lyrics

You don't want to know
Me until alone
You're a meteor I can't outgrow.

That's why there's ice in the tray
And cologne to spray
A few records to play
And a bed to unmake.

But for every loaded grin
And every trembling chin
There's a clarity that seeps in through my skin.

That's why the mornings are strange
And I take no time getting changed
I've been avoiding my new brain.

These bullets in the sky
Have never almost died
And they don't know there's more to life than this

So don't love the one you kiss,
Kiss the one you love
Because a meteor could end up on your lips.

That's why there's ice in the tray
And cologne to spray
A few records to play
And a bed to unmake.

And now the mornings aren't strange
And I take my time getting changed
I'm making peace with my new brain.

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
