Alright. A few things. 1) My computer is acting like a jerk today. 2) In the spirit of complete transparency, I wrote this song about a week before FAWM. But in my defense, I had only just heard about FAWM and I got excited and this was very much my first FAWM idea. This is a brand new recording though, just done today. I think that qualifies as not breaking the rules, right?

This is as close as I can ever get to a protest song. Next time I'll get back to writing something more upbeat. Sorry.

they say it's nine degrees outside they say i won't commit they say it's going to keep it up i think this might be it

we're gone everything we've ever loved is gone

i can't believe i'm getting old i can't believe it's true i can't believe these sheets will fold but then, they always do

it's gone everything we've ever loved is gone

maybe it's winter i cannot see probably winter listen to me finally winter or at least it could be nuclear winter i guess i'm free

any time they ask you, son "what have you become?" everytime, you answer them "i don't know", and run

i'm gone i am absolutely sure i'm gone i'm gone mostly i am sure that i am gone

as i lay here dying now a story on a shelf i can only think about how i amaze myself
