Cover art for Not Nice lyrics by Chris Garneau

This song makes me cry. It's so beautiful, and it reallllllllly hits home with me.

I feel it's a story about either Chris's friend or lover having problems with addiction. The person becomes hostile when confronted, and is growing farther and farther away from Chris. Chris doesn't know what else to do, and doesn't want to be hurt by this person's angry defensive outbursts any longer, so despite the face that he fears the person won't get better, he leaves them alone. There's nothing else to do for them.
