lyrics

Your lows were low - I was familiar
Bulgarian choirs in your head
The clouds were black but not forever
You'll wake up better like I said

Remember how it was when we first met
It was impossible to know what you were thinking.
Every other girl  -  afraid of the world
Second guessing every movement that they're making.

You’re not the type to go looking for flaws
You don’t have to skewer somebody’s fashion
Competitive cats can fight cats
While you’re in a deep conversation
     
If this is love
It’s enough.

Turns out the voice making words in your skull
isn’t judging anything but danger
I passed the test even though I suppose
black metal was our first conversation

Glowing and calm but not safe at all
As you’re throwing a phone out the window
Hold my calls I’m in no mood to talk
Do you know if this room’s under Orenda?

Young and realistic till you gave that up
You know tons who recommend it but they don’t get out.
When life is in the can, it’s work and it’s hellish
Queens of the class get free rides to heaven
But not in this life.

If this is love
It’s enough.
