This is probably the stupidest song I've written (lol). I kinda like it though! It's weird, people see it as fun and quirky, and I do to, but to me, I hear more....hmmm..desperation? It's a tinge bit sad too....I'm not really talking to anybody other than myself! At the end of the day, it's just a girl wanting something she's never had before....will she ever get it? We'll see! Thank you everyone for listening, and like I said previously, more music to come!

<3 hemlocke springs!

Lyrics:

You say I want to be your girlfriend
it wasn’t really in my plans
when you’re around, i got arrythmia
so in the end, i play pretend

You got *ugh*
of a cool dude
but you should know i like it hot
but if there’s really no denying what this is
then come on let’s give it a shot

whuh-uh ohh

you said i want to be your girlfriend
who said i want to be your your girl
you say i want to be your your girlfriend
well it all depends

you say i want to be your girlfriend
but do you want to be my man?
i’ll treat like you are a carry on
like you’re my one and only fan

my kindness is of a false pretense
i’ve got the ego of a god
but if you take me in your arms, be confident
i’d commit a character fraud
(stab stab stab)

whuh-oh ohhh

you said i want to be your girlfriend
who said i want to be your your girl
you say i want to be your your girlfriend
it wasn’t really in my plans

ehh eh

secretly i’m aiming for a rhythm that exceeds my expectations
am i ever gonna get it?

your girl is in the business so there’s little room for idle contemplation
(ya ya ya)

with you
oh whoa oh

(you said i want to be your girlfriend
who said i want to be your your girl oh
you said i want to be your your girlfriend
who said i want to be your your girl?)

you said i want to be your girlfriend
who said i want to be your your girl
you say i want to be your your girlfriend
it wasn’t really in my plans

girlfriend

I am
In trouble with myself again
I am
In trouble trouble trouble trouble
I am
In trouble with myself again
I am
In trouble trouble trouble

But I do believe
There's beauty within
That's why I can't stop
Picking my skin
Digging for a buried treasure
Digging for a way for me to

Say goodbye
To the stranger on the other side
Say hello
To the bliss of a
Disembodied mind

I am
In trouble with myself again
I am
In trouble trouble trouble trouble
I am
In trouble with myself again
I am
In trouble trouble trouble

But I do believe
There's a reason to live
That is why I'm gonna go
To sea in a sieve
Get me soaked and squeeze me through
Till there's nothing left to do but

Say goodbye
To the stranger on the other side
Say hello
To the bliss of a
Disembodied mind

I am
In trouble with myself again
I am
In trouble trouble trouble trouble
I am
In trouble with myself again
I am
In trouble trouble trouble

And I don’t believe
We could ever agree
That’s why I’ll do anything
To keep myself away from me
Maybe when I’m out of sight
I’ll see me in a better light

Eyes shut tight
Better get this right
Every word of the spell
To rip the soul from its shell

Say goodbye
To the stranger on the other side
Say hello
To the bliss of a
Disembodied mind

I am
in trouble with myself again
I am
in trouble trouble trouble trouble
I am
in trouble with myself again
I am
in trouble

Disembodied Mind

P.U.N.K. Girl

Rough time of year
Does it get to you too
When it rains and it rains
And your shoes never dry

I stay inside with my
Veins full of glue
And I stick to a screen
Till my battery dies

I don’t need to be rich
Only so wealthy as to pay for my food
I don’t need to be huge
Only so big as to ever be noticed

Rough time of year
Do you sit through it too
With that envy so strong
That you can’t even move

I must confess
An embarrassing truth
Almost nothing can hurt me
Like thinking of you

You’ve got a beautiful home
Bestselling novel and effortless style
You enchant the people around you
They swoon when you show even the hint of a smile

Rough time of year
Does it darken the doors
To the lofty salons
Of the luminaries

I wouldn’t know
I wouldn’t know
I only know
Weeks of godawful overcast days
Abstinence from sun on the skin
Drifting deeper and deeper into quarantine
Until my own company begins to wear thin

Envy

My man is a stagnant water,
a mud-your-linen, cacklin’ bogland
Waded in his iris to my knees
I bathed in his mouth overnight
We drank moonbeams from oily skies
Come dawn, he begged me, “Please, love, never leave”

Hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm,

I have hands for building altars,
Lips to pray to reckless gods
Yeah, I was made to be a devotee
His mangroves held me ‘till died
My body’s relic left behind
To fossilize beneath the willow trees

Hmm, hmm,
Hmm, Hmm,

Thrashing like Ophelia in my featherdown coat
Won’t someone teach me to love without it swallowing me whole
If to be loved is to be changed, I’m only worsenin’
Mosquito larvae in my ribs
He only loves me when I rot with him

I’m my father’s stubborn daughter
And I am no gentle lover
Only crown I wear is loyalty
My man is a stagnant water,
a mud-your-linen, cacklin’ bogland
And I’m forever stuck his bog body

Hmm, hmm,
Hmm, hmm

Dustan Townsend is more than just your typical roof climbing guru. He’s also quite possibly the best cello playing hippy from Victoria.

With a bow in his right hand and an ebony fretboard clutched in his left, Dustan has adventured far to bring his message of love to a wide audience.
