Name: Less About You, More About Self Loathing
Duration: P00H01M54S
Description: Fun fact(s): this song was written about a dream that I had. My friend Paige Bailey (who recorded violin for the last track) made an art piece for a school project that I still have displayed and cherish, based around the lyric "whenever I open my mouth train wrecks come out". When I say "mouthing the words" it is referring to quietly singing along to at the drive-in songs.

Fun fact(s): this song was written about a dream that I had. My friend Paige Bailey (who recorded violin for the last track) made an art piece for a school project that I still have displayed and cherish, based around the lyric "whenever I open my mouth train wrecks come out". When I say "mouthing the words" it is referring to quietly singing along to at the drive-in songs.

lyrics

I think that I should do something once in a while to scare the shit right out of me. So I'll close my eyes and sit tight in this trunk and see where your nightmare takes us. That's a start, is it not? My middle name may as well be "mundane". Sure, I'm resourceful, but not when it counts. Count me out. If I'm not asleep in the backseat, then I'm silently mouthing the words. I don't know how to speak. My gravest apologies for wasting any time... Whenever I open my mouth, train wrecks come out. I can sense a mistake from miles away, yet I make them. Still, I make them.
