about

performativity, loneliness, crashing cars

lyrics

hello, it’s me again, just came to say
i crashed the car again last morning
the chain link fence has never been so
bent, it’s bowing, screaming out in warning
i scribbled sigils on my arm all
lazy afternoon spent in detention
i laugh about my fantasies
but still there’s things i wish you wouldn’t mention

in front of the projector, and my
silhouette is telling me i’m broken
i’ve heard it all before, but still there’s
value in the things all left unspoken

i’m running on, running on, running on fumes
can you tell i’m close to breaking down
i’m running on, running on, running on fumes
can you tell i’m bursting to leave this town
i’m running on, running on, running on
running on, running on, running on fumes
running on fumes

hello, it’s me again, just came to tell you
that our living room is flooded
i didn’t know for hours, i was outside
on the hill all struck star-studded
i spent the evening with a girl; we
let off steam and passed around the blame
she wants to be an actress when
she’s older, and i can’t quite place her name

in front of the projector, and my
silhouette is telling me i’m hopeless
i’ve heard it all before, i mean
i’ve lived this long and how could i not notice

i’m running on, running on, running on fumes
can you tell i’m close to breaking down
i’m running on, running on, running on fumes
can you tell i’m bursting to leave this town
i’m running on, running on, running on
running on, running on, running on fumes
running on fumes

hello, it’s me again, just leaving voicemails
in the inbox of a ghost
i got your number from the phone book
you’re the best friend i have ever had
these messages are piling up
you’re just like me: somebody no one wants
i’m sorry no one listens, but i’m here
if you would like someone to haunt

i’m running on, running on, running on fumes
can you tell i’m close to breaking down
i’m running on, running on, running on fumes
can you tell i’m bursting to leave this town
i’m running on, running on, running on
running on, running on, running on fumes
running on fumes
i’m running on, running on, running on
running on, running on, running on fumes
running on fumes
