CHIRP is independent, local radio powered by real DJs and real music fans. If you’re able, I’d love your help getting the rest of the way there.

Dovetail Joint, Level on the Inside, 1999

As your insides fall to pieces
Shattered by the silent treatment
Things are only fragile til they break
Feigning your humility
It only serves to weaken the
Most common observations that you make
Drown me out in conversation
Surf a wave of provocation
Wash away my interest in your wake
