lyrics

I was in the van when I saw the video
Where you ripped me apart with a microphone
So I said to Mel, well, at least I exist
Can we pull over
'Cause I'm getting sick
I spent the night and I let you bleach my hair
I tried not to cry
You tried not stare
And we fell asleep on a pull-out bed
Now do you pretend that we never met

Does it count when you fall in love on a mountain
And no one's shouting for you to watch out
And I know I kissed every single person with lips
But you were so special then
And you still are now
And on New Year's Eve I told you I'd never leave
But I was not used to telling the truth back then
If I could I'd do it all again

Got on the A
Took a train Upstate
Couldn't close my eyes or I'd see your face
And she texted me and said I should be ashamed
Got a brand new phone and I changed my name
I ate fast food and stayed at my parents' place
Then I sent some nudes
Just to act my age
Should I be ashamed
'Least I told the truth
Am I still to blame if you moved on too

Does it count when you fall in love on a mountain
And no one's shouting for you to watch out
And I know I kissed every single person with lips
But you were so special then and you still are now
Went South on tour
Slept on a kitchen floor and you stayed up with me
'Cause I was so scared of germs
And the radio plays that song we danced so slow
Now are you dancing to the same song with her
I can't stand to hear that Waltz anymore

There’s nothing scarier than being honest with yourself. For singer/songwriter Al Olender, facing her fear of the truth has been a cleansing, often cathartic process that’s led to the kind of revelations she had previously thought unobtainable. On her debut full-length album Easy Crier, the Upstate New York based artist asks: what happens if we vow to never tell a lie, ever again? ... more
