a song perfectly fitting for this special day, dont you think?
i personally love valentines day, but i ALSO love sad and furious breakup songs. this isn't a breakup song, but it IS about unrequited love and also i mightve sprinkled a lil bit of murder at the end there. gotta stay on brand. AND these are probably some of my favorite lyrics off the whole thing :) i hope you like them too!!
get ready, cuz the album will be out in a freakin WEEK YALL (⁎′ꃪ‵)˞ᵋᵌ

lyrics
sip the saltwater off my eyelids
i need a reason to sleep in
are we going to the mall
or a chapel down the hall
to get married?
i saw her in the bathtub making new friends
man i hope my legs are more flexible that that
you ask me for advice but i think you should think twice
about what you're sayin to me
is it enough to be unwanted?
i held saturn in my hands and
felt the waves come crashing down and
i went under
i went under
hey young man i knew you when you had a house off ferry way and we held hands across the yellow tape and when the day came we clutched onto the one piece of each other we could see i felt you frown under the lost and found we watched the whales drown you held my hair back over mt vesuvius i watched your eyelashes turn to dust not the only part of you i couldn’t touch, couldn't have...
done it.
