    In preparation for touring and playing many more shows I had CDs made. They aren't cased in a conventional sense, but wrapped in plastic and sandwiched between printed cardstock. As low-cost, low-impact, and eco-friendly as I could make them. Professionally printed and burned, so likely a lot nicer than the home-brewed ones I was putting out before.

lyrics

I tell beautiful lies to keep my loved ones off my neck,
"I've got a job incoming," "No my life is not a wreck."
"I haven't been drinking, I don't do that anymore."
"I had people over, that's why bottles are on the floor."

I'm a liar and that's the truth,
and what I have been told,
is lies that don't hurt anyone,
are quiet alright to hold and show yourself,
and in this case,
my lies are only hurting me and that's alright,

"I'm only tired 'cuz I had a hard night sleeping."
"It'll be fine as atleast I'll sleep well tonight."
"I don't drink and drive, 'cuz I don't wanna die."
"I don't get nervous playing this guitar," now really that's a lie.

But I wouldn't lie to you,
I wouldn't lie to you,
I wouldn't lie to you,
No I wouldn't lie to you and that's the truth,

I'm a liar and that's the truth,
and what I have been told,
is lies that don't hurt anyone,
are quiet alright to hold and show yourself,
and in this case,
my lies are only hurting me and that's alright.
