"It continues to amaze my how fickle the world has become. Popularity and fame are as fleeting as a firework. Over the last decade we get an inside look and learned just how downright awful a lot of these people are. Many put on a mask of decency while pushing messages of positivity so that people will buy their protein powder or whatever the fuck~

I feel awful when I do any sort of promotion. I don’t want people to think they need to buy merch, or they aren’t a good fan. I don’t want to be put on a pedestal and treated like an otherworldly being. But I would like to make a living. Is it fair to make money off my art when those that relate to it the most are barely scraping by? Does this all feel worth it to you?"

LYRICS

I hate the player and the game
Cause nothing ever stays the same
Well, who am I to point the blame? I do it everyday

Narcissistic pessimism
Self inflicted cataclysm
I memorized the catechism, so we should be fine

I hope that we might all get better soon
Or else they'll try to terraform the moon
I hope that this doesn't come off as rude
But you don't need another photoshoot

They say the world's a scary, fucked up place
They'll break your legs when you complain
Buy my merch and send me gifts
Subscribe to all my fucking shit
If you're not losing, I'm not eating

I am the player and the game
Electrify, assassinate
Assimilating with your hate
Cause that'll never change

Calculated media
Hell's encyclopedia
Flashy colors, higher numbers
Wrapped around my thumb

I hope that we might all get better soon
Cause this post isn't giving me enough views
When the fame dies out, I guess that I'll die too
Entry level job interview on Zoom

They say the world's a scary, fucked up place
They'll break your legs when you complain
Buy my merch and send me gifts
Subscribe to all my fucking shit
If you're not losing, I'm not eating


I'm not the player or the game
I'm not one to evacuate
I've seen the future, lived the past
I don't think it'll ever pass

I know that big top carnie crap
You think that I would fall for that?
I refuse to ever suck up
I think it's cute you think you're tough

The numbers, numbers prove your worth
Greatest on the planet earth
King of all the punks and mods
Bow down to your fucking god

Check on me when you wake up
Don't sleep on me, it's not enough
Listen up, I'll make you better
Burn that ugly knitted sweater

I control your minds
Your filthy, stupid lives
Never tell you lies
Smile and comply

"On the first date with my partner they kept telling me about how they wished they could visit “home”. For them home was Phoenix, Arizona. I thought was deeply moving since they had been living in Chicago for 5 years at that point, yet still saw Arizona as “home”. It got me thinking about what “home” truly is and what it meant to me. Eventually, I think I figured it out. 

For me there is nothing more fun than a DIY punk show. The energy, the comradery, the art, the music, all of it sends shivers up my spine. I can’t express how much I love playing my music for strangers in a foreign place, seeing faces light up, watching punks dance to my acoustic guitar, meeting people, and feeling like I belong. When I’m at a show with my people, that’s when I’m truly home."

LYRICS

If home is where the heart is, I guess you're barely ever home
Because home for you is 400 miles west of El Paso
I guess your situation ain't that bad holding up in Chicago
But it certainly ain't home

If home is where the heart is, maybe you and I should go
See an Arizona winter, hopefully this year it snows
You're a desert girl in a crowded world and you just regained control
And you’d rather just stay home
Rather just stay home

(Two, three, four)

If home is where the heart is, I gotta get out of Chicago
Pack my bags, grab all my friends, and fuckin' hit the road
Everyday would be a party with lemonade and punk rock shows
And I’d finally be home
Finally be home
I'd finally be! Home
I'd finally be! Home
I'd finally be home
