QUICK ONE ! trying to write ideas fast and not question them too much


lyrics:

Are you ever

A little scared

By all the things you want

That you might not get?


Do you ever

Try forget

Why you moved here in the first place


I think I’m losing track of all the things that made me me

When I was younger

So full of hope so full of wonder !

cradle me, watch tv

Reality is good and I feel stronger

it’s not so bad here anymore


I made dinner

It’s your favourite

One whole decade

chasing all the what to say and what to do

Only to stop and find it all

in an idiot like you

Cheers orla, another one to cry over 😵‍💫

Georgia Woods

Chasing all the what to say and what to do only to stop and find it all in an idiot like you HAS BONESSSS that’s a good lyric

Mina Jørgensborg ♪

orla 😭😭😭 i am SOBBING 😭😭😭 «I think I’m losing track of all the things that made me me»😭😭😭 literally ME!!!!

Orla Draper

Another one to add to the sad song list

Lina

Ooh I love the guitar! …and also the „fuck, I fucked the last bit up“ 😄 it needs to stay!!

Thomas Peeters

This has everything! I love how the ‘you’ shifts from a general one (deceptive! ‘oh another existential drama’) into a real one (wholesome idiot). Love it! Hope this song will evolve and return! 🥰

Becky Karush

I love love luurrrrrvvvv those chunky chords moving up and down in the last part. Holy moly are those SATISFYING and SOLID but also so rich they’re mysterious & alluring. My fave lyric is “cradle me, watch tv”—those are so humble and physical and connected to an external world that’s a match for (complement to?) the moody swirling inner world. And maybe all songs by everyone past and present should have drones????

Darren Hill

Awwk sure it's like the easter bunnies come early and laid a musical egg for us to marvel upon

Darren Hill

Also "fuck I fucked the last bit up" is such a great way to end a song I love it

Malcolm

not often you get ‘fucked up lyrics” at the end 😂🤘🎸

Tsuki Smith

Adoore this and seconding that I love the FUCK at the end lol v relatable in an already super relatable clip (big move for me and feeling a lil lost n lonely) big dig

Wouter Weggelaar

Love the direct lyrics in this one! Not too metaphorically but just in your face honesty. Digging that!

kate

The chord progression is so fun. Very clunky but in a good way (I feel like that word is only used in negative light. I think it can be good sometimes).

Gareth Hughes

Wow. Has it been a whole ten years already? Some beautiful plinking in there! ❤️

Chris Stephenson

I love songs that only include the title in the very last line. And the OG directness. Lovely

Emmy Noether

I adore the intro with the synth and the guitar picking pattern and chords. It's so beautiful.

Emmy Noether

The first verse also hits home - being scared of not getting what I want often keeps me from acknowledging or even feeling that I want something because I can be so pessimistic with things.

write ideas fast and not question them too much! (i've been doing the same with art lately, fast sketches without questioning them too much — isn't it so freeing to work this way every once in a while?)
