when you leave my eyes grow darks
drowning in empty space
incessant thoughts dont subside
next to ugly angels that should have died
depression comforts me
in my favorite misery
jesus died here with you and me
hallelujah 
flowers grow in yr sin
light fills you from within
rats look nice tied around yr skin
rats look nice biting on yr skin
jesus christ will you make me numb
jesus christ will you shut up

Numb

"First Love / Late Spring" is a digital single from Mitski, a wonderful new addition to the DDW family. Full length LP coming this Fall/Winter.

Mitski :: First Love / Late Spring

Elvis Depressedly - Rock N' Roll

We're Finally Landing

There's no mystery behind the title - I recorded the various guitar parts over a 'backing' track that happened to have an effect on it. This is perhaps the most direct I've ever been lyrically and so whatever title I came up with seemed to cheapen it - and so 'backing w/effect' remained. Recorded in early 2003.

Backing w/Effect

Recorded in Ramsgate in early 2007. It's recorded on a classical guitar with steel strings.

Evermore

Written whilst sitting next to the River Weaver, early summer 2002. It's not a harmonica by the way, it's a pitch pipe.

New York Harbour

An anti-war song I suppose. Recorded onto my friend Simon's digital eight-track in late 2003.

Our Gold, Their Blood

Borderline

Julia

Under the waterfall
I can't breathe
If this keeps up at all
I'll disappear.

What's it like in outer space?

Give me the simple life
Nobody around
Falling in circles
Never hitting the ground.

What's it like in outer space?

What's It Like In Outer Space?

Just a bunch of random, stupid, weird, and mostly half-joking song ideas.
