about

a song from 2016,
partially about love,
partially about rejection,
but mostly about letting go of both.

Recorded with a Panasonic RS-260us.

Special thanks to Chris H. and the numerous sadboy snaps he sent me in which he was listening to this song.

~~oh yeah~~ and also A****a for taking the subway back home at 1:45 AM.

lyrics

One night stands are awfully awkward,
but you don't have to leave right after.
I wouldn't mind hearing your life-pans
or enjoying a bit more laughter.

I should have asked her, "stay the night?"
Her skin was soft, her voice was nice;
though instead I'm
alone in bed
ignoring my
advice

~to~

not fall for girls who
seem cooler than you
who have lots of tattoos
and love the bands you do.
Don't hate yourself
if they want someone else—
when you're stuck on the shelf
at least there's not much to lose.

Often oscillating temptations
from climaxes to relationships
—sometimes, I do miss them,
though other times, I'd rather be...

alone, at home, thinking to myself
"why do I look for love
from everyone,
with one exception
that being
myself.

~so~

Don't fall for girls who
seem cooler than you
who have lots of tattoos
and love the bands you do.
Don't hate yourself
if they want someone else—
when you're stuck on the shelf

~~at least there's not much to lose.~~
