I've been cleaning out the closets
cause it’s about that time of year
i can’t be holding onto all this
So i’ll be doing what i can around here.
If you could take me back a decade,
Maybe I would’ve worked things out,
But I can't promise
I wouldn't have the mess that I'm in now.
God dammit.
skeletons all set out for show,
found em not too long ago,
i’d tell you if you know a bone
to pick that won’t
afflict me none.
but does it matter,
seeing patterns in the scatter of the carpet clutter?
boxes of maybes fairly lately all built up.
i'm cleaning out the closets
cause it’s about that time of year
i can’t be holding onto all this
So i’ll be doing what i can around here.
If you could take me back a decade,
Maybe I would’ve worked things out,
But I can't promise
I wouldn't have the mess that I'm in now.
God dammit.
All of this i never touch.
(except to move all the mess around)
I hold on to way too much.
(and i never really sort this out)
I know, eclectic nonsense content's hard to read.
That's my fault,
that me you think of doesn't think like me.
i'm cleaning out the closets
cause it’s about that time of year
i can’t be holding onto all this
So i’ll be doing what i can around here.
If you could take me back a decade,
Maybe I would’ve worked things out,
Butt right now i can't promise much.
That’s why i been cleaning out the closets
cause it’s about that time of year
i can’t be holding onto all this
So i’ll be doing what i can around here.
If you could take me back a decade,
Maybe I would’ve worked things out,
But I can't promise
I wouldn't have the mess that I'm in now.

Nearly a decade late to the Taz party, but I’m so glad to be aware of it now! I don’t know what elixir Griffin put into the album but I would like to drink a gallon of it. katiegreene137
Bouncy, jangly power pop with a slash of acidic shadow, as the very best twee always has. From Boston, they met at band camp (not Bandcamp). Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 2, 2019
