I have severed all my ties, oh
I have taken to the skies
Hear the crack as I surpass the speed of sound
Feel the lurch of fear and freedom, hope
To god that I’m not leaving
But there’s nothing I can hope to cling to now, oh.
Years and years of nearer misses
Regurgitating useless wishes
Leave a bitter taste, on the tip of my tongue
It is fitting I should fly, when I have lived a lonely lie,
Derelict school walls; never learned my lesson.
Have you given up? Have you had enough?
Crawling in the dust, little bird, bloodied feathers, eyes blurred
Mad but meaning well, raised a little hell
Checking out, checking out, checking out-
And I wish you well.
Tapes are plastic, cold, and impressionable,
They are small, and hardly durable
My B-side is about to run out.
Had my casing ripped apart, a rewound head
A broken heart,
She’s long gone, and he’s moved on, I can understand that.
(Have you given up? Have you had enough?)
Have you given up? Have you had enough?
Crawling in the dust, little bird, bloodied feathers, eyes blurred
Cutting Tim free, he can’t trust me
Jessica got out early, to a certain degree,
Break another bone, losing thoughts of home,
Wish you could have called your house so you didn’t fly alone
After all this time, you still haven’t cried
I don’t want to die I don’t want to die I don’t want to die –
Checking out, checking out, checking out-
And I wish you well.
Checking out, checking out, checking out-
And I wish you well.
Checking out, checking out, checking out-
Saying my farewell.

I love this album so much. So many perfect songs to fit all of the jaw dropping moments from this arc. Especially the diary of sheriff isaak. What a banger. fishfeets
Introspective, homespun folk tunes from John Donne that feel informed by the sugary bleakness of '80s and '90s indie pop. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 1, 2023

This is a great adaptation of Arthuriana and a brilliant narrative album. I love how the queerness of the characters is handled as an integral part of the narrative and plot development without it being the end all be all of the characters themselves. my boy Gawain deserved better though maritarvaniti
