Turns out the car was junk, but I had no choice but to drive it home to Winnipeg. It took 3 days. I was driving through the mountains, and the headlights were so dim, and for a stretch there was nowhere to turn off. It felt like a weird, horrific video game — navigating the road and dodging danger and trying not to die. I also felt so deeply betrayed by all the men involved in the whole thing.\n\nThese men feel like a series of characters now. I felt so powerless in this weird system that prioritizes men and their opinions. In this song, I was able to imagine an alternate reality where I’m a vengeful spectator in these men’s lives.\"\n\nhttps://livinghourband.bandcamp.com/track/wheel-2\nhttps://www.livinghourband.com/shows","location":1,"location_name":"Default","play_type":"trackplay"}
