Lyrics:
One day I'll suit up and leave this house for good
Buy a nice car and pollute the Earth like I should
And we all have to die
Put my head on the stone and let the green axe fly

And Sir Green Knight
Wait for me, I'll face what's mine
Resting under shaded pines

Months blur into years, know we had to meet one day
I've come as far I can, I know the summer can't stay
Fled marauders, fled my captors, whisper sweet words "We could be as thick as thieves.."
Try to let you go but what's the point? You can't step twice in the same stream

Yeah I waited my whole life to meet you, roaming glen to glen for so long
Your voice is music to my ears, say your true name, named after a song

And I know you're tired now, I see it in your eyes
But look how far you've come, it's enough
Take the green sash off
The sound of giving up..

And Sir Gawain
Come for me
I'll see you soon and I'll take what's mine
Resting under azure skies

Walking past strawberry fields
And lilac patches, thorny thickets
I see your castle in the distance
To see your face 'cause I still miss it
Corporations, applications, both to me are a death sentence
Your green axe on my neck
And I'm begging you to swing it
'Cause I feel the steel
And it feels so real
And I want to know what my life is worth

And I want to know if I'm worth the kill
And I need to know I'm worth it still
I want to know if its worth the kill
I need to know you're worth it still

So tie the sash back on, I got fight left in me still!!

Description:
For Kanon.

This album acts as the B-side and companion piece to my upcoming album 'Sagrada', an album centered on spirituality within Mexican-American culture and the role it played in family dynamics and my own upbringing, but instead of looking at familial structures I wanted to see the role it played upon my perception of love. So there are similar Christian symbols and themes that I explore on it, but I juxtapose it with my own beliefs of Zen Buddhism as well as questioning organized religion and the beliefs of my parents' and their parents' who grew up within a very patriarchal society that has twisted religion/organized church into fitting their own agenda, siphoning power from the poor and the oppressed in order to benefit the few. The bullshit continues today as the lines between church and state are blurred further, eroding trust in institutions and wielding a corrupt supreme court as a weapon to strip the rights away from millions of women and child-bearing people.

This album was also made under the umbrella of what I thought would be 'Late Night Ramen 5.' I was listening to The Beatles' 'White Album' constantly, trying to capture the spontaneous and sketch-like way it was put together by writing many of these songs in a single day. So many of these songs follow this formula, but as I was making both 'Sagrada' and 'LNR_[05]', I noticed that every other song I made was about someone in particular so I thought it made more sense to compile into its own project.
