you're living with another guy
little house down by the sea
i guess he's a doctor now
while i sit here in hollywood
sleeping through all my dreams
blowing cash on everything
you can't buy what i need
hopeless and unemployed, dreaming of integrity
is that what you think of me?
while you're dying in hollywood
think of a better scene
when i gave you everything you left nothing for me
you had my heart but i gave it away
love doesn't come free, it's more like a slave
you had my soul but i'd sell it today
love doesn't come free, it's more like a slave
but i'll catch another plane
to the south american dream
i'm going to peru and i'm never coming back for you

Juxtaposing poetic balladry with roaring feedback and warped piano lines, the Vermonter's music is as stunning as it is unsettling. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 21, 2024
