Tumbleweed Gothic from Attachment Panic by Bloodstar
This is a song about nostalgia and memory. The music is an homage to drag-his-ass 90s R&B and classic love-gone-wrong country. Regret, yearning and chords of anger are a musical backdrop to a story about relationship red flags only seen in retrospect.
"A conversation about an ill-fated relationship. When you set out trying out not to get hurt, you can never really fall in love. This is a song about the risk of not taking risks, and the pain of falling for emotionally guarded people."

Lyrics
"If you walk away
Boy you better run
It was dirty
It was boring
It was fun
If I got you to want me
You won’t ever forget me
And honey, that’s how I know I’m done
When we woke up
The days had turned to months
Inside jokes
And dates that ended drunk
I said I love you
You said I don’t know what that means
Should have looked around that corner
You were busted at the seams
I’m done I don’t know what it means
You’re busted at the seams
I’m done I don’t know what it means
Run from me
I’m done I don’t know what it means
Run from me
I’m done I don’t know what it means
We’re busted at the seams
"

The results are broody alt-country duets that explore desire, trauma, rebellion, and the mercurial intimacy between the three collaborators.
