We've both been in much worse trouble before, it's easy
You ought to scrunch up your trapezius more, honey
Tell me what you're like, and I'll patiently ignore your lie
You're likely to find me patrolling and holding tight
Don't know if it consoles you, but the man you knew
Was only the me I chose to be near you
I'm ready to go in a moment and you should be too
I dragged my ass out here for one reason
And it wasn't because I wanted to consort with your annoying boyfriend
The end of the road was miles ago - why is it we proceeded forth?
Because you are so lonely and I am so easily bored?
Stay naked & get in front of me
It'll be okay
Yea I may be trudging along lovelessly
But you're the one fucking a tumbleweed
Relationship shit is for suckers and
You're lucky you're even seeing me
We can wait till the ruckus has cleared
Then tuck into beers and leave, displaced
And that way, nobody loses face
No one's in a position to complain
If you would just please refrain from
Needing anything
I have no interest in your
Feelings on what I said wrong
& I wrote a song for you
Called "Honesty is a Prison"
Riding the line between indie pop and psychedelic folk, the songs on the latest from The Madeleines are as gorgeous as they are mysterious. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 22, 2022
