Katie Huff A perfect example of post punk jangle that blends into a chaotic conclusion. Favorite track: Swimming Pool.

Script 03:14
Are they discussing what they had for lunch? or are they caught in the heat of an argument? Are the words spoken with a lifted brow? or with a hand placed firmly over their hearts? I want a script of the final conversation Is this path meaningful? Well it's easy to say that it's not And is this road meaningful? Well it's easy to say no, it's not I want a script of the final conversation Car is towed so go and bus to get it hey, don't sweat it all you've got's a job to lose It's got you wishin' for a system that'd bestow you all the basics ububububububu bububu I want a script of the final conversation I'd prefer a 'script to a life eviction Script final conversation

Learned 02:53
I give to you something crazy but you return it sane And if you want I can forget a lot of things on a whim on a whim I, I never try anything until you taught me I, I never learn anything until you show me how it should be It's up to me to make it right to make it bright I saw that you you can remove remove the strange from the sight on a whim I, I never try anything until you taught me I, I never learn anything until you show me

Torture 04:14
Way too much time to kill Your hair gel doesn't jell with time Coke-head landscaper Pill-popping waiter Chinese water torture that's what it feels like Hanging on for not so dear life When you're past your prime Weather report says "no wind" Ashes in the vase stay in one place Pick up pick up the kids from your ex-wife's tough guy boyfriend's You've been drawn and quartered that's what it feels like Hanging on for not so dear life When you're past your prime and you live like you died Legs like ice that never melts Aren't you tired of waiting for something to change in yourself? Hello, so is everybody else It's Chinese water torture that's what it feels like Hanging on for not so dear life When you're past your prime and you live like you died

Asparagus 04:26
Echo, echo Now I cross the floor I close the door and I head down to the store Leaving with only the necessary supplies and when I go to sleep I don't close my eyes Just look up at the black black ceiling Yeah I wanna be the furniture Good good style Sitting in the livingroom for a while I'm chasing the day and by the night it's gotten away from me and I wonder how you are You've got the blood of a star and I've got the blood of somebody that's drunk Wanna be the light fixture Good good light Hanging in your livingroom is alright, yeah

I think tonight I'll leave the zone My little monastary home It is what it is till it's everything else as well I'm decorated like a cake but half as sweet and twice as baked cut me in eighths, refrigerate the rest oh I know I'm fucked but I'm on your side The other side of the mirror If I drop the prayer I'll disappear Grayson, Chris and Nash attest to the adbundance of the young bro confidence impecabble watch, and job secured Suddenly I'm filled with motivation Sadly suddenly is far too late to intuit success oh I know we're fucked but I'm on your side The other side of the mirror If I drop the prayer I'll disappear I'll disappear I'll disappear

Drag 01:55
this kind of optimism is going to drag you through every valley and take everything you have you had enough to make the day easy to keep your mind a no man's land you pay a price for beauty too bad it's all kept locked inside of your head i want to help you but i don't think that i can because i'm weak too
