about

Recorded live at Twin Shrieks 2019 in Oakland, CA

First verse gets cut off in the recording. See lyrics for full song :)

lyrics

i keep myself inside
the rain falls down my window
sometimes it feels like i'm in limbo
but it's not that simple

thin me with turpentine
shine with a glossy glow
varnish on the outside
but unstable made of ethanol

and then you came along
out of the overflow
washed away my outsides
like you're acetone, it's chemical

and we could intertwine
combine our molecules
i want to dissolve myself inside you
hope i'm soluble

but you can't stir oil & vinegar
no you can't still oil & vinegar
force it together and it might work
but you can't stir oil & vinegar

but you can't stir oil & vinegar
no your can't stir oil & vinegar
emulsify and it might combine
but you can't stir oil & vinegar
