i guess you were right,
you're just too busy for me.
i guess you were also right
about what we are:
we're chemical swirls that look like rainbows;
kerosene spills causing trouble for the locals.
you're oh so busy
drawing pictures of other men naked.
"they're really good."
good pictures or good men?
well i'm not so-
i'm not so sure myself, maybe you could help?
well the storm's passed.
but the cloud's won't.
and i'll be surprised
if i ever see a world without clouds again.
WE'RE CHEMICAL SWIRLS THAT LOOK LIKE RAINBOWS!
KEROSENE SPILLS CAUSING TROUBLE FOR THE LOCALS!
for the record,
even if i could hate you, i wouldn't.
contrary to popular opinion.
relatively you're not that bad.
WE'RE CHEMICAL SWIRLS THAT LOOK LIKE RAINBOWS!
KEROSENE SPILLS CAUSING TROUBLE FOR THE LOCALS!

ghost stories

why can't you ever see
the forest for the trees?
or the mountain for the sun setting behind it?
the sun sets on us,
and we have no choice
but to accept it.

it's been a year it's been a long time coming.
ghost stories keep fucking me around.
it's been a year it's been a long while coming.
these ghost stories keep fucking me around.
i'm not alive in in the way that i used to
(i'm not alive in the way that i used to be)
i don't live like the way that i want to
(i don't live like the way that i want to live)
it's been a while since i've felt new
(it's been a while since i've felt used)
it's been a year it's been a long time coming.
these ghost stories keep fucking me around.
i thought that it was supposed to get better.
(i thought that it was supposed to get better)
i didn't realise that it had to get worse first.
(i didn't know that it had to get worse first)

it's been a year since i found out that you died.
it's gone by so fast it almost feels like nothing should've changed.
everytime i feel like leaving this planet i wonder where you've gone.
i wonder if i'd join you.
i wonder where you were buried i don't know if you were buried
i just keep trying to write a carissa's wierd song.
i just keep trying to fill the gaps now that you're gone.
i just keep trying to write a carissa's wierd song.
i just keep trying to fill the gaps now that you're gone.
are you lying still?
are you there still?
are you there still?
told you i'd always be here,
so now i'm here still.
so now i'm here, still.
for so long i just wanted to be like you.

breathe in breathe out don't let it get to you
they're gonna stare at you,
you give them something to look at.
they're gonna stare at you you give them something to think about.
they'll give you something to cry yourself to sleep to.
(carry a knife well i bet they do)
(something to cry about)
they'll give you something to cry yourself to sleep to
(put the cd in the tray and get to your routine)
they'll give you something to cry yourself to sleep to
half-watched movies-
half-watched movies and full packs of cigarettes
my friends drop acid but i could never be like that
i'm not like you

surely there's gotta be something more to life than playing gran turismo in bed,
slamming energy drinks cus i stay up late with you.
you're my only friend, you're the only one i've got.
i could talk to you for hours and i-
every day i do.
you're the only one that i don't think hates me;
you're the only one that i don't think hates me.
i'm sorry
that i double-text, but i can't help it.
you're just the ONLY ONE THAT I'VE GOT LEFT
and i don't wanna lose you, i don't wanna lose you too.

feeling funny
feeling weird.
starting to contemplate how difficult it would be to disappear.
i'm looking for you
in every alleyway i see.
the river's flooding, the paths are overrun with cow parsley.
i see the gravestones.
they're climbing out of the ground.
the names and dates are faded,
my grave's covered with weeds and rocks,
that's what you're supposed to do.
that's what you're supposed to do.
that's what they say to do.
the flowers will all rot and die,
much like you and i , my love.
that's not what we're supposed to be thinking of.
feeling funny
feeling weird
starting to think about how difficult it would be to raise a kid
out in the desert, although i'd hate it there.
i drink too much water,
my mother says it'll kill me someday,
she says it's exactly what you do on MDMA
that's what you're supposed to do.
the flowers will all rot and die,
much like you and i, my love.
that's not what we're supposed to be thinking of.

i'm struggling to feel real,
i'm struggling to feel alright,
but i'm not sure that if that's what you wanna hear.
so i'll keep quiet tonight.
i'll keep quiet tonight.
sat outside
the stars'll take care of me tonight
they'll take good care of me tonight
therapy is a competition
everyone wants to be the one who says the right thing
the thing is, it's not that easy.
it's not as easy as i once thought.
i need to get my life together
need to get my life together
but it's not as easy as that
it's not as easy as i once thought.
it's not as easy as i once thought.
"it's not as easy as i once thought" -
that's not what you want to hear.
that's not what you want to hear tonight,
so i'll keep quiet, for tonight.
the stars'll take care of me tonight.
the stars'll take good care of me tonight.
they're taking good care of me,
i don't feel real
i don't feel real
i don't feel real
i don't feel real
but they're taking good care of me
i'm struggling to feel real
i'm struggling to feel alright
i'm not sure if that's what you want to hear
so i'll keep quiet for tonight
i'll keep quiet
i don't feel real
i don't feel real
i don't feel real
i don't feel real

(top secret and confidential diary readings:
something about slamming doors and ghosts and self-destructive tendencies;
depression and wanting physical touch but also being terrified of it;
trying to dissect why people are (not) attracted to me through the lens of intense self-loathing;
victimhood and turning people away;
trying to figure myself out.
)
you have now finished listening to weatherfield's chemical swirls that look like rainbows. we hope you enjoyed your stay.
