about

Recorded in my basement this time. The cold outside wouldn't let my strings stay in tune, which is a problem I have often enough without that factor. So it sounds different.

8-| Deal with it

lyrics

I’m waking up in early afternoon.The day is sunny and bright. I imagine the air outside to be warm, but I’ve got no intention of finding out for sure. I’ve got memories of better days in my head. I’ve got 3 best friends across the hall, behind the door. I’m gonna wait till they leave before I get out of bed because I can’t expect them to care anymore.

I’ve got a strong urge to buy my own love, but I’ve got no money, and I’m shit out of luck. So now I’m hurting myself just to feel something else and not think about what I’ve become.

Daylight lasts for another hour or two, and there’s not much left to eat. The rooms are lined with music and photographs and swords and pictures from sitcoms that don’t come on anymore. But then someone comes home and turns on the light. I can’t believe I’ve been sitting in the dark this whole time.

It’s the sleeping man, ironically named because he can’t find the right time to doze. He stays up until the sun starts to dawn and dreams of running away so he sleeps with his shoes on.

And we’re hurting ourselves just to feel something else and not think about what we’ve become.
