lyrics

I’m kicking the clothes that line my bedroom floor and stretching the ties that bind me here. I’m shaking the dust off September so far. A mental health day that spans a year. I scribble down false prophecies, cardinal sins and deadbeat dreams. You give off a glow now. I know you’re looking out for me. Stellar and spaced out. It’s the only way that I know how to be. I’m calling old friends to make sure they’re real and taking the lines from my favorite songs. If good artists borrow but the great ones steal, have I been doing this all wrong? I illustrate my indolence. A past that prowls in the present tense. You give off a glow now. I know you’re looking out for me. Stellar and spaced out. It’s the only way that I know how to be. A soft-edged light. A slender frame. Apparitions whisper my name.

at this age reminded me of the naive optimism of high school. dent is more like the college student who tries to remain optimistic in the face of a world that contradicts itself at every turn. fartintheelevator

"you don't get to tell me oh it ain't so bad" -this line is empowering for me. hope to here more classic punk guitar riffs in the future as in "we drive forever like it's nothing" fartintheelevator
