This line – Perhaps you’d feel more comfortable in an office/ With cooler carpet and slower pop woke me up one night. I was sure I had subconsciously stolen it from a song. A throwaway line from Will Oldham. I know, I flatter myself. But I asked around and it seemed to be all mine. At the time, I was in the middle of a late 90s Hotmail romance. It started with makeoutclub, moved to mailed mixtapes, and at some point this line ended in a song we wrote together. With motives unclear, we eventually faded into ambiguity and then silence.
