about

Recorded on a broken tape deck, which is the epitome of punk in my book

lyrics

I'm not supposed to be
Your little killing spree
A little isolated playground for you to ruin
I'm not the graffiti
You're carving in a tree
I'm not your hearts or little plus signs or forevers

I'm sick of listening to the same depressing music on repeat
I'm sick of dodging every inconvenient truth
I'm sick of dealing with your psychotic little outbursts
Your probing at this ever-loosened tooth

I guess we'll wait and see
What will become of me
If I keep on ignoring all our problems
So here's a toast to me
To life lived healthfully
To six more decades of your condescending nonsense

You're not a witch
You're not a problem
You just have a couple issues and no clear way to solve them
I understand
These things aren't planned
But you could try a little harder to cut back on your demands

You're not depressed
You're not a mess
You just have problems dealing with your loneliness
But it's not okay
To waste my day
Painting me pictures of emotional decay
