Mathew Lee Cothran of Coma Cinema and Delaney Mills -- alongside a revolving cast of friends and collaborators -- have been taking the monoculture’s obsession with a dystopian world and turning it into their own wry joke in their homespun quarters of South Carolina from the very beginning. Since 2011, EPs and singles built with a bare necessity of instruments and production tools have recorded a memory box of self-healing guitar-pop laced with an Ambien trance. But with Cothran quitting his day job and resettling in Asheville, NC with Mills after the release of 2013’s Holo Pleasures to focus his efforts on their latest full-length on Run for Cover Records New Alhambra, an increased currency in time has resulted in Elvis Depressedly’s most definitive listen yet.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics "I don't want to get better, what's the use? I don't want to get better, just crazier with you" express a sentiment of surrendering to a depression or a negative state of mind, rather than trying to fight it or make it better. The repetition of the same lines emphasizes this feeling of hopelessness and resignation. The addition of "just crazier with you" suggests that the singer finds comfort in the idea of going through this state of mind with someone else, perhaps because it feels less lonely or scary. The line "what's the use?" also implies that the singer doesn't see any point in trying to improve their mental state, maybe because they feel stuck or because they have lost faith in the possibility of feeling better.

Overall, the lyrics convey a feeling of sadness, despair, and a reluctance to try to overcome difficult emotions. They are open to interpretation and can be read as a reflection of the artist's personal struggles or as a more general expression of the human condition.
