Lyrics:
We used to get high together, instead of getting high alone.
I can't remember the last time I saw you.
I can't remember the last time we talked.
You left home for a fresh start,
Working as a waitress down in Bradenton.
With my name tattoo'd into your skin.
Because of the shame I associate with vulnerability
I am numbing myself completely.
Can you hear me right now?
I watched your mother bury you today, with tears in her eyes.
It wasn't her words that shook me, it was the resemblance you shared.
Don't it feel so detached and unreal? Don't it seem so far away?
Like the past never happened, or like nothings ever changed.
With your casket open in front of me,
Your eyes closed and your lips silent.
With my name tattoo'd into your skin.
Because of the shame I associate with vulnerability
I am numbing myself completely.
Can you hear me right now?
I watched your mother bury you today, with tears in her eyes.
It wasn't her words that shook me, it was the resemblance you shared.
I didn't listen to the preacher.
I couldn't look your husband in the eyes.
I'm not sure what I meant to you then,
So I'm not sure what I owe you now.
But if something I said hurt you
I swear it was not my intention.
With your name tattoo'd into my skin.
Because of the shame I associate with vulnerability
I am numbing myself completely.
Can you hear me right now?
I watched your mother bury you today, with tears in her eyes.
It wasn't her words that shook me, it was the resemblance you shared.
Against Me! is an American punk rock band formed in 1997 in Gainesville, Florida, by singer and guitarist Laura Jane Grace. Since 2001, the band's lineup has also included guitarist James Bowman. After releasing three studio albums through independent record labels, Against Me! moved to Sire Records for 2007's New Wave, which reached no. 57 on the Billboard 200. In 2011, the band launched their own record label, Total Treble, through which to release future albums.

agree with this!!
this song is hard to play simply because of how tough it to get the words out without feeling that huge ball in your throat that makes you sad...

Blessed with the ability to play the instrument a bit after years of hammering away. That ball makes me " shut up and play." Secretly.. I try alone finding harmony with voice and chords. I entertain myself. Jenn entertains many. Play and sing sweet girl!🎵🎶🎸

Laura wrote some of the most profound lyrics I've ever heard
I love that she covered this song… been keeping a eye on her for over a decade. Always impressed
I watched Laura sing this one about 20 times in a barn here on KZread, now this one. Nice job!
Your covers never get old. 7 years since I watch the first one. And hopefully another 70 to go. Amazing.
You keep me alive Jenn . Your music is so good . Been watching for years . Don’t ever quit .. you were Made for this shit !
Caraca, depois de sumir por mais de um ano, Jenn está lançando uma música nova por semana! Wow, welcome back Jenn!! Nice cover again!
i hope 50 years later i can still see uploads on your channel)

I hope a live radio channel will emerge from all other radio channels... Jenn's radio! Haha who wants this too?
Thanks, Jenn. This is such a deep song, I'll never forget seeing Against Me! play it live. Long live Laura Jane Grace!
This came out almost one day after my friend passed away. I can't stop listening to this song on days I think about him. Grief is the worst. Thank you Jenn
i keep bopping between this one and the one of them playing in that old garage.
Beautiful job. Absolutely love this song.
Look who's back! o/. I love your offspring covers Jenn. Hope you'll keep posting new ones :p
Amazing. This one still bangs
Because of the shame I'm numbing myself completely
Christ. This song is like a little of everyone I've ever lost, somehow. 😕 Tom Gabel was a huge inspiration to me long ago, and Laura Jane still is. Thanks. Great work.

It’s cool you’re still a supporter of hers but I feel compelled to mention it is entirely unnecessary to name her by her former name. Agreed she was amazing before and now, and this cover rips!

@@rainemara1755 I don't need your validation that "it's cool", nor do I need you to give me your opinion on my (very supportive) comment. A boy named Tom Gabel was born, grew up, and existed. I saw him often in clubs and in concerts, even spoke with him once. Now, she's Laura Jane Grace, and I've loudly supported her actions. Mind your own fucking business.
What a voice!!
Glad to see you uploading again. Have enjoyed your stuff for a long time. Great cover.
One of my favorites! Thanks for posting
Wow. Just wow. Amazing.
Amazing!!!
Shit yes, love your covers.
What a sad, great song. You song it amazingly
This song has always meant a lot to me. You nailed it! Fantastic job!
I’m loving these “new” covers!!! Please keep them coming!! So talented! 😊
one of my favourite songs, thank you!
This is fantastic.
Oh god I never noticed the lyrics when Laura Jane sang it, but now I did and now I'm crying... really beautiful
My favorite Against Me song!!! I loved this!
Oh man loved this.
The sound JUMPS out of your guitar! Your voice is powerful and melodic! Thank you! Putting new strings on my acoustic tonight

I love this song. Thanks for doing such an awesome cover!
Excellent! From my first Against Me! album. After this, they became my all-time favorite band. Can't wait for the live shows to start up again! Need to get out and dance!
I love your voice. Thank you again for continuing. Most people quit but you've been doing this for a long time. Your hair is greying, but your beauty still remains.
Such a fun song to play ❤❤❤
You always post the best stuff. We appreciate the hard work!
I love that thing she does when she's listening to the fade. For the most part it is the authenticity that I listen for. It's like your listening to raw effort. I also like J.R.Byrd. His song Robot Monkey with Bob Peterno is a favourite of mine.
I love it.
This is one my favorite songs. You play it beautifully 🎶
Amazingly done and wonderful song choice
We need you now more than ever ❤ thank you for coming back. Looking forward to any new videos you have planned. Always love your punk and ska covers.
I’m glad you’re back! You were missed and this cover is killer. 🖤 🔥
