lyrics

Please don’t go dear.
I know you’re kind of unstable.
Sitting in a grocery mart,
trying to clean your stable you open up.
This is the verse where i re-rehearse your silly lies.

And I’d quit you,
but you just quenched my thirst and
looking back on time I could’ve done a little worse.
You’re on my mind.
I never sing, you’re always singing in the backseat.

Now I don’t know you.
And i tried just to quit it, but
you were too keen and all the time you were on my mind.
I had a dream last night that you died in a car crash -
a big fiery one in the back of that abandoned Ray’s parking lot
and i never knew you.

Well I got so hung up on those god damn Pitchfork reviews,
I forgot about the people, the people that could lose
their jobs and their buildings.
People climbing ceilings.
Well I’m giving up, but you’re nothing, hey!
