about

An older song about an older relationship that was lingering in my head today. Sometimes, writing a song is the most cathartic thing you can do.

lyrics

It was on a roof in June 2009 where I found you stripped of all your sobriety but in tune with it all. Was what that goddamn line I used to make you think I was worth it?

These days I get stoned by the sunrise & I get blacked out on both eyes. I float in symmetrical repeating patterns. You don't answer, and that's fine. So while I'm hugging the coastline, you'll be brushing me off like you always do.

Appalachian girl, I wonder just what will become of you. You see the world through a lens that blocks out everyone you knew. And I know that it's different for everyone but you. I don't even recognize your reflection now.

I dwell in attics and basements. You'll show up and leave with those kids that you came with. I'll be inside, tracking dirty shoes through your new home. I hope you find somewhere else, dear, and I hope even more that it's far away from here. You'll be lingering in my head like you always do.

So illustrate my name in antique picture frame.
Dress me up to be something I can stand to see.

It's not romantic at all, no. It's just a blow to the ego. You are an excommunication professional. I guess I won't hear from you now until you figure it out. Sit tight. You know what they say about objects in motion, well, they stay in motion.
