I’m trying so hard
Harder than most around me I try to let go
Cause to fit in a mold could kill me
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
I’m a’ wishing I was home
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
I’d be better on my own
Walk in to the party
Chills in my blood
I don’t wanna small talk
Feels like cheap love
Everyone around me faking a vibe
Wanna cut the bullshit
Sever the ties
You pull at my strings
You’re making me dance around you
The praise that you sing -ahh
It’s a beautiful thing, but its not true
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
I’m a’ wishing I was home La-la-la-la-la-la-la
I’d be better on my own
Walk in to the party
Chills in my blood
I don’t wanna small talk
Feels like cheap love
Everyone around me faking a vibe
Wanna cut the bullshit
Sever the ties

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
