about

i found out this year im demi-sexual and these lyrics to me are mostly just about coming to terms with yourself and not comparing your lived experience to other peoples.

i had an absolute blast making music w semi-cycle. heres to many more 🥂

lyrics

distracted
took maybe an hour to unpack it
convincing a towel its a jacket
i stumble around like its a habit
not Lavish

its tragic
im under the weather but im not sick
i get angry when i think about ur outfit
my envy contorted into madness
a sad wish

faintly sour til you call me back

inauthentic under each eye yawning
im afraid that they can smell it on me
sun in cheek i feel the spotlight falling
flare the enemy want u to want me

my clothes never seem to come off right
sticking to my arms and my thighs
i just wanted to feel id done it right
when all i needed was u holding me tight

im static
frozen fingers strike the matches
lighting up been stuck in traffic
intrusive thoughts i can imagine
crashing
yeah
im so tired of fighting it in my
sisyphus environment just
rolling up to let you down
i couldn’t hold on
(so i put my mask on)

inauthentically humming to this song
but every note that i sing seems to come out wrong
panicking, hate being alone
but when i followed them i wished id stayed at home
half an hour im crying on the phone
trying to accept what i have known
you remind me that it’s fine to take time to bloom
know i know but i hope i remember soon

inauthentic under each eye yawning
im afraid that they can smell it on me
sun in cheek i feel the spotlight falling
flare the enemy want u to want me

my clothes never seem to come off right
sticking to my arms and my thighs
i just wanted to feel id done it right
when all i needed was u holding me tight
