about

For some reason, I was thinking about a drunken conversation about horoscopes I heard two people having at a house party in my junior year of high school. Completely mundane and inconsequential, so I ran with it.

lyrics

I've got drawers to fill and I've got time to kill. And I've got a whole mess of questions left for you. You've got wandering and you swear they're justified. And you say it's cause you're a water sign but I think horoscopes are bullshit.

We're not written in the stars. We can make up who we are. And reinvent ourselves in dim fluorescent light of crowded bars. You know who you are.

i've got gaps to bridge, and when I lie, you don't flinch. And we present edited versions of ourselves on backlit screens with dying batteries.

So if we are the words we choose, make me a gasoline-soaked fuse. I will burn bright and I'll explode into the night and you'll watch safely from the comfort of your room. And when that smoke spells out my name, you'll know exactly who to blame when you see me sprinkle down and settle on your bedroom windowpane.
