Lyrics
if i could cure anything i would cure loneliness
i would be a ♀ in love
but i cannot bloom in the dark of my room
the sorrow is spreading from heart to gut
i'm stuck here by myself
witness ♀ love someone else
i was promised a valentine's day
this is not who i will be
i'm hot and i'm cool and i do great in gym
should i get new hobbies or get better friends?
perhaps i should parlo italiano
ciao bella, vaffanculo¹
i'm stuck here by myself
witness ♂ love someoene else
i was promised a valentine's day
this is not who i will be
i need a bar of soap to place inside my mouth
clean up all the filth that i keep puking up
who wants to hear me complain?
it's not self-aware or interesting,
witness me circle the drain
tick-tock² my time away
if i could cure anything i would cure loneliness
i would be a ♂ in love
but i cannot bloom in the dark of my room
the sickness has spread into my lungs
i'm stuck here by myself
witness ⚥ love someone else
i was promised a valentine's day
this is not who i will be
fuck³

Song Notes
oh no i started this album with an acoustic song? w̶h̶y̶,̶ ̶t̶h̶o̶u̶g̶h̶?̶
don't blame me... this was my friend Alan's idea
he liked the song and i was going to leave it off!!
are there other songs i wanted more? maybe :O
but i also like taking ~creative risks~
i also like how this song flows into the next... good dynamic buildup!!
look there were too many songs to cut, i was going crazy killing my babies
so what's this song about?
uhh well it's about being AWESOME
but NO ONE LIKES YOU ANYWAYS
do i relate to these lyrics? no, i suck at the gym
i did, however, totally fucking flunk Italian in college
(i was required to take a language, please leave me alone)
but now i can go to Patrizi's in Austin
and pronounce everything on the menu correctly
and i can write a joke
and put it in a song
Recording Notes
i wanted to record at least one song without a click track
this one was done guitar+voice together
it's so weird how things like that can make a big difference
Next: i want to be special to you (and only you)
