about

359 Pine is the address of a one-bedroom apartment I shared with two of my best friends. It’s where I threw away every one and everything worthwhile, due to an obsession with a specific drug. It’s about abandoning the person who had helped me get off that drug and gave my life meaning, just to go straight back. By the end, my one roommate was in prison facing a 10-15 year sentence, and I found myself homeless, living in a woodshed- yet this person had still not abandoned me. This is about the incapability to be someone the person you love deserves, and coping with that. This collected jumble of words some people are calling a song is to remember that as fucked up, insecure, hopeless or broken you might feel or be, there’s always someone there who genuinely cares about you, they just might not have found you yet. And I really don’t give a shit if this seems dramatic or cheesy.

-Charlie

lyrics

Charlie: Ailments become fragments of my imagination; I am encumbered by nothing. Hands in hand with a ghost of your former self, someone I once held away from the torments of situation; no longer am I strong enough- another voice has taken over, controlling, binding, leaving the person I am- fucking helpless, awaiting its next consensus. A face that is not there taunts me, breathing the same air that she held in her lungs, breaking, for it all seems so familiar. I have been lost and faded into this place, waking only to find it still surrounds me, blotting out the pain but with it, the comfort. For I was a being existing but absent of life, selective thoughts showing only bliss. Sifting through tarnished images of a past you were a part of, mind blanketed by memories- the ghost of your former self, someone I once held and time stood still. Time stood still, at least to us. At least to us.
