about

I wrote Monday Morning while walking to work before sunrise. Though in some ways it's a simple rant about going to work after the weekend, it’s truly about the struggle of trying to live authentically in a (neoliberal) capitalist world. I wanted it to feel heavy, sonically and lyrically. The last verse is a tiny battle cry within otherwise resigned lyrics: once we begin defining our worth outside of our work, outside of productivity, we open up a whole new world of possibilities. --MB

lyrics

Sunrise, sundown
Up and around and I gotta go
Sunrise, sundown again

Facedown, tapped out
Thank God for things I don’t gotta show
I’ve got it figured out

I’ve got these
Monday morning stratosphere blues
Spent Sunday waiting for these
Monday morning stratosphere blues
Spent Friday’s savings knowing
There’ll be stratosphere blues
Monday morning
Stratosphere blues

Bite down, don’t shout
Backhand the sound as it goes again
Hard wired to fight it out

What’s left to lose
Don’t hold your breath, what if I refuse
To explain my worth to you
