the drain

i'm having dreams again
where i'm being sucked into the drain
i'm up and then i'm down
don't think i've ever felt so strange
and you've been losing sleep
and its because of me
give me your weight and i will carry it
but stay on land you know that i can't swim
i see you reaching for the deep end
and i'm afraid to go in over my head
well i'm trying my best
don't think i'll ever get it right
i'm getting tired of this
but i won't go down without a fight
if my feet can't reach the ground
then i am sure to drown
give me your weight and i will carry it
but stay on land you know that i can't swim
i see you reaching for the deep end
and i'm afraid to go in over my head
but when it came the time to jump in
i held my breath and counted to ten
suddenly unafraid i let
my body fall into the depths
when my feet can't reach the ground
i'll be brave and you'll be proud

blame it on being young and dumb
wanting so badly just to love someone
poured it out and you drank it all
you grew big and i grew small
you're eating well with a silver spoon
and you'll bite the hand that has been feeding you
use me up and suck me dry
mine is yours, yours is not mine
now i wish that i never knew you, i never knew you
i wish that i never knew you, i never knew you
i wish that i never knew you, i never knew you
now i wish that i never knew you, i never knew you
a sunk cost that i'm too scared to leave behind
gave you everything i've got and then i lost my mind
begging you, "please don't go"
running barefoot in the snow
now i wish that i never knew you, i never knew you
i wish that i never knew you, i never knew you
i with that i never met you 'cause i'd never want to
i wish that i never knew you, i never knew you, i never knew you
how'd i end up begging you not to go?
how'd i end up barefoot in the fucking snow?

what a mess
03:33
|

|
spending too much time alone again
conversations that i have in my head
took the scissors to my hair again
another form of self-destruction
what a mess i made of it
what a mess i made of it
what a mess i made of it
what a mess i've made
i've been lying to myself again
keeping secrets in my heart from my head
and when you call me out
i will take you down
what a mess i made of this
what a mess i made of this
what a mess i made of this
what a mess i've made

all this time
04:25
|

|
on empty pages
i'm writing the words but don't know what they mean
and it's contagious
new normals passed to me just like a disease
do i scare you?
when you look my way, what is it you see?
uncover my truth
to find that you were only ever looking for me
and all this time i thought that you
were trying to change me
you were trying to strip away
the parts you knew
were never me at all

the fuzz

the sky was big and it was dark
a picnic table in the yard
i still remember how it felt
when the sky came crashing down
vision blurry, short of breath
a dizzy head, a sort of death
need to leave, need to get away
alone i climbed the fire escape
lay myself down on the steel
just to see if i could feel
it's too little, it's too late
everything started to fade
in the fuzz
in the fuzz
in the fuzz
in the fuzz
the sky was big and it was dark
a picnic table in the park
we talked late into the night
and for a moment i felt alright
but i couldn't sort my thoughts
you could see that i was lost
in the fuzz
in the fuzz
in the fuzz
in the fuzz

kensington market
it was new years eve
i was thinking of you
were you thinking of me?
a few blocks away
you were just down the street
i was thinking of you
were you thinking of me?
and then after midnight
in the windowless dark
i was falling asleep
you were breaking my heart

Alvvays has always been great, but with this album they took it to the next level. Every one of these songs is lodged in my brain now, permanently (in a good way).
