about

note: this song is a letter to a younger self, inspired by judith butler's reading of freud's melancholic subject.

lyrics

she asked how you were today, i told her you were fine.
the minute someone brings you up, my instinct is to lie.
this lack of you just sinking in, the mourning isn't lessening.
it just sits and sits as i rot through the floor.

goodnight, sweet prince.
they couldn't have saved you, even if they tried.
your body's gone. your heart lives on, but only as a cavity,
'cause losing you constitutes me now.

i can't accept it's over now, i can't believe you're gone.
and no one seems to notice that everything's all wrong.
the crazy thing is, i am not alone.
you left me by myself, but in a world just as broken to the bone.
