Liner Notes

Lyrics

Last night, I died again Woke up in the morning in the same old skin I try to shed it, and shed it (It) just grows back thicker than thin

Last night, I tried again Tell you our old stories, sing the same old spins But you’ve been gone for years, now I'm just pouring tonic in an old gin

Last night, I cried again (But it's) a dry grief now just one tear tumbleweeds in Then there's nothing left Just cement top cement one more layering

(Cuz) It's thickening, this thickering, A slow black it pours back Can't push forever baby Some days it wins

The thickering The thickering Some days I win Fewer now Someday it'll settle in

The thickering

(Someday it wins)

"Last night, I died again" might just be one of the most compelling opening lines to a song I've heard in a long time.

Great heart in this song. I'm glad you keep on trudging through the rough parts despite it sometimes winning. You got this!
