how can i help you today
i don't know how i can help you today
i'm glad that you trust me or whatever
i've always wanted to be that friend
but i still think you should try some therapy
it's all just a means to an end
bc as much as i'd like to make you feel needed
and as much as this process makes me feel needed
i feel like that purpose has been defeated
cuz it turns out i'm terrified of responsibility
i want so badly for you to feel like you've always been adored
but it's hard when we would rather be happy and ignored
i'm not prepared to take away
all of your sadness and all the shame
but you know i could say the same when you say
"i just can't do this alone"
i love you
(i wish you'd never fucking said that to me)

i went for a walk, i was feeling old
the sky shone bright but mostly it was cold
i've got a new coat, it scratches my neck
i think i spent my last dollar but i'm afraid to check
i slept for ten hours and then two more
my bedroom doesn't have a fucking door
even the heat is blowing cold
i took a walk when i was feeling old
oh, going home
oh, you're going home
not sure what you're looking for but
you'll know it when you see it
i tried for a while but it's not much fun
convincing yrself you dont need anyone
since talk is cheap but thinking is free
i tell myself to fuck off, respectfully
things are exactly what they seem
did that really happen or was it in a dream?
"at least you'll know you made a mistake"
how far does it go? how long does it take?
how far's it go? how long do i have to wait?
because going home is such a ride
you wonder how you ever made it out alive
nobody will ever love me as much as i do
i set my own standard, and it's the same for you
that might sound smart, as far as it goes
but i've forgotten more things than i will ever know
things are only strange when you compare them to the past
but none of those things were ever meant to last

jane i never see you
what are you doing tonight
always wanna say something to you
but it never comes out right
i swear it's not on purpose
everyone else is too loud
you're never the one i pick out in a crowd
oh, come over tonight
janey how's your girlfriend
the one who haunts my dreams
and the other one who thinks she does
but she's too sweet, she doesnt see
i hope you three are happy
you've got so many new responsibilities
but if you ever get tired of those, there's always me
i can talk about the boring shit like movies and tv
hey jane
i don't wanna forget your name
but you'll go on without me all the same
hey jane
i don't wanna forget your name
but you'll be fine without me all the same
janey i respect you
you've got so much on your plate
but you never forgot where you came from
i think that's great
i wanna hang out with you
i wanna talk about our favorite mysteries
i wanna sit on your bed, just you and me
you're my favorite human
and we both know that that's not true
but you like hearing me say it
and i love saying it to you
janey you're the sexiest person i know
hope you dont take that the wrong way
but we all agree and we'd hoped it could be like
an empowering thing for you
hey jane
i'll never forget your name
i hope you won't forget mine either cuz you see
you're very special to me

i've been screening all my calls
so i can ignore all of my calls
don't want to hear about your ways
don't want to hear from you at all
i would rather fall
i'd like you so much more
if i didn't have to see you every day
you are the ancient one it's true
i don't know how to talk to you
i'd like to bring it up casually
but i'm too weak to see it through
i have opinions too
i'd like you so much more
if i didn't have to see you every day
sent from heaven up above
we fit like fingers in a glove
but when push has come to shove
you make me hate the things i love
now i don't know what to say
i don't think things will be ok
we could stay friends if we separate
but i have to see you every day
now i hate everything you say
i have to see you every day

universal experience

everyone knows what it's like to be lonely
everyone knows what it's like to be alone
everyone knows what it's like to feel unworthy
and to feel like a stranger in your own home
so you hide yourself away
and say you don't need anyone else
but when you go back outside
you start to feel more like yourself
everyone knows what it's like to hate their body
everyone knows what it's like to feel out of place in the world
everyone knows what it's like to dissociate in the shower
as you visualize your entire life coming unfurled
so you cover yourself up
and dodge your reflection in the mirror
and you wonder if you'll ever be happy
as you feel your expiration date draw nearer
everyone knows what it's like to be confronted in an Auto Zone parking lot
and everyone knows what it's like to let a stranger in your car
everyone knows what it's like to be too trusting in every situation
and only realize in hindsight that you've taken things too far
and he tells you you look beautiful
and that's when you start to feel some hesitation
and you make him get out of your car
but only once you've reached his destination
these feelings are so commonplace i barely feel the need to speak them

avoid my reflection
afraid of my shadow moving
i haven't eaten in so long
hit the showtime with adrenaline
i've been in the corner huddling
psyching up and psyching out
but i don't want them to know my name
never unpacking
i may not be here tomorrow
boxes keep stacking
no guarantee, no signs of life
but i don't want them to know my name
if you don't see me
then what's the point
but if they see me
it's just signal to noise
but i don't want them to know my name
i just want you to say my name
but i don't want them to know my name

susie, oh susie
where did i go wrong
i met you, and i loved you
and then i wrote this song
your perfect smile always cheers me when i'm down
i get this funny feeling whenever you're around
you're the coolest person in this whole damn town
but susie, i know you don't think you're "good"
it's hard to be so misunderstood
but you've got me now
and we can burn those fences down
i'll show you how
susie, susie
i wanna be your girl
i know i barely know you
but we could give it a whirl
am i attracted to the things that i can never have?
or just lonely? god, i never thought it'd get so bad
why does thinking of you make me feel so sad?
i really think you're gonna help me out of a slump
and stop me from dropping myself off at the dump
yeah things are looking up
if i can find a way to interrupt
but the worst part about all this
(she doesnt exist)

Flowerpot Records Ohio
A record label based out of Berea, Ohio, putting out CDs and tapes from artists around the country.
Flowerpot Records recommends:
I Was Drunk At This Show
by Graves
from the same show as the Warning Shot! recordings, and so far as i can tell this was the only time they performed live.
go to album
Eternally a favorite album. A band that knocks it out of the park every time. Wild songwriting that comes across as a combination of In Rainbows-era Radiohead and Freak Out! era Zappa.

Nothing's Ever Silent (2016 Remaster)
by Reflections Of Stars
acoustic indie instrumental post-rock. warm sounds and cold sounds. lots of different instruments, only two people. a good winter record.
go to albumIf you like home is where my stuff is: the double ep, you may also like:
Angels Of Darkness, Demons Of Light I
by Earth
supported by 4 fans who also own “home is where my stuff is: the double ep”
Un retour aux sources qui n'en est pas un : par rapport à son prédécesseur qui comptait pas moins de dix instruments différents, Angels Of Darkness, Demons Of Light I n'en contient que quatre, mais il n'est pas question de revenir vers le drone d'il y a quinze ans en arrière. Quand je parle de retour aux sources, c'est parce que Earth se place entre la culture américaine et africaine et que son drone est teinté de blues. Les notes ondulent et claquent, Earth improvise : c'est charnel et spatial.

Music For 18 Magicians
by Karass
Tacoma's Karass whittled these bleak dream-pop gems from free-form jams, and the rhythms that rattle through them have a live energy.
go to album
Stop apologizing
by Frankie valet
The first full-length release from this St. Louis group is full of simple, sweet dream pop songs with a touch of Paisley Underground fuzz.
