) The body hangs on tightly (The body hangs on tightly) To memories of feeling (To memories of feeling) Locked to passing perfume (Locked to passing perfume) I always seem to find you (I Always seem to find you) I’m asking for A reason, a reason, a reason You’re changing the season The season, the season, the season A reason, a reason, a reason You’re changing the season The season, the season, the season Hold me while you can Let me feel your bloodless hands Cold and very pale Such sweet eyes that call me still Emptiness that fills All this space inside my chest I know how it feels sweet familiar broken heart Please come back to me I can’t sleep without your heat Dreams are all confused Without your beating heart I’m asking for A reason, a reason, a reason You’re changing the season The season, the season, the season A reason, a reason, a reason You’re changing the season The season, the season, the season
8.	To Love No One 05:10	lyrics	buy track
Something in my head don’t feel right Something in my head, sure don’t feel right I tried so hard to reach you, now, I don’t really need you That’s a lie, I told you, I don’t feel right It takes a love to learn not to love no one It takes a lot of love to feel all undone I tried so hard to love you but fighting love will kill you It takes a lot of love to learn to love no one I don’t blame the girl, she was straight with me I don’t blame the girl, it was all on me I tried to build a wall but all the bricks would fall In shouldn’t be so quick to love the girls I see Find another girl, that’s what I should do Find another girl who will want me too I hate to let this go, all this love I’ve yet to show Find another girl who will love me too One foot out the door, then she’s leaving me I’ve been here before, she was using me I had to set her free, now, it’s you I should let be I won’t try to kiss your soft lips no more The next song that I write is for the girl next door Who calls me every night always wanting more Still, she don’t exist, she has always been a myth So, I’m alone tonight on my bedroom floor If you change your mind, don’t you call me up If you change your mind, don’t you call me up Just come straight to my home, where I sing a lonely song If you change your mind, don’t you call me up
9.	In My Room 04:23	lyrics	buy track
Tell me, have I done something so wrong? Really, have I been so lost for too long? There’s nothing keeping my body from leaving tonight Tell me, why don’t you want to see me? Am I too fast and pressure you into leaving? Without knowing what I’m doing to you Lay me down, my love You know that hearts will break into A bright new world if you just let the light within Go softly down again, the rain will wash out all Our darkest thoughts So, what? What can I do to convince you I’m not as bad as I seem, and my fear It echoes as though I were dreaming of you Come on, I just want you to kiss me And miss me when I’m not around But love is such a hard thing to hold Lay me down, my love You know that hearts will break into A bright new world if you just let the light within Go softly down again, the rain will wash out all Our darkest thoughts
10.	Nothing burns me 02:56	lyrics	buy track
Say what you want to say I know it’s hard but you have to Tell me to stay or Go where the sun doesn’t come to my door Leave me to die on an old wooden floor I ran outside but the rain hid you well Far down the road, couldn't stay on your tail Say what you have to say I know it’s hard but you have to Tell me to stay or Go where the heat doesn’t burn me at all Go where the ice doesn’t freeze me or thaw Snow pouring down on a cold winter day I want you back but I can’t, so I’ll say So long, so long Someday you might see me as I am I just want to love you without going mad There’s no wrong way I’m not crazy Go where the sun doesn’t come to my door Leave me to die on an old wooden floor I ran outside but the rain hid you well Far down the road, couldn't stay on your tail So long

about

February is a dreamy trip through the mind of a man in his twenties trying to find his place in the world. With lyricism harkening to the likes of Nick Drake and arrangements strongly influenced by David Bowie, Mulligan finds himself weaving in and out of jazz, psychedelic rock and traditional folk music throughout the 10 track album. The result is as dynamic as it is unique and leaves the listener wanting more
