The ice age is coming. Better get a sweater or something. I don't think the mammals are going to make it this time. Better get a prescription, so when you're frozen you can still be smiling. You can't outrun the tundra. So you might as well go under.

    THIS IS NOT TUNDRA... its the lyrics to internet relay chat with the central intelligence agencyi. damnet! anyway the actual song these lyrics are from is fucking amazing. The lyrics and roby's singing is perfect. I dunno i guess the song is about everything else milemark is talking about. That 'tech' is gonna outrun us someday. Its very sarcastic 'better get a sweater or something', 'better get a prescription, so when you're frozen you can still be smiling' great job milemarker!

    THIS IS TUNDRA!!!. if you downloaded it they got the track order wrong. i bought the LP and these are the right lyrics. if you follow the downloaded order "cryogenic sleep" has the music from sex jam 2. so i guess the part in the song where it says "you can't outrun the tundra" isn't a giveaway?. don't trust what you download

Another Love

I think the meaning is pretty clear. This person got really burned in a previous relationship, and because of this is unable to love and show care in his present one, even though he so badly wants to. It's lovely song, and very sad. You can really feel how defeated and frustrated he is with himself.

I believe this is another amazingly on point and nuanced commentary on the insanity that follows emotionally abusive relationships. The abuser has no anxieties, no emotional pain, or salience/memory for that matter, so the survivor appears to be the crazy one, obsessed with the abuse and that buzzword that seems to ignite arguments about diagnosing people without a degree, etc. funny how you say the words domestic violence, abuse, abuse survivor and boom the subject changes. Anyways, I especially relate to her midnights becoming afternoons, complex PTSD often leads to this phenomenon, whether due to purposeful sleep deprivation by the abuser, or just hyper vigilance associated with the PTSD, along with the fear of facing people, especially your loved ones, who Never actually understand, even if they try, because all they see is you, on fire, screaming about the arsonist that no one ever sees, and who has been spreading lies about your alleged mental instability, deceptive personality, etc. the whole time. While the last thing survivors need is more blame, our society supports a narrative that blames the objectively innocent party because the blatantly guilty party has spent their entire lives fabricating a persona and we’re just being human, and human psychology is quite counterintuitive especially in the context of trauma. Look at Amber Heard. Vilified and not believed, regardless of what any abuse survivor could recognize as a fellow survivor instantly. But Johnny depp is a malignant narcissist, a man, and wealthy as all get out. It’s sick.

Moyet later described how her song "Goodbye 70's" had been inspired by her disillusionment with how the late-1970s punk scene had turned out, saying, "'Goodbye 70's' is about punk and not caring how you were dressed, and then I discovered that so many of my friends that I'd thought it all really meant something to just saw it as another trend... That's what 'Goodbye 70's' was all about, about how sour the whole thing became."
