lyrics

I’m hanging from the gallows; would it kill you now to cut me some slack?
With these six shots of tequila, I’m about to launch a counterattack
So you’ve used up my emotions, now my battery’s at one percent
I’ll burn this whole place to the ground since you know this month I ain’t making the rent

Take anything you want, there’s nothing but me
And I never was enough, or so it would seem
Your last words so unkind, still hammering my mind
You’re the worst song on the soundtrack of my life (yeah)

Therapy and Prozac are just Band-Aids for this broken heart
I’m gonna leave this town, just take a paper map and throw a dart
I keep talking to my shadow, and she thinks there’s something wrong with my head I distract myself from you by reading books on existential dread

Take anything you want, there’s nothing but me
And I never was enough, or so it would seem
Your last words so unkind, still hammering my mind You’re the worst song on the soundtrack of my life (yeah)

Keep one eye open and one eye closed
All your sleeptalking secrets will now be exposed
You might slit your throat if you don’t bite your tongue If you don’t get up, shut up, tell me I’m the one

Take anything you want, there’s nothing but me
And I never was enough, or so it would seem
Your last words so unkind, still hammering my mind You’re the worst song on the soundtrack of my life (yeah)

Joan of Arkansas Phoenix, Arizona

Five piece sludge pop band from Phoenix, Arizona formed through Tinder and Craigslist. Joan of Arkansas is weird, loud, distorted, and lyrically driven. Bright pop dual vocals peeking through distorted sludgy guitar and bass, then topped off with manic drumming. Is it pop? Is it punk? Is it noise? That's for you to decide! ... more
