lyrics

When you are awake, I will never call you up,
I will never call, because I will still be asleep.
And, when I am asleep, you will never call me up,
you will never call, which makes me think you're a deadbeat.

When we are apart, I don't think you could care less.
You're too tied up in nothingness.
Why don't you get a life, maybe see a friend or two…
maybe see a friend or is it they just won't see you.

Why aren't you ever with me, why won't you ever kiss me?

When I talk to you, you say you don't feel up to it,
say you don't feel well, and say it's something I don't get
So maybe you're at home, sitting in your parent's room,
sleeping where your parents sleep, and not thinking of me.

Why aren't you ever with me, why won't you ever kiss me?

Deadbeat, deadbeat.

If You're Dreaming

Like reading the diary of a loved one who passed before their time. Memory for memories I've never had. A further evolution of Anna Burch's style from Quit the Curse, but no less timeless for it. This album shifts away from the more experimental/instrumental styles of Quit the Curse, and in its place more massively emphasizes Anna Burch's divine song-writing. Evan Brown
