Recorded in the basement practice space at Holly & Kyle's house, Saint Paul MN on July 23, 2009
lyrics
It doesn't seem complete, the way you left it
And it still has a haunt on your mind
A thousand friends can say it's best when it ends
But that doesn't help you hold the line
She's always had a critique, even here
In the night when you're doing dreams
Well, that doesn't matter, her mouth doesn't flatter
And the shock of touching feels complete
She just wants you to kiss her
You just wanted to miss her
And now she wants you to miss her
She doesn't need you to kiss her anymore
This is a nightmare
This is a daydream
This is real life
Let it go
What you found in the night time crying out for help
Is still upstairs
These cats can take their toll on you,
Just ask your last great book of affairs
Well there's
Still this spare set of keys you could use
Or climb through the kitchen glass
It's just a good night's sleep away
Until you roll your hand down her pants
You just wanted to waste her
She just wants you to taste her
You only wanna deface her
And now you'll have to embrace her,
Well dream on
Catsitter's nightmare
When you're the last person anyone trusts
You're one favor away from a bad parade
And our patience is starting to rust to dust...
This is a nightmare
This is a daydream
This is real life
How can I let it go
Let it go
When I'm a catsitter's nightmare
Well, I'm the last ditch digging the dust
I'm a hopeless case with a head in space
And a girl that I fucked it up
This is a nightmare
This is a daydream
This is real life
I'm gonna let it go
Let it go

Getting to hear Emily Haines sing Anthems live is always a treasured memory. This has been my favourite record for 15 years and I can’t wait to see the Toronto anniversary show in December. Much love from a long time fan! devgen92
