i recorded this first on cassette tape, then recorded the cassette tape recording with my iPhone. It'll do as a lo-fi track!
lyrics
is this one of those times were you tell me i’m good
and i listen to you a little more than i should
then I go back home and write a new song
about loving a city where i can’t stay long
then it goes online and gets twelve hits
in a whole week so it must be shit
so you wanted me to write this
but you don’t want to hear it
wish i had something better for you to read to know
now i’m stuck in a town where i don’t want to be
cuz i’m super fucked financially
and i took a job in the theater
where the high school kids are weird
i remember last year when i was so full of life
now it’s been twelve months and i’m back in the grind
hear my cry
I will drain the atlantic with a straw
then you’ll tell me I’m worth it, you’ll tell me I’m raw
currently I’m filling envelopes and holy smokes it’s fine with me
yesterday i spent my afternoon with tunes and playing make believe
all i wanted was to write this, but i don’t want to sing it
i’ll put it on cassette tape and hand it to my friends
then it’s one of those times where they tell me i’m good
and i listen to them a little more than i should.
