lyrics

I feel like I'm in a movie
walking out into the rain
in my exit from your bedroom
stealing more than I can take

I feel cornered when I hide every sad muscle in my face
trick is knowing when to shut your mouth

I feel shameful when I kiss you
I feel low and I feel high
I feel heavy, like I'm drowning
when I wake up in the night

I feel like I used to know you
and now I don't at all
still I let this stranger in my house

mostly I feel nothing
when I'm crawling into bed
when I'm curled up right against you
with your hands combing my hair
mostly I have disappeared
receded to my head
as you cradle me so gently
everpresent, ever there
and your eyes are getting heavy
while mine fix on the ceiling

I know you still got your hooks in
I still feel you reel me in
I feel like I almost shook you
but that habit didn't quit

still I scratch at you until I bleed
peel back all my skin
until I'm just an empty skeleton

mostly I feel nothing
my mind idling like the car
waiting in a Westfield parking lot
for an argument to start
I am somewhere in the middle
not quite near and not quite far
and I'm running for the exit
in a burning cinema
and you're staying for the credits
know exactly where you are

Voice that pierces and soothes like a butter thorn. Music slowly gliding over moonlit grass. Lyrics that depict and dissect a soul in such an intimate way that her soul becomes yours as yours becomes hers. muschiosauro

Songs about Friends

Folk-Punk?! What! Used to love them to the point where I embraced Markwell's self-destructiveness, self-pity, contempt towards her friends, and delusions of grandeur. Do you know why? she had the soul, genius, emotional whimsy and dare to meet us in a world where getting a dog tattoo is "too ambitious," James Joyce is an insult, and whoever says "no" to romantic advances gets crushed in the end. Let's just say, she has more bones to pick with the males than any other artist I'm aware of. OQ
