lyrics

had a corneal ulcer
I went under full of synthesizers
from carsick music where there was no movement
age 13, Mom drove me up to Milwaukee

to get a hot needle in the eye
you’ll think you’ll wanna die
you’ll think you’ll wanna die

stand on the toilet for tenth time while high
sing “I Hate Myself and I Want to Die”
if I could get away and be me
me without the complacency

the time your Mom and Dad came from
you’ll think about and start to cry
you’ll think you’ll wanna die
you’ll think you’ll wanna

receive that shock and get it good too
from having those 1950s wife blues
if she received the shock then I do too
from having those 1950s wife blues

saying if you travel in time
and turn into a 1950s wife
you’ll think you’ll wanna die
you’ll think you’ll wanna die

These recordings feel knowingly classic but gently break through to make their own impression. Truly well crafted/produced songs with the right blend of skilled instrumentation and expressive lyricism. Mary of Rain and Tickets and Tapes are my favorites. a leaf
