Emma O - Speedy Ortiz

We went upstate

And made the drive in total silent reverence for cut tongue pile-ons

Narcocorridos of the sprawly west

They learn no one should look upon the evil acts of evil ex

Identical alright

You clench your teeth and try to curb it

Barely cordial to me

It’s tricky to come when called

You left your wart in a bandaid while I was getting sauced at the mall

They shampoo the wood

And don’t indulge their feeble interests, cartographing just for business

Isn’t it the same?

You’re 27, Emma O

You read the masters but you still don’t know about love

No, you don’t know about love

It’s tricky to come when called

When the lights are so dark

And I was never good with a map

I never want to comfort you again

I never want to come for you again

I only want your comfort
