This will probably be on the album, Turtle, which will be done soon.
FORTRAN also plays this song now.
lyrics
Here I am
Drinking coffee alone in the kitchen
I don't feel anything
I'm trying to be the kind of person
Whose trash gets taken out on time
Who feels no need to apologize
But I know that I'm codependent
And I live off my fears
Will you still be here in a year
Here I am, aging gracefully.
Massachusetts Avenue is drunk tonight
Straight lines become swirling lights
This has been happening for years
But I'm not ready to be here
Someone tell me where to go
I'm codependent, I told you so.
Here I am
Feeling the need to do something stupid
Take my shoes off in the rain,
Jump in a puddle, traffic cone on my head, and proclaim.
I go out
And my friends are on fire
With their lack of concern
Where will they be in a year
Here we are
Trying not to age at all
Massachusetts Avenue is drunk tonight
Straight lines become swirling lights
When we got here we were just babies
Our heart are broken now
We deal with it differently
I wake up
In my bed still alive if nothing else
Cause I've tried and I've tried
To think of ways to end my life
But even a note about the terrible violence
Couldn't keep my heart silent
Where will I be in a year
Hopefully, I'll be aging gracefully
Massachusetts Avenue is drunk tonight
Straight lines become swirling lights
And I don't know what love is
We hold our loved ones tight
They have no idea how to treat us right.
