about

Written just as this year kicked off.

lyrics

Sniffing pixie sticks
By the corner store
With your husband’s kids
And I guess they’re yours

Guess you’re back in town
And it seems so am I
Why’d you bring him here
Did someone we know die

Supreme in my ignorance
Suppressing every stale instance
Where pieces of your matter
Wavelike consume me in patterns
And our love just becomes data
And I sail off bon regatta
Au revior, abientot
It’s so sad to see you go

There’s a Greyhound bus
Back about three years
Where I made no fuss
As you waved in tears

And I crawled back to
The place a block away
From the place where she
Oh no, I cannot say

Supreme in my ignorance
Suppressing every stale instance
Where pieces of your matter
Wavelike consume me in patterns
And our love just becomes data
And I sail off bon regatta
Au revior, abientot
It’s so sad to see you go

Who am I to you
What do I represent
Am I coming through
Am I dissonant

I have been split apart
Under an expert’s eye
And even pulled apart
You’re all intertwined

Supreme in my ignorance
Suppressing every stale instance
Where pieces of your matter
Wavelike consume me in patterns
And our love just becomes data
And I sail off bon regatta
Au revior, abientot
It’s so sad to see you go

It's so sad to see you go
It's so sad to see you go
