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 do miss myself.

Lyrics

I'm trying to wear this weight well
and to force myself from this room where I dwell
for hours and hours and years
to kiss all my fears on their lips, scream
"I'm better than this!"
because sometimes a lie
a lie can be right
like when I say "I don't miss myself!
I'm glad that bitch ran off
with somebody else.  I don't miss myself!"
but sometimes a lie
a lie is a lie
and I'm lying to you
I'm trying to do all the things
I want me to do
it starts with small steps,
like trying kill everything inside
that has grown its own will
then I push off to better things
like poisoning salvation when she
stops and she sings,
"I don't miss myself.
I'm glad that goddamn awful bitch
ran off with another
got lost in her lover.
she's his problem now, she's his problem now!"
now that sometimes
a lie is a lie
and I'm lying to you
