about

song i wrote when i was drunk.

written. recorded. edited. all drunk.

lyrics

Something felt better,
Something felt worse.
In another distant galaxy,
Where you and I weren't cursed.

by situational irregularities.

Something about the way,
You wrote me by name,
And something about the words,
You accessed in your brain.

Like a separate universe raised you,
On Sophie's World and Wikipedia

I thought you'd be the last drug I'd ever need.
But now I'm partly seeing a bit part differently.
Since we were always running away,
Instead of chasing our dreams

Falling apart once felt better,
When I thought I was the greater half.
Since I'm not writing songs for you,
But someone just like you.

All the dependent aggravation,
Made it harder to see!
Now it's just a part
of our winding history.

It was rose covered glasses,
Just as you predicted.

Chemical love isn't something you force.
It doesn't come in with prescription,
It sprouts when I know you more...

Or maybe it depletes.

What's the half life of crushing anyway?

I thought you'd be the last drug I'd ever need.
But now I'm partly seeing a bit part differently.
Since we were always running away,
Instead of chasing our dreams

Falling apart once felt better,
When I thought I was the greater half.
Since I'm not writing songs for you,
But someone just like you.

I use to pray...
May you be the last drug I ever need
May you be the last theme I ever dream
May you feel so good in my lungs,
And so at home in my blood.
