about
for context, in 2020 i made a bunch of fake bands with the help of 20 glorious youtube producers. a long, long time ago, someone on tumblr asked me nicely to put them all here, and a long, long time ago, i said "OF COURSE I WILL" and then forgot. i'm starting to do so now.
this one is my favorite of the bunch, a weird one that let me scream. i was the proudest of its band name, cute mist operator, and of its album art, which i would later re-paint to use as the windowville album art. wouldn't ya know it?
lyrics
[nonsense]
yeah, it’ll be alright
yeah, it’ll be just fine
yeah, there are bugs in my ears
and i am falling apart but
by god, i’m still able to love you hard
it’s all alright since
we’re the ones still doing our part
and i know it’s bad but
i’ll fan you when you’re getting hot
and it will be alright because i said it’s so
and my heart is asleep because you let it go
and it will be a dream of ours, i said it so
and i will write a sonnet that you’ll never know
i’m drinking water and
my ice cubes are the size of my teeth
i aim, in simple terms, to be
the weirdest thing that you’ll meet
and i’m just fine ‘cause
you’ve chosen by-my-side to be
and i know it’s grand since
you‘re just like a mirror to me
(can you help me?)
when i turn my back,
are they laughing at me still?
or, when i look away,
do i gain powers with which i kill?
all this love i hold for you
must be poisoning my brain.
it’s all alright -
i didn’t wanna think anyway.
and it will be alright because i said it’s so
and my heart is asleep because you let it go
and it will be a dream of ours, i said it so
and i will write a sonnet that you’ll never know
(fine!!!!)

many thanks to stephen's instrumentals who produced these weird sounds for me to yell over. you have since rebranded and wiped your channels of any identifying marks so i can't tell where you are, but stephen, i love you and i miss you.
