These are five tracks we’ve poured ourselves into - emotionally, creatively, and technically. The lyrics are incredibly personal, and we spent a lot of time building up layers with guitars, percussion, and backing vocals. It’s taken real dedication to reach the sound we had in our heads. It’s been a challenge, but the end result feels honest and powerful.
We feel it represents a good cross section of our various sounds and styles and we hope you enjoy!

LYRICS:

Like a pervert on a crowded bus the glare of love bears down on us Like a carcass left out in the heat this love is bursting out of me 

Disappointing diamonds are the rarest of them all
And a love that lasts forever really can’t be that special
Sure we know our roles
And how it’s supposed to go
Does everybody have to be the greatest story ever told? 

Like an oil tanker tipped at sea this love’s contaminated me
Like a constant twitching in my eye this love of ours will never die 

Disappointing diamonds are the rarest of them all
And the love that lasts forever really can’t be that special
Sure we know our roles
How it’s supposed to go
Does everybody have to be the greatest story ever told?

LYRICS: 
I know a few ten-cent words I can break out to keep up with her
But You can take what I know about love and drown it in the sink 

I know my way ‘round a tune
Won’t be a single dry eye in the room
But You can take what I know about you and maybe fill a small balloon 

But I’m just dumb enough to try
To keep you in my life for a little while longer
And I’m insane enough to think
I’m going to get out with my skin and start my life again 

I’m no stranger to the female form 
Oh, I’ve been here a few times before 
But You could have me any time. 
Everything’s cool, I’m great, it’s fine 

But I’m just dumb enough to try
To keep you in my life for a little while longer
And I’m insane enough to think
I’m going to get out with my skin and start my life again

Just Dumb Enough to Try

Father John Misty
