Lyrics

I cut my hair short im on the motorbike of my dad we go 130 in the countryside I sing and no one hears it

I am a girl but im not im not a boy but i am x2

the city calls me it unravels as I speak I stumble home I kiss a stranger and then I.dream.i dream i dream

I dream of flowers and i lay there in a bed where roses bloom I walk in water get my clothes wet then i scream

chorus

I am everything

ooh these harmonies are so rad and dissonant, what a cool effect! I love your lyrics, they're both descriptive but vague enough that they leave much room for pondering. The bridge dreaming of flowers aligning back to something more major until the "scream" line is a great contrast. Loved listening to this!

This is beautiful! It has Suzanna Vega vibes. The lyrics are humorous and sound sad. A great juxtaposition. The guitar playing is spot on too. Really lovely song.

Wow! Loved this one! The layered vocals were magical.

Hey this is so beautiful, I'm transported right into a dream. I love the delicate way the vocals have been layered. And there's this eerie edge of dissonance

THIS IS GORGEOUS. (can you hear me screaming it?) I love this much - your restrained delivery gives the lyrics room to soar. You captured this desire to be all the things and none of the things so beautifully - the second verse "The city calls me/it unravels as I speak" hits especially hard. I also love the layered voices at the end. Do you know the song "Small Blue Thing" by Suzanne Vega - it's got a similar vibe (and it's one of my all time favorite songs).
