and the train
goes silent
what did you expect
it's the quiet carriage
and on the hawesbury river bridge
where i once saw jellyfish but no one believed me
and theres no bars on my phone
it's just me in here alone
and the encroaching business man i guess
he took both fuckin' armrests
but i'm still here
not in mind but in body
i'll do my best to embody someone
stronger than me
so i'm listening
to jen buxton
and the tears
are welling up
and i should not be out in public i know
cos i'm far from well enough
and it's distractions on distractions to occupy my brain
is 10am too early to be drinking on the train
cosi'm still here
not in mind but in body
i'll do my best to embody someone
stronger than me
and i'll just give it a go
i'll give it a go
i'm almost halfway here
and it'll be much worse to never know
so i'll give it a go
give it a go

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!

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
