lyrics

i changed my mind
about something
i racked my brain
i thought it thin

you said a discrepancy in style may account for a conflict between us
you said a discrepancy in style may account for conflict but...

…i was not
able to communicate
before
no, i was not
able to communicate
before

so i change my mind
you change yours too
now the future’s bright
horizon blue

you said a discrepancy in style may account for conflict between us
you said a discrepancy in style may account for conflict but...

…i was not
able to communicate
before
no, i was not
able to communicate
before

but i am now are you listening?

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop

I just started listening to this album today and am IN LOVE! Every track is perfect. I'm slightly sad I didn't start listening to boygenius until but happy to be a fan of their music <3 lissie_a
