about

A year ago, I made a video about a blue Squier guitar that had been really important to me. At the end of the video, I teased a new chorus I had been working on. A ton of people asked me in the comments to the video to finish the song. In the months that followed that video I tried and tried to come up with a verse that fit with the chorus, but it wasn't until I restored an old bass guitar from the 60s that I actually ended doing finding a good match.

lyrics

Just when you thought it was safe
to erase this tape
you got caught in a lie
stretched on the edge
of an unmade bed in a
city you don’t like

I’ve been asleep at the wheel I feel
you’re real for pointing that out
best find the ghost who’s
obsessed with the coast
better you than someone else

I’m falling awake
I’m falling awake again
I’m falling awake
I’m falling awake

All the people in your dream life
have learned to sing the same strange tune
all the people in your work life
well, somehow they’ve just got no clue

Back with a new set of facts
she packed her bags
with the strangest of jokes
to pour her memes
into the mind of some
unsuspecting host

I’ve known about her for years it’s weird
I didn’t think she had it in her
to be some craven and bizarre
our very own main character

But I’m…asleep on the train
asleep on the bus again
asleep in your car
asleep at my desk

All the people in your dream life
have learned to sing the same strange tune
all the people in your work life
well, somehow they’ve just got no clue
