FAWM: "World Record Speedrun for Entering Crisis Mode"

World Record Speedrun for Entering Crisis Mode

NSFW

Liner Notes

Synthetic cannabinoids suck, especially when you take 25x more than you thought you did as a result of suspiciously vague packaging and have to be hospitalized for a bit. Enjoy responsibly, etc. Lotta syllables in this one + a weird dissonant harmony line in the 2nd verse that was an accident but I like it enough for demo purposes.

(I'm okay now, had to rest for a few days which is why I was inactive. Lesson learnt.)

Lyrics

somebody cut the shit i'm tired of wading ankle deep in it self-hating prodigy with purple lips from too much thc

terminating on a couch on the porch you told me "put a shirt on" while my head was being torched and now i'm always teetering from something breaking off of me i have to die to stay alive, i'm freaking out from each extreme

this whole fucking town is a postcard view for rich white people with nothing else to do keeping cheap housing and transit from the scene making fat stacks off of counting beans

she said this street was new to her though where it once lead became a blur strawberries grew over land so sweet a burial ground for what could never be

"to you, they're children - to me, they're dollar signs"

In my view you made some lemonade from this lemon of an experience. The energetic rhythm, surreal images, social critique and spot-on dissonant backing vocals are a joy to behold.

Ugh yeah that sounds like a baaaaad trip but wow you sure made a great song out of it. I've never tried the synthetic stuff but I have had panic attacks and my brain was going this fast but was not nearly this eloquent. Actually, listening to something like this might have helped sync me back up with reality. Really great lyrics the whole way through. The whole arrangement is excellent. Glad you're feeling better!
