about

Stephanie MacIntire's full-length solo debut asks the question: what's a punk girl to do in these trying times? The answer: MAKE SOME NOISE. The guitarist and composer, known for her stint in Nervous Pudding and her contribution to the UNDERTALE soundtrack, performs every instrument and voice on this ten-track LP.

lyrics

Every day, from every corner
It seems like there's brand new reasons to mourn, ah
A human rights abuse encyclopedia
Dispatched through news and print and social media
And sometimes your anger gives way to exhaustion
Overstimulated by the shit that you're watching
And I guess I never felt that life would be painless
But it's hard to keep fighting when nothing ever changes
I'm so tired
I'm so tired
I've got to take a moment to breathe

The revolution never sleeps
But sometimes I've got to
Ain't no crime to put up your feet
I'm just feeling beat
Life's a lotta stress to go through
I'm afraid that I'll overheat
I've just gotta rest; I hope that I'm not going soft
So tell the revolution that I'm taking a day off

It's a long, long game as a protest musician
We won't get our rights until we force them to listen
I promise tomorrow I'll come back from the quiet
Pick up my sign and rejoin the riot
I'm so tired
I'm so tired
I've got to take a moment to breathe

The revolution never sleeps
But sometimes I've got to
Ain't no crime to put up your feet
I'm just feeling beat
Life's a lotta stress to go through
I'm afraid that I'll overheat
I'm aching and I burned my hand on a molotov
So tell the revolution that I'm taking a day off

I'm gonna take a day
To catch up on my sleep
Vegetate a little bit
Make something to eat
I'm gonna take a day
To not think about how much I hurt
