value even numbers on volume
exist in a vacuum
we are starting to lose energy
viewing moon in apogee
driving, hidden road reuniting
distance dividing
choosing our trajectory
mastering cartography
leave the map inside W tower
watercolor eye
a scaleless butterfly
are we just getting by
idly unsatisfied
craving transparency
but when you look at me
there’s just a cavity
frozen physicality
one finger to the sky
a bird of paradise
can never learn to fly
when did we stop feeling high
the earth is soil and sea
this weight is you and me
embracing gravity
regaining identity
cloudy basement and choking
when i’m alone smoking
in the woods my favorite spot looks south
tasting colors with my mouth
tongue tied, subjectivity exiled
pleasure in your life
you have been cutting your loss
i’m not the both of us
never thought the ending would empower
you’re a honeybee, i am a flower
watercolor eye
a drifting butterfly
becoming satisfied
separately identified
a sacred unity
a shifting reverie
evolving naturally
we belong to nobody
two fingers to the sky
a bird of paradise
can never learn to fly
growing roots is just as nice
the earth is soil and sea
this weight is you and me
embracing gravity
underneath the orange tree
What a great album. It took me a while to really get the whole album but I can confidently say it's one of her best. The shorter songs are certainly a different feel, but I still like it. I could pick like five different songs as my favorite and all of them would feel right lol praisedrays
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). s. moxley
