About This Track
'Might' by Modest Mouse is an alternative track from 'This Is a Long Drive for Someone With Nothing to Think About' (1996). The lyrics set up a repeated, conditional back-and-forth, where both sides consider the possibility, only for it to collapse into refusal. There is also a grim, self-incriminating streak, with the singer describing severe injury to the jaw as something definitive and final. The mood is restless and combative, all urgency and regret, orbiting the refrain-like uncertainty of “I might and you might”.
"Might" is a track by Modest Mouse, from the album This Is a Long Drive for Someone With Nothing to Think About, released 15th April 1996. The track is 1:31 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 2 articles about Modest Mouse.

Lyrics
I might and you might But neither of us do, though And neither of us will I broke every bone in my goddamn jaw That's a lot it's the last one I ever got I might and you might But neither of us do, though And neither of us will Yesterday night I broke every bone in my jaw Thought so hard, it's the last thing I ever thought
