I burn 400 degrees in a gasoline sea.

dorky girl gives herself a moniker, pretends to sing and play guitar, makes some songs, makes a fool of herself. it's about love. seriously. she does this for the love.

Story behind the song

I always wanted to be one of those tall, skinny boys who walks so nonchalantly down back alleys.

Lyrics

skinny boy but I am
skinny boy but in this world
full of spider-web ink
and doing solemn dances

skinny boy but I am
skinny boy but I'm nothing
caught with a pill-bottle crush
an every day defiance

then when I go
with my shirt sleeves rolled 
I know

skinny boy but I am
skinny boy but mistaken
for a tin-can telephone
calling odessa forgive me

skinny boy but I am
skinny boy but another
cannot lift me out of this
cesspool of my desire

then when I go
with my shirt sleeves rolled
I know
odessa 
will come home
