probably been a lot of times where ive felt much worse
than i feel right now
but right now
all i can do is feel like this
and i feel like shit
when i wake up alone and afraid
of the things in my day
and what i've gotta do about them
i don't wanna deal with that
but i'm okay
i'm okay
i'm okay
i'm okay
probably gonna fuck this up but i'll give it a shot
i've got nothing better to do
dive head first in with your fingers crossed
you've gotta get lot to find the truth
of who you are and who you wanna be
who you used to be and the in between
when you find that out
please tell me how
'cos right now
i don't wanna be the lump sum of my parents heads, shoulders, knees
right now
i don't wanna be the lump sum of trees and of birds and bees
right now
i don't wanna be the lump sum
right now
i don't wanna be anything
but i am the things inside of me
not my shitty job or my lack of degree
and if someone has a problem with me
it's a reflection on them and not back on me
all i can do is breathe in deep and try hard to be the best version of me
right now
i don't have to be the lump sum of my parents heads, shoulders, knees
right now
i don't have to be the lump sum of trees and of birds and bees
right now
i don't have to be the lump sum
right now
i don't have to be anything

I bought the physical copy of this demo, #2/50, the night before All Tomorrow's Shoeys. I bought it again almost two years later when Jen was in a bind. In between those purchases I bought it on vinyl from Craigos. What I'm trying to say is that I've bought this fucking thing three times now and I'd probably buy it again, so you know it's good, aye!

The second EP from Northern Irish singer-songwriter Bea Stewart runs from gentle folk to pillowy pop ballads, all perfectly executed. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 15, 2024
If the enormous guitars don't speak loud enough, Naif is there to make you sit down and shut up. I suggest you do so. HUGE entrance, can't wait for more. Brendan Sloan
