my favorite song. the last, best, and most important song recorded for lowfidelity.
lyrics
[verse]
i’ve been shaking in vain
can barely through the day
the space bar on my computer is broken
i went for a walk, i left the door wide open
couldn’t see it then
can barely see it now
i couldn’t read the signs
and now its just another long story filled with sighs
[chorus]
holy shit i haven’t heard from you in months
i moved far away and cut off everyone i love
you dont have any right to be upset with me
im not the one who asked for all this lowfidelity
[verse]
when it stopped snowing
the dead grass grew back
and i think it’s your turn to ask me how it’s going
not that i’ve been keeping track (i totally haven’t)
the nonlinear narrative is over but those were the longest 2,344 days of my life
and when you have the option to get out, take my advice
don’t think twice
things will get better
but not before
they get far more worse
than they have ever been
good luck out there
[chorus]
holy shit i haven’t heard from you in months
i moved far away and cut off everyone i love
you dont have any right to be upset with me
im not the one who asked for all this lowfidelity
[interlude]
i am no longer capable of forming meaningful relationships with the individuals around me, if i ever was
the people around me are just faces and bodies, they have become shapes and colors, as i have come to only care about this body of work
i’m not the same person i was one year ago
maybe it’s not that i’m incapable of forming relationships with people
but that i no longer desire to
i can go days without leaving my room now
whereas back then i felt obligated to spend time with others
[bridge]
i know i said that i would quit
i said a lot of things
i said that i’d move on
but the feeling really stings
i was living in the dark
way back in the spring
i swear you made me numb
but tonight i’m feeling things
finally i’ve quit
ive quit a lot of things
i’ve finally moved on
but the feeling really stings
i was living in the dark
ill wake up in the spring
i swear you made me numb
but right now i’m feeling things
[chorus]
holy shit i haven’t heard from you in years
i moved far away and cut off you and all my peers
you have every right to be upset with me
but i didn’t ask for all this lowfidelity
wait, so you’re telling me john knew how to play drums this whole time?
