A song recorded for a four way split with Statuette, Trophy Wives, and Ugly Cuts that never saw the light of day. We wrote a bit heavier than usual in hopes to mesh with the other bands.
lyrics
Are you happy now? You've finally got what you wanted. I give up completely. I can't sleep when you still fucking haunt me. I don't want to hear the sound of your voice in my head going over and over. In my dreams you're still here with me. We sing the same old songs, like we were striving for so much more. Between the hunger pains and wage slave life it's no wonder I want to stay inside. You wrecked your car the other day, part of me was glad you were okay, but most of me wished you forgot your seatbelt so you could know just how I've felt. Do you feel this? Does it comfort you? It's late September, all of our friends are crammed inside my tiny apartment. You blow out your candles and then you turn to me. Feel this? I don't. I tried, you won't.
