Lyrics:
I guess I shouldn’t hesitate
To learn all that I can, before it might be too late
I guess I thought I might’ve been there by now
I guess I didn’t know it’d be so hard
Telling my momma I’m gonna make you more proud
Telling myself that I don’t know how
As confusing as it seems, we all still have our dreams

One day I’m gonna wake up in me someday
Cause if I don’t, I’d rather not wake up at all
The hardest thing that I’ve learned
Is to love me even though it hurts
Cause not being able to love me just seems worse

And It can’t get worse than being ignored
I’m sick of being ignored, why was I always ignored?
I’m not standing here for my health
To my sisters, I have cried. For my father, I have died
And ever lover who’s put their fucking hands around my neck
Why aren’t you sorry yet?

One day I’m gonna wake up in me someday
Cause if I don’t, I’d rather not wake up at all
The hardest thing that I’ve learned
Is to love me even though it hurts
Cause not being able to love me just seems worse

Low, low, low. I’m sick of feeling so low, low, low
I’m tired of acting so hopeless. I’m sick of feeling so broken
Low, low, low. I’m sick of feeling so low, low, low
I’m tired of acting so hopeless. I’m sick of feeling so broken

We live to learn. We live to fight
And wait our turn, and do what’s right
As confusing as it seems, we all still have our dreams

One day I’m gonna wake up in me someday
Cause if I don’t, I’d rather not wake up at all
The hardest thing that I’ve learned, is to love me even though it hurts
And it still hurts. Even if it always hurts
Not being able to love me still seems worse

Lyrics:
For once in my life
I'm not feeling so static
not as apathetic 
You ain't bringing me down 
Yeah, you ain't bringing me down 
I-E-I-E-I won't deny you 
The time and the place, and the chance to save face
You were being an asshole 
You were being a dick
IF I'M YOUR FRIEND, THEN ACT LIKE IT 

So now every time I'm about to believe an excuse for the way you're treating me, I double check

I check in on myself, like "how's my mental health? When's the last time I smiled? Like, When's the last time I Laughed? Or fucking masturbated?!"

And I'm not trying to impress you, cause I shouldn't have to. 
I'm just loving myself, more than anyone else. 
Is there relief, I doubt it! 
I never get no sleep about it! 

Now every time I'm about to believe an excuse for the way you're treating me 
I assess...i consider my actions, what's feuling my habits, my patterns, and ask, 'what's my role in all this?'

See, it's easy to tell myself that it takes a lifetime to heal
It's easier telling myself that this pain isn't real

Where were you?! Where were you?! Where were you?! 
Where were you? Where WERE you? WHERE WERE YOU?! 

For once in my life, I'm not feeling so static, not as apathetic, you ain't bringing me down, yeah, you ain't bringing me down.

Static

Leave it to me to be alone,
in a town I hardly recognize without you by my side.
Lord I wish these memories would flee,
and take with them, the pain of remembering,
but I know, today is not that day.
I saw a sunflower tree in the middle of the yard and tore every flower from it 'fore I got back in my car and drove off,
Cheers to you, Cheers to us.

An old friend killed himself before the start of Spring,
I wonder if he left the weight of the world or if the weight of the world just left him hanging.
And who, could stand to lose another wink of sleep?
If the body bags there, it means somebody cares, and if somebody cares, then I guess you must be thinking of me.

Leave it to me to get strung out,
and freak everybody out then say, 'I won't do that again'
These days there's nobody here,
it feels surreal, so many years spent with kids I don't even think I know, do they know me?
Such addiction in this sickness, makes it hard just to exist,
when I can hear the words they do not say,
they HATE ME! HATE ME! HATE ME! LITTLE GIRL!
THEY THINK I'M JUST A LITTLE GIRL.

An old friend killed himself before the start of Spring,
I wonder if he left the weight of the world or if the weight of the world just left him hanging.
And who could stand to lose another wink of sleep?
If the body bags there, it means somebody cares, and if somebody cares then I guess you must be thinking of me.
I guess you must be thinking of me.

Disturbia Suburbia,
And I hope we all get out, and I hope we all feel free.

Medusa

Distrubia Suburbia

The highly anticipated junior release from Erin Incoherent displays her haunting melodies and gritty lyrics with unflinching honesty. It is an emotional and poignant project that narrates the life Erin has lived since releasing her 2018 masterpiece 'Medusa'. Not a release you should miss listening to. The songs are catchy and the questions the brooding rock star poses throughout the album bring the listener to their own doorstep of self-discovery. It is clear this release marks a new level for this talented performance artist/activist.

I thought it would be cool to give one of my songs an alternate version. Catch my album release November 30th to hear the original version of this song! This song is available for download/streaming on the platforms you subscribe to 🖤

Lyrics:
I can't seem to live my life consistently no matter how hard I've tried
and I don't know what's worse 
feeling like I shouldn't hurt 
or living so comfortably with pain that it's all I feel 
and all I look for 

This! Is my end of the world.
This! Is me falling apart again.
Yeah this! Is just towing the line for me 
Cause who'm I kidding? People never change Maybe this is just growing up 
Friendships keep falling apart for me 
So maybe it's naive to try to think 
that I should just be keep giving
no it's my turn 
give me time.

You're everywhere I wish you weren't 
You're with me every chance you can make it hurt these days
You make everything worse
I can't help being who I am 
Though I've tried so hard, I've failed at every turn and I-I don't know which is worse
 
They say your past can't define you but nowadays they try to undermine 
you

This! Is my end of the world.
This! Is me falling apart again.
Yeah this! Is just towing the line for me 
Cause who'm I kidding? People never change Maybe this is just growing up 
Friendships keep falling apart for me 
So maybe it's naive to try to think 
that I should just be keep giving
no it's my turn 
give me time.

This! Is my end of the world.
This! Is me falling apart again.
Yeah this! Is just towing the line for me 
Cause who'm I kidding? People never change Maybe this is just growing up 
Friendships keep falling apart for me 
So maybe it's naive to try to think 
that I should just be keep giving
no it's my turn 
give me time.
