about

At some point last spring, after maybe of month of not working, feeling uninspired in all hobbies and duties as I ran the same gamut of emotions that the rest of the empathetic world was experiencing, I wrote this song as an ode to waking up, doom scrolling, refreshing, doom scrolling some more, refreshing, staring at the ceiling, reading how yesterday’s worst news is today’s best case scenario, and trying to find any motivation to get out of bed while the sun peeks through the blinds.

If you can’t get out your head or out your bed, but you also ain’t ready to give up, this one’s an ode to you.

Love
Lukulele Slim

lyrics

Sun peaking through the blinds like a cat thief
Musta not got the memo bout this last week
Yesterday’s worst is today’s best case
I’m 6 feet of existential dread and dead weight

Sun peaking through the blinds like the Five-Oh
I can sense it on me even with my eyes closed
Spend the next couple hours on my phone
I traded way all my faith and my high hopes

Can’t pull myself out of bed
Can’t pull myself out my head
Can’t pull myself off the ledge
But I can’t let myself wish this all would end

Sun peaking through the blinds like a close pal
Telling me to get up while the world goes down
Sending streaks of light all across my grim face
Telling me to quit my whining, get my shit straight

Can’t pull myself out of bed
Can’t pull myself out my head
Can’t pull myself off the ledge
But I can’t let myself wish this all would end
