lyrics

We never see the fun side of you
I thought as though I was talking too loudly
So I said, “Excuse me.”
And went to the restroom
I just stood and ran the sink
Listening to the pink noise of white running water

This is not an emergency
This is not so bad
This is easy

One year later no breath trails off
Without a tally mark
Or check in the right box
I’ll use this as a caveat
In times when I need to be reminded
This is what it’s like to be alive
To feel alive
Every day I’ve lived has gone away
Today’s like a dream that isn’t over
Or a visiting ship
I guess I should still plan for my old age
I should pick up a second language
Just incase I really need to go away
Some day

I could just say I’m out on vacation
I am on holiday
My outgoing message will say
I’m out on stay
I could just give living another name
I could just give it another name
Practice vagrancy
Cause last year I would’ve called it an emergency

And after reading her poetry
And “Finding Ground” in Constellations I felt not weakened by the world

And the view of my life from an aeroplane I thought, I thought

about

Randy's Got a Playdough Face image

Randy's Got a Playdough Face Queens, New York

Having almost always recorded in a full band setting, Randy has allowed every instrument to mature with each release using influences that lend to the indie rock sweethearts like Death Cab for Cutie, Wilco, Modest Mouse, Slint, Sunny Day Real Estate, R.E.M.

Randy has a heavy focus on the “album” format, long chord progressions, and suspending song structures.

Thanks for being here. ... more
