Drinking Song For The Socially Anxious - Tumblr Posts

I've been listening to the Ruin all day today, and I remembered on "Drinking song..." how it happened to me at work in winter…song.

We celebrated Christmas, corporate. Right in the office, there are a lot of people, loud music and at some point I got tired of the crowd, a sensory reboot and decided to hide somewhere. Only the kitchen was empty, so I literally sat on the floor and listened to the frige in the dark.

After a while, the door opened and a guy from another department came in, who just stood silently with me in the dark, apparently also trying to come to his senses and resting from the crowd. In general, we sat in the dark and silence listening only to the rumbling of the frige for ten minutes, until he suddenly gave out "And you play dnd, right?..".

For some reason it became so funny to me, but yes, we ended up sitting in silence and talking. Now we are quite friends and we are going to play DND in one party.

It's all so funny and surreal when a text that you truly love suddenly comes to life.

will there ever be another lyric as great as "cause if god made us all in his image then gods a fucking nerd" because i doubt there will

The ending chorus of Drinking Song for the Socially Anxious, where Joey sings "I'm not lonely/ if I'm with you" while Madeleine sings, "I'm not lonely/ I just like being on my own", which are beautiful lines in and if themselves, but because of the way the two parts combine I always hear, "I'm not lonely, I just like me if I'm with you." And that my not have been what they intended but by high heaven that's what my soul hears and it hurts.
