about

this song was written about a trip to pottsvile pa i took one day, i spent the trip thinking about a ridiculous crush i had at the time. i wrote this song to put that behind me.

lyrics

I don’t know why I’m doing this
But in my mind it just makes sense
Drive in my car
somewhere far
The two of us
You’re smiling at me
It probably means nothing
But I can’t shake it
All last winter I couldn’t shake it
So here I am
To let you know
I can’t let it go
But how could I possibly let you know?
Cuz I’m a loser in the end
I just can’t continue to play pretend
Because every time I hear that song
You’re in my mind
It feels stupid, it’s probably stupid, I’ll be stupid for you
Count on me I guess
I’m always second best
But at least you’ll keep me around
It feels stupid, it’s probably stupid, I’ll be stupid for you

If it doesn’t work
You know where to find me
Do all the drugs
I said I never would
Hide inside all day
Listening to wavves
We’ll make the gray
Fade away

And maybe you’re just waiting on me
Like I wait on the weather
It’s never better
I wish I could say something
The sun is out I’m new again
This song just ends
You’ll never know
It’s not right
I should quit while i’m ahead
It’s a lose lose
Always was always will
I fell apart again
“beach life-in death”
It’s just like he said
“I hope that you were looking for me”

it's venting, or maybe it's art or it might just be noise, or a waste of time, perhaps it is sacrilege, you tell me.
