lyrics

We woke up with our clothes off, staring at the ceiling.
Your face was so soft and everything just felt right.
I wanted to close my eyes and always be there.
But you knew if I opened them again then you'd be gone.

Still trying to get over that, that you knew you weren't real.
You even kissed me goodbye, still kinda trying to over that.

But god you're so real to me we could've been anything, we could've been everything but I had to wake up.
I could've swallowed my tongue, Could've died that night.
And never left you, I wish I still knew you.
Cause Now I'm here staring at the ceiling.
My ceiling fan ticks and tocks and clicks and cracks around.

And you were perfect, but I never really knew.
One day i'll close my eyes, and you'll be there again.

Tomorrow Is Nearly Yesterday And Everyday Is Stupid

This was an album that was consistently on repeat for me when I lived in a place, that I didn't belong in. It was also instrumental along with all of Jame's other albums to help me learn how to play. Lovechild of Melancholy

Mel's music takes on hardship and doubt from a perspective of unwavering self-love and affirmation. she writes to a particular queer experience, and in doing so evokes feelings of otherness, change, and hope that resonate in much wider ways. these are three of my favorites ordinarymothman
