roundboat69 its hard to top burn pygmalion in my book but god DAMN does this get close. feels like the perfect marriage of all the musical exploration liz has done over their past works, speaking of which its rly cool to see an old project be revisited and refreshed like this!! Favorite track: Mercy, Find Me Here.

Tender-Loim The Scary Jokes have always meant a great deal to me. BURN PYGMALION helped me in my personal development and this album is no different. Amazing lyrical work. Favorite track: Mercy, Find Me Here.

jesnetz your music genuinely heals something within me. thank you so much liz //
and idiot us, we throw ourselves over
the spiraling vacuum calling our names.
one good distraction is all that we need…
today we're in ecstasy, tomorrow we'll bleed
don’t waste your worries on me.
nowhere else to go here but up…up up up up up
sometimes i don't see anything —is that the real me? Favorite track: Idiot Us.

Idiot Us 02:56
city covered in gray and a river so black give your body to the shuffle you might get something back and idiot us we throw ourselves over the spiraling vacuum calling our names one good distraction is all that we need today we're in ecstasy, tomorrow we'll bleed and idiot us we throw ourselves over the infinite whirlpool calling our names i'll care for you like i cared for the others not a fingernail will go to waste (if you hit the bottom) so come (you won't be a stranger) come down (you won't be a martyr) come fall to me (you won't leave a trace behind)

Is That Me?? 03:06
aimless and bored guess i'll take a walk i can't help myself from feeling on edge all of those plans guess that those were just talk i can't help myself from glancing over the ledge i hear someone calling me down under the ground through an open manhole a strange voice like three heads talking maybe five how do they know me? now i'm spilling out vague insecurities you listen so sweetly though i can't see your face then it all hits me that i'm all alone and i think i make out the glistening of fangs i feel someone grabbing my face twisting my features into nonsense a strange feeling like three mouths screaming maybe five is that me?? oh no!

he finds himself at that restaurant a broken-down diner he's scaring the customers the waitress comes out smiling politely trying to take his order before he gets thrown out he can't help it of course she knows still she's surely gonna take this shit home he finds himself on the street again the city is cold today and full of mean faces so he walks back to his awful apartment bugs crawling in the sink, mold on the walls he turns on the tv, tries not to think he tries not to think but he knows unlike some vacuous tv show this is not just a bad episode he could use friends but they've had enough nowhere else to go here but up nowhere else to go here but up nowhere else to go here but up up up up up up
