Compact Disc (CD) + Digital AlbumGenuine New Old Stock. These discs were pressed during 1999-2000 and assembled a few at a time in bedrooms, basements, bars, and backseats of vans. There are plenty of them left. If you want a hard copy of this record, this is all we can offer—no vinyl or cassette in the foreseeable future. Anyway, Chris will be happy to get some of these out of his fucking house, and just as with downloads, we're donating 100% of any money from these to the Midwest Music Foundation. So order away. Note: includes different cover art than current download version.

lyrics
Don't want to talk about it. They can find out from somebody else how much fun it is to break down. Better off without it. Blue-smoke smiles and stereo dials that never turn up past the sound of drunk hearts and mouths who shouldn't have to know how to say, “Sorry you're feeling that way.” I know tonight I'm better off alone. I'm not all right and I'm better off alone.
Don't want to lie about it. When the loud conversations can stop, the silence is its own reward. Someone else can shout it. I'll be home turning over a record I know I can trust. Because, anymore, a party is nothing but spent youths and half-truths all round. Call me tomorrow and tell me that party burned down.
Sometimes foolish is as foolish tells. Sometimes I just need to keep myself to myself. Call me tomorrow and say how that party turned out. I won't be there. I'll be all right, but I'm better off alone. When foolish yells, I will keep myself to myself. I will be better alone.
