lyrics

Don't fight back, don't look at me like that
Don't forget I'll never quite forgive you
But I'll pretend to
Don't fight fair, and don't you cut your hair
Don't you make the same mistakes your father did
You are not him

Well it's always back to you again
Always back to you, my friend
You keep me on the run
Never learned to lose a fight, never learned to grow up right
This is who we are
How will I release you now?
How can I forgive myself when I'm still in love with you?
And it's always back to you again
Always back to you, my friend
You keep me on the run

Well baby, you're so famous but you sold out your soul
You went and let it all go on a melody
Some kind of tragedy
So quit your job, come sleep in my bed
We'll get by on our roses and our elegies
Things we could never see

Well it's always back to you again
Always back to you, my friend
You keep me on the run
Never learned to lose a fight, never learned to grow up right
This is who we are
How will I release you now?
How can I forgive myself when I'm still in love with you?
And it's always back to you again
Always back to you, my friend
You keep me on the run
Always back to you again
Always back to you, my friend
Now look at what we've done

His Young Heart EP
by Daughter

This is the first album I found that really spoke to me as a young fem. From the simplicity, the bass drum, specifically in landfill is so steady and soothing. I love landfill because it perfectly portrays trauma bonds, sexual or romantic relationships rooted in power imbalance. Being led on, unrequited love, constantly being clueless if someone is a real friend, or a lover. Are they yours or are they ruthlessly rogue. Untameable. Love and hate are such similar feelings, and they often mingle. clementinehatepageichangedmymind
