Robert Inhuman, about "Prove Me Wrong"
This is definitely too much of a juvenile "fuck you" with little explanation to accompany it, but nevertheless it is my informal resignation letter to the noise scene a couple years ago. I had tried to be involved in an organization of artists somewhat older than myself, representing a minority interest in experimental music in the city I grew up in. I became frustrated with the noise scene's seemingly intentional alienation of the public, combined with their complaints that this same public wouldn't give their artistic interests a chance. It seemed self-defeating and a really pathetic dead end. It was something that fronted as an alternative communication, but seemed to intentionally fail at communicating on almost every level, even through things as basic as offering a welcoming atmosphere and tone of voice towards new faces at shows. The thing that compounded my inability to stay aligned with this organization was that the older members assumed that my aims were the same as their own, and that they were similar to me when they were younger. But I disagreed, because I was not interested in being involved in Anti-art just as an excuse to say that I'm misunderstood, or an excuse to be angry at a world that has different values than me. I don't want to conform to a majority aesthetic or value system, but I want to represent a minority with a good attitude, not some hidden "I used to get bullied at school" agenda, and not destroy the few communicative devices that seem to actually work within an underground scene. So, if you see what I'm saying, this is not about discrediting noise music or the communities that keep it going, it's honestly about refusing to accept the identity of a vengeful passive-aggressive nerd.
lyrics
(talking about that automatic ACCIDENTAL NIHILISM...)
no shit-talking! no condescending! don't talk down to me!
I was never like you! you weren't like me!
we're nothing like you - we don't want the shit you want or do - no misrepresentation
envious and boring fuckers - envious and boring
I was never like you - you weren’t like me
glory - aimless glory for what - fuck you - count me out
what do you believe in - you don't have shit to show
what do you believe in - nothing - a default - a defense - lazy old fuckers
born brats, born fucking old - can't keep up so you gotta talk shit
fuck you - I quit - I can move on - can you?
what else do you have - nothing - a default - a defense - absolutely nothing
you can't keep up - you're dead to me - rotting in the dullest shit in Cincinnati!!!
hobbies can fucking suck it and sound for sound's sake fucking sucks too
don't you waste my time - tell me tell me tell me what - all you say or do is shit!
why are you here in my fucking face - careful to keep every word you say vague
you're scared I'll find out you're still figuring shit out
who the fuck isn't if they ain't it's a lie yeah - all you say or do is shit!
and expect me to automatically put up with it
tell me tell me tell me what you're doing to lift a single life up
vague - scared - desperate - I won't stand by this!
