Jane’s got a problem with me
She’s got a problem with the way that I drink
She says “if you keep it up then I’ll leave”
So I pretend I’m taking it easy
Jane’s got it out for my friend
I can tell when I’m listening
To their phone conversations
I just don’t want it to end
So here I am
Sad and lonely and so far away from home
Just a drunk, I’m a bad guy
I was born to be alone
And that’s all I’ll ever know
Back when I was 23
I figured Jane was just that easy
But now she hasn’t called in weeks
I guess she’s finally gotten over me
Not a day goes by I don’t think
The Jane was the one for me
And when I’m 45 I’ll dream
Of Jane coming back to me
And then I’ll die
Sad and lonely and so far away from home
Just a drunk, I’m a bad guy
I was born to be alone
And that’s all you’ll ever know
Yeah, that’s all you’ll ever know

Takes me back to my high school classroom during the days of binging Inio Asano's old manga scanlations before anything was licensed. At that time, I was discovering many kinds of Asian shoegaze, but I've never heard anything like this. Makes me think of Pasteboard, Supecar, and Midnight Pingpong a bit, and it's funny bc the first two I listen have blue album covers too. Lu
