Tonight I let myself cry I wish I could know why Now I sit chest is shaken It is starting again Fuck it, you're gonna make me say it You broke my heart and I'll never be the same it Hurts like fuck and, you ruined everything Single tear Single tear Single tear Must be nice I need to find a finish line I need eternal quiet time Must be nice for you to pass it by Drop in for a moment, but not even know it I let the loss live I don't think it's ever stopping You just gotta let the loss live Integrate it Better to hate you Than to miss you Better to forget you Than forgive you I thought I loved you But I lived you You were the goggles that I saw through Now I live far off I get sentimental but it's not much Tonight I walked past our old date spot And what you used to call "the rat block" I'm a believer 'cause my bikes got pegs and streamers I learned from the best to use spit and shine it on my chest Am I allowed to be high all weekend if I wasn't the day before? I am me I was then also me way back when Am I allowed to be high all weekend if I wasn't the day before? I am me I was then Also me Way back when

about

Clean Weird Prone (Inner World Peace Deluxe) is an expanded edition of the band's critically acclaimed 2022 album, Inner World Peace.

Clean Weird Prone includes the original 15-track Inner World Peace tracklist, along with unreleased tracks, demos, and alternate versions of the album’s songs. Frankie Cosmos’s mastermind, Greta Kline, shares about this release:

Maybe it’s ego, maybe it’s an obsession with archiving, maybe it’s just for fun. But I have always had a bit of a focus on preserving the first way the song went. It’s hard for me to let go of my demos. These are some of the many seeds of the album. I wanted to share a sampling (I have about 5 times as much material) because Inner World Peace was a drawn-out and unique album process.

Since forming the band, I have always had tours breaking up writing and arranging time…until 2020. This was also the first album since Zentropy that I wrote without any release plan or hopes to tour. I think that freeness can be felt in the album and the demos.

My demo-ing process is extremely stripped down, and until 2020 I recorded my vocals straight into my computer mic or my earbud mic (track 5, “hey whatsup” is from that era). I can still carry my whole recording setup (sans instruments) in a tote bag. When I think about these recordings, I can physically place myself in a lot of them. Beds, floors, sometimes desks or tables. The internal and personal moment with the core of the song before it gets shared with bandmates* and producers and expanded into the butterfly. These are my cocoons!

*Actually, there are two of these that were made by bandmate Alex Bailey based on my first demo. By "shared with bandmates" I mean "brought into practice and worked on the arrangement together"!
