believe it or not, I'm kinda glad you didn't disappear off the face of the earth. A little variety is nice, even when it's cliché. A good song is often based more on it's context than it's actual asthetic.

Like, have you ever heard the rumor that you can drop cash on the street in Tokyo and the people are so honest that someone will find it, pick it up, and take it to the cops? Well, that's absolutely 100% not true, because I once found a plain envelope on the ground with "6,000 yen" written on it. Inside was 6,000 yen. I put it in my pocket and kept walking.
