about

I have so many friends in healthy, committed relationships. And it makes me smile to see them so happy, despite climate change slowly melting the planet, the rebirth of fascism in a brand new way and, if we're lucky, the bombs dropping to put us out of our misery.

When you've got "your person," I imagine it makes stomaching the whole thing a lot easier. Thanks for letting me be your third wheel, everyone.

Important note: I want to apologize for using traditional genders in those first two lines. I swear -- I tried to come up with some gender neutral way of singing those lines. I agonized over it. But I could never make it work and, when push comes to shove, it was time to record it. I'll try to do better next time.

A less important note: I swear, I wrote this song and had the title months before the COVID-19 pandemic when everyone started cracking "Love in the Time of Cholera" jokes. Goddamnit. (MD)

lyrics

There's a ___.
There's a ___.
There's each other
In a world

That's burning 'em up from the outside in
So fast they can't go home again.
They stare into each other's eyes
And watch the sky catch fire.

They sing in the light pollution:

"What's the point of falling in love when the world's falling down around us?
What's the point of sticking it out when the world's getting torn in two?
I guess I'd rather go down with you."

And then there's you
And there's me
And the endless summer catastrophe.

Always war
And disease
And we're losing grip on reality

And it's burning us up from the outside in
So fast we can't go home again.
Let's stare into each other's eyes
And watch the water rise.

We'll sing in the light pollution:

What's the point of falling in love when the world's falling down around us?
What's the point of sticking it out when the world's getting torn in two?
I guess I'd rather go down with you.
