lyrics

I’ve been hearing stories of your demise
Wonderin if youre still alive
We’ve made mistakes we’ve had our fights
I’ve always hoped that you’d survive

We first met when I was nineteen
Shooting heroin and huffing gasoline
Now i’m older and I’ve gotten clean
Can’t say the same for you but I hope that we can meet

In my mind, my reality, is a prison.
Out to get me, my sanity just isnt.
Just pull up a spot, don’t rob me if im not
As Entertaining, these days

I’ve been reading obituaries looking for your name
Can’t say I’ve found it yet and I hope that stays the same
Heard you still might be alive
Probably still overdosing, but perhaps you’ll be revived

It’s a messy sad world that we live in
Sometimes I too want to give in
But just remember you are love love loved
Keep on fighting, keep on loving, even though life is tough.

A queer folk punk album that brings the anxieties and the insecurities of the trans experience to the forefront. The instrumentals and vocals really sell the concept of this album. Wonderfully vulnerable or full on rage in others. The blood, sweat and tears put into this album is very clear. Some of her best work yet! arvemis

This Glasgow band is less straightforward or formulaic than many others currently treading the '80s post-punk path. These songs are winged. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 22, 2017
