lyrics

oh you remind me of a man i knew, swept me off my feet talking just like you
lips pressed to my ear so i felt his breath
smelled so good, like certain death
he told me "you're nothing like all the other girls, you're nothing like all the other girls
wasting my time with those other girls
i like you, i think i want to get to know you"

and you already kind of do
yeah i'm the pebble in your shoe
the taxes you forgot were due
i'm a frankenstein of every girl you've already had
and you'll see me in the others when they start to go bad
we all live in the museum that's inside of your head
and we'll nag and we nag and we nag
and you know i'm right

well i was seventeen when he came sniffing around
and if anybody asked he'd probably play his age down
and he got so sweet when he was through being mean
when i look at you man god damn i feel the same thing
you're saying "you're nothing like all the other girls, you're nothing like all the other girls
wasting my time with those other girls
you're special, i think i want to get to know you"

and you already kind of do
yeah i'm the pebble in your shoe
the taxes you forgot were due
a recurring theme playing on repeat
an old song and a dance born of poor circumstance
and i nag and i nag and i nag and
you know i'm right

i was groomed i was trained i was used i was blamed
built me up tore me down screaming right in my face
i've been set up for you like my heart's been condemned
should i keep spilling my guts
are you still trying to get in them

you're nothing like all the other boys
you're nothing like all the other boys
wasting my time with those other boys
you're special, i think i want to get to know you

and i already kind of do
yeah you're the pebble in my shoe
a sequel i will suffer through
a recurring theme playing on repeat
an old song and a dance born of poor circumstance
and i nag and i nag and i nag and i know i’m right

about

Rachel Hirsh Chapel Hill, North Carolina

Rachel Hirsh’s I’ve Been Here This Whole Time is a study in observation.

The Chapel Hill- based singer-songwriter’s debut EP is 25 minutes of brutally honest examinations of the self and other people, all fed through the filter of driving, melodic alternative rock that calls to mind predecessors like Anna Waronker (that dog.) and Helium. ... more
