about

This whole track was built around the headlamps line from the Joy Again song Sungazing.

lyrics

am i are you still me still you
our minds wander farther and farther

my search for earthlings was disappointing
no one noticed me screaming



don't do drugs don't have unprotected sex don't smoke cigarettes don't hang out with those kids

don't take your parents for granted if you take on the world by yourself don't expect it to be easy



and i'm not coming back for
no i'm not coming back for you

but i'm not coming back for
i'm still not coming back for you



we're formless shapes running in place
when observed in our purest state

and in these confines we try to combine
pleasure, comfort, and meaningful lovers


but i'm not coming back for
i'm still not coming back for you

no i'm not coming back for
i'm never not coming back for you
(we're too scared to do shit)

don't do drugs don't have unprotected sex don't smoke cigarettes don't hang out with those kids

don't take your parents for granted if you take on the world by yourself don't expect it to be easy


and please just don't let them down just down let me down
please just don't let them down just down let me down


oh god

i’m scared and i know that you’re scared even if you don’t let on as much as i do

i used to distance to calculate how far we had grown, but obviously it didn’t yield the results i was looking for

as long as you're ok, i’m ok, and most of my fear and worries comes from that thought some someone’s out there taking advantage of you, which if you think about it is kind of ironic.

send your complaints, cease and desist,
car seat headrest, matador records.
