It’s been a while since she’s seen the ocean
It’s been a desert from day one
She’s landlocked in small talk
How could such a small town take so much?
When those early days were the darkest
She drove the coast
Playing mix-tapes that he made
As a parting gift of hope
(Bridge)
It wasn’t her and it wasn’t him
It wasn’t us
It wasn’t them
Sometimes timing just won’t let you win
Oh let me win
(Chorus)
Honey let’s take both our pasts
And drown them in a whiskey glass
Use our broken hearts for ice
And watch them melt in a sea of lies
We’ll make a toast and drink it down
Laugh until we hit the ground
We’re landlocked in small talk
Oh Let me win
The lyrics for “Let Me Win” originally appeared on the Butcher Bear album "This is How the Game gets you Played” under the song title
"Landlocked In Small Talk."
Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über.

What a great album. It took me a while to really get the whole album but I can confidently say it's one of her best. The shorter songs are certainly a different feel, but I still like it. I could pick like five different songs as my favorite and all of them would feel right lol praisedrays
