lyrics

How's it going? How's the new place?
I say, it's fine, I put on a brave face
Where's your date? Oh, we broke up
Is what I'm thinking in my head, but I don't speak up

Should I just put out a press release?
Maybe that would be a stress release

Breaking news: she's all alone
And we all know that she’s home,
but she has not responded
to requests for comment

Breaking news: no one cares
Our sources say that no one's there
Alone in the universe
Sure, it could always be worse,
But it's hard to see how, right now

How’s the creative life? You still working from home?
I do all right. I spend a lot of time alone
Oh, isn't that tough? They look so concerned
But I’ve had enough. Just light the pyre and let me burn

Please, let me speak to the media
Update my page on Wikipedia
I'm not on Wikipedia. But if I were, that page would say,

Breaking news: she's all alone
And we all know that she’s home,
but she has not responded
to requests for comment

Breaking news: no one cares
Our sources say that no one's there
For her, 'cause who could love her?
How will she recover?
It's so hard to see how, right now

In the grand scheme of it all, I'm fine, I'm fine
The sun hasn't exploded yet, not yet
Big picture, I'm doing great, just great
Please send this section of the song to my parents, tell 'em not to worry
I'm definitely at healthy levels of depression

I'll be laughing in the background
I’ll be smiling in the crowd
I'll be going home alone
When conversation gets too loud

I’ll dump my drink out in the sink
I don't want to unravel, what will people think?

Breaking news: she's all alone
And we all know that she’s home,
but she has not responded
to requests for comment

Breaking news: no one cares
About my personal affairs
I am just so boring
Who cares if I'm scoring?
This whole thing's a real snooze
It's, like, yesterday's news

Is it working? Are they gone?
Have they all moved on?
Phew.

about

MIDI Myers Boston, Massachusetts

I'm an electro-pop musician who goes by "MIDI Myers," a tribute to my actual name (Maddy Myers) and the MIDI pad that I use when I play live, in conjunction with my keytar and live vocals. My lyrics often blend honest accounts of my own life experiences and anxieties with humor and pop culture allusions, all set to keytar leads, electronic drums, and a comprehensive bank of MIDI synths. ... more
