lyrics

Sitting in front of the TV
Dullness is a symptom of soberness
Yelling, screaming, and venting
Daily doldrums is a way of life

Awkward silence and awkward conversation
Put a blindfold on the past’s causation
“So what do you know?
“Not much, nothing new.”
“So what else do you know?”
“Same, nothing else has come thru.”
You call my phone and I simply ignore
You’re not at home, but in The Cowboy State banging a whore

“I’m going to Wyoming, happy birthday.”
“Alright later, safe travels on your way.”

I paint you, I paint you, I paint you
by Goth Lipstick

Songs like a dream, a secret, a heart open wide. This album welcomes you into a new world of melody and sincerity. A beautiful take on diy emo and bedroom pop. Nora Nygard
