If We Make It Through December

## *So Much Wine* chronology

**"If We Make It Through December"** is a cover by Phoebe Bridgers of the 1973 song "If We Make It Thru December" by Merle Haggard. It was released on November 23, 2020 as a part of her holiday cover collection, *So Much Wine*.

## Background

Bridgers’ version of the 1973 track opens with a somber piano, as she sings about unemployment and isolation — particularly fitting for a year like 2020. The rendition was produced by Bridgers, Tony Berg, and Ethan Gruska, who previously worked on *Punisher* and *Stranger in the Alps*. Proceeds from the song will go towards the Downton Women’s Center in Los Angeles, which focuses on serving and empowering homeless women.

## Lyrics

If we make it through December

Everything's gonna be alright, I know

It's the coldest time of winter

And I shiver when I see the falling snow

If we make it through December

Got plans to be in a warmer town come summertime

Maybe even California

If we make it through December, we'll be fine

Got laid off at the factory

And their timing is not the greatest in the world

Heaven knows I've been working hard

Wanted Christmas to be right for my girl

I don't mean to hate December

It's meant to be the happy time of year

And my little girl don't understand

Why we can't afford no Christmas here

If we make it through December

Everything's gonna be alright, I know

It's the coldest time of winter

And I shiver when I see the falling snow

If we make it through December

Got plans to be in a warmer town come summertime

Maybe even California

If we make it through December, we'll be fine

Maybe even California

If we make it through December, we'll be fine

***Stranger in the Alps*** is the debut studio album by Phoebe Bridgers. It was released on September 22, 2017 through Dead Oceans.

## Background

*Stranger in the Alps* was produced by Tony Berg and Ethan Gruska. Bridgers recorded the album in between tours over 2016 at Berg's studio in Brentwood, Los Angeles. The album's title is a reference to the edited-for-TV version of the film The Big Lebowski, which changed Walter Sobchak's (John Goodman) line "Do you see what happens when you fuck a stranger in the ass?" to "Do you see what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps?" Bridgers signed a recording contract with Dead Oceans in June 2017, and the album was scheduled for release on September 22.

## Music video

> "*This is a bunch of things I had on my to-do list: I wanted to scream; I wanted to have a metal song; I wanted to write about driving up the coast to Northern California, which I’ve done a lot in my life. It's like a super specific feeling. This is such a stoned thought, but it feels kind of like purgatory to me, doing that drive, just because I have done it at every stage of my life, so I get thrown into this time that doesn't exist when I'm doing it, like I can't differentiate any of the times in my memory. I guess I always pictured that during the apocalypse, I would escape to an endless drive up north. It's definitely half a ballad. I kind of think about it as, ‘Well, what genre is [My Chemical Romance’s] “Welcome to the Black Parade” in?’ It's not really an anthem—I don't know. I love tricking people with a vibe and then completely shifting. I feel like I want to do that more.*"

## Lyrics

Somewhere in Germany but I can't place it

Man, I hate this part of Texas

Close my eyes, fantasize

Three clicks and I'm home

When I get back I'll lay around

And I'll get up and lay back down

Romanticize the quiet life

There's no place like my room

But you gotta go

I know, I know, I know

Like a wave that crashed and melted on the shore

Not even the burnouts are out here anymore

And you had to go

I know, I know, I know

Out in the park we watch the sunset

Talking on a rusty swing set

After a while you went quiet and I got mean

Always pushing you away from me

But you come back with gravity

And when I call you come home

A bird in your teeth

So I gotta go

I know, I know, I know

When the sirens sound you'll hide under the floor

But I'm not gonna go down with my hometown in a tornado

I'm gonna chase it

I know, I know, I know

I gotta go now

I know, I know, I know

Driving out into the sun

Let the ultraviolet cover me up

Went looking for a creation myth

Ended up with a pair of cracked lips

Windows down, scream along

To some America first rap country song

A slaughterhouse, an outlet mall

Slot machines, fear of God

Windows down, heater on

Big bolts of lightning hanging low

Over the coast, everyone's convinced

It's a government drone or alien spaceship

Either way, we're not alone

I'll find a new place to be from

A haunted house with a picket fence

To float around and ghost my friends

No, I'm not afraid to disappear

The billboard said the end is near

I turned around, there was nothing there

Yeah, I guess the end is here

Yeah, I guess the end is here

I guess the end is here

Yeah, I guess the end is here

## Lyrics

**[Phoebe Bridgers:]**

'Kay

Back in the States now

In a college town

I would walk around

But it's really comin' down

Mesmerized by double lines

Two yellow tightropes

I'm makin' good time

**[All:]**

I am never anywhere

Anywhere I go

When I'm home, I'm never there

Long enough to know

**[Julien Baker:]**

Bein' in love

Is the same thing as bein' alone

Givin' the sorrow some company

Nothing to say

But stay on the phone

No, I'm sorry I do not know

What else you want from me

**[All:]**

I am never anywhere

Anywhere I go

When I'm home, I'm never there

Long enough to know

**[Lucy Dacus:]**

You say, "How are you?"

I say, "I don't know

Let's dissolve the band

Move to Idaho"

Everyone's around

And I hear you smiling

You say, "I love you"

I say, "You too"

**[All:]**

I am never anywhere

Anywhere I go

When I'm home, I'm never there

Long enough to know

Ooh

Ooh

I am never anywhere

Anywhere I go

When I'm home, I'm never there

Long enough

> "*Thematically, it's like a sequel to ‘Moon Song.’ It's like when you get what you asked for and then you're dating someone who hates themselves. Sonically, it's one of the only songs I've ever written in a dream. I rolled over in the middle of the night and hummed—I’m still looking for this fucking voice memo, because I know it exists, but it's so crazy-sounding, so scary. I woke up and knew what I wanted it to be about and then took it in the studio. That's Blake Mills on clarinet, which was so funny: He was like a little schoolkid practicing in the hallway of Sound City before coming in to play.*"

## Lyrics

Emotional affair

Overly sincere

Smoking in the car

Windows up

Crocodile tears

Run the tap 'til it's clear

Drift off on the floor

I drag you to the shore

Sweating through the heat

You're gonna drown in your sleep

For sure, wake up and start a big fire

In our one room apartment

But I'm too tired

To have a pissing contest

All the bad dreams that you hide

Show me yours, I'll show you mine

Call me when you land

I'll drive around again

One hand on the wheel

One in your mouth

Turn me on and turn me down

Baby, you're a vampire

You want blood and I promised

I'm a bad liar

With a savior complex

All the skeletons you hide

Show me yours, and I'll show you mine

All the bad dreams that you hide

Show me yours

Would You Rather

**"Would You Rather"** is a song by Phoebe Bridgers. It is the ninth track on her debut album, *Stranger in the Alps*.

## Lyrics

Playing would you rather

When it comes to fire

You always say that you'd prefer to drown

You were still in the ambulance

When the cop suggested

You're the one who tried to burn it down

Come to find out

I'm a can on a string, you're on the end

We find our way out

Of a suicide pact of our family and friends

In the background I'll be waiting

We have the same face

I laid awake

As someone shoved you up against a wall

Quarantined in a bad dream

He's half the man

And you're twice as tall

Come to find out

I'm a can on a string, you're on the end

We find our way out

Of a suicide pact of our family and friends

In the background I'll be waiting

Next time I see you you'll show me

A hundred different ways to say the same things

Come to find out

I'm a can on a string, you're on the end

We find our way out

Of a suicide pact of our family and friends

And when you touch down I'll be waving
Nothing New

**"Nothing New"** is the twenty-third track from American singer and songwriter Taylor Swift's second re-recorded studio album, *Red (Taylor's Version)*, released on November 12, 2021, through Republic Records. The song features guest vocals by Phoebe Bridgers.

## Lyrics

**[Taylor Swift:]**

They tell you while you're young

"Girls, go out and have your fun"

Then they hunt and slay the ones who actually do it

Criticize the way you fly

When you're soaring through the sky

Shoot you down and then they sigh

And say, "She looks like she's been through it"

Lord, what will become of me

Once I've lost my novelty?

I've had too much to drink tonight

And I know it's sad, but this is what I think about

And I wake up in the middle of the night

It's like I can feel time moving

How can a person know everythin' at eighteen

But nothin' at twenty-two?

And will you still want me

When I'm nothing new?

**[Phoebe Bridgers:]**

How long will it be cute, all this cryin' in my room?

When you can't blame it on my youth

And roll your eyes with affection

And my cheeks are growing tired

From turning red and faking smiles

Are we only biding time 'til I lose your attention?

**[Both:]**

And someone else lights up the room (Ah)

People love an ingénue (Ah)

I've had (I've had) too much to drink tonight

How did I go from growin' up to breaking down?

And I wake up (Wake up) in the middle of the night

It's like I can feel time movin'

How can a person know everything at eighteen

But nothing at twenty-two?

And will you still want me

When I'm nothing new?

I know someday I'm gonna meet her, it's a fever dream

The kind of radiance you only have at seventeen

She'll know the way and then she'll say she got the map from me

I'll say I'm happy for her, then I'll cry myself to sleep

Oh, woah, oh (Oh)

Oh, woah, oh, woah, oh (Oh)

I've had (I've had) too much to drink tonight

But I wonder if they'll miss me once they drive me out

I wake up (Wake up) in the middle of the night

And I can feel time moving

How can a person know everything at eighteen

But nothing at twenty-two?

And will you still want me

Will you still want me

Will you still want me

When I'm nothing new?
Iris (ft. Maggie Rogers)

## Lyrics

And I'd give up forever to touch you

'Cause I know that you feel me somehow

You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be

And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment

And all I can breathe is your life

And sooner or later, it's over

I just don't wanna miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me

'Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming

Or the moment of truth in your lies

When everything feels like the movies

Yeah, you bleed just to know, you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me

'Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me

'Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me

'Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
Scott Street

**"Scott Street"** is a song by Phoebe Bridgers. It is the fifth track on her debut album, *Stranger in the Alps*.

## Lyrics

Walking Scott Street, feeling like a stranger

With an open heart, open container

I've got a stack of mail and a tall can

It's a shower beer it's a payment plan

There's helicopters over my head

Every night when I go to bed

Spending money and I earned it

When I'm lonely, that's when I'll burn it

Do you feel ashamed

When you hear my name

I asked you "How is your sister?

I heard she got her degree"

And I said, "That makes me feel old"

He said, "What does that make me?"

I asked you "How is playing drums?"

You said it's too much shit to carry

"And what about the band?"

You said they're all getting married

Do you feel ashamed

When you hear my name

Anyway, don't be a stranger

Anyway, don't be a stranger

Don't be a stranger
Chinese Satellite

## *Punisher* chronology

> "*I have no faith—and that's what it's about. My friend Harry put it in the best way ever once. He was like, ‘Man, sometimes I just wish I could make the Jesus leap.’ But I can't do it. I mean, I definitely have weird beliefs that come from nothing. I wasn't raised religious. I do yoga and stuff. I think breathing is important. But that's pretty much as far as it goes. I like to believe that ghosts and aliens exist, but I kind of doubt it. I love science—I think science is like the closest thing to that that you’ll get. If I'm being honest, this song is about turning 11 and not getting a letter from Hogwarts, just realizing that nobody's going to save me from my life, nobody's going to wake me up and be like, ‘Hey, just kidding. Actually, it's really a lot more special than this, and you're special.’ No, I’m going to be the way that I am forever. I mean, secretly, I am still waiting on that letter, which is also that part of the song, that I want someone to shake me awake in the middle of the night and be like, ‘Come with me. It's actually totally different than you ever thought.’ That’d be sweet.*"

**"Chinese Satellite"** is a song by Phoebe Bridgers. It is the sixth track on her second studio album, *Punisher*.

## Background

The title comes from a metaphor in the chorus, which could be referencing the Starline Tours and other bus tours in Hollywood that drive tourists to the homes of many celebrities, referred to by many as "stars".

## Lyrics

I've been running around in circles

Pretending to be myself

Why would somebody do this on purpose

When they could do something else?

Drowning out the morning birds

With the same three songs over and over

I wish I wrote it, but I didn't so I learn the words

Hum along 'til the feeling's gone forever

Took a tour to see the stars

But they weren't out tonight

So I wished hard on a Chinese satellite

I want to believe

Instead I look at the sky and I feel nothing

You know I hate to be alone

I want to belong

You were screamin' at the Evangelicals

They were screamin' right back from what I remember

When you said I will never be your vegetable

Because I think when you're gone it's forever

But you know I'd stand on the corner

Embarrassed with a picket sign

If it meant I would see you

When I die

Sometimes when I can't sleep

It's just a matter of time before I'm hearing things

Swore I could feel you through the walls

But that's impossible

I want to believe

That if I go outside I'll see a tractor beam

Coming to take me to where I'm from

I want to go home

## Other versions

   On March 11, 2022, Phoebe Bridgers released an acoustic version of the song titled "Chinese Satellite (Live From Sound City)". Bridgers recorded it in Los Angeles at Sound City Studios, and proceeds from the single go toward the label’s efforts to raise $250,000 toward relieving homelessness in Bloomington, Indiana. The new version appears as part of Secretly Canadian’s SC25 Singles series.

> "*The song has been kicking about since the end of 2019. Katie wrote it, and at the time it was just the pre-chorus. The bridge lyrics were in the place of the chorus. It was synth-ier, but Jo and I had the instinct to make it feel like opening credits of a late-‘90s, early-aughts rom-com. We had been kicking around the idea of having someone feature on the second verse, and Phoebe came to mind—this was prior to us signing to her label. She loved the song and was so stoked to hop on it, which made us feel so, so good.*"

## Lyrics

**[MUNA:]**

Sun down and I'm feeling lifted

Downtown, cherry lipstick

Watch her silk dress dancing in the wind

Watch it brush against her skin

Makes me wanna try her on

Like, life's so fun, life's so fun

Got my mini skirt and my rollerblades on

Bag on my side 'cause I'm out 'til dawn

Keeping it light like silk chiffon

Life's so fun, life's so fun

Don't need to worry about no one

She said that I got her if I want

She's so soft like silk chiffon

Silk chiffon

That's how it feels, oh, when she's on me

Silk chiffon

That's how it feels, oh, when she's on me

(Oh, when she's on)

**[Phoebe Bridgers:]**

I'm high and I'm feeling anxious

Inside of the CVS

When she turns 'round halfway down the aisle

With that 'you're on camera' smile

Like she wants to try me on

**[All:]**

And life's so fun, life's so fun

Got my mini skirt and my rollerblades on

Bag on my side 'cause I'm out 'til dawn

Keeping it light like silk chiffon

Life's so fun, life's so fun

Don't need to worry about no one

She said that I got her if I want

She's so soft like silk chiffon

Silk chiffon

That's how it feels, oh, when she's on me

Silk chiffon

That's how it feels, oh, when she's on me

If it feels good to me, it feels good to me

Oo, why wouldn't it be? Oo, why wouldn't it be?

If it feels good to me, it feels good to me

Oo, why wouldn't it be? Oo, why wouldn't it be?

She's so soft like silk chiffon

Silk chiffon

That's how it feels, oh, when she's on me

Silk chiffon

That's how it feels, oh, when she's on me

**[MUNA:]**

Oh, when she's on me
Moon Song

## *Punisher* chronology

> "*I feel like songs are kind of like dreams, too, where you're like, ‘I could say it's about this one thing, but...’ At the same time it’s so hyper-specific to people and a person and about a relationship, but it's also every single song. I feel complex about every single person I've ever cared about, and I think that's pretty clear. The through line is that caring about someone who hates themselves is really hard, because they feel like you're stupid. And you feel stupid. Like, if you complain, then they'll go away. So you don't complain and you just bottle it up and you're like, ‘No, step on me again, please.’ It’s that feeling, the wanting-to-be-stepped-on feeling.*"

**"Moon Song"** is a song by Phoebe Bridgers. It is the seventh track on her second studio album, *Punisher*.

## Lyrics

You asked to walk me home

But I had to carry you

And you pushed me in

Now my feet can't touch the bottom of you

You couldn't have, you couldn't have

Stuck your tongue down the throat of somebody

Who loves you more

I will wait for the next time you want me

Like a dog with a bird at your door

We hate Tears in Heaven

But it's sad his baby died

We fought about John Lennon

Until I cried

Then I went to bed upset

Now I'm dreaming

And you're singing at my birthday

I've never seen you smiling so big

It's nautical themed

And there's something I'm supposed to say

Can't for the life of me remember what it is

And if I could give you the moon

I would give you the moon

You are sick, and you're married

And you might be dying

But you're holding me like water in your hands

When you saw the dead little bird, you started crying

But you know the killer doesn't understand

> "*This song is about being on tour and hating tour, and then being home and hating home. I just always want to be where I'm not, which I think is pretty not special of a thought, but it is true. With boygenius, we took a red-eye to play a late-night TV show, which sounds glamorous, but really it was hurrying up and then waiting in a fucking backstage for like hours and being really nervous and talking to strangers. I remember being like, 'This is amazing and horrible at the same time. I'm with my friends, but we're all miserable. We feel so lucky and so spoiled and also shitty for complaining about how tired we are.' I miss the life I complained about, which I think a lot of people are feeling. I hope the parties are good when this shit [the pandemic] is over. I hope people have a newfound appreciation for human connection and stuff. I definitely will for tour.*"

**"Kyoto"** is a song by Phoebe Bridgers. It was released through Dead Oceans on April 9, 2020, as the second single from her second studio album, *Punisher*.

## Background

*"This song is about impostor syndrome. About being in Japan for the first time, somewhere I’ve always wanted to go, and playing my music to people who want to hear it, feeling like I’m living someone else’s life. I dissociate when bad things happen to me, but also when good things happen. It can feel like I’m performing what I think I’m supposed to be like. I wrote this one as a ballad first, but at that point I was so sick of recording slow songs, it turned into this."*
Bridgers had hoped to film her "Kyoto" video in Japan last month, but was forced to alter her plans due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Instead, she made the visual with a green screen in Los Angeles.

## Lyrics

Day off in Kyoto, got bored at the temple

Looked around at the 7-11

The band took the speed train, went to the arcade

I wanted to go but I didn't

You called me from a payphone, they still got pay phones

It costs a dollar a minute

To tell me you're getting sober and you wrote me a letter

But I don't have to read it

I'm gonna kill you

If you don't beat me to it

Dreaming through Tokyo skies

I wanted to see the world

Then I flew over the ocean

And I changed my mind

Sunset's been a freak show

On the weekend so I've been driving out to the suburbs

To park at the Goodwill and stare at the chem trails

With my little brother

He said you called on his birthday

You were off by like ten days

But you get a few points for trying

Remember getting the truck fixed when you let us drive it

25 felt like flying

I don't forgive you

But please don't hold me to it

Born under Scorpio skies

I wanted to see the world

Through your eyes until it happened

Then I changed my mind

Guess I lied

I'm a liar

Who lies

'Cause I'm a liar

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

## *So Much Wine* chronology

**"Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas"** is a cover by Phoebe Bridgers of the 1944 song "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" by Judy Garland. It was released on November 24, 2017 as a part of her holiday cover collection, *So Much Wine*.

## Background

Bridgers shared a cover of all-time classic "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas". She puts her own spin on the track, making it a haunting, melancholic version that’s filled with sweeps of slide guitar, dusty percussion and her own airy yet emotional vocals.

## Lyrics

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

Let your heart be light

Next year, all our troubles

Will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

Make the Yuletide gay

Next year, all our troubles

Will be miles away

Once again as in olden days

Happy golden days of yore

Faithful friends who were dear to us

Will be near to us once more

Someday soon, we all will be together

If the fates allow

Until then, we'll have to muddle through somehow

So have yourself a merry little Christmas now

## Lyrics

Sweet

Stunning 8K resolution, meditation app

In honor of the revolution, it's half-off at the Gap

Deadpool's self-awareness, loving parents, harmless fun

The backlash to the backlash to the thing that's just begun

There it is again

That funny feeling

That funny feeling

There it is again

That funny feeling

That funny feeling

The surgeon general's pop-up shop, Robert Iger's face

Discount Etsy agitprop, Bugles' take on race

Female Colonel Sanders, easy answers, civil war

The whole world at your fingertips, the ocean at your door

The live-action Lion King, the Pepsi Halftime Show

Twenty-thousand years of this, seven more to go

Carpool Karaoke, Steve Aoki, Logan Paul

A gift shop at the gun range, a mass shooting at the mall

There it is again

That funny feeling

That funny feeling

There it is again

That funny feeling

That funny feeling

Reading Pornhub's terms of service, going for a drive

Obeying all the traffic laws in Grand Theft Auto V

Full agoraphobic, losing focus, cover blown

A book on getting better hand-delivered by a drone

Total disassociation, fully out of your mind

Googling "derealization," hating what you find

That unapparent summer air in early fall

The quiet comprehending of the ending of it all

There it is again

That funny feeling

That funny feeling

There it is again

That funny feeling

That funny feeling

Hey, what can you say?

We were all overdue

But it'll be over soon

You wait

Hey, what can you say?

We were all overdue

But it'll be over soon

Just wait

Ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da-da

Hey, what can you say?

We were all overdue

But it'll be over soon

Ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da-da

## Lyrics

I got your letter today

And I miss you all so much here

I can't wait to see you all

And I'm counting the days here

I still believe that there's gold

At the end of the world

And I'll come home to Illinois

On the day after tomorrow

And it's so hard and it's cold here

And I'm tired of taking orders

And I miss old Rockford town

Up by the Wisconsin border

What I miss, you won't believe

Shoveling snow and raking leaves

And my plane will touch down

On the day after tomorrow

I close my eyes every night

And I dream that I can hold you

They fill us full of lies everyone buys

About what it means to be a soldier

I still don't know how I'm supposed to feel

About all the blood that's been spilled

Will God on his throne get me back home

On the day after tomorrow?

You can't deny, the other side

Don't want to die any more than we do

What I'm trying to say is, don't they pray

To the same God that we do?

Tell me how does God choose

Whose prayers does he refuse?

Who turns the wheel? Who throws the dice

On the day after tomorrow?

Silent night, holy night

All is calm, all is bright

I am not fighting for justice

I am not fighting for freedom

I am fighting for my life

And another day in the world here

I just do what I've been told

We're just the gravel on the road

And only the lucky ones come home

On the day after tomorrow

And the summer, it too will fade

And with it brings the winter's frost, dear

And I know we too are made

Of all the things that we have lost here

I'll be twenty-one today

I been saving all my pay

And my plane will touch down

On the day after tomorrow

And my plane, it will touch down

On the day after tomorrow

## Lyrics

#### [Verse 1]

Take my money, take my soul

Edward's house and rock 'n roll

Walkin' home was easier with you, ooh

Let me speak, I'm losin' steam

Listen to The Second Gleam

Smoke a little, tease me like you do, ooh

##### [Chorus]

And you're more than I can take

Can't you see I'm fallin' through?

The way your muscles move, drivin' in your car

You're a flashin' light on my radar

##### [Verse 2]

Jump the garden wall tonight, run until you're outta sight

Lead me, chasin' hopeless through the dark, whoa

Each morning I get dressed for you

Heart-sick feeling right on cue

You've got me like a walk in the park, whoa

#### [Chorus]

Take my hands as they shake

Why can't you hear me callin' you?

The way your veins pop out, playin' your guitar

You're a flashin' light on my radar

And the mornin' tastes so fake

But what else can I do?

The way it's all a part of who you are

You're a flashin' light on my radar

Chauve-Souris singe

Les Chauve-Souris Singes sont une race de chauve-souris, qui vit dans les marais. Elles ont la particularité d'avoir à la fois un sonar et un œil pour détecter les proies dans la jungle et les marécages.

Se perchant dans les branches, elles volent mal et planent la plupart du temps, prenant leur élan de la cime des arbres, auxquels elles montent sans difficulté avec leurs griffes aux bouts des ailes et leur agilité naturelle. Cette capacité à grimper aux arbres et à s'élancer des cimes leur a valu leur nom.

Les chauve-souris Singes ont également une langue adhésive pour attraper les mouches et les moustiques (qui prolifèrent dans les marais), et des pattes arrières développées qui ressemblent à des mains. Leur sang est un poison infect qui repousse les moustiques et leur évite les piqûres. Craignant tout ce qui est plus gros qu'eux, les Chauve-souris Singes fuient les hommes et ne cherchent pas la confrontation.
Smoke Signals

## Music video

> "*"Smoke Signals" is a love song about waking up to your reality, in a way, finding someone who shares the same interests as you.*"
> ― Phoebe Bridgers

**"Smoke Signals"** is a song by Phoebe Bridgers. It was released on January 9, 2017 by Dead Oceans as the second single from her debut studio album, *Stranger in the Alps*.

## Background

A reference to The Smiths’ "How Soon is Now" present in "Smoke Signals". The deaths of Lemmy and David Bowie are both mental markers for different memories — a trip to the subject’s hometown, a conversation about the current state of Los Angeles, and a stay at an anonymous Holiday Inn.

## Lyrics

I went with you up to the place you grew up in

We spent a week in the cold

Just long enough to Walden it with you

Any longer, it would've got old

Singing "Ace of Spades" when Lemmy died

But nothing's changed, L.A.'s alright

I'm sleeping in my bed again, and getting in my head

And then, walk around the reservoir

You, you must've been looking for me

Sending smoke signals

Pelicans circling

Burning trash out on the beach

One of your eyes is always half-shut

Something happened when you were a kid

I didn't know you then and I'll never understand

Why it feels like I did

"How Soon Is Now" in an 80s sedan

You slept inside of it because your dad

Lived in a campground in the back of a van

You said that song'll creep you out until you're dead

And you must've been looking for me

Sending smoke signals

Pelicans circling

Burning trash out on the beach

I want to live at the Holiday Inn

Where somebody else makes the bed

We'll watch TV while the lights on the street

Put all the stars to death

It's been on my mind since Bowie died

Just checking out to hide from life

And all of our problems, I'm gonna solve 'em

With you riding shotgun, speeding, 'cause fuck the cops

And you, you must've been looking for me

Sending smoke signals

Pelicans circling

Burning trash out on the beach

I buried a hatchet, it's coming up lavender

The future's unwritten; the past is a corridor

I'm at the exit, looking back through the hall

You are anonymous, I am a concrete wall

## Lyrics

**[Julien Baker:]**

Dreamcatcher on the rearview mirror

Hasn't caught a thing yet

Twenty dollars and a souvenir

Anything's worth trying

To stay out of your nightmares

See, I was in your dream last night

Always end up dying

You said, because of course I did

Ooh

Ooh

**[Phoebe Bridgers:]**

Always managed to move in

Right next to cemeteries

And never far from a hospital

I don't know what that tells you about me

**[All:]**

Pulling thorns out of my palm

Work a midnight surgery

When you cut a hole into my skull

Do you hate what you see like I do?

Ooh

Ooh

Ooh

Ooh

Ooh

Ooh

Stay Down

## *Boygenius (EP)* chronology

> "*"Stay Down" is a song about responding to confrontation, sort of an analysis of the feelings that arise when a person is trying to deal with a conflict and sifting through healthy and unhealthy ways to respond. [...] So essentially it is a forewarning or a forecast of what ends up happening after a violent emotional reaction, it ends up taking a toll on the people closest to you, and if it isn’t ever neutralized, will cause people to flee that environment out of necessity to preserve their own health.*"
> ― Julien Baker
>
>

**"Stay Down"** is a song by Boygenius. It was released through Matador Records on August 21, 2018, as the third and final single from their debut EP, *boygenius*.

## Lyrics

**[Julien Baker:]**

Wasn't a fighter 'til somebody told me

I had better learn to lean into the punch

So it don't hurt as bad when they leave

There you were, turnin' your cheek

I look at you and you look at a screen

I'm in the back seat of my body

I'm just steerin' my life in a video game

Similar acts and a different name

It's a slow down

**[All:]**

So would you teach me I'm the villain, aren't I?

Aren't I the one constantly repentin' for a difficult mind?

Push me down into the water like a sinner, hold me under

And I'll never come up again

I'll just stay down

'Cause it's a half life, it's a fallout

It takes so long for me to settle down

And when I finally do, there's no one else around

**[Julien Baker:]**

So I stay down

So I stay down

So I stay down

So I stay down

So I stay down

Christmas Song

## *So Much Wine* chronology

**"Christmas Song"** is a cover by Phoebe Bridgers of the 2008 song "Christmas Song" by McCarthy Trenching. It was released on December 12, 2018 as a part of her holiday cover collection, *So Much Wine*.

## Background

Bridgers’ slowed-down cover of "Christmas Song," originally by Nebraska folkies McCarthy Trenching, leans into December desolation with conviction: "Sadness comes crashing like a brick through the window," she sings, with help from fellow L.A. sadster Jackson Browne, over a mix of electric piano, sleigh bells and strings, "and it’s Christmas, so no one can fix it."

But by the time the final grand sing-along chorus comes around, it sounds like an entire block of lonesome Christmas carolers who’ve mercifully found their people. "You don’t have to be alone to be lonesome," a swell of voices cry out, merging their solitude into something that sounds like togetherness, "it’s easy to forget."

## Lyrics

Comin' back from the country

Full of good food and lousy beer

This winter's so dry and the dirt road so dusty

At the lightest fall of rain, the bacteria bloom

You don't have to be alone to be lonesome

It's easy to forget

The sadness comes crashin' like a brick through the window

And it's Christmas, so no one can fix it

Tethered to a table

With that happy holiday crowd

And it's anchors aweigh, looks like smooth sailin'

But the merest hint of waves could capsize you

You don't have to be alone to be lonesome

It's so easy to forget

The sadness comes crashin' like a brick through the window

And it's Christmas, so no one can fix it

The desire for annihilation

Is as common as it is unkind

And it's hard to recognize the situation

When you're desperately tryin' to have a good time

You don't have to be alone to be lonesome

It's so easy to forget

The sadness comes crashin' like a brick through the window

And it's Christmas, so no one can fix it

Yeah, it's Christmas

So no one can fix it

## Lyrics

There's a valley of sorrow in my soul

Where every night I hear the thunder roll

Like the sound of a distant gun

Over all the damage I have done

And the shadows filling up this land

Are the ones I built with my own hand

There is no comfort from the cold

Of this valley of sorrow in my soul

There's a river of darkness in my blood

And through every vein I feel the flood

I can find no bridge for me to cross

No way to bring back what is lost

Into the night it soon will sweep

Down where all my grievances I keep

But it won't wash away the years

Or one single hard and bitter tear

And the rock of ages I have known

Is a weariness down in the bone

I used to ride it like a rolling stone

Now I just carry it alone

There's a highway risin' from my dreams

Deep in the heart I know it gleams

For I have seen it stretching wide

Clear across to the other side

Beyond the river and the flood

And the valley where for so long I've stood

With the rock of ages in my bones

Someday I know it will lead me home. oh, oh, oh...
Killer (song)

"**Killer**" (not to be confused with the EP of the same name or other dismabiguous terms) is a song by Phoebe Bridgers. It was released on April 10, 2015 through Pax-Am Records.

## Background

The song was released on April 10, 2015 through Pax-Am Records as the lead single and title track of Bridgers' debut EP of the same name.

In 2017, the song was re-recorded for Phoebe Bridgers' debut album, Stranger in the Alps, where it was released through Dead Oceans. Parts of the song have also been re-visited for the song Killer + The Sound, a mashup of the song The Sound by Noah Gundersen and Killer.

## Lyrics

Sometimes I think I'm a killer

I scared you in your house

I even scared myself by talking

About Dahmer on your couch

But I can't sleep next to a body

Even harmless in death

Plus, I'm pretty sure I'd miss you

And faking sleep to count your breath

Can the killer in me

Tame the fire in you?

Or is there nothing left to do for us?

I am sick of the chase

But I'm hungry for blood

And there's nothing I can do

But when I'm sick and tired

And when my mind is barely there

When a machine keeps me alive

And I'm losing all my hair

I hope you kiss my rotten head

And pull the plug

Know that I've burned every playlist

And I've given all my love

Can the killer in me

Tame the fire in you?

I know there's something waiting for us

I am sick of the chase

But I'm stupid in love

And there's nothing I can do

And there's nothing I can do
District: Chaffburn Gardens

Chaffburn Gardens is the district in Racedis Towers that the party calls home. Currently, they reside in an abandoned tower - a sign of the decay of the Chaffburn Gardens district as a whole. To the west, Coup's Mill; to the south, the tavern; to the east, the Market Bridge between the two largest businesses in the District (an exotic goods merchant and a clothier); to the north, the gardens themselves, for which the district was named.

### The Gardens

The Gardens are the oldest and most worn-down fixture of the entire district. It is a maze of tangled vines and gnarled hedges, spreading across the top of an entire tower and spilling over its sides. It has many dark corners, serving anyone from young loves to sneakthieves, and rumor-mongers best of all. Many choose to detour through towers to the south rather than pass through the Gardens.
Halflands

The shifting space on the outskirts of the Kingdom of Death, beyond the Black Gates. They shift constantly, and only Endor knows the true way to navigate them.

## Origins

The Halflands were discovered - possibly even created - by Endor. In her travels around the Kingdom of Death, during her many attempts to infiltrate the Kingdom and rejoin her love, she found that she could travel these unformed lands and became a ranger of wastes.
