lyrics
Pacing miles around this vacant room
Holding hands and taking turns reliving our childhood traumas
I’m the worst kind of person that you’re somehow obsessed with
Through depression we can coexist and still feel conflicted
All the question marks and made up words
They’re so claustrophobic and exhausting
Just to live another day
Throwing fists and slurping ramen From the bottom of the trash barrel
I can’t talk to you when you’re like this
Don’t you fucking understand that
You’re nothing like the flower girl I used to know
Walking through the dandelions and ripping out the all weeds
Each day that I am left here alone
It makes me cry knowing that you’re not around anymore
I know I’m a mess,
But I’m getting so much better at cleaning up after myself
Washing dishes with a dirty sponge Only temporarily fixes the problem
But the bigger picture is left framed
By the steel bars on the bedroom window
I just want to be alone
And watch the bats fly over the pond
I’ll contemplate my poor life choices Over a bland cup of water
Fill the glass with intention
And pour it right on the floor
Why am I merely an afterthought
In the eyes of your own self-destruction
Projecting years of self loathing
Onto a friendship that means nothing now
Well if I step out that door, I’ll be gone And none of this will be my problem anymore
But I still give a fuck about you
And don’t want to see it end up this way
I know I share the blame
And apologize for my past contempt and prideful shame
I know you deserve so much better, Than blacking out from all the alcohol
And I think I can see clearer now
Because of all the bullshit that got us here in the first place
With our feet in the ocean water
the foundation slips out from beneath
Today marks the anniversary of a life of getting sober
And learning to love again
With our feet in the ocean water
The foundation turns into nothing
Today marks the anniversary of a life of getting sober
And learning to love ourselves
Energetic math-rock riffs, gravelly punk vocals, and midwestern emo textures come together in cathartic fashion on the Oregon band's debut. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 11, 2023
