"Knowin' you is dirt and mud, rocks and trees and birds and stuff
Hot concrete and bright red cheeks
Cold water, ease my sunburn
Swimming in it, open wide
Ready for it, heavy tide like summer when you start to speak up
Cover me, c-cover me"
"I still can't think straight, at least it's summer
Wanted a clean slate (I got a sunburn)
Peeling my skin off, quite an eyesore
To see who's underneath me, but that's what I asked for

My heart the fucking wormhole man... This album does truly mean a lot to me.
"My heart the wormhole
And I'm back walking the streets with you again

You'd like us on top of a cake
But you won't let me take a bite"
"Well, I waited for you out here
But that was just delusional
And I've painted all these pictures
Of Earth, but that's unusual
Unusual to you"
Perfectly captures the restless, unrelenting, paralysing feeling of knowing deep down that you are fundamentally unlovable.
Utterly horrifying. Thank you Andy Shauf.
Claire's asking Charlie if we're hitting the town
He says, "We're making our way to the moon and we're taking off soon"

So I say, "I packed a spare"
I don't think it ... read more
