about

This track produced during quarantine along with this EP is an observation on how we hide behind humor to keep our hearts safe. A lack of empathy can be fatal.

lyrics

I want to be a comedian
I want to tell you my secrets
Stay a little unreliable
But pretty damn charming
Terribly disarming

I want the laughter to save me
So I don't feel things too deeply
We say we're ok with death
Nobody's ok with death unless you bring it to the party

Oh no, I can't out run this wave
Oh no, don't ever let them catch you saying

I want to be a comedian
I've got to tell you your feelings are really stressing me out
So I'll stay on my stage
A few feet away

I want to enter relationships
With too much baggage to handle them
We say we're ok with death
Nobody's ok with death unless it's how you're getting paid

Oh no I can't out run this wave
Oh no don't let them catch you saying

I want to be a comedian
I've got some pretty great stories and some pretty great edibles
To make it more credible
And to get me through the night

I want to tell you I think of you
I want to tell you I worry too
We say we're ok with death
Nobody's ok with death unless it's keeping you alive

Oh no I can't out run this wave
Oh no don't let them catch you saying
I want to be a comedian
