Presence in My Mirror

I chipped my tooth when I thought I heard you call my name.
And now that its dulled, its still sensitive, and now I feel lame.
There's something in my mirror
It's the presence that I fear
There's something in my mirror
I don't like what's in my mirror
Everybody's staring, staring at me
I get so shallow, oh so shallow and I need a reprieve
From the "je suis" in the verbal tense like in that Lariat video
Decades and decades and decades of jungle juice escapades.
I feel it in my mirror
There's something in my mirror
Got that presence in my mirror
I don't like what's in my mirror.

Its the Sarah's or the Ali's
disappearing as soon they go off for the semester.
the years in college, hiding away in dusty dorm rooms.
The used to have it, and now they LOST it
worse than Hurley or Sawyer or Kate.
I wanna have it. I wanna abuse it. I wanna have it. I wanna lose it.
And they will let him get to know you
Commit, you know he's gonna own you,
Flash that naive smile and start to fade away....
What would McConaughy do?
The authority is getting to me. The authority is HOT HOT HOT HOT
On my vapor trail, its an anomaly and this anomaly is HOT HOT HOT HOT.

I wanna go, I wanna go to South Philly.
I wanna know, I wanna know why you did him.
I'm at La Salle, I'm feeling down so come back from NYC and turn it around.

Counseling Pt. 1

Bruised eardrum so I can't sleep, tonal blaring on repeat oh well.
Overrated stoner girls, they got no cash with them curls oh well.
Queen Anne can't get drunk without thinking of her dream mount oh well.
He's on the floor with that Xanax brew, soon enough he'll be down on ludes oh well.
I can see it all, from the gazebo to the hall.
One on one I need help, lie because nothing's felt oh well.
Please give me another drink, crash and burn on the brink oh well.
Waiting for that classic girl who smiles with a neck of pearls oh well.
Accept the fact I'll only hurt, makes me bleed and makes me squirm oh well.
I just want to use and abuse.
I'll blackout anytime I choose.
I'm just an honors kid with a chip on his shoulder.

I could feel it in her tone,
The submissive way of her eyes,
That counseling was over and I must move on.
I'm not angry anymore,
I'm just trying to stay out of intensive care,
Pull the tube from my arms and let me walk away.
So this is what catharsis looks like,
I've reached a state of humility and grace,
Its been three months since I've been home... back to Buffalo.

Lo-fi, scratchy, and somewhat vulgar punk rock straight out of Cincinnati, Ohio. Don't overthink it—they didn't.

Mesh achieve an almost mathematical balance of droll humor and quintessential post-punk sounds.

High Risk Behaviour
by The Chats
The Australian punk rock band's debut album is filled with catchy tracks.

Colossally good New Wave out of Portland, with the nerviness of Kleenex poured into hooky pop songs.
