lyrics

if i say it’s going to be alright
it is
i know it
i’m gonna put down my head
but it won’t be forever

i’m signing over my hand
just to take it back
cause there really is no part of me you want to own

why me, why me, why me?
watch me sit right back
stay here
just staring at the window
no i won’t go
this is what i said

is there a way to care from away
cause if i
stay
stay right here
staring at the window
i’ll never know

i’m signing over my head
you should see me now
moving in that fast car down the road

i’ve got a single,
white
hair
from my head into your mouth
it grows irresponsible and it grows long
sometimes I can hardly feel myself moving around
fumbling towards something that’s new ground

why me, why me, why me? now i sit right back
watching the ways it all can crumble
and i’m counting change with a hand annulled

i’ve gotten old trying to push out all the habits
i’ve grown into something i don’t even know so

this is what i said
this is what i said

i study love like its a motion that’s meant to be filled
i study you and i see so many choices
that i need to find my own permissions
i study love like it’s impossible not to
like it’s a pocket i can put my palm into
and i look at you like you’re someone that’s meant to move me

this is what i said
this is what i said

Got to see yeule live for the first time this album cycle and it was soooooo dreamy. This album is just blissful 🩵 it's been so cool to see yeule evolve as an artist over the past few years/albums and consistently push their sound to new incredible places big suit david byrne
