I wish the light didn’t feel like a miracle
I guess I’ll write that down
and piss away the pages in another dark journal
Feeling like a cake in a urinal
It’s sad to think how long I’ve been Sad’n Low™
I’d love to swim inside some other song
but you sing what you know
Never asked the lifespan to grow
What if we all gave up at the same time
Every couple of months I have to remind you
that it’s me I don’t like
And it’s a blessing that hate doesn’t rhyme
It’s irresponsible to paint the walls with this energy
I should be singing about climate change or housing insecurity
Stuff is beautiful and some people are cool
But it never feels like I am feeling anything
I’m sorry to these chords and I’m sorry to you
Now imagine the compassion here that I could use
They say to be your biggest fan
But I would rather stand beneath the ladder
and let the phone ring
Than weaponize the mountain just to make you feel things
Why is it so hard to live when all I want to do is sing?

She's an amazing artist to share something like this in a way that makes you understand what it was like to live it. The album still breaks my heart but I love listening to it. Put your grown up ears on and empathize. naataq

Hearing this was like discovering Desire, or London Calling for the first time. Derivative yet original, the songs are immediate and the melodies will get stuck in your ear for days. tideracer
