## Lyrics

Do I miss you?

I keep checking my phone

Looking at pics of you

Now that I’m on my own

I don’t know what to do

I know I’m better off

But I keep entertaining

the idea of going back to you

When I think of you at night

and I can’t fall asleep

Is it because I miss you

or am I just lonely

or am I just lonely

You didn’t treat me right

But I miss what you do

I can’t get through a night

Without thinking of you

I know I’m better off

But I keep entertaining

the idea of going back to you

When I think of you at night

and I can’t fall asleep

Is it because I miss you

or am I just lonely

When I think of you at night

and I can’t fall asleep

Is it because I miss you

or am I just lonely

or am I just lonely

Is it better to miss you

or to be lonely

I want you to be near by

but not to own me

I know I’m better off

But I keep entertaining

the idea of going back to you

When I think of you at night

and I can’t fall asleep

Is it because I miss you

or am I just lonely

or am I just lonely

Is it better to miss you

or to be lonely

Do I miss you?

Or am I just lonely

## Lyrics

I’ve been a quitter most of my life

But there’s something different about you

I don't know why it feels like I can't leave

It feels like that's the way it has to be

It’s my life

But you’re taking control

I don’t know what draws me in

But you’re so hard to quit

All of the shame and judgment

And I still can’t drop it

I’m tired of feeing like I need you

But that’s the point that this is getting to

It’s my life

But you’re taking control

I don’t know what draws me in

But you’re so hard to quit

All of the shame and judgment

And I still can’t drop it

My life would be better without you

But I’m too blind to realize

I keep saying I know what to do

But that is just another lie

I don’t know what draws me in

But you’re so hard to quit

I guess I am addicted to you

Why must I be addicted to you

## Lyrics

I am always asking why

I keep coming back to you

I feel like I am the tide

Being pulled in by the moon

I’m living on the hope

The hope that you will change

I just don’t know

why I can’t let you go

If every time I see you

You leave me feeling low, low

You leave me feeling low

I don’t know why I can’t leave

Even with thinking it through

You must have tricks up your sleeves

To make me return to you

I’m living on the hope

The hope that you will change

I just don’t know

why I can’t let you go

If every time I see you

You leave me feeling low, low

You leave me feeling low

Your Plan

You are out to get me

Yeah nothing ever stings

More than

The Invisible thief

You came to break my heart

But you also blew my mind

Why must I fall apart

Just because you are unkind

With all these things that you kept

I Wont get anything new

And with all the times Ive wept

Have you tried to take me too

Nothing I can keep except

for you

Why can’t time just hurry up

so I can finally feel better

I want my mind to be cleared

so you won’t be front and center

I don’t want to think

if I only think bout you

All of these feelings

do nothing good, nothing new

Is it wrong

that I kinda want to feel numb

so I don’t

notice the demons I run from

I wanna be numb

I wanna be numb

I don’t want to talk bout me

not trying to be a burden

but I’d rather feel nothing

than this constant pain and hurtin’

I don’t want to think

if I only think bout you

All of these feelings

do nothing good, nothing new

Is it wrong

that I kinda want to feel numb

so I don’t

notice the demons I run from

I wanna be numb

I wanna be numb

I don’t want to think

if I only think bout you

All of these feelings

do nothing good, nothing new

Is it wrong

that I kinda want to feel numb

so I don’t

notice the demons I run from

I wanna be numb

I wanna be numb

I wanna be numb

I wanna be numb

Don’t want to feel anything

if I am only feeling pain

We were younger

It was a simpler time

We were just blind

Thought everything was fine

We made a mistake

It caused us to break

We built our love on the sand

And hoped that it would withstand

But the floods came

and the winds stayed

And you fell out of my hands

We’re no lost cause

We’re possible to fix

But it takes time

To pick back up these sticks

We made a mistake

It caused us to break

We built our love on the sand

And hoped that it would withstand

But the floods came

and the winds stayed

And you fell out of my hands

Looking back I wish I would have known

That we should have built our love on stone

We’d have a shot

to grow a lot

But now we both just stand here alone

I can’t read the future

but I saw this coming

I saw all the red flags

But chose to do nothing

I knew that’d you hurt me

and that you didn’t care

But when you needed me

You know I would be there

I never listen

but I should have listened

When my head said

Don’t get close to you

cause you’re only gonna leave me hurt

But my heart said

give you one more chance

Cause caring people can still fall short

You’d always avoid me

and say you’re just busy

But when you were chilling

you would never tell me

I picked up on the clues

that you did not like me

But you said that was wrong

and made me feel guilty

I never listen

but I should have listened

When my head said

Don’t get close to you

cause you’re only gonna leave me hurt

But my heart said

give you one more chance

Cause caring people can still fall short

I kept giving you chances

but nothing has ever changed

You’d blame me for your mistakes

and get mad when I complained

How was it my fault

that you always ignored me

talked down to me

and told me that you didn’t think we were close

I should have listened

Should have listened

Should have listened

Cause it would have saved me lots of pain

But you change things around

You’re my amnesia
You help me forget my pain
In this arena
You’re what helps me remain sane

I want to move past my mistakes
But I can’t just restart
Yet there are too high stakes
For me to fall apart

I forget when I’m fine
But I remember the bad times
But you change things around

You’re my amnesia
You help me forget my pain
In this arena
You’re what helps me remain sane, remain sane

You’re my amnesia
You help me forget my pain
In this arena
You’re what helps me remain sane

## Lyrics

Let me stop you

before we get too far

you should see things

just how they really are

I have some flaws

You know no one’s perfect

but some don’t show

but now you won’t feel tricked

I might get angry

let things get out of hand

I’m Some what stubborn

won’t follow each demand

I like some control

I like things how I plan

Cause you deserve a warning

before you commit

If you leave by the morning

I’ll understand it

But if you stay

Don’t say I never warned you

I’ve been bad at love

cause I’m too much to handle

I start off okay

till someone turns the channel

“Where did this come from”

They all end up asking me

But I am not sure

And that is a guarantee

I don’t like drama

It’s such a waste of my time

Treat me with respect

And I think we’ll be just fine

Those who mistreat me

are the ones who make me mad

and yet those people

are the only love I've had

But just to be fair

I don’t want to make any broken promises

Because you know how much I hate them

I might get angry

let things get out of hand

I’m some what stubborn

won’t follow each demand

I like some control

I like things how I plan

Cause you deserve a warning

before you commit

If you leave by the morning

I’ll understand it

But if you stay

## Lyrics

I felt a connection right from the start

I loved every time that we talked

But I never thought I would fall apart

I wish that I left my heart blocked

My life feels so empty now

But was it ever really full cause

I’ve been searching for my whole life

Searching for someone who could love me for me

I thought I found it in you

But this ain’t it

No this ain’t it

I thought you were what I was waiting for

But it looks like I’ll keep waiting

Cause I have been fighting an inner war

to see if you were worth saving

My life feels so empty now

But was it ever really full cause

I’ve been searching for my whole life

Searching for someone who could love me for me

I thought I found it in you

But this ain’t it

No this ain’t it

Did I make a mistake

Always giving you a second chance

Very clear you were fake

Everyone else knew it at first glance

I’ve been searching for my whole life

Searching for someone who could love me for me

I thought I found it in you

But this ain’t it

No this ain’t it

But you weren’t it

No you weren’t it

Evergreen (Intro)

## Background

During writing songs for his second album, Evans began experimenting with writing songs much shorter than he typically had. This lead him to wanting to try it out on *Wesleigh* as well. He made the song the intro, because he felt as though it was a nice way to start off the EP.

## Composition

*Evergreen (Intro)* is a christmas ballad that deals with someone loving you throughout all seasons of your life. Evans wanted to go back to his early writing stages, before he used chord progressions, for this song. He came up with a rhythm on the piano, and expanded on it throughout the song. The song is written the key of Ab Major at 74 beats per minute, and lasts for 1 minute and 48 seconds.

## Lyrics

The temperature is falling

The plants are starting to die

And the sky looks grey

Things are looking hopeless

And it's looking like you might leave me

Until you turned and said

that your love for me was nothing like the oak trees

It is more like the evergreens

Staying lush and lively

When everything else is dreary

Palate

## Single(s)

1. Amnesia (June 22, 2018)2. Sink or Swim (August 5, 2018)

Palate is the first EP by singer songwriter Wesley Evans.  The EP was released on August 5th, 2018.  Pre-Order for the EP began on June 22nd, 2018; with the release of it's first single, Amnesia. On July 13th, he tweeted out the track listing for the EP.

## Background

In January 2017, Evans released Your New Favorite, the first song off of his first album, Trust Issues.  After that, Evans completed any finishing touches for *Trust Issues*, and then began the writing process for his second album.  Throughout the writing process, Evans changed album direction several times, which resulted in him having a lot of scrapped songs.  From there, Evans decided that he wanted to find a way to release these songs, because he felt they were still good.  Evans created *Palate* as a way to release several of these songs, that did not make the cut for his second album.

## Name Origin

Evans chose the name *Palate*for the EP, due to the culinary term "palate cleanser".  He felt that, in some ways, the EP served kind of as a palate cleanser, by being a small taste between albums, and a sample of what's ahead.

## Composition

The EP begins with *Amnesia*, which is an electropop song that deals with someone who helps you forget about bad times, when you are with them. *Low* is an electropop song that deals with not being able to leave someone that treats you poorly. The song contains elements of EDM along with a more dubstep driven drum kit.

## Singles

*Amnesia* was released as the first single off of the EP, on June 22nd, 2018. The song received an acoustic version on July 10th, 2018.

*Low* was released as a promotional single on July 20th, 2018.

*Sink or Swim* was released as the second single off of the EP, on August 5th, 2018.

## Lyrics

We used to talk for the whole day

But now we have nothing to say

Don’t say anymore

I’ve heard this excuse before

“I’ve been busy”

“Things are crazy”

“Life’s not easy”

You say

“Now’s not a good time

I need a break”

But I’ll see you in the future

Okay

You might have no free time

But I can’t wait

Oh can’t it be some time sooner

I’ve been on my phone a lot less

But that’s not worth all of the stress

Don’t say anymore

I’ve heard this excuse before

“I’ve been busy”

“Things are crazy”

“Life’s not easy”

You say

“Now’s not a good time

I need a break”

But I’ll see you in the future

Okay

You might have no free time

But I can’t wait

Oh can’t it be some time sooner

The future can’t come soon enough

Being without you is too rough

The future can’t come soon enough

Being without you is too rough

The future can’t come soon enough

Being without you is too rough

Being without you is too rough

## Lyrics

I never wanted to be dependent on someone

just in case they ever left

I don’t know how I would find the strength to carry on

If I was put to the test

I didn’t want to trust you

cause I didn’t want you to break it

When you started to leave me

I just knew that I could not take it

But I opened up to you

I let you see all my darkest sides

I spilled it all out for you

and then I started getting weird vibes

The closer I got to you

the more I needed you

You were an addiction

I never wanted to be dependent on someone

just in case they ever left

I don’t know how I would find the strength to carry on

If I was put to the test

When we touched I felt a rush

but soon that flame started to flicker

you lost all interest in me

I wish that I did something quicker

The closer I got to you

the more I needed you

You were an addiction

I never wanted to be dependent on someone

just in case they ever left

I don’t know how I would find the strength to carry on

If I was put to the test

I never wanted to be dependent on someone

just in case they ever left

But now you’re gone

And I am dependent on you

You’re gone

And I am dependent on you

You’re gone

And I am dependent on you

I never wanted to be dependent on someone

just in case they ever left

I don’t know how I would find the strength to carry on

If I was put to the test

I never wanted to be dependent on someone

just in case they ever left

But now you’re gone

And I am dependent on you

There’s too much pain

I can’t escape it now

I need someone

to help me make it out

To whoever’s listening

this is my prayer

Help me out, give me a sign

if you’re out there

I’ve been all alone

trying to fight

but you can help me

avoid the night

There’s too much pain

I can’t escape it now

I need someone

to help me make it out

To whoever’s listening

this is my prayer

Help me out, give me a sign

if you’re out there

I’m tired of people pushing me away

every time I need them

I need to find someone else to confide in

but when will I meet them

There’s too much pain

I can’t escape it now

I need someone

to help me make it out

To whoever’s listening

this is my prayer

Help me out, give me a sign

if you’re out there

Cause I know I will reach out

and reopen this hell

Something about you

makes me feel weak

as if I would die

if we don’t speak

I thought I was strong

but guess I’m weak

I want to reach out

cause I like control

How do I forget

how you took your toll

on me

Someone take my phone away

cause I can’t trust myself

Cause I know I will reach out

and reopen this hell

Something about you

makes me feel weak

as if I would die

if we don’t speak

I thought I was strong

but guess I’m weak

I want what I can’t have

and we know I can’t have you

but I’ll try knowing that

it’s the stupid thing to do

Someone take my phone away

cause I can’t trust myself

Cause I know I will reach out

and reopen this hell

Something about you

makes me feel weak

as if I would die

if we don’t speak

I thought I was strong

but guess I’m weak

I guess I’m weak

Someone take my phone away

cause I can’t trust myself

You say that we’ll hang out this week

But I doubt it

Days go by where we won’t speak

But every time that we talk

I have no idea where it’s going, cause

Some times your my best friend

And other times you ignore me like the plague

It’s so inconsistent

I need some clarity because your so vague

Did I do something wrong

Because you keep on ignoring me

I know what’s going on

I think you dislike me, secretly

You say you’re too busy with work

But can’t you text

You respond to everyone else

What’s wrong with me

But every time that we talk

I have no idea where it’s going, cause

Some times your my best friend

And other times you ignore me like the plague

It’s so inconsistent

I need some clarity because your so vague

Did I do something wrong

Because you keep on ignoring me

I know what’s going on

I think you dislike me, secretly

Your secret is out

You didn’t hide it too well

Now I have no doubt

That I am being dispelled

Did I do something wrong

Because you keep on ignoring me

I know what’s going on

I think you dislike me, secretly

I know what’s going on

I *know* you dislike me, secretly

Guess the scars healed

and I’m ready for more

you were far away

’til I opened my door

My mind’s saying

but I’m not convinced

Cause tonight

I’m playing with fire

To find out

Whether you’re a liar

I’m playing with fire

am I gonna burn

Will I remember your touch

or are you a stranger

Will I feel safe here with you

or will I be in danger

Cause tonight

I’m playing with fire

To find out

Whether you’re a liar

I’m playing with fire

am I gonna burn

am I gonna burn

burn burn burn burn

I’d like some new shoes

But I can’t afford ‘em, ‘ford ‘em

I’d want a new phone

But I can’t afford one, ‘ford one

So I can escape this place

But I can’t afford it, ‘ford it

You keep taking things from my life

But soon there will be nothing left

Cause I'm

Out of time

out of hope

I’m out of money

Out of love

out of peace

Oh how you drain me

I’d like to have friends

But I can’t afford ‘em, ‘ford ‘em

I want a lover

But I can’t afford one, ‘ford one

I need sanity

So I can escape my head

But I can’t afford it, ‘ford it

You keep taking things from my life

Soon there will be nothing left

Cause I'm

Out of time

out of hope

I’m out of money

Out of love

out of peace

Oh how you drain me

Am I asking for too much

Cause I am not getting a break

I’m not trying to be spoiled

I’m just trying to be happy

Money won’t buy happiness

Or at least that’s what you say

I won’t know cause I have neither

You act like you’re helping me

But you’re just leaving me

Out of time

out of hope

I’m out of money

Out of love

out of peace

Oh how you drain me
