WAXAHATCHEE - Bathtub

This Moment Feat. dandelion hands

i just want to be equals, be equals, be equals
without all the feeble attempts to hurt you
because that’s not what i want
but if you needed some space you should have told me
the only thing you told
was butterflies and hold me when it’s cold
to anyone who’s willing to be warm
reacclimate to someone who is better than i was
but i don’t want to think of what he does
no i don’t want to think of what he does

jesus christ, i don’t want to think before i die
i don’t want to be the one sacrificed for what you did 
and oh my god, the doors are closing quicker than i thought
with fear that i’ll become the person that you are
we were just kids
roll call in a home room
then class we didn’t go to
because we’re leaving after lunch
to anywhere that we could sit alone and talk
i only wish that we had known when we were young
that sometimes people want to die
and that’s alright

but is it alright
to spend these six whole months that i thought i was fine
and i know you did everything to just keep me alive
and i know, i know there’s nothing left for you here

i want to be equals, be equals, be equals
i just never imagined a future without you
and i guess that’s my fault

equals

you said okay

saturday dec 14 2013

bubble boy, an insignificant cell on a strangers body. a nobody, with no purpose, but i’ll still find a way to draw parallels to who looks better with their shirt off. now it feels like the world is spinning too quickly and sometimes i just can’t fucking believe that i’m here right now. please, i’m begging you to compare me to someone else. spit in my mouth,  then on my chest. let me taste you so when you’re gone i’ll know exactly what i’m missing. it’s 1am and i want to be apart of you in ways you’ll only bring up when you talk shit on me years later. until then i’ll kiss your stretch marks, and you’ll run your fingers across old scars, and together we’ll repeat 'i love you' until the mirror breaks.

the root of my problems doesn’t have a root at all. it isn’t a string or trail of bread crumbs i can follow back to a single moment. it isn’t a suppressed thought, it’s a voice that convinces me my thoughts are worth suppressing in the first place.

we'll repeat 'i love you' until the mirror breaks

don’t hold your tongue
i know we’re done
i’m not an idiot
there’s no coming back
from where we’ve been
and who we’ve been with
but these are not the people
we thought that we would touch
and i’m scared that if i see you
i’ll start missing you too much

i know i felt like home
a year ago
when this was new
we’ll learn who we are
when we drift apart
when we drift
but when did we become so old
tomorrow i turn twenty four
and i’m still chasing the dreams
we had in high school

now we’re clinging onto objects
that someone else had touched
in hopes that we still smell them
in the fabric and the dust
i took the book you wrote me
and i tore it into shreds
but i still keep it in a shoe box
in a space next to my bed
i want to hold you until i’m empty
and i’ve got nothing left
so when you let me go
could you do it slow

and i’m sorry that i went away
i just needed some time to make
the pain into something
you can hold

you're a mess in public

shout out to nick longo and rachel visitacion aka the other 2/3 of the fishermen narcs for all of their help with the song

you can get this song on cassette, among other classics, on dandelion hands is dead!! vol1 from my homies over at drip tapes http://driptapes.storenvy.com/products/11177292-dandelion-hands-is-dead-vol-1-cassette

what's the earliest bill murray has ever gotten drunk? (ft. the fishermen narcs)

i don't know this is just a song i wrote today

its okay

stronger than you

recycled air (postal service cover)

electric feel (mgmt cover)

sleepyhead (passion pit cover)

seal girl cover

call me maybe (carly rae jepsen cover)

give me back my sweater

i clung to you hoping we'd both drown

my heart goes bum bum bum

i don't know if i'll be back this time seawolf cover

repeat to yourself that they're not really gone
time has proven that fooling yourself into believing
a lie is the most effective way to deal with
things you have no control over

keep listening to the mixtapes they made you
overanalyse every single word you hear
"was this a sign that things were going wrong"
no no, you were the one that cared too hard, not them

stay up every single night staring at your phone
either attempting to gather up the courage to
turn these demons, these constant reminders of
your loneliness into nothing more than a bad dream
or praying just for one second you could feel
the warmth of equally returned love

go out for coffee four times a week by yourself
always bring your notebook, never stop writing
leave little comics and thank you notes with your tip
watch them smile as you get in your car

always talk down on yourself whenever possible
my life is shit because i deserve it, right?
you must have done something real bad
its nearly impossible for you to cry now

avoid your friends for weeks even though
they're the only sense of consistency you have
left in your life, if they really wanted
to see you they'd come, but they won't (who cares?)

allow yourself to lose interest in the things you love
watch as you begin to take a backseat to the
world around you, don't fight it
become a secondary character in your own motion picture

but most importantly drown every single one of
your feelings in old stolen rum, learn to
love the taste of it dripping down your throat
find comfort in the warmth coming from your
stomach, you're drinking bottled love now

you don't need other people to drive away your loneliness
you just needed to find a way to talk to it
