Paradox 05:04
Does it scare you That your life could be over in a moment Does it scare you That your life could begin at any time Human errors that have plagued your mind Disconnected from the home you've left behind Trapped inside your body you'll find This paradox is now your life Distorting memories in time Blinded by your daydreams Blur the lines of reality Do you even exist Does it scare you That your thoughts could consume your very being Does it haunt you The ghosts that come to visit at night Toss and turning in your bed Hallucinations running through your head Trapped inside the agony of life This paradox is now your life Distorting places in time Struggling with what is real Numbing you to all you feel Do you even exist This paradox is now my life Distorting memories of my mind Torturing my sanity wondering what will become of me Do I even exist

I feel chills shiver down my spine With my thoughts racing through the night This fear I can't seem to shake While my heart began to dissipate Yea it scared me Your faces are one face And I don't know which one to love anymore As you continue to fade away Could be I never really found what I thought Trying to figure out what I really lost I'll force these pieces just to make me Whole again I'm running faster than my body allows And still I'm chasing a ghost It haunts me every night and creeps into my dreams Trying to catch something that feels so out of reach I've gotten use to disappointment I wish you would just remove this curse on my life Of being stuck in reverse Could be I never really found what I thought (Maybe I'm chasing a ghost) Trying to figure out what I really lost (That's what hurts the most) I'll force these pieces just to make me Whole again I'm running faster than my body allows And still I'm chasing a ghost Maybe the ghost is really me And I'm chasing my identity Drifting to things that don't exist Then vanish into the distance Maybe the ghost is really me And I'm chasing my identity A specter that isn't really here The closer you get the more I disappear

Another Year 03:56
I spent the new year alone Nothing to celebrate here on my own I left you behind in the last year So I could find some happiness Another year of nothing happening Another year of nothing changing Another year of trying to find yourself Another year just like the last Resolutions were made To make me feel alive and safe But I hide behind false promises So I could find new ways to live Another year of nothing happening Another year of nothing changing Another year of trying to find yourself Another year just like the last Wasting Time Living the same way It'll never change Another year of nothing happening Another year of nothing changing Another year of trying to find yourself Another year just like the last Just like the last

When We Land 03:13
Write it down Say your name Meet again someday Crossing paths Fade away Dream about us Live your life Day to day Search for something to say Reaching out for your hand When we land Where we land Transcends space and time A lifespan Connect by fate Hope not too late Reunite us When we land Beams of light across the skies Stars are falling in sight Three apart Link our hearts Think about us Where you are What you do Hope to end it all with you Searching out for your hand When we land Where we land Transcends space and time A lifespan Connect by fate Hope not too late Reunite us When we land In the twilight our heart and souls collide Outter body Don't Leave with out me Don't After all is said and done Could we be the one I just want to hold your hand When we land Where we land Transcends space and time A lifespan Connect by fate It's not too late Reunite us

I don't wanna go out anymore I wanna stay in and do nothin I don't wanna see light Or go dancin at night I just don't see the point all these things I don't wanna wake up anymore I'm too tired to care about living life I wanna go back to the days when I felt alive And when you were alive And I wasn't trying so hard to survive Maybe I'll go on searching for hope Maybe I won't find it But after all is done I'll reflect about everything And I'll close my eyes

Windows 03:34
Skin to skin in the night Clouded feelings arise To control my body's debt Taking pleasures advice Getting fooled by the sight Of desires in your flesh I can see the lies The lies through my windows (While I'm inhaling you) I can see the lies The lies through your windows (While you're exhaling me) I can see the lies The lies through my windows (While you're inhaling me) I can see the lies The lies through your windows (While I'm exhaling you) Face to face in the night Deceitful words are disguised As good intentions Blinded by the glow of the signs That our love went awry So we'll ruin all that's left I can see the lies The lies through my windows (While I'm inhaling you) I can see the lies The lies through your windows (While you're exhaling me) I can see the lies The lies through my windows (While you're inhaling me) I can see the lies The lies through your windows (While I'm exhaling you) The lies (While you're inhaling me) The lies

Mirage 04:43
I'm not here, that's what they say Draw me in and feel me slippin away Layin down, I'm driftin deeper Blur the lines between what's real Then I see you Here when I sleep In my dreams You'll feel real, to me You're not here, that's what they say Drew you in and felt you slippin away Drifting deep, inching closer I'll pen to paper what I feel When I see you Here when I sleep In my dreams Day or night You feel real, to me And I can't stop running towards you (x3) And I can't stop running from you (x3) And I can't stop running towards you And I can't stop running from you And I can't stop running towards you

I went driving around To clear mind To catch my breath I went driving around for a long time The summer breeze drifts softly As fall creeps slowly in And summer slips away through the night Searching all these states just to find you Traveling through time just to burn more daylight looking But I won't know what you look like (No I don't know but I hope you) Fall in love with me forever Or only for the few hours I'm here I wanna feel connected to you At least until the morning comes and I'm gone Passing through the cities Navigating through these landscapes Just to reach this next destination In countless towns In a different place Searching sights while meeting face after face With no clue of who I'm search for But the way you captivate my attention I don't know if it's real or a misguided affection Some Impulsive intentions (Impulsive but I hope you) Fall in love with me forever Or only for the few hours I'm here I wanna feel connected to you At least until the morning comes and I'm gone With the windows down You could feel the howl of the wind And the deafening sound Of us never meeting again So I'll send you a postcard from the road Fall in love with me forever Or only for the few hours I'm here I wanna feel connected to you, or to something At least until the morning comes and I'm gone

Gravity 05:15
Feel my past is catching up to me I can't sleep at night I can't sleep at night All my dreams Seem to be impossiblities That plaugue my thoughts And I see That mistakes i've made and cannot erase All of love and hate Written all on my face Now I can't let go Can't let go of you And I wouldn't know If I l'd ever want to Watching my world crumble as I slowly fall apart Life had slowly atrophied the love that's in my heart Falling to the ground pushing down my deepest thoughts Holding on to a memory of you I guess what goes up must come down Will the slience come or will you make a sound The pull you have on me I can't escape I'll feel what's left of hope disintegrate Constantly unconscious just to feel your consciousness Constantly in dream state just to feel some happiness Slowly giving in, reaching out to emptiness Holding on to a memory of you This is just the laws of gravity Black holes pull apart what's left of me Particles create the pull we'll feel This is just the laws of gravity This is just the laws of gravity Black holes pull apart what's left of me Particles create the pull we'll feel This is just the laws of gravity

Fool's Gold 04:46
I flew across the world Just to tell you what I couldn't when we met The night I walked you home You flew across the world Just to see if you were ready to move on And discover what lingers Rearranging love on the beach at night Rearranging words on the canvas Trading countless grains from sands of time Trading gazes of our canvas So I'll give you fool's gold And I won't know how you'll take it Then you gift me with fool's gold And we know just where we'll take it You'll leave to start the future I'll follow where you lead Cause you're the only future That I'm believing in

about

As the title indicates, Time Capsule is a collection of past moments and listening to each track feels like sifting through a shoebox of polaroids or reading through a lost diary. Throughout the album, an imagined experience of traveling through memories is evoked through the utilization of layered, harmonized vocals, atmospheric synths, and experimental guitar riffs played in reverse. At the same time, Time Capsule is able to feel unassuming and approachable with danceable beats, smooth transitions, and catchy hooks.

JEAN couples this unique indie rock sound with potent lyrics in which he speaks poetically yet unflinchingly about his emotionally lowest moments and his journey towards feeling hopeful about life again. “I want my music to comfort others whether they’re happy or sad and let them feel whatever it is they need to feel at that moment.” The effect of Time Capsule is a product of JEAN’s lifelong love of songwriting and feels expressly intimate and moving.
