about
The first song I wrote in 2021 that I really loved.
lyrics
VERSE 1:You came to find me, lover boy. You came as quick as wind just to say you needed room again. Oh, I don't feel the same. Pass the gates to the garden of roses where you know I belong. I can take you to my bed again. A touch that can't prolong.
BRIDGE: And you know I welcome death again, I embrace it with both arms. And you know I wanted love again, but you know I will cause harm.
CHORUS: Oh no I won't waste you anymore. A struggling machine. Just to say you wanted love again, but I don't feel the same. Oh no I won't waste you anymore, the struggling machine. Just to say you wanted love again, Oh no i don't feel the same.
VERSE 2: I remember what they said to me, the meanest things they knew. Wasn't hard to get the best of me, wasn't hard at all to do. Like a baby in a mother's arms, a fragile thing like me. I'm a misery and loving harm. Whatever I can be.

Fun, bright post-punk that emulates the bands I grew up with so well that I honestly had to check and make sure the album wasn't a re-release from 1984. So glad this came up in my recommended feed. modestwriggles
