lyrics

easy people: they fall in love, get along, and nothing goes wrong. i've been hungry, hard-hearted, lost, running from you now that you're gone. i'm living on cheap wine and nicotine between all the nightmares, these evil dreams. called you up in the middle of a living hell; i don't know why. save me. don't come back. i can't afford to fall in love. this little heart's not strong enough - strong enough to feel the pain. it feels strange, but don't come back - even if you feel so sad. sometimes you're gonna feel like that. hold it back. don't come apart like i do. save me. just don't come back. 1991 - you came to town, i fell in love and followed you 'round. now i get lost on a lonely street where i've got no-one to meet. i'm living on cheap wine and nicotine between all the nightmares - these evil dreams. called you up in the middle of a living hell. i love you but i'm not well. i've been a mess since you've been gone. regular people just move on. don't pick up the phone, don't even start. it's better when we're apart.

about

The Scrimshanders Boston, Massachusetts

The Scrimshanders came out of Jamaica Plain, MA in 1998. John Magee, Tom Baker, Jamie Griffith and Kevin Scollan grabbed a case or two of Buds and a bag of songs one night; the rest is history. Ace pedal steelman Tim Obetz lent a regular hand. Joby DeCoster took over from Scollan on drums in the early going, and "Longneck" was born.

It took 9 years for the followup to appear. Will there be more? ... more
