about

Kevin Schlereth and I both wrote a song based on the same guitar line and words "all these possessions are not sufficient for a good life". This is where I went with my version. I've always wanted to write a song where the lyrics layered over top each other such as in "3 Inch Horses, Two Faced Monsters" by Modest Mouse. The third stanza was the original birdge // ending to "I Don't Know Where I Am Going". We did a super limited run 7" Split with these songs on them. He has since re-recorded his version and put it on his full-length "Don't Die! Please Don't Die!"

lyrics

Standard Capo 1

Stanza 1: Am C
Stanza 2: Am C G Em
Stanza 3: Am

All these possessions
I've deemed necessary
I do not need them
I do no, need them

All these possessions
I've deemed necessary
I do not need them, deem them
unnecessary

All these possessions
I do not need them for
a good life
a good life

All these possessions
I've amassed throughout my life
Will become obsolete to me
Once I die

Every single thing
that I think know
Is bound to be buried
under H20

All these possessions
Will be washed out to sea
so it's hard for me to deem them
necessary

All these possessions
are so unnecessary
I'll pass away at a very young age

All these possessions
I've amassed throughout my life
Will become obsolete
It's just a matter of time

All these possessions
I've amassed throughout my life
Will become obsolete to me
Once I die

All these possessions
I've amassed throughout my life
Will become obsolete
It's just a matter of time

All these possessions
I've amassed throughout my life
Will become obsolete to me
Once I die

All these possessions
I've amassed throughout my life
Will become obsolete
It's just a matter of time

When the tidal wave comes and it drowns us all
I'll remind you of how I'd seen it all
From the day I was born I've dreamed of a ball
that was covered in fire that would drown us all
When the tidal wave comes and it drowns us all
I'll remind you of how I'd seen it all
From the day I was born I've dreamed of a ball
that was covered in fire that would drown us all

From Colorado to Arizona
and everything west is bound to drown yeah

Every single thing that I think know
Is bound to be buried under H20
Every single thing that I think know
Is bound to be buried under H20
Every single thing that I think know
Is bound to be buried under H20
Every single thing that I think know
Is bound to be buried under H20

When the tidal wave comes and it drowns us all
I'll remind you of how I'd seen it all
From the day I was born I've dreamed of a ball
that was covered in fire that would drown us all
When the tidal wave comes and it drowns us all
I'll remind you of how I'd seen it all
From the day I was born I've dreamed of a ball
that was covered in fire that would drown us all

From Colorado to Arizona
and everything west is bound to drown yeah
From Colorado to Arizona
and everything west is bound to drown yeah
