lyrics

Clean the counters then I'll go outside, just for a while.
Walking's easy, mostly I fake a smile and kill the time.
So if you told me that I'd be lonely most every evening,
then you'd be right.
Sweep the kitchen then I'll take a ride, just for a mile.
Brooklyn's sleeping. I'll find a bottle of wine that tastes alright.
So tell me softly and tell me slowly, that you don't want me.
And I'll be fine.
I used to need the pretty things that lend themselves to pretty dreams.
But now I find, now I find.
The frills and all the filigree, the weight of my necessities
so horrifying.
So if you told me that I'd be lonely most every evening
then you'd be right.
And tell me softly, and tell me slowly that you don't want me
and I'll be fine.

Hayes Peebles Nashville, Tennessee

“Cerebral lyrics à la Conor Oberst, with no-frills, twangy arrangements that call to mind troubadours like Steve Earle and Townes Van Zandt."
