Biography

A solo moniker for Philadelphia musician Michelle Zauner, Japanese Breakfast began as a monthlong, song-a-day writing challenge during a break from her indie rock band Little Big League. That resulted in 2013's June, an intimate set of melodic, electric guitar-accompanied lo-fi tunes issued on cassette by Ranch Records. She continued to write solo and with her band, with Japanese Breakfast's self-released Where Is My Great Big Feeling? and the Seagreen Records cassette American Sound both following in the summer of 2014 before Little Big League's Tropical Jinx arrived that October. With a varied palette including markedly bigger, synth-boosted sounds that bridged lo-fi and indie pop, Japanese Breakfast's Yellow K Records debut, Psychopomp, was released in the spring of 2016.

LYRICS

Got lost on the way
Took a route I didn’t mean to follow down
And I was tempted, sure, but I have come home now
Remember the day
You picked me up, you had me screaming, showing off
With all those lighter tricks I once was so fond of

And who am I to leave behind
We built this
And even when it falls apart it’s ours
But who could say that I’m to blame
For wandering
I never knew I’d find my way into the arms
Of men at bars

Got back in the ring
I took a spill, I spent a while just tumbling down
I found my head again and took to a new town

Remember thе day
I picked you up, flicked on my torch and you hid it well
Thе humiliation tactics you’d become known for

Said who am I to leave behind
We built this
And even when it breaks apart it’s ours
But who could say that I’m to blame
For wondering
I never knew I’d wind up here, to take up arms
At men at bars
