i was feeling trenchant when you arrived in the middle of my show i felt my life becoming a story it just lasted a second the moment just before i knew you would go i saw the scene becoming reality couldn't resist you but i couldn't convince you to step away from her lght come over to my side couldn't believe you but ddn't wanna leave you oh baby i'm so tired now don't know what this song's about baby i'm so hard your tenderness misses me baby i'm so smart and nobody kisses me i was feeling nothing oh and then there you were just sitting with my friends your body just like any other i could feel a humming like there was something that would never be said you put your arm around me like a brother couldn't get out of it the sentimental sound of it just wanted to linger on it couldn't put my finger on it didn't wanna wise up i knew it wasn't my love i knew it wasn't my love baby i'm so late your presence benumbs me baby i'm so great and nobody wants me

i hover above the bed i tell a story just to see if it will end i go out fretfully composed looking for a feeling i go out dangerously alone my sense of self starts peeling i linger by the door i tell a story just to give my life a form i call you, my body unseen i ask implicityly for you to give me something something to believe do you wonder how to pray when you're in your bed? do you wonder how to say what can't be said? i stagger into view i write a story because i don't know how to love you i get up but there's no light life is somewhere else i get up and i try to find something to prove myself do you wonder how you lived all of those days? do you feel like you're always waiting for the rain? when your bed is empty do you wonder where your life went? when the story is ending do you wonder what it meant? do you wonder how to pray when you're in your bed? do you wonder how to say what can't be said? would my heart beat faster if i said it the right way? did it matter what we did (oh what did we do) with all those days?

about

these two songs were written and recorded in march of 2020, right at the beguiling beginning of life in a pandemic. both songs were written and performed by matthew meriwether, exclusively in their bedroom, recorded with haste on a very old version of garage band with their very old macbook's built in mic. thanks for listening. xoxo.
