Vito Colano Copacetic rouses an ephemeral nostalgia that's both busy and sleepy, it brings me back to an intimately unfamiliar place that I'm not sure ever existed. Favorite track: I Miss. I Would. I Will..

Dreamscape 04:22
water burns so hot on my empty head it's the only reason to get out of bed start my day off slow with two cups of old coffee now i'm ready to go taste the mold take my first steps into that winters cold where soft warmth comes from lighters and smoke lulled into that red dreamscape lulled into that orange dreamscape lulled into that yellow dreamscape but don't forget your dreams again don't forget your dreams (x4) these Baltimore roads they hold an ethereal haze (x4) maybe there's beauty in this place but i've forgotten the phrase

i saw dear friend a new side of you i heard your voice shake waxing drunk about winter i felt a beat from the soles of my feet knowing too well the pain of a splinter but we danced until dawn strobe lights through the fog we gazed off the roof of a night in the fall when my plane took off i was thinking of you but I left we would come back home and drink herbal tea in the summers we left university in letters on screens lingering fingers locked we played you tell me and nobody talked on sunny spring days we caught cherry blossom leaves and heard birds sing praise nesting in old christmas wreathes by silhouettes of trees and through mist we walked it was still you and me though nobody talked i saw city streets open around you i heard your voice echo through the hall i felt the touch of a could be lover and i didn't say anything but we tripped through the park with holes in our shoes and we waited too long to hold in the view when the snow came down i was thinking of you but you left

Of the Bone 05:49
i opened to you in a dark room in the middle of July you held my tears in your palms and drank them slowly you opened my world we intertwined in a whirlpool of red wine we tumbled and rolled like clothes on dry was it a feeling of the bone or was it a thought afloat in my head was it a felling i should have known when you drifted into my home you gave me life what did you see in me we were like two little mice under suburban canopies at night and you said why do you have to go i miss you dearly i went to the creek to sit where we once held hands was it a feeling of the bone was it a thought afloat in my head i had a feeling i should have known waiting too long to say i have to go now we meet again you're laughing i'm laughing like friends but i know the memories sit underneath expressions your eyes glow in the refreshments and i hope that you still think of me and i hope that you still think of me and i hope that you still think of me was it a feeling of the bone or was it a thought afloat in my head what is this feeling i can't say i know it was nice to see you before i go

bend break startled awake stand up straight red brick face drums set pace Saturday race glide on blue at noon full bloom restless night why fight closed eyes strikes one no run soft hum i miss the morning light i miss the afternoon hike i miss the evening bite i miss the sunset sight i would love to hear your voice i will be in another place please call me soon night or day i'll be awake for that we might talk soon i would love to see your face don't forget my smile i won't forget your smile walk with me away and laugh laugh with me and be now for that we might die soon i would love to hold your hand

Lotus-Eyed 07:24
orange california poppy cardamom seeds and ginger coffee green plantains fried at night little by little loss of sight neon blue flowering perennials black market stem cells children playing red rover green envy calling you a poser wiki racing nighttime distractions college student social action house party nausea forgotten who called ya off beat snare drum basement show hold your tongue sit back and observe the social status no bed frame only a mattress hardwood floor scratched in the move hole in the drywall on day two fall for a day winter for a year no central heater rooftop party skyy vodka soul music and pasta full moon over wet cement relent and repent passive aggressive comments online basking in the shade feeling sublime midnight trippin robitusson drinkin college campus tours everyone's insecure cocaine and mcflurries little by little vision gets blurry --- i don't see you in the morning i don't see you anymore when you met me i was falling i slept on feathered floors i slept on flowerbeds i drank the moon in my morning cofee i ate the sun in my evening stew

Didja? 05:41
kiss me tomorrow i follow sunken tones reverberating in the hollow wood would that i could play this body today bent notes bouncing off brandy and glasses of chardonnay has it passed another big day where you asked yourself what to say did you laugh at your own face did you laugh at your own face then you layed in your bed until May kiss me tomorrow regarding what you said in your letters i am sorry little did i know that toads slow croak would make you flutter off the boat hands tied but still afloat has it passed another big day where you asked yourself what to say did you laugh at your own face did you laugh at your own face then you layed in your bed until May (x3) kiss me tomorrow i hold in open palms my broken gifts for the swallow has it passed another big day where you asked yourself what to say did you laugh at your own face did you laugh at your own face then you layed in your bed until May

Heart Rot 04:51
we went up the mountains we wanted to go the whole way we were shouting we're driving too slow it's quiet at night these days everyone's inside lights are turning off below us to signal that it's time who was that person we saw i've seen them somewhere else the music will bring us all together soon we might feel better (x2) the sun is pulled through jello skies why, bye-bye, goodnight when you wake up tomorrow i hope you feel less hollow don't stand around too long your legs might get tired roll down the hill alongside you your friend rolls a tire the grass is turning brown and you fall behind you stack orange cones alone right next to the car there's that person again this time maybe you should call a tree rots from the inside but its pretty when leaves fall (x2) the sun is pulled through jello skies why, bye-bye, goodnight when you wake up tomorrow i hope you feel less hollow (x2) hold your breath and start to feel dizzy smile as you fall isn't that fitting hold your breath and start to feel dizzy smile as you fall isn't that pretty?

about

this is my first solo album. it's been in the works since the end of 2015, although some ideas go back to 2011. i hope you enjoy it!

thanks to everybody who's helped me along the way, there are so many of you. i'd like to specially thank Arian Dehnow and Utkarsh Rajawat for constantly reviewing material with me and providing thoughtful feedback on anything i'd send them. i'd also like to thank Francesca D'Uva for her voice on this and Steve Silverstein for his masterful mastering of the album.
