about

we have selective memories. if only we could tell truth from lies, good from bad.

lyrics

have you let someone tattoo you half to death
cause i have, i have.
and i’d be lying if i said i didn’t miss the buzz
but i can’t lose that much
i’m losing all my blood.

we all have regrets
and i lather up in mine
nobody knows why
it’s ‘cause i’m rather dry

spitting at you, rum-tongue at a party
sitting, waiting for someone to ask me
if i love you
which i do
living with your entire history
fed up, i never liked a mystery
i know you, but do i know you?

if i could find the ashes in the sand
maybe i could begin to understand
how you can forget the best days of your life
how i can forget the worst days of my life

we both languish on the floor
when we’re in love
pick me up
cause i’m done

i never, never mind, oh never mind
your pick-me-ups and lines.
oh, never mind.

have you met someone who covered your tattoos?
well, fuck you.

fuck you.

ditch to the safety of doorstep
wishing you’d notice that i had left you
or at least tried to
living with all your favorite songs
hearing them in my dreams
and you’re golden
would you just go then?
