I’M AFRAID I LOVE SOMEONE,
WHO’S IN LOVE WITH SOMEONE ELSE.
FOR YEARS I’VE KEPT IT TO MYSELF,
PRETENDING WE ARE PICTURE PERFECT.
BUT I BARELY GOT MY SHIT TOGETHER,
CRACKING UNDER LITTLE PRESSURE.
I’M AFRAID I’M NOT THE ONE,
THE ONE YOU WANT IS SOMEONE ELSE.
HOPE IS A DANGEROUS, DANGEROUS LITTLE THING.
TO KEEP FINDING OUT THE HARD WAY,
WHAT TOMORROW NEVER BRINGS.
I PASSED A RESTAURANT BURNED TO THE GROUND,
AND A DOLLAR STORE WITH A BURNED OUT “A”.
I LAUGHED THINKING THAT I RELATE,
I’M THE JUNK YOU BUY THEN THROW AWAY.
HIDE THE BLOODSHOT, CLOSE MY EYES,
SO THE COVER WON’T BE COMPROMISED.
I’M AFRAID I’M NOT THE ONE,
THE ONE YOU WANT IS SOMEONE ELSE.
SOMETIMES I WANNA BLOW UP MY LIFE,
AND BECOME SOMEONE ELSE.

The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world.
But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur

viscerally affected by covid, this album has a less optimistic but more accepting message than the previous. it reaches the heart of my experience (and others'?) in a cathartic and depressing acknowledgement. it's nice to know you feel the same niq

A very unique addition to the PUP discography that brings a multitude of new sounds compared to previous works, not bad by any means, just a little different.
Go see them live, chaotic. Shmoob
