Joe Waters this is as good as early car seat headrest honestly; relatable lyricism, interesting production, just a really great idiosyncratic album - so glad I stumbled upon this again by accident Favorite track: holding hands forever (king wrong).

better 02:21
on the day that I came back I did not feel any better everything was just the same my open drawers, my unread letters my bags were packed my room was bare on the day that I go back I swear to god, I will do better on the day that I went home I left without a single word everything was quiet then nobody heard, and nothing learned my bags were packed my room was bare on the day that I come back I swear to god, it will be better

bring me the head of last summer life's too short to ever bother your apartment is haunted now frozen solid and burning down empty closets in empty rooms broken windows and rotten fruit lying down on a stranger's bed sleeping sound like we never left I'm amazed that we got so far it's human nature to fall apart close to tears in your freezing room throwing up till you couldn't move pushing down on my aching back staying out till the air turns black goodbye river and goodbye water I'll be back when the snow has started pick me up from the edge of town don't say nothing just drive around it's okay you don't want to go it's human nature to stay at home

I don't know if I will ever hit the ground I don't know if there's any way around I don't know if it is worth what it costs I don't know if I will ever not be lost as if I have a choice I don't know if there's a place for you and me I don't know if there's a time for you and me I don't know if it will ever be better than this I don't know if it will ever be better than this that's all that there is there's nothing waiting on the other side of the line there's no-one perfect and we've all just been wasting our time a black sky and a million miles of trains I don't know if I will ever see you again I hope you'll be okay

a wish 00:58
a wish made every night to be calm all the time lie in bed awake please for heaven's sake don't give up on this I want you to live and be calm all the time if you don't that's fine but don't give up on this I want you to live and be calm all the time

nevermind 00:54
we never grew up we never fell in love nevermind we never got married we never had kids nevermind you thought I had died but I'm still alive in the back of your mind you thought I had died but I am reborn in the back of your mind nevermind

i exploded 04:15
I came home on a weekend not too long ago now I'm back at zero I never thought I'd fall this low I haven't started on my dreams yet I haven't caught my break two weeks in a wasteland it's enough to make a grown girl shake I wanna hide in my bedroom I wanna run away just a couple of days to deny my fate I will not pretend that I will be okay in the end there is nothing only life and space like a rocket to the sun I will come undone philomaths will beat a hole into my brain only then will I come up begging god for air if I cave in daily will he remember that I'm here we close now on a light note there must be some way out I'm coming up now like a big black cloud it'll take more than this life to keep me down
8.
you make me happy living so easy and dying not scary and you won't forget me I tell you I want you it comes back to haunt you you wake up crying cos you think I'm lying every new season I find a reason to tell you I love you I love you
