about
This EP is free this weekend in celebration of (what would have been) Zachary's 13th birthday on 3/12. It's a letter I wrote him a few years ago. This EP has 3 versions of the song: a cover version by Hulk Hogan Sex Tape, the band demo which is an alternate arrangement, and the LP version from Ofrenda. Thank you for helping me remember my son. [FC]

THIS IS JUST TO SAY
Your baby brother’s not a baby anymore
Man, he’s growing like a weed
He’s asking questions I can’t answer
So I just tell him how we used to be
And your momma’s getting older
But she’s aging gracefully
She’s talking about another baby
She’s finding reasons to believe
And me, I’m writing you this letter
Between faith and misery
Man, I get lonesome here without you
Between what is and what ought to be
And me, I’m trying hard to get myself together
I been praying for peace
To some god I don’t believe in anyways
But desperate men do desperate things
And now the bottle’s almost empty
So I guess I’ll get to sleep
But right before I close my eyes I see you suddenly alive
I linger in-between to watch the way you used to be
