each breath I take
is another turn on an endless roundabout
each hole in my heart
just drains the love from all I had to give
each month I shine
another light goes dark inside me
I’m holding back this brittle night
I’m holding out for the perfect day
I want a new life... I want to reach that blue horizon
I want a new life... but I never seem to find it
I want a new life... I want to reach that new horizon
I want a new life... so I can give all my dreams to you
I sent my dreams away
to the land they promised me if I just believe
no path to chase
though I always try to find it anyway
each step I take
pursuits turn into painful memories
I’m counting off the time I lost
just take it from that perfect day
I want a new life... I want to reach that new horizon
I want a new life... but I never seem to find it
I want a new life... I want to reach that new horizon
I want a new life... so I can give all my dreams to you
each month that I live there’s new life to give
each month that goes by, more nothing survives

too cold in the winter
too hot in the summer
too bright in the nighttime
too light in the day
“selfish” is rewarded
with too much “us” and “them”
too much love of nothing
too foolish for honest words
too close but isolated
and strung too far apart
“living with each other”:
a broken, foreign art
one day I’ll move on
this play will be over
may this day be done
may this day be done
with time left over

I could tell you I'm sorry
I can't tell you why
Got a head full of reasons I suppose I could sell
An excuse is just a lie that we tell ourselves
I could tell you I’m different
I don’t feel that way
I got a heart full of intentions I repeat with each breath
Even the best of intentions dies a real quick death
I swore to myself I'd never let you down
I swore to myself I'd figure it out
I swore to myself I'd never be like him
But here I am, here I am
I can't tell the difference
I keep trying to change
Say I'll start today
Got these lines around my eyes, for every mistake
Oh destiny means nothing 'til you're caught in its wake
I swore to myself I'd never let you down
I swore up and down I'd figure it out
I swore to myself I'd never be like him
But here I am, here I am
I can't tell the difference

Bounte Chicago, Illinois
Chicago-based indietronica producer Bounte crafts darkly emotive and uniquely structured songs that forge new harmony from disparate ideas, intricately weaving flowing beats, warped guitars, sweet orchestrations, and gnarly bass.
