about

I wrote this over the summer while teaching a course in Digital Music Production to a bunch of exchange students from China. They're featured on guest vocals.

Every instrument on this song is played on an Ableton Push through Logic, which as you probably can guess, are not made to be compatible with each other. So this was a fun one to make.

lyrics

In my apartment
Reliving mistakes that I could've done
Done so much different
I never meant to hurt anyone

So let's get started
Make all the phone calls and set up a time
The hardest part is
Remembering we're all gonna die

The world is ending
I'm pretending
Everything's just fine

(Chorus)
I'll throw a party
You're all invited but I don't care
I know my heart is
Probably broken beyond repair
That doesn't matter
Just bring your friends and bring your booze
Let's all get fatter
We've all got nothing left to lose

Now two weeks later
The concrete date has finally arrived
As instigator
Clean up the place at quarter to five

But no one's coming
They all forgot or they don't want to drive
And I don't blame them
It's just a shit time to be alive

The world is ending
I'm pretending
Everything's just fine

Chorus

Oh, I know
This probably is all for show
Let's go, let's go
Until the morning comes and we explode

Chorus

I wrote Dragon Faceplant Hole in high school, and am just now re-releasing them with the hope that it'll inspire me to make more of this nonsense.
