about

Recorded/mixed by Ryan "Rings" Ellery in his house.

lyrics

Wouldn't it be lovely
To not hate yourself?
Wouldn't if be nice
To be someone else?
You say I'm just a game to you,
But not a sport.
A sport implies some competition,
This is a war of attrition.
I'd rather be struggling to survive
Than feeling like I'll never feel alive.
I'm struggling to survive,
But I love struggling, struggling.
Struggling, struggling.

I asked my counselor just what I should do
To fix the hole in my heart left by you.
He said what I needed to hear
was exactly what I'd feared
He said "suicide's the only option,"
Suicide's my only option.

I live in an empty town
Of people running to wedding gowns,
People smiling at my frown
They're glad I'm not okay
But soon I'll be Portland bound
I'm checking a Dublin lost and found each day
In search of the reasons that I wanted you to stay.

Wrote a short song with no lyrics, and couldn't figure out how to finish it.

Wrote a second short song with some lyrics about struggling, and couldn't figure out how to finish it.

Wrote a really fast short riff, and couldn't figure out how to finish it.

Wrote a really short joke song about being told to kill myself, and couldn't figure out how to finish it.

A few months ago, I listened to an interview where Barry Johnson said that if you can't finish a song, try mixing it with other songs.

Put them all back-to-back, add Clayton's dope lead riffs, and you get Couple's Counseling.
