lyrics
I’ll be honest
I promised to be
so yes I dodged your questions for weeks
but past is the past!
I’m over all that,
and now I’m taking every step to come clean
that’s how I wore out
my favorite shoes
some kid once told me I could make those into flower pots
but they took up space
so I threw them away
I don’t “get” flowers, anyway
so drenched in sweat,
is it this guilty complex?
No–no, I just sat in the sun too long
keep me wedged in this doorway
I’ll scan the weather updates
for the day I move on
cause I die
everytime it rains
I’m a papercup, it’s the only way
I get filled up
use me once, that’s more than enough
take me, dear, to that garbage dump
cause I can’t take another minute,
I got nothing left to give this
my facet, it constantly drips, drips, drips
and i take it and take it and take it
cause I’ve got a knack for being helpless,
and I’m a gooood good liar, watch!
“I’m trying to be better!”
still, I can’t escape your sweetheart words,
a bellman watching me get worse
my life’s at a white board,
I write over and over:
“This one’s a failure–it had to be.”
I’ve died
every fucking day
just a papercup, for the love of god,
when can I give up?
where’s my hard earned accolades?
honey, I was born to disintegrate
and I can’t take another minute,
I got nothing left to give this
vignettes of young adulthood that feel as old as time but also incredibly 2010s. it's silly and flippant and absolutely beautiful. Strattford Knockings is my favorite, it gave me psychic damage Sugardeer
people know Heynderickx bc Bug Collector and Oom Sha La La got really big and thats great! What if I told you the entire record is also breathtaking and deserves your time Sugardeer
