"After recording “Home” with Erik we began working on an album so I interjected this idea into the same demoing sessions as “Happy” and “Stay”. A DIY touring and recording legend, Erik Romero not only plays in the Front Bottoms but also writes in his OWN project Still Hungry. In Erik’s “office” in his house, we were able to flush at the arrangement of the songs and demo guitars, bass, vocals, and programmed drum part." - Guy
"When growing this song with the drums we concluded that this should build to something big. With that idea in mind, Erik searched for a sloppy guitar down to layer the chords with. As he was playing with this I was “noodling” on the guitar and we both looked at each other and had the same thought. This needed to be tracked". - Guy
lyrics
EXPLICIT WARNING
Diet:
I have been eating nothing but shit all week.
Telling myself “it’s good to compete”
But I can’t stop doing terrible things to my health
My mental state is physically hell.
But I don’t even think that it’s worth it to be starving and adjustable
Like I don’t even need to be me anymore
Take me away from your house
I’ve been tempting myself to stay until dark
Do I cut comfort out of my life, when you’re gone
But I don’t buy any of that
When I’ve spent my life inside the track
But believing it now becomes fact
When You’re gone
