ok it seems like people like this one, so I’d better do a good job.
I don’t know if there’s a non-corny way to sum up a song, but I’d say, from a macro perspective, this song is about making peace with your limitations and who you are. sounds very Hallmark card-y, but I think I spent a lot of time...
Fool that I am
Don’t trust myself not trusting no one
Most bullshit's a sham
And most of these shams are total bullshit
I'm scared of the Feds
Scared of what they’re gonna do when they catch me
Loud mouthed and red
Never could hide so I won’t
I figured
I am such a transparent machine, I’m like those Gameboy Colors
The shit my brain does makes me want to scream, but I don’t want another
A shadow world that’s just beyond my reach
So close I almost touch it
Where anything makes a lick of sense to me
I turn too slow but brush it’s borders with my fingertips, again
Fuck this shit I’d rathеr play pretend
Facebook is bad
And I’m mad at mysеlf anytime I get on there
Addicted to trash
I'm addicted to gawking at neocon losers
My gift it seems
Is evoking the ire of the Puritan wine mom
Sure, just leave it to me
I’ve been doing this shit for so long
Y’all know that
I am such a transparent machine, I’m like those Gameboy Colors
The shit my brain does makes me want to scream, but I don’t want another
A shadow world that’s just beyond my reach
So close I almost touch it
Where anything makes a lick of sense to me
I turn too slow but brush it’s borders with my fingertips, again
Fuck all this I’d rather play pretend
Remember going to the movies with my friends
Fuck this shit I’d rather play pretend
Charlie-allen released Gameboy Color on Fri Feb 11 2022.
