about

it's finally on the Bandcamp after all this time!

originally recorded for the Bekowsky sessions - which some of you may remember if you actually remember anything regarding my music - I've been trying to find an album to put this bad boy on. And I found it. This one.

It's about "My Sister's Keeper," a Digimon Adventure episode that's been burned in my brain for almost 20 years now. I don't think Tai would've read Catch-22 at any of the ages he's portrayed as in the song, but the original lyric was nonsense. Yossarian is the guy faced with the dilemma, not Gen. Dreedle.

Update (11/22/2019): remixed to better fit in with the album.

lyrics

She had heat stroke - we're unfairly yoked
leave her out in the sun - she won't wake up
I scour the perimeter - her sickness made us prisoner
I swear to God I'll protect her - oh, even if it kills me first

Here's hoping the light survives
Here's hoping the light gets by
Hold on, girl - we're saving you
Hold on - you won't be through

She came with cold at least five years ago
My parents made us stay inside - I kept her in my sight
I was bored immediately - stricken with Yossarian's deed
I brought her out to play and her eyes rolled back like yesterday

Here's hoping the light survives
Here's hoping the light gets by
Hold on, girl - we're saving you
Hold on - you won't be through

Mom and dad called me selfish
The light's livelihood I thought was well
Said she had double pneumonia
She'd be dead had I not called 'em up
That's why I feel the need to try to fix her
'cause if we don't get this, she'll be dead for sure
Because at the end, I'm no good
if I can't care for her livelihood

Here's hoping the light survives
Here's hoping the light gets by
Hold on, girl - we're saving you
Hold on - you won't be through
