    The cover of the 'Unmake Me' album features a photo of a stunning Avon swan jewelry dish that a student gave Keith from Parting's mom as a gift for tutoring. He saw it and vowed to use it as an album cover and fulfilled the prophecy over a decade later. Now immortalized forever and wearable on your clothes!

    Pin comes with backing card, suitable for display and impressing your neighbors, friends, and family.

lyrics

I painted it shut
There were reasons I would not speak
(for fear of saying them out loud
would give bodies to old ghosts)

Then, I avoided their footsteps
They were haunting the hallways,
loud and uneven marching
like a parade of potential misspent-
caterwauling like a lazy jazz quartet

I could feel my decisions now
they were shouting out loud!
They were louder when I stopped,
so I kept on moving

For every step that I took
they matched pace,
one measure behind me

All of the sudden, I realized
I had not painted it shut

I had painted myself into a corner

I had given bodies to old ghosts,
I had marked the parade route

So I turned around and let them come,
pulled their teeth out, one by one

I gave them new names!
I reclaimed myself!

Fear is power when removed from your body

Think Knapsack meets The Get Up Kids. ... more
