lyrics
The car is running and your bags are packed
I guess that says it all
Your head is hanging and you look real sad
Maybe you should've called
You say you think you need a brand new start
You're really sorry that you broke my heart
Well I'm not really falling apart, but
You can feel bad if it makes you feel better
Picture me crying, reading all your love letters
Walking around in your old sweaters
You can feel bad if it makes you feel better
Maybe I'll go out tonight, yeah I'll paint the town
Maybe I'll run into you while I'm running around
There's a good chance I will be alone
An even better one that you won't
And when it's time for me to go home, babe
You can feel bad if it makes you feel better
Picture me crying, reading all your love letters
Walking around in your old sweaters
You can feel bad if it makes you feel something
Take another look at the tears I cry
They don't fall on your shoulders, they fall on mine
But I've seen this coming for a long time
And I'll be fine
But, babe
You can feel bad if it makes you feel better
Picture me crying reading all your love letters
Walking around in your old sweaters
You can feel bad if it makes you feel something

Can't listen w/o hearing Young Marble Giants, but a more nervous, taut take. All the tracks are great, but can't stop humming the title to myself. Josh Steichmann

Like "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" and Greg Laswell, this song by Merle Haggard was written to wait almost 50 years for Bridgers to tell us what it really means. Hell of a perfect, tragic arrangement. Jamming Device
Australian multi-instrumentalist Nick Griffith tempers luxuriant yacht-pop arrangements with lo-fi touches across the sunny "7am." Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 1, 2020
Providence, Rhode Island artist El Valerie delivers nine tracks of pure, blissful bedroom pop with an electronic twist. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 14, 2022

This is the type of album where your favorite track changes every other day because it's just that good and if anyone told me any song was their favorite, every option feels like a right answer. DudeHowEvenTho
