February
Liner Notes
15!?
The month between months.
This is probably my last tune for FAWM. Wanted to write something to sum up the month (a week before the month is over). I'll stick around to listen to everybody else's work! I'll be sanding the edges off of my songs and putting the album out later this year. Again, probably. Endless thanks to all the FAWM folks for their astonishing kindness and encouragement.
Written and recorded between 3:12 and 5:00 PM Feb 22nd, 2026.

Lyrics
In February, I found my soul was full of sound The fires in my mind burned dry on dusty ground Come spring, the sun will chase my winter woes away āTil then, Iāll hide inside and wish that it was May
What will it be today? Is it snowfall, or is it rain? Is it sunshine, or is it gray? Are you leaving? Or will you stay?
In February I tried to tell you what I am But nothing I could say would make you understand I havenāt got the heart to tear myself apart I hope youāll smile again when winter starts to end
What will it be today? Is it snowfall, or is it rain? Is it sunshine, or is it gray? Are you leaving? Or will you stay?
'cause I aināt quite happy, and I aināt quite sad I canāt tell if these are good days or the worst I ever had And I canāt quite move, and I canāt sit still I donāt know if things are changing or if they ever will And Iām broken and Iām healing and Iām numb from all the feeling And I canāt stop talking about all that Iām concealing And I know the sun is coming but it canāt come soon enough And I know that this is weakness, but I know it makes me tough
What will it be today? Is it snowfall, or is it rain? Is it sunshine, or is it gray? Are you leaving? Or will you stay?
Comments
Love the early-Dylanesque wild carefree urgency to this one. Such a great summing up song, so glad you got so much out of your first FAWM! Musicianship is once again off the charts, that little descending run you do a couple of times is proper chefs kiss stuff. And the build at the end is magnificent. Top notch songwriting here!
Incredible dynamics throughout. Amazing performance under any circumstance but considering how quickly you put this together, itās a bit mind blowing.
This is amazing! It has a vibe that really works for me. I love your performance, it really flows so well between the guitar and vocals. Wish I could play like that, would make a lot of my songs sound so much better instantly :D š Hats off to 15 songs and good luck on your album this year! I hope we see you again next year and you can share more of your art with us!
Great write better performance! You crushed it this month dude! Been an absolute pleasure to listen to your stuff. Come back for 5090 if itās back this year itās a lot of fun too
Nice lyric, got a good flow and moves well between ideas! A lot of energy in the delivery although itās held back at times. Another good song
That's some stasis your narrator is in, and some real powerful rockin' to get all that stasis across.
Hawt dayumn! Great energy and performance. The talking section is a powerhouse. The "are you leaving / will you stay" hook captures a great groundhog day sense of February.
