Future as Bright as Halogen

They think the future's bright as halogen,
We know it's pretty bleak.

I taught myself the only way to vaguely get along in love
Is to like the other slightly less than you get in return
I keep feeling like I'm being undercut.

I cannot emphasise enough that my body
Is a badly designed, poorly put together vessel,
Harboring these diminishing, so-called 'vital organs'
Hope my heart goes first.

We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed - Los Campesinos!


Macy Atkins never liked complicated, but when you boyfriend is a younger version of Bear Grylls that's what you get. She needs change. That's when a 6ft4 vegetarian from Montevideo, Uruguay/New Jersey who is in a pop punk/electronic/synth sound/alternative dance/synthpop band bombshells into her life.
