We recorded this one and I'm Wide Awake It's Boring with our new drummer Nick in the Spring of 2014. Lodin's exit sucked, especially because I couldn't sing worth a shit hah. The song title is a reference to the movie Heavyweights that Cam and I loved as kids.
lyrics
Juanita, things aren't going as smoothly as I'd hoped. I try to catch my breath but I only choke. In my head, I walk through Zachary's old neighborhood. I need another warm reminder that I didn't always feel this way. I didn't always feel this way. It's shitty how it all turned out with the things we don't talk about. Our parents, they did their best, but it won't stop the aching in our chests. Sometimes I feel like I'm not enough. I know that I can be an asshole, but I'm growing up on borrowed time. How can I love someone when I don't love myself?
