about

first track off upcoming LP entitled VIDEO NASTY

"this song comes from a deep place of medical anxiety, the feeling of your body containing things you don't understand and of which you live in fear. I like to think it's more defiant than just a total anxious drag. this one is in e minor."

lyrics

(you know what I love about mud? it's clean and it's dirty at the same time)

doctors ask if i'm doing this for fun
good news, I don't think anything is fun
you can check the fingerprints on the gun
you can even check the bullets in the gun

i've got nothing to hide
there is nothing inside
remember what it used to take to get high
I don't recognize that guy anymore

give me space, give me space, give me space
give me clarity
test my blood if you want but give it back to me
give it back to me
give all the blood you take back to me

closed my eyes, saw this guy in a mask
woke up, I was wearing the mask
but the guy, he was there, and he started to ask--
well if you don't wanna listen, then why even ask?

i've got better things to do
than to argue with you
like a child who's been told something untrue
you've poisoned what you grew in the dark

get a light, get a light, get a light
get away from me
test my blood if you want but give it back to me
give it back to me
give all the blood you take back to me
