Chewy Brings me back to the days of old-school As Cities Burn and MewithoutYou. I was thrilled to bits when I found that fellow students were writing music like this within my dormitory's walls. Favorite track: An Enemy Did This.

Absconder 04:21
No wonder absconders find their way to heaven on their hands and knees you’re only gonna give it to the least of these. Adoni found my heart, lying in the hands of the dirty earth love was steady begging me to open up the door. You will send A holy wind Up above to groan for them For the weak who have no words Lips like these don’t speak peace. when all their looking’ for is a lamb to lure, watch me take advantage of the lock on the door... Prodigal again Lord, why am I always prodigal again? ...and I’ve spent it all! “He never stops waiting on, Sons to turn back, to come home.”

I heard your lips make a promise I swore I never would forget You said, “Forgiveness is upon us, far as the east is from the west.” So I rest my wandering eyes but like a snake around a tree I find it no surprise that I forgot the words you spoke You stretch your arm out to a tree to keep your frame from falling down You stretch your arms out to a T to keep the world you love around They say a fire’s coming down well it already fell my friend So tell the ones you scared to heaven that hell was satisfied back when All our wandering eyes! God help our wandering eyes! Lest we wander till we wonder whether we can even physically unite?! There’s that same snake inside the Garden growth God help us Guard our eyes For they’re the windows to the soul For anything you let inside will only bring you new addiction, but no matter how hard I try only You can shake the seeds that I have sown about my mind, my mind, my mind, my mind ‘til the Harvest 28"‘An enemy did this,’ he replied. ‘til the Harvest I’ll find contentment, but not relief. ‘til the Harvest 30’Suffer both to grow together.’ ‘til the Harvest until the reaper separates the weeds.

Lamp Posts 05:46
It was the strangest thing eyes like lamp posts over me she sees God in the luna’s wing Wait, I still wait, wait I still wait Wait for, you and I still wait, you and I still wait Wait for, you to wash away, you to wash away Wait for you and I still wait, for you to wash away and make us new... It’s in the simple things looking upward through the trees {We fall faster than the leaves} I saw your love in the thread of a sweater, like the gold in the ring on the bone of her finger. This is love. There’s a man on the boat who can walk upon water. Heard him say, there’s a town, coming down, ya it’s not to far away. Stop your dressing up, you poor and needy putting on a show Don’t you know, I see every sin that slowly slips your brain. Every night, stripped of sleep, soaked in lust, all the same. Oh I see it all, I see it all and love you all the same. {And I was on your mind and still an unconvincing child. I stole all your holy words and now I’m waiting on your tongue.} wait I still wait....

Sugar 04:38
“We are oft to blame, It is too much proved” -Shakespeare with the visage of a saint, we do sugar o’er the truth. Spare me from the hollow the hollowness of sound of the fleeting praises coming from their mouths And you speak with such small regard to the things I thought I should do. And I know I have a sinner’s heart, but you said I’ve got a home in you. Oh to see the sins through the bands of time swallowed like a pill and poisoning the wine People of God where have you been? Person of God where have I been? Why are we not playing our parts?
