about

Plaything is the first single release from Jory Avner's upcoming untitled EP, and is the premier song working with producer Dean Dichoso. It was written and recorded in January of 2022 in Houston, TX at Psychonaut studios.

lyrics

It's honest work to keep my head on straight.
What's another day in bed?
I'm scared of dying in the prairie state
Staring at the walls and longing for a former friend.

It's autumn fires and Halloween
They make me think of you.
And the cold wind cuts right through.

It was love that kept us hanging on
But some people can't be helped.
You made a plaything out of right and wrong.
It wasn't what you did to me so much as for your self.

So take me all apart in folds
of your Egyptian sheet.
Don't tell me what it means.

The dark of the hall seems forlorn.
The end of this call is well worn.
Take the lead and leave it all behind.
