two weeks in hawaii

from end of an era extended play by L. Mounts

lyrics

well i never took a ride on the backs of angels
and the only thing i’m left with now is vaccinations
to give me the cure for diseases so pure
to make my heart go back to its palpitations
and i know i never really said that i was sorry
and it’s too late now and i’m honestly worried
that you’ll just walk away from everything that i’d say
but i recognize your apathy is so deserving
and i know we’re both sad and trying to recover
from hyperactively instantly losing each other
so i lie in my bed and i lie in my head
telling myself that i’m eventually gonna get better
so i play all my cassette tapes under half-lit room lights
thinking everything i did after i left was just not right
a terrible move i couldn’t improve
those two weeks in hawaii were a terrible fortnight

it was way too warm and the trees were too shady
and the whole time i was there i missed you like crazy
and i had to man up, and i had to be tough
but i fucked it all up and you have reason to hate me
and no amount of listening to codeine records
could make me feel righteous enough to be better
and handling this, i was so selfish
but my depression hasn’t a damn thing to do with the weather
and i know you’re pissed off and i haven’t addressed it
properly enough to make you forget it
so give me the blame and curse my whole name
and tell your friends i was the worst man that you’ve been to bed with
and looking back on everything in distorted hindsight
the error of my ways have been completely realized
and you know that i just can’t say sorry enough
those two weeks in hawaii were a terrible fortnight
