B i o g r a p h y
 (by Liam Martin)

London-born singer/songwriter and poet Arlo Parks pens vividly descriptive lyrics about young adult emotional experiences and mental health awareness, accompanied by an enticing mixture of bedroom pop and indie soul. She first received attention for several early singles and two 2019 EPs, which gained BBC Radio 1 airplay and praise from publications such as NME. Her 2021 full-length debut, Collapsed in Sunbeams, reached number three on the U.K. album chart and was met with widespread acclaim, winning Parks the Brit Award for Best New Artist and the 2021 Mercury Prize. On her second album, 2023's My Soft Machine, she expressed feelings related to the anxiety of constant touring and her first serious relationship, among other personal topics.

Born Anaïs Oluwatoyin Estelle Marinho in 2000, of Nigerian, French, and Chadian heritage, Parks debuted in 2018 with the single "Cola." The track ultimately appeared on April 2019's Beatnik-issued Super Sad Generation EP, a release that caught the attention of Transgressive, which signed her a month later, before she'd finished her A-Level exams. After a run of singles -- and a collaboration with Leicester's Easy Life on their Junk Food track "Sangria" -- she issued a second EP, Sophie, leading to a placement on the BBC's Sound of 2020 list.

By May 2020, Parks' "Black Dog" single was playlisted by BBC Radio 1, broadcasting its theme of mental health awareness to millions. This simultaneously boosted her profile and led to an association with the charity CALM. That track, and its double A-side "Eugene," were co-written and produced by the New York-based Gianluca Buccellati, who had also worked with her on "Cola" and the title tracks of her EPs. This release was swiftly followed by a heartfelt, piano-led cover of Radiohead's "Creep." Arlo Parks' debut full-length, the Grammy-nominated Collapsed in Sunbeams, arrived in January 2021. A series of vignettes about her adolescence, it opened with a scored poem. Parks performed her single "Hope" at the 2021 Brit Awards, where she was named Best New Artist. In September, Collapsed in Sunbeams won the prestigious Mercury Prize for album of the year.

Parks released the non-album single "Softly" in 2022, and spent much of the year on tour, both as a headliner and with Clairo, who appeared on her first album's "Green Eyes." She also relocated to Los Angeles; however, in September, she was forced to cancel several tour dates due to exhaustion and burnout and returned to London to recuperate. Parks announced her second album, My Soft Machine, in early 2023, accompanied by the release of first single and video "Weightless." Focusing on navigating life in her twenties, the album arrived in May, with Phoebe Bridgers guesting on the song "Pegasus." The Magic Border, a book containing song lyrics, poems, and photos, was published in September. My Soft Machine's deluxe edition arrived in December, including acoustic versions of album tracks, guest features by Louis and the Yakuza and Redveil, and covers of tunes by Jai Paul and Tirzah.

Collapsed In Sunbeams

Collapsed In Sunbeams

Collapsed in sunbeams
Stretched out, open to beauty, however brief or violent
I see myself ablaze with joy
Sleepy-eyed
Feeding your cat or slicing artichoke hearts
I see myself sitting beside you
Elbows touching
Hurt and terribly quiet
The turquoise in my ring matches the deep blue cramp of everything
We're all learning to trust our bodies
Making peace with our own distortions
You shouldn't be afraid to cry in front of me

Hurt

Charlie drank it till his eyes burned then forgot to eat his lunch
Pain was built into his body heart so soft it hurt to beat

Wouldn't it be lovely to feel something for once
Oh wouldn't it be lovely to feel worth something huh

I know you can't let go of anything at the moment
Just know it would hurt so, won't hurt so much forever
Won't hurt so much
Won't hurt so much forever
Won't hurt so much
Won't hurt so much

Charlie melts into his mattress
Watching Twin Peaks on his ones
Then his fingers find a bottle
When he starts to miss his mum

Wouldn't it be lovely to feel something for once
Yeah wouldn't it be lovely to feel worth something huh

I know you can't let go of anything at the moment
Just know it would hurt so, won't hurt so much forever
Won't hurt so much
Won't hurt so much forever
Won't hurt so much
Won't hurt so much

Charlie started seeing stars so stuck on the new Jai Paul
Said my clothes are sticking to me and I can't quite see my walls
Started dreaming of a house with red carnations by the windows
Where he didn't feel so small so overwhelmed by all his flaws

I know you can't let go of anything at the moment
Just know it would hurt so, won't hurt so much forever
Won't hurt so much
Won't hurt so much forever
Won't hurt so much
Won't hurt so much forever

I know you can't let go of anything at the moment
Just know it would hurt so, won't hurt so much forever
Won't hurt so much
Won't hurt so much forever
Won't hurt so much
Won't hurt so much

I know you can't let go of anything at the moment
Just know it would hurt so, won't hurt so much forever
Won't hurt so much
Won't hurt so much forever
Won't hurt so much
Won't hurt so much

Too Good

Why do we make the simplest things so hard

I bought you breakfast and you started your rings
The air was fragrant and thick with our silence
I held my breath as something deep inside pinched
I touched the bump on your wrist you were born with

Watching you trying to push away
It hurts when you see it coming
You're too proud to tell me that you care
Watching you trying to push away
It hurts when you see it coming
Never use your words to show you care

I think you know it
Too cool to show it
Babe, you're so good
You're too good to be true
I think you know it
Too cool to show it
Babe, you're so good
You're too good to be true

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Why do we make the simplest things so hard

I let my pain out through the way that I sit
And start to pick at the rips in my Nikes
You quote Thom Yorke and lean in for a quick kiss
But still you just won't admit that you like me

Watching you lower both your eyes
It hurts when you know it's over
Still too stubborn to show that you care
Watching you lower both your eyes
It hurts when you know it's over
I feel like you never really cared

I think you know it
Too cool to show it
Babe, you're so good
You're too good to be true
I think you know it
Too cool to show it
Babe, you're so good
You're too good to be true

I think you know it
Too cool to show it
Babe, you're so good
You're too good to be true
I think you know it
Too cool to show it
Babe, you're so good
You're too good to be true

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Why do we make the simplest things so hard
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Why do we make the simplest things so hard

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Sunspots in your eyes, dark green
You still mean the world to me
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Why do we make the simplest things so hard

Why do we make the simplest things so hard

Hope

Millie tried to talk the pleasure back into being alive
Reminiscing 'bout the apricots and blunts on Peckham Rye
Won't call her friends 'cause she's ashamed of being locked into bed
Can't feel her legs and feeling like a liar at best

You're not alone like you think you are
You're not alone like you think you are
We all have scars, I know it's hard
You're not alone, you're not alone

You're not alone like you think you are
You're not alone like you think you are
We all have scars, I know it's hard
You're not alone, you're not alone

You're not alone, you're not alone

Started sweating bullets when her dad asked, "How d'you really feel?"
She said, "I've been feeling like something inside me wants to scream
Won't call my friends, I'm persuaded that they'll leave in the end
Can't feel my legs, I'm feeling like a liar at best"

You're not alone like you think you are
You're not alone like you think you are
We all have scars, I know it's hard
You're not alone, you're not alone

You're not alone like you think you are
You're not alone like you think you are
We all have scars, I know it's hard
You're not alone, you're not alone

I've often felt like I was born under a bad sign
Wearing suffering like a silk garment or a spot of blue ink
Looking for light and finding a hole where there shouldn't be one
I cannot communicate the depth of the feeling
Truth is I'm still learning to be open about this
But know that I know and you're not alone
You know that I know and you're not alone

You're not alone like you think you are
You're not alone like you think you are
We all have scars, I know it's hard
You're not alone, you're not alone

You're not alone like you think you are
You're not alone like you think you are
We all have scars, I know it's hard
You're not alone, you're not alone

Caroline

I was waiting for the bus one day
Watched a fight between an artsy couple escalate
Strawberry cheeks flushed with defeated rage
Then he spilled his coffee as he frantically explained

Maybe if you took a breath
You would hear me when I talk to you
Threw her necklace in his face
Eyes so bright with disappointment
I saw something inside her break
Everybody knows the feeling
Suddenly he started screaming

"Caroline, I swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried
Caroline, I swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried, I swear to God I tried"

Ripped the hem of her skirt as she ran
Panicking and weaving through the crowds on Oxford Street
Watched his world dissolve in his hands
Tried to roll a blem then put his head between his knees, oh

Maybe if she took a breath
She would know I did it all for her
Agony and hints of sage
Her eyes blind with disappointment
I couldn't recognize her face
Shards of glass live in this feeling
Have to somehow stop her leaving

"Caroline, I swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried
Caroline, I swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried
Caroline, I swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried
Caroline, I swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried, I swear to God I tried"

Black Dog

I'd lick the grief right off your lips
You do your eyes like Robert Smith
Sometimes it seems like you won't survive this
And honestly it's terrifying

Let's go to the corner store and buy some fruit
I would do anything to get you out your room
Just take your medicine and eat some food
I would do anything to get you out your room
It's so cruel what your mind can do for no reason

I take a jump off the fire escape
To make the black dog go away
At least I know that you are trying
But that's what makes it terrifying

Let's go to the corner store and buy some fruit
I would do anything to get you out your room
Just take your medicine and eat some food
I would do anything to get you out your room
It's so cruel what your mind can do for no reason

It's so cruel what your mind can do for no reason

Green Eyes

Summer in my eyelids
Eating rice and beans
Painting Kaia's bedroom
Think she wanted green
But the weather puts you on my mind
Dragonfruit and peaches in the wine
Kissing circles underneath your eyes

Of course I know why we lasted two months
Could not hold my hand in public
Felt their eyes judging our love and baying for blood
I could never blame you darling

Some of these folks wanna make you cry
But you've gotta trust how you feel inside and shine
And shine, yeah, yeah, yeah

I wish that your parents had been kinder to you
They made you hate what you were out of habit
Remember when they caught us making out after school
Your dad said he felt like he'd lost you so I know why

We lasted two months
Could not hold my hand in public
Felt their eyes judging our love and baying for blood
I could never blame you darling

Some of these folks wanna make you cry
But you've gotta trust how you feel inside and shine
And shine, yeah, yeah, yeah

Some of these folks wanna make you cry
But you've gotta trust how you feel inside and shine
And shine, yeah

Just Go

Thought I was hallucinating
When you turned up at my house
Hair dyed silver, mumbling apologies
I don't trust your eyes

Told me I should change my mind
Said you're feeling dead inside without me
As I watched you welling up
I knew you hadn't changed that much

Why don't you just go
Why don't you just go
Why don't you just go
Why don't you just go
Why don't you just go
Oh why don't you just

Can't forget her necklace in the backseat of your car
Can't forget the hickies, you know bitter blossoms fast
Won't deny I miss your choice of words, but I can't go back

Begging me to change my mind
Said you're feeling dead inside without me
As I watched you welling up
I knew you hadn't changed that much

Why don't you just go
Why don't you just go
(Go, go, go, oh)
Why don't you just go
Why don't you just go
Why don't you just go

Why don't you just go
Why don't you just go
Why don't you just go

Why don't you just go
Why don't you just go
Why don't you just go
Why don't you just go

For Violet

Couldn't always come to mine when your dad got angry
So I'd play Nujabes down the phone for you to hear
I could picture terror swirling in your iris
You would say, "I cannot bear this, get me out of here"

Wait
You know when college starts again, you'll manage
Wait
You know that I'll be there to kiss the damage
Wait
You know I bought a couple books I think you'd like
Just hold on for tonight

It feels like nothing's changing and I can't do this, can't do this
It feels like nothing's changing and I can't do this, can't do this
It feels like nothing's changing and I can't do this, can't do this
It feels like nothing's changing, it feels like nothing's changing

Oleander bushes flourish in your garden
I'd come 'round for pancakes and we'd stretch under the leaves
He would always act so sarcastically charming
Wonder if he realised how much he hurt his kids

Wait
You know when college starts again, you'll manage
Wait
You know that I'll be there to kiss the damage
Wait
You know I bought a couple books I think you'll like
So hold on for tonight

It feels like nothing's changing and I can't do this, can't do this
It feels like nothing's changing and I can't do this, can't do this
It feels like nothing's changing and I can't do this, can't do this
It feels like nothing's changing, it feels like nothing's changing

Eugene

(Yeah, yeah)
Yeah
(Yeah)

I had a dream, we kissed
And it was all amethyst
The underpart of your eyes was violet
You hung a cigarette between your purple lips

We've been best buds since thirteen
I hold your head back when you're too lean
I hold the Taco Bell and you cried over Eugene
He was mean
He was mean

Hey, I know I've been a little bit off and that's my mistake
I kind of fell half in love and you're to blame
I guess I just forgot that we've been mates since day
Yeah, I don't know what to say
Hey, I know I've been a little bit off and that's my mistake
I kind of fell half in love and you're to blame
I guess I just forgot that we've been mates since day
Yeah, I don't know what to say

Seein' you with him burns
I feel it deep in my throat
You put your hands in his shirt
You play him records I showed you
Read him Sylvia Plath, I thought that that was our thing
You know I like you like that
I hate that son of a bitch

We've been best buds since thirteen
But that don't change the things I feel
Oh, when I see you smile with your teeth at Eugene
Yeah, I can't deal

Hey, I know I've been a little bit off and that's my mistake
I kind of fell half in love and you're to blame
I guess I just forgot that we've been mates since day
Yeah, I don't know what to say
Hey, I know I've been a little bit off and that's my mistake
I kind of fell half in love and you're to blame
I guess I just forgot that we've been mates since day
Yeah, I don't know what to say

Bluish

You held me
You held me so hard I went bluish
I resolve to set boundaries
I went bluish, I went bluish

Smothered me with fake blood and ginger
Around your throat
Always charming and balanced
That's why it hurt the most
I got so claustrophobic
But you were never close enough
Hey

It's not easy when you call me in the dead of the night
When I say I need some space
I shouldn't have to ask you twice
It's not easy when you call me in the dead of the night
When I say I need some space
I shouldn't have to ask you twice

Shouldn't have to
Shouldn't have to ask you twice
Shouldn't have to

I went bluish, I went bluish

You twist violets in my eyes
Always in my house just smoking
Drinking tea, collecting spines
Never had the chance to miss you
I had never had the chance to miss you

Heart in my mouth
Please let me out
Please let me out of you
Heart in my mouth
Please let me out
Please let me out of you

It's not easy when you call me in the dead of the night
When I say I need some space
I shouldn't have to ask you twice
It's not easy when you call me with your voice pink and white
When I say I need some space
I shouldn't have to ask you twice

Shouldn't have to
Shouldn't have to ask you twice
I shouldn't have to
Shouldn't have to ask you twice
I shouldn't have to
Shouldn't have to ask you twice
I shouldn't have to
Shouldn't have to ask you twice
I shouldn't have to
Shouldn't have to ask you twice
I shouldn't have to

Portra 400

Making rainbows out of something painful
Getting fried as hell and dodging gravestones

Spiralling in bathrooms, tile on cheek
Telling me the drugs will only make me weak
Don't you think I know that
Don't you think I know that
Keeping bits of moonstone next to me
Tried to shave your stubble, but you gashed your cheek
Won't you stay away
Won't you stay away from me
With you I'm always

Making rainbows out of something painful
Getting fried as hell and dodging gravestones

You look like me when you lie
Boiled blood star shifts in the window of my eye
You put warm salt to the stitch
And I suffer for the sky that you shook nine times
You smell like burnt hibiscus
I still feel blessed even when you're bitching
You stole my spine for a minute
So I cut my hair just to make you smile

Making rainbows out of something painful
Getting fried as hell and dodging gravestones
Making rainbows out of something painful
Getting fried as hell and dodging gravestones

Cola (lo fi lounge)

Leave me to my own devices
It's better when your Coca-Cola eyes are outta my face
I checked your phone and no surprises
She's grinning from ear to ear in purple lace

So take your orchids
Elsewhere (Elsewhere)
I loved you to death
But now I don't really care
'Cause you're running 'round over there
Yeah, you're running 'round over there
And now I don't really care
'Cause you're running 'round over there
And now I don't really care
'Cause you're running 'round over there

Yeah, I'll miss your t-shirt in the rain
The one that makes you look like Gerard Way
Eating grapes in the back of the party
Throwing hands 'cause she drank your Bacardi
I know it's kinda dumb but I'll miss the way you dressed all punk
With the black and the studs and the ripped-up gloves
Bet she loved your tough-guy front

So take your orchids
Elsewhere (Elsewhere)
I loved you to death
But now I don't really care
'Cause you're running 'round over there
Yeah, you're running 'round over there
And now I don't really care
'Cause you're running 'round over there
And now I don't really care
'Cause you're running 'round over there

Black Dog Poem (lo fi lounge)

This a poem called Black Dog

You promised you'd be there in the morning
And I only half-believed you
Because last time you said that, you almost weren't
I should have forgotten that by now, but I remember
There has always been a part of you
Some little agony
Smooth, hot, painful
Something that I cannot touch
I hear the smile in your voice today, though
A loose string of dark-red silk
So soft, faint and rare
Where did it come from
For months it seemed the curtains were always closed
It seemed like you were always angry at me and tired of yourself
It seemed like you wouldn't survive this
Ignoring the jewel of hope behind my right eye
Rolling over onto your side to crush a tear with the side of your wrist
Like a tiny blue flower
We were all so scared

Bags (lo fi lounge)

Every second counts
I don't wanna talk to you anymore
Yeah
All these little games
You can call me by the name I gave you, oh
Yesterday
Hey, yeah

Every minute counts
I don't wanna watch TV anymore
No
Can you figure me out
Just doing this to waste more time on the couch

Can you see me
I'm waiting for the right time
I can't read you
But if you want, the pleasure's all mine

Can you see me using everything to hold back
Guess this could be worse
Walking out the door with your bags

Moon Song (lo fi lounge)

You asked to walk me home
But I had to carry you
And you pushed me in
And now my feet can't touch the bottom of you

You couldn't have
You couldn't have
Stuck your tongue down the throat of somebody
Who loves you more
So I will wait for the next time you want me
Like a dog with a bird at your door
Hmm

We hate 'Tears in Heaven'
But it's sad that his baby died
And we fought about John Lennon
Until I cried
Then went to bed upset

But now I'm dreaming
And you're singing at my birthday
And I've never seen you smiling so big
It's nautical-themed
And there's something I'm supposed to say
Can't for the life of me
Remember what it is

If I could give you the moon
I would give you the moon

'Cause you're sick and you're married
You might be dying
But you're holding me like water in your hands
You saw the dead little bird
You started crying
But you know the killer doesn't understand
Doesn't understand

Baby Blue (lo fi lounge)

My sandpaper sigh
Engraves a line
Into the rust of your tongue
Girl, I could've been someone
To you
Would've painted the skies blue
Baby blue
If you knew

Baby Blue

Edging closer
You swing my way
Girl, I've got no chance
And nothing to say
Girl, but stay here
For a little while
Baby Blue

But if only
You could see
My shadow
Crossing your path

It won't be the last
Baby Blue

You are my baby
I was your slave, can't you see
I was your slave, can't you see

Bobbing on the problem
On the problem
On the throbbing
She was falling, I was bawling
My heart was stopping, she was throbbing
Baby Blue

Ivy (lo fi lounge)

I thought that I was dreamin'
When you said you loved me
The start of nothing
I had no chance to prepare
I couldn't see you comin'

The start of nothing, oh
I could hate you now
It's quite alright to hate me now
But we both know that deep down
The feeling still deep down is good

If I could see through walls
I could see you're fakin'
If you could see my thoughts
You would see our faces
Safe in my rental like an armored truck back then
We didn't give a fuck back then
I ain't a kid no more
We'll never be those kids again

We'd drive to Syd's, had the X6 back then
Back then
No matter what I did
My waves wouldn't dip back then
Everything sucked back then
We were friends

I thought that I was dreamin'
When you said you loved me
The start of nothin'
I had no chance to prepare
I couldn't see you comin'

The start of nothing, ooh
I could hate you now
It's quite alright to hate me now
But we both know that deep down
The feeling still deep down is good

In the halls of your hotel
Arm around my shoulder so I could tell
How much I meant to you
Meant it sincere back then
We had time to kill back then
You ain't a kid no more
We'll never be those kids again
It's not the same, ivory's illegal
Don't you remember
I broke your heart last week
You'll probably feel better by the weekend
Still remember, had you going crazy
Screaming my name
The feeling deep down is good

I thought that I was dreamin'
When you said you loved me
The start of nothin'
I had no chance to prepare
I couldn't see you comin'

The start of nothin', oh
I could hate you now
It's quite alright to hate me now
When we both know that deep down
The feeling still deep down is good

My Soft Machine

Bruiseless

I wish I was bruisless
Almost everyone I love has been abused, and I am included
I feel so much guilt that I couldn't guard more people from harm
We listen to Loomer, lumps in my head I struggle to smooth
The person I love is patient with me
She's feeding me cheese and I'm happy
Like a Peony ripped by the chain of a dirt bike
I just wish I was seven and blameless
Going over the handlebars
Pollen sniffling over grazes
I just wish that my eyes were still wide

Impurities

Piling in the Escalade
My chest is buzzing like a bluebird caged
Laugh like Juliette Binoche
You touch my leg to make sure I'm still there

I radiate like a star, like a star, star, star
I radiate like a star, like a star, star, star
I radiate like a star, like a star, star, star

When you embrace all my impurities
When you embrace all my impurities
When you embrace all my impurities
And I feel clean again

Oh, the look you threw me then was so intense that it was physical
You're the rainbow in my soap, you notice beauty in more forms than most

I radiate like a star, like a star, star, star
I radiate like a star, like a star, star, star
I radiate like a star, like a star, star, star

When you embrace all my impurities
When you embrace all my impurities
When you embrace all my impurities
And I feel clean again

Don't hide the bruise when you know I'm watching, baby
Don't hide the bruise when you know I'm watching, baby
Don't hide the bruise, I know it's hard to be alive sometimes

I radiate like a star, like a star, star, star
I radiate like a star, like a star, star, star
I radiate like a star, like a star, star, star

When you embrace all my impurities
When you embrace all my impurities
When you embrace all my impurities
And I feel clean again

Devotion

Got me falling on my sword, but I don't resent you
Shaking to Deftones, glitter in my bones
Love you like I don't know better

Girl, I wanna protect you, I do, oh
Your touch embroiders me
I'm wide open, hmm

All yours, baby
Come down like a million tonnes
All yours, baby
Flood me with your nervous love
All yours, baby
Come down like a million tonnes
All yours, baby

Now I got my show clothes on, the clutch is sticking
Challenger dark blue, why do I trust you
When you tell me I'm a good thing

Girl, I wanna protect you, I do, oh
Your eyes destroying me
I'm wide open, hmm

All yours, baby
Come down like a million tonnes
All yours, baby
Flood me with your nervous love
All yours, baby
Come down like a million tonnes
All yours, baby
Flood me with your nervous love

All yours, baby
Come down like a million tonnes
All yours, baby
Flood me with your nervous love
All yours, baby
Come down like a million tonnes
All yours, baby
Flood me with your nervous love

I think in a way, I've always loved you
I used to hate it when people said that shit
But I mean it
You make me feel free
Ripping it out of me like Kim Deal

Blades

I'm exhausted watching like Claire Danes through the water
Kitchen light like blades through your body
The party's ablaze
We grew apart when you were fighting with your sister, I
Don't think I realised how horribly I miss you now
Regret is flowering inside me while I'm scooping ice

Hope you know that I, I just don't know what to do
'Cause I only want to be with you

I remember there was something strangely romantic
In our friendship, we were dramatic
I wept in your arms
Talking for hours on the gravel, letting our backs burn
Walking to Boxers linking pinkies, wearing matching pearls
And now I'm struggling, I'm choking up without the words

Hope you know that I, I just don't know what to do
'Cause I only want to be with you
I just miss your voice
Saying we're alright
Callin' when you're lonely, late at night
'Cause I only want to be with you

So I make my way
Over as the white lightning zigzags
And you're with Ahmed
Plum red slacks and tequila fresa
And you laugh the same
Hand on mouth 'cause you hate your teeth
And I love your teeth
And I'm scared to speak
As I catch a whiff of your rose Diptyque

But I, I just don't know what to do
'Cause I only want to be with you
I just miss your voice
Saying we're alright
Callin' when you're lonely, late at night
'Cause I only want to be with you
Only want to be with you

I only want to be with you
Only want to be with you

Purple Phase

Saturday was rotten to the core
Whispering to Jodie on the floor
Terrified of turning 24, wet-eyed paranoid
(It's just a)
Promising to rise above the thoughts
Tried to flush her pills and get support
There's a centre in upstate New York, smoke blue lakes and talks
(It's just a)

I just want to see her iridescent charming cats down from trees
Mugler aviators hiding eyes that laugh when concealed
Saviour instinct tells me use your hands to drag her to peace
To a place she can sleep

It's just a purple phase
It's just a purple phase
It's just a purple phase
It's just a purple phase

Oh Jodie won't you tell me what you're holding on for?
Holding on for?
(It's just a)
I would find it all then I'd give it to you
I'd give it to you yeah yeah yeah

I just want to see her iridescent charming cats down from trees
Mugler aviators hiding eyes that laugh when concealed
Saviour instinct tells me use your hands to drag her to peace
To a place she can sleep

It's just a purple phase
It's just a purple phase
It's just a purple phase
It's just a purple phase

I want you happy, I want you happy
I think you're precious, I think you're precious
I want you happy, I want you happy
Oh you're so precious, you're so precious to me

It's just a
It's just a
It's just a
It's just a
It's just a
It's just a

It's just a purple phase
It's just a purple phase
It's just a purple phase
It's just a purple phase

It's just a purple phase
It's just a purple phase
It's just a purple phase
It's just a purple phase

Weightless

Cardamom and jade as your eyes screamed
On the night you showed your volcanic side
And I'm afraid to need validation
Waiting for the day when you finally tried

The sandflies and the champagne
You're closed off, I'm so drained
But a sparkle in the rare case
That you tell me I'm your sunray

I'm starved of your affection
You're crushed under the pressure
But you won't change
No, you won't change

I don't wanna wait for you
I don't wanna wait for you
I don't wanna wait for you
But I need you, so I won't go

I don't wanna wait for you
Don't wanna wait for you
I don't wanna wait for you
But I need you, so I won't go

Dive into the past and you cut me
Re reading our texts from the strawberry days
Just give me a sign if you want me
Just give me a sign if you wanna stay

There's blue glass in the soft rain
You're passive, I'm in pain
But a sparkle in the rare case
That you tell me I'm your sunray

I'm starved of your affection
You're crushed under the pressure
But you won't change
No, you won't change

I don't wanna wait for you
Don't wanna wait for you
Don't wanna wait for you
But I need you, so I won't go

I don't wanna wait for you
Don't wanna wait for you
I don't wanna wait for you
But I need you, so I won't go

And I usually know my strength
But here I am at ninety degrees bent
A metallic taste at the back of my throat
Watch your deltoid flex as you cough on the phone

And I've lost my grit and I'm in my head
You're so withdrawn and I'm standing there
Keeping wool over my eyes
Keeping wool over my eyes

I don't wanna wait for you
Don't wanna wait for you
Don't wanna wait for you
But I need you, so I won't go

I don't wanna wait for you
Don't wanna wait for you
I don't wanna wait for you
But I need you, so I won't go

I don't wanna wait for you
Don't wanna wait for you
Don't wanna wait for you
But I need you, so I won't go

I don't wanna wait for you
Don't wanna wait for you
I don't wanna wait for you
But I need you, so I won't go


Pegasus

(feat. Phoebe Bridgers)

Fallin' asleep
Holdin' your puppy in your Prussian blue sheets
Never felt luckier
Than I do right now, tell me you love me, let me have it

Blood on your fleece
Grippin' the cup and gettin' sick in the streets
Never felt luckier
Than I do right now, under the stars you trust in me

Blue jewels round your neck
Can cool my distress
Loose cherries, hard breath
I'm overwhelmed

I spun round and screamed, "I feel elated when you hold me"
Then you got shy and beamed, "I think it's special that you told me"
I think you're special 'cause you told me
I think you're special 'cause you told me
I think you're special 'cause you told me

Got the red eye
Just to be near, 'cause my head eats me alive
You're makin' sure I'm eatin'
I call my mother just to tell her that I'm happy

I'll tell you the truth
Being with someone always made me feel used
Then it would make me angry
'Cause I need love like a body needs sugar, I need love

Blue jewels round your neck
Can cool my distress
Loose cherries, hard breath
I'm overwhelmed
Ready

I spun round and screamed, "I feel elated when you hold me"
Then you got shy and beamed, "I think it's special that you told me"
I think you're special 'cause you told me
Ready
I think you're special 'cause you told me
I think you're special 'cause you told me

Ready

Dog Rose

You're jumping the turnstiles
And I'm feeling horrible, wearing your clothes
Gowanus and mezcal
It's your brother's birthday, the sky is dog rose

And I keep getting pangs when I look up, seeing you there
Doing dishes for your step mum

I hope it's not a big deal
You got me feeling hyperreal
And I

Wanna belong to you
Wanna belong to you
Wanna belong to you
I'm sorry if that scares you but I can't help it

I thought you could tell by
My awkward devotion to making you laugh
Your cat in my arms, dancing to Enya hard
Kicking out at your phone

And I'm watching you chew the side of your cheek
Nicorette patch peeking under your angel sleeve

I hope it's not a big deal
You got me feeling hyperreal
And I

Wanna belong to you
Wanna belong to you
Wanna belong to you
I'm sorry if that scares you but I can't help it

Wanna belong to you
Wanna belong to you
Wanna belong to you
I'm sorry if that scares you but I can't help it

I can't help it
I can't help it
I'm sorry if that scares you but I can't help it

Puppy

Summer spread its wings
Grilling meat and burning out
Grady lost his mother, now he's sleeping on my couch
And I never felt loss like that, and I pray I don't have to
See him staring way out, puppy dog trapped in a small gray Honda

I know some things don't get easier
I know some things hurt forever
Hurt forever
Hurt forever
Hurt forever
Hurt forev-

August was a daze, hell and heaven all at once
Spilling out the duplex, lacerated by first love
And we're wishing we could take it back
And we're learning discomfort
And we know that when you make plans it doesn't go like that

I know some things don't get easier
I know some things hurt forever
Hurt forever
Hurt forever
Hurt forever
Hurt forev-

Shadow box the fear of death
Wim Wenders movies and awkward sex
Big mulberry stain on the tennis dress
I'm a star, I don't care what your roommate says
Wonder if the world might make sense when we got three kids and our thirties end
But we're all scared kids and it don't make sense
We're all scared kids

I know some things don't get easier
I know some things hurt forever
Hurt forever
Hurt forever
Hurt forever
Hurt forev-

I'm Sorry

Butterflies in my skull when you sat me down
At the Dayglow café
I know that I haven't been myself
That I lost my courage

Petrol in the air, wisteria and scrambled eggs
Try to pin me down but I can't stand to show you
He affected me

I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
It's easier to be numb
I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
It's really just hard to trust anyone
It's really just hard to trust anyone

Sky blue shirt and I'm so desperately hurt
But I know you're there
And I can't make myself open up
As the sirens blare

Petrol in the air, wisteria and scrambled eggs
Try to pin me down but I can't stand for you to see me like this

I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
It's easier to be numb
I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
It's really just hard to trust anyone
It's really just hard to trust anyone

I've been working incessantly
But that won't keep the wolves away
I been working incessantly
Like a wasp, feeling trapped and crazed
Tried to tell my therapist everything
Tried to meditate
Fuck the pain away
Tried to move out to LA
Dye my hair lime, be a saint
But I won't peek through the blinds I've shut in myself
And so nothing changed
Yeah I won't peek through the blinds I've shut in myself
And so nothing changed

I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
It's easier to be numb
I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
It's really just hard to trust anyone
It's really just hard to trust anyone
It's really just hard to trust anyone


Room (Red Wings)

Pull up when you want me
I would
Pull up when you want me
I would

Itching the scar on my arm
Solo to keep me from harm, haven't heard from you
Since I bleached my roots
Ghosting me hard for a kick
Blowing me up when you need it
My wings are clipped and my head's in bits
Yeah we spent a summer so entangled
As the sugar browned
And you started hurting me
Cause you were turning inside out
Yeah you know I'd pull up for you
Even when you let me down
I'd pull up, pull up for you

Without you, I'm devastated
Now I just want to eat cake in a room with a view
Without you, I'm devastated
Now I just want to eat cake in a room with a view
Pull up when you want me
I would
Pull up when you want me
I would
Pull up when you want me
I would
Pull up when you want me
I would

B roll of us in my lids, dusting the coke off your fist
You were so far up, I would worry desperately
Trying my best to be strong, then breaking down to my mum
Watch the gingko leaves as the windows steam
Yeah we spent a summer so entangled
Listening to Frank
And I never dreamed that you would lose yourself
So far so bad
Yeah you know I'd pull up for you
Even when you make me so sad
I'd pull up, pull up for you

Without you, I'm devastated
Now I just want to eat cake in a room with a view
Without you, I'm devastated
Now I just want to eat cake in a room with a view
Pull up when you want me
I would
Pull up when you want me
I would
Pull up when you want me
I would
Pull up when you want me
I would

We could've been immortal (oh yeah oh yeah)
We could've been immortal (oh yeah oh yeah)
We could've been immortal (oh yeah oh yeah)
But the dream fell flat without you
You were on a different page
We could've been immortal (oh yeah oh yeah)
We could've been immortal (oh yeah oh yeah)
We could've been immortal (oh yeah oh yeah)
But the dream fell flat without you
You were on a different page

Without you, I'm devastated
Now I just want to eat cake in a room with a view
Without you, I'm devastated
Now I just want to eat cake in a room with a view

Ghost

I'm stumblin' around the park just to think
I'm always startled when the ghost of things appear unwanted
The swans are gliding while the wind whips and stings
The sapphire in my signet ring
I know that's it's been a while since
Came over, let you drape your arm 'round my bad shoulder
When I trust you I'll crush my composure
Wanna tell you the truth, melt right into you

Melt right into you
Let you be the glue
Melt right into you, you

Between the sheets of rhododendron and sky
I cast my mind across the day you said you'd always be there
I pushed a curl of hair away from your eye
And said "It's sweet of you to lie"
I know that's it's been a while since
Came over
It's hard to be unguarded
I know I come across cold
Dropping out like a stone
When I'm crumblin', but I owe you the truth
Wanna I melt right into you

Melt right into you
Let you be my glue
Melt right into you, you

I'm so easily wounded
Glasses of pineapple juice out on the Heath
My head in your lap
You offer me space, wild bees and sweat
I'm scared if I tell you, you'll think of me as weak
I don't wanna be that friend that's always in pain
So I bottle it up, it hurts when I do it
We stare at the sun

Wanna let you in, wanna let you help me
Wanna let you in, wanna have transparency
Wanna let you in, wanna tell you everythin', everythin'

Melt right into you
Let you be that glue
Melt right into you, you
Let you be my glue
Melt right into you
Let you be my glue
Melt right into you, you

Jasmine

(Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)

Are you with me, Jasmine
Would you let me in
Would you knock me over
Like a bottle of gin
Jasmine

Is it 'cause I scare you
Is it 'cause I knew
But you've got to trust me
Even if no one else will
Jasmine

When I see you, Jasmine
What's a boy to do
Please come back to me and
Make my dream come true
When it comes to heartbreak
What's a little girl like you know
Melt my heart of stone and
Make my dream come true
Come true

Can I get you Friday
Saturday, if it's your day
I must be a real creep
'Cause I think it's all for me
Is it really nothin'
Is that what it is
'Cause I think you're wrong
There is nothin' like this

When I see you, Jasmine
What's a boy to do
Please come back to me and
Make my dream come true
When it comes to heartbreak
What's a little girl like you know
Melt my heart of stone and
Make my dream come true

When you see me, Jasmine
I know what you think
You look down on me
Don't you think I'm weak
When it comes to heartbreak
I don't wanna feel that way
Just come back to me
Make my dream come true

Make my dream come true

Make my dream come true
Come true, yeah
Make my dream come true
Jasmine, Jasmine
Make my, make my dream come true
Jasmine

I'm Sorry (Remix)

(feat. Lous and the Yakuza)

Butterflies in my skull when you sat me down
At the Dayglow café
I know that I haven't been myself
That I lost my courage

Petrol in the air, wisteria
And scrambled eggs
Try to pin me down
But I can't stand to show you
He affected me

I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
It's easier to be numb
I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
It's really just hard to trust anyone
It's really just hard to trust anyone

Je suis désolée, j'ai oublié
Toutes les choses de mon passé
J'ai préféré me noyer dans l'océan de mes pensées

Comme un oiseau dans le brouillard
Je m'enfonce dans un trou noir
Je ne vole que très tard le soir
Je m'éloigne de tous les miroirs

I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
It's easier to be numb
I'm sorry, sorry (I'm sorry)
It's really just hard to trust anyone
Trust anyone, trust anyone
It's really just hard to trust anyone
C'est dur de faire confiance aux autres
OK, OK

Je ne voulais pas être sauvée
Et j'aurais voulu te dire désolée
J'ai préféré oublier mon passé
Me noyer dans l'océan de mes pensées
Pour nous la même langue
Tout ça prend du temps
I truly realise that you may move on
Combien de temps passé dans le brouillard
Ok, ok
Je me sens enfoncée dans un trou noir
Ok, ok
Je ne vois plus mon reflet dans le miroir, tu sais
Je doute tous les soirs

I'm sorry
It's easier to be numb
I'm sorry
It's really just hard it never gets easier, easier to trust anyone
It's really just hard to trust anyone
It's really just hard to trust anyone
It's really just hard to trust anyone
It's just hard to
It's really just hard to trust anyone
To trust anyone
And I'm sorry

Blades (Remix)

(feat. Redveil)

I'm exhausted watching like Claire Danes through the water
Kitchen light like blades through your body
The party's ablaze
We grew apart when you were fighting with your sister, I
Don't think I realised how horribly I miss you now
Regret is flowering inside me while I'm scooping ice

Hope you know that I, I just don't know what to do
'Cause I only want to be with you

4:42 in the mornin', I'm stuck
Performin' when I wake, my mind another place
Reminded of your face when that chorus up
My cortisol gon' rise 'cause I'm mournin' all that we went through
Assortment of regret I been tryna sort through
And you can get wings, I'm tryna soar too
You never leavin' my brain, that's what I swore to
That's what I swore to, I
Wish I knew when it was over
Wish I knew when it was over, don't leave me 'lone
Skin feel like Minnesota
Your embrace in the mornin', that was my coat
Now that warmth gone, I'm sober
Now that warmth gone, I'm sober and braved the storm
And I hope

Hope you know that I, I just don't know what to do (Do, do)
'Cause I only want to be with you (Be with you, be with you)
I just miss your voice, saying we're alright
Callin' when you're lonely, late at night
'Cause I only want to be with you

So I make my way
Over as the white lightning zigzags
And you're with Ahmed
Plum red slacks and tequila fresa
And you laugh the same
Hand on mouth 'cause you hate your teeth
And I love your teeth
And I'm scared to speak
As I catch a whiff of your rose Diptyque

But I, I just don't know what to do
'Cause I only want to be with you
I just miss your voice, saying we're alright
Callin' when you're lonely, late at night
'Cause I only want to be with you
Only want to be with you

I only want to be with you
Only want to be with you

Holding On

(Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)

I'm not shy to say, even when it's wrong
But what's keepin' me from holdin' on
I'll be thinkin' of you even when you're gone
But what's keepin' me from holdin' on

There's no shame in letting go
Feels the same to hold on
Maybe it's stupid, I know myself
But I'm hoping
'Cause I want nothing else
Don't wanna change
And don't wanna change what you do to me

I'm not shy to say, even when it's wrong
But what's keepin' me from holdin' on
I'll be thinkin' of you even when you're gone
But what's keepin' me from holdin' on

This feeling's controlling me, I can't shut it down
No point tellin' me I can only have sound
I wanna love you, where is my frown
Don't wanna hold on to you if you're happy alone
But if you're thinkin' about me
Tell me, 'cause I'm right here all alone

I'm not shy to say, even when it's wrong
But what's keepin' me from holdin' on
I'll be thinkin' of you even when you're gone
But what's keepin' me from holdin' on

I'm not shy to say, even when it's wrong
But what's keepin' me from holdin' on
I'll be thinkin' of you even when you're gone
But what's keepin' me from holdin' on 

NON ALBUMS TRACKS

Angel's Song

(Sophie EP)

You're there living in the afterburn of the 60's
Getting high in the basement pretty
Baby with a heart full of blood and Courtney Love
You've got the pawn shop blues in this bitter city
Crying hard in the basement pretty
Angel quiet down when your dad takes you out

Do-do-do-do
This sadness ain't new
Do-do-do-do
You wanna jump off the roof
But I love you
Do-do-do-do
This sadness ain't new
Do-do-do-do
You wanna jump off the roof
Fuck, I love you

You're there thinking 'bout a girl who ain't thinking about you
Sitting numb in the basement blue
Baby, you're wishing you could die with the moon but I would miss you
You're there picking out your flaws from 3 A.M. 'til noon
Like the bad kids at school used to do
Well, fuck 'em, 'cause you turned out so kind and so cute

Do-do-do-do
This sadness ain't new
Do-do-do-do
You wanna jump off the roof
But I love you
Do-do-do-do
This sadness ain't new
Do-do-do-do
You wanna jump off the roof
But fuck, I love you

You're my angel
You're my angel
Fuck, I love you

Breathe

(Khalid feat. Arlo Parks /Sincere LP)

I'm useless, out of my depth
I don't wanna lose myself again
I'm useless, out of my depth
Baby, I need your oxygen
(When do I start to feel myself again)
I'm useless, out of my depth
I don't wanna lose myself again
(So useless)
I'm useless, out of my depth
(Need your oxygen)
Baby, I need your oxygen
So breathe

Only six a.m. and I'm out searching for morning glory
Many of us make it through the madness to tell our stories
Couple hundred million of us shackled by our depression
No one can escape our fate, the world brings us no excеptions
Even in my bed, I feel afraid when thе lights go off
Just my thoughts and I, and I've been dying to clear my conscience
Like the walls are closing on me, I get so claustrophobic
Open up my eyes, I'm still surrounded by all this darkness
And I know that

I'm useless, out of my depth
I don't wanna lose myself again
I'm useless, out of my depth
Baby, I need your oxygen
(When do I start to feel myself again)
I'm useless, out of my depth
I don't wanna lose myself again
(So useless)
I'm useless, out of my depth
(Need your oxygen)
Baby, I need your oxygen
So breathe

Searching through the darkness
For something I could do differently
Something I could do differently
Seven weeks, I've been lost at sea
So cold in my apartment
Feeling my tears start to freeze
Feeling my tears start to freeze
Seven weeks, I've been lost at sea

I'm useless, out of my depth
I don't wanna lose myself again
I'm useless, out of my depth
Baby, I need your oxygen
(When do I start to feel myself again)
I'm useless, out of my depth
I don't wanna lose myself again
(So useless)
I'm useless, out of my depth
(Need your oxygen)
Baby, I need your oxygen
So breathe

Creep

(Radiohead / Shy Radicals short film)

When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fuckin' special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts
I wanna have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here
I don't belong here

She's running out the door
She's running out
She run, run, run, run
Run

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here
I don't belong here
I don't belong here

Eugene Poem

Eugene keeps split fruit and stars between his ribs
Smoking loose blems, blending, worming his way into your heart
And what a heart! So soft, sometimes it hurts to beat
We've known each other for ages
The first time you came over, you grated ginger into a bowl
Listened to my oldest pain
Spoke like sugar water
I knew I loved you then
I'm still not quite sure in what way

Eugene bloomed, like a complicated flower, or an elegant lie
You borrowed his habit of horrible charm and effortless bruising
Everybody says you two look beautiful together
His hair smells like spoiled peaches and boiled blood
I wear jealousy so unglamorously
It upsets my stomach
I see double
Forgetting myself in the night
For a minute, I was everything you needed
We would drive for miles in search of clean air
Our eyes were blind to the future
Your future
With him
Who could have predicted the agony

Fake Plastic Trees

(Radiohead / Phoebe Bridgers feat. Arlo Parks / Live at BBC 1 Piano Session)

Green plastic watering can
For her fake Chinese rubber plant
In fake plastic earth
She bought from a rubber man
In a town full of rubber plans
To get rid of itself

It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out

She lives with a broken man
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns
He used to do surgery
For girls in the eighties
But gravity always wins

It wears him out
It wears him out
It wears him out
It wears

She looks like the real thing
Shе tastes like the rеal thing
My fake plastic love
And I can't help the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
If I just turn and run

It wears me out
It wears me out
It wears me out
It wears me out

And if I could be who you wanted
If I could be who you wanted
All the time
All the time

George

(Sophie EP)

I'm so sick of being down and watching you get arrested
I'm disgusted by you now with your rose quartz and overalls

But you leave a bit of blood in every room
Purple roses underneath your shoes
When I see the petals by the pool
I know that you've been

Here
Here
Here
I know that you've been
Here
Here
Here
I know that you've been

The walls are powder-blue (Powder-blue)
This place still stinks of you, I swear
When I hear MF Doom
It feels like you must be around somewhere

You leave a bit of blood in every room
Purple roses underneath your shoes
When I see the petals by the pool
I know that you've been

Here
Here
Here
I know that you've been
Here
Here
Here
I know that you've been

Here
Here
Here
I know that you've been
Here
Here
Here
I know that you've been

Good Guy

(Julia Jacklin / Live at Triple J Like A Version)

Tell me I'm the love of your life, just for a night
Even if you don't feel it
Tell me I'm the love of your life, just for a night
Even if you don't mean it

I don't care for the truth when I'm lonely
I don't care if you lie
I don't care if in the morning
You get up, not say goodbye
I don't care for the truth when I'm lonely
I don't care if you lie
Come on, breathe in, breathe out
You're still a good guy
You're still a good guy

Tell me I'm the love of your life, just for a night
Even if you don't feel it
Tell me I'm everything that you could find
And you don't wanna waste it

I don't care for the truth when I'm lonely
I don't care if you lie
I don't care if in the morning
You get up, not say goodbye
I don't care for the truth when I'm lonely
I don't care if you lie
Come on, breathe in, breathe out
You're still a good guy

Tell me I'm the love of your life, just for a night
Even if you don't mean it

Hard Life

(Sangria feat. Arlo Parks / Lockdown Version)

Sangria and bottle tops
Popping like we'll never stop
Reaching for some H2O
Let's wash away these boulder rocks
Drop a penny in the ocean
Start a chain reaction
Euphoric but unbalanced
Like two top heavy fractions
Cannon fodder, tunnel vision
Cocoa butter television
Silky smooth paranoia influencing my decisions
Jostling for position
We're so shit at making plans
I miss your naked body and I miss your clammy hands
I'll always show you up when I'm with you
Trouble holding my liquor
Passing out in your kitchen (it's bad)
It's always 5 AM when you call me
Different day, same story
Hang it up and ignore me

I fucking hate it when you leave
'Cause you’ve got something that I need
And I'm not zen enough to do this each week
Girl, I fucking hate it when you leave
'Cause you've got something that I need
And I keep dosing myself up on repeat, yeah

Yeah, our satisfaction is not by accident
Photographing our lifestyle
Our attraction is almost passable
I'll write your name on my profile
Happiness induced chemically
But you tend to me until I pass out
Here's the link to my Soundcloud
Here's the keys to my hometown
Mi casa es tu casa
Turn it up on the master
Brace myself for disaster (it's bad)
You're always talkin' 'bout some home truths
Catching me in some foul moods
Eating all of my soul food

I fucking hate it when you leave
'Cause you've got something that I need
And I'm not zen enough to do this each week
Boy, I fucking hate it when you leave
'Cause you've got something that I need
And I keep dosing myself up on repeat

Remember when you brought me marigolds and wine
I put your shirt on then we kissed to pass the time
I miss the places you would take me when we got too high
But won't you stay at mine just for a little while?

I fucking hate it when you leave
'Cause you've got something that I need
And I'm not zen enough to do this each week
Girl, I fucking hate it when you leave
'Cause you've got something that I need
And I keep dosing myself up on repeat

I Like

(Super Sad Generation EP)

Your eyes dilate when I come through
Lick your lips and tell me that I'm looking brand new
These times I'm tryna smoke, so what you gon' do?
Flash your money, baby, so I guess it's on you
I was thinking 'bout the devil on your face
Now you're trippin' 'cause I need a little space
Bought me daffodils and bought me Bathing Ape
All the money in the world won't make me stay

I like all the loving with some jewelry
Get me that Chanel and you gon' wait and see
I like all the fun, ain't no foolin' me
Take me to your place and you gon' wait and see
I like all the loving with some jewelry
Get me that Chanel and you gon' wait and see
I like all the fun, ain't no foolin' me
Take me to your place and you gon' wait and see

Chillin' in the shower with the butterflies on it, yeah
Splash me with the prime care-free bill in your pocket, yeah
Take me to the moon and take me to the tropics, yeah
I know that you love me, swallowing your profit, yeah
You say I'm perfect
But baby, I am cooler than the other girls, I swear
You say I'm golden
Drink your red wine by the pyre when you take me out

I like all the loving with some jewelry
Get me that Chanel and you gon' wait and see
I like all the fun, ain't no foolin' me
Take me to your place and you gon' wait and see
I like all the loving with some jewelry
Get me that Chanel and you gon' wait and see
I like all the fun, ain't no foolin' me
Take me to your place and you gon' wait and see

Last Christmas

(Wham!)

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance, but you still catch my eye
Tell me baby, do you recognize me?
Well, it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me
Merry Christmas, I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying "I love you," I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now, you'd probably fool me again

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'Il give it to someone special

A crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice
My god, I thought you were someone to rely on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
A face of a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover, but you tore me apart
And now I've found a real love
You'll never fool me again

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

London Poem

(Super Sad Generation EP)

London
Spending summers splitting our bellies with laughter over cheap fruit wine and Poundland biscuits
With King Krule growling over the trees
When I was 16 I'd take the overground to Queen's Road Peckham to see my boyfriend
And there would always be bashment or dub
Glitching down the train with kids in Doc Martens and metallic mini skirts cackling
Slathering on foundation necking Cherry B like tap water
I wrote my first poem in Bishop's Park, the end of my pencil bitten
Pockets stuffed with 45p Tesco sweets
Whining about some pretty skater boy
Next to a brown rivеr that bubbled as it rolled up towards Hammersmith

Whеn I think of London I think of the park police man
Telling me and my mates that we're guests to this country
I think of being drenched in sweat after a messy night
With kebab grease around my lips eyes lead heavy, tears shed and tobacco lost
I think of my friend's mum being robbed at knife point 5 minutes from home
Violence, violets, vapes, too many bridges. My brother plays basketball in the sun
With his laces undone and yesterday a stranger told me I reminded her of her daughter
And offered me a rollie from a little gold tin with a dragon on it
Ravenscourt Park is where I moped kicking pink plossoms and losing frisbees and barely revising physics
Two years later I brought the person I liked to sit in my favourite spot on this fallen tree
But I never mustered up the strength to kiss them
Instead we argued about where in London MF Doom was born
And where in London William Blake died
Burning through the afternoon until the February chill drove us back to the station
Where we ended up kissing
Leaning in across the barrier, while the TFL maintenance man whooped n brandished his broomstick
Shepherd's Bush Empire is where I saw Loyle Carner
Make a room full of people dance so hard they stepped on each other's feet
I had tears in my eyes when I walked out of there

London has taught me about passion and it has taught me about the underappreciated nature of most artists
From the man who plays the sax slumped barefoot against the wall of the underpass
To the guy in the year above me at school who spends hours crafting a single sentence
His freestyles slip over the beat like liquid gold. Oh London
You've made me see things so grim, so glorious, so unapologetically alive
I've watched men mash fists into each other's heads outside Spoons
I've seen a little boy hand out a crushed handful of daffodils to the lady who sells strawberries
And sweet potatoes on North End Road
I've watched girls make out with tears streaming down their painted faces by Trafalgar Square at Pride
I've watched my ex fall into a pond blind drunk then scream her throat raw at the ghost who pushed her
I've traipsed through galleries on awkward dates and put my face against museum glass
London. My city of lights
This is where I grew up. This is where I learnt to toughen up
This is where I grew up
Though, this is where I learnt love

Paperbacks

(Sophie EP)

Write your name on the back of my record jackets
If you upped and ran, I don't think I could hack it
But I'm much more alive when you're not in my eyes
Drawing dragonflies in my paperbacks all night

Cider with the guys
Having sex in the sky
I think I hate you but I don't know why

Cider with the guys
Having sex in the sky
I think I hate you but I don't know why

Cider with the guys
Having sex in the sky
I think I hate you but I don't know why

Cider with the guys
Having sex in the sky
I think I hate you but I don't know why

Quilt of Steam

(Del Water Gap feat. Arlo Parks / I Miss You Already + I Haven't Left Yet LP)

I didn't know where I was until a month or so later
When I woke up saw the quilt of steam rise off the radiator
Sweatin' through the layers, stitched in my own hand
On and on for acres

All I ever wanted was for you to take a second
Drop it all to sit with me
Waiting in the car wonderin' if you would address it
Or just leave me hurtin' quietly

I needed a change, but I wasn't brave enough
I needed a beer and a hug and a way out of the crater
I needed a change, so we wouldn't fall out of love
I couldn't admit I was crushed by the weight of being strangers

I carried on foldin' clothes alone as if it wasn't treason
Actin' strong, I just moved along as if it didn't happen
Stoic like a captain, no compass in my hand
Just hold me 'til it passes

All I ever wanted was for you to take a second
Drop it all to sit with me
Waitin' in the car wonderin' if you would address it
Or just leave me hurtin' quietly

I needed a change, but I wasn't brave enough
I needed a beer and a hug and a way out of the crater
I needed a change, so we wouldn't fall out of love
I couldn't admit I was crushed by the weight of being strangers
I needed a change, but I wasn't brave enough
I needed a beer and a hug and a way out of the crater
I needed a change so we wouldn't fall out of love
I couldn't admit I was crushed by the weight of being strangers

Redondo Beach (Reprise By La Blogothèque)

(Patti Smith / Reprise by La Blogothèque)

Late afternoon, dreaming hotel
Just had the quarrel, sent you away
I was looking for you-ou, are you gone, gone

Called you on the phone, another dimension
Well, you never returned, well you know what I mean
I was looking for you-ou, are you gone, gone?

Down by the ocean it was so dismal
Women all standing, shock on their faces
Sad description, I was looking for you

Everyone is singing, girl is washed up
On Redondo Beach and everyone is so sad
I was looking for you, are you gone gone?

Pretty little girl, everyone cries
She was a victim of sweet suicide
I was looking for you-ou, are you gone, gone

Down by the ocean it was so dismal
Women all standing, shock on their faces
Sad description, I was looking for you

Desk clerk told me girl was washed up
Was small, an angel with apple blonde hair, now
I was looking for you-ou, are you gone, gone

Picked up my key, didn't reply
Went to my room, started to cry
You were small, an angel, are you gone, gone

Down by the ocean it was so dismal
I was just standing, shock on my face
The hearse pulled away, the girl that had died, it was you

And you'll never return into my arms
'Cause you were gone, gone
Gone gone, gone gone

Romantic Garbage

(Super Sad Generation EP)

You are the one I will base my romantic garbage on
You are the one, come on, dance with me
Make the most of the midday sun

I am digging your aesthetic
I look pathetic beside you
A little big magnetic
I wanna put my problems inside you
With your hair in your face
You be looking like a motherfucking rockstar
I could be your girlfriend
I could be your girlfriend if you wanted me to
Boom
If you wanted, if you wanted me to

You are the one I will base my romantic garbage on
You are the one, come on, dance with me
Make the most of the midday sun

If I fell in love with you
Would you bring me the moon?
Or some broken beer bottles and fresh war wounds?
I been looking at the way that you move
When the vodka's in you
Blue jeans and movies and skater boy shoes
Watch you smiling at me
Fuck, I'm smiling at you
But for now, let me make more songs to run away to

You are the one I will base my romantic garbage on
You are the one, come on, dance with me
Make the most of the midday sun
Said you are the one I will base my romantic garbage on
You are the one, come on, dance with me
Make the most of the midday sun

Come on, dance with me
Make the most of the midday sun

Second Guessing

(Sophie EP)

Eating Parma violets
On the way back from therapy
Bleeding out on a velvet couch
They're kinda worried about me

Do you remember
When you broke your arm
Tryna climb your way to paradise?

Try to keep it in
Pretend we got it all figured out
I've been cutting magazines
I think I'm burning
'Cause we're second guessing
We shout in the gallery
Trying not to disappoint my family

'Cause we're second guessing
We're second guessing

Yeah, in my stupid way, I wish I was five
Without the cigarettes and quiet goodbyes
I always bite my lower lip when I cry, yeah
I know you hate it when I say I wanna die
But I'll tell you something
I'm trying hard
To be the girl you kinda liked back in March

Do you remember
When you broke your arm
Tryna climb your way to paradise?

Try to keep it in
Pretend we got it all figured out
I've been cutting magazines
I think I'm burning
'Cause we're second guessing
We shout in the gallery
Trying not to disappoint my family

('Cause we're second guessing
We shout in the gallery
Trying not to disappoint my family)
'Cause we're second guessing
Second guessing
'Cause we're second guessing
Second guessing
'Cause we're second guessing
We're second guessing

Softly

I'm dazzled hard, we're in Berlin
And when you leave, just break it down to me softly
Well there's a frame, I'm shattering
I dip into the love we had with ease
Lemon and ginger beer, soap suds on navels
If I've upset you, could you maybe say so?
Has something changed, have I just missed the memo?
Tell me what I don't know
Oh won't you...

Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Oh, I forget myself, I don't want no one else

The pressure thuds behind my eyes
You look at me as if it's my fault that we're stood here
The cobalt of your scarf has pulled clear
Stealing me traffic cones, smiling at babies
I must admit I wanted you to save me
Now I'm sat on the ground, feeling half crazy
I don't want you to go
Oh won't you...

Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Oh, I forget myself, I don't want no one else

Oh, I forget myself, I don't want no one else
Oh, I forget myself, I don't want no one else
Oh, I forget myself, I don't want no one else
Oh won't you...

Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Oh, I forget myself, I don't want no one else

Sophie

(Sophie EP)

I talk to girls that sings about asphyxiation
Until their beer goes flat
I talk to girls that brings their switchblades to the function
And dye their buzzcuts black

Shut your mouth and take your vitamins
Bite your nails and sell your Ritalin
I feel like the world is on my back
Shut your mouth and take your vitamins
Bite your nails and sell your Ritalin
I feel like the world is on its back

I'm just a kid, I
Suffocate and slip, I
Hate that we're all sick
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm just a kid, I
Suffocate and slip, I
Hate that we're all sick (Yeah)

I'm blowing bubbles in the faces of thugs
I'm smoking licorice tobacco for lunch, yeah
I'm still denying that I'm anxious as fuck
And I'm lacking in trust and I think my art sucks (It sucks)
I look inside my head with disgust
I would say it to my mates, but they're probably drunk
So I listen to funk, I bend to the punch
Then pretend that I'm fine when, really, I'm crushed

Shut your mouth and take your vitamins
Bite your nails and sell your Ritalin
I feel like the world is on my back
Shut your mouth and take your vitamins
Bite your nails and sell your Ritalin
I feel like the world is on its back

I'm just a kid, I
Suffocate and slip, I
Hate that we're all sick
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm just a kid, I
Suffocate and slip, I
Hate that we're all sick

Stranger in the Night

(Future Utopia feat. Arlo Parks / 12 Questions LP)

Plant a kiss on my shoulder
In the heart of October
I wish that I had loved you with all I had

Should've balanced my ego
Kept my head, slowed my breathing
And left the purple flowers in your hand

Stop this heart
'Cause I don't need it
Take these lungs 'cause I've stopped breathing
You were everything to me
But now
You're just another stranger in the night
Just another stranger in the night
Just another stranger in the night
Just another stranger in the night

What was sweet now is bitter
Summer turned into winter
Now you're gone
Now you're gone

Stop this heart
'Cause I don't need it
Take these lungs 'cause I've stopped breathing
You were everything to me
But now
You're just another stranger in the night
Just another stranger in the night
Just another stranger in the night

Sunrise (Remix)

(MICHELLE Feat. Arlo Parks)

Couldn't ever be my sunrise (Sunrise, sunrise)
You're just a setting sun, I'd pray and you would pass me by
You're only looking for a good time, a body you could kiss on
Turn to you and you've moved on

You're my bright slice of diagonal heat
You're reading poetry and I'm making something spicy to eat
You disappoint me, but your necklace is an elegant green, it beams
And I know your skin better than all the leaves
Or the deep clean wounds in my soul, oh, no
I think I lost hope
Slipped dream, disc in my spine, it's all cold
I know I could do better, rise up in cold weathеr
Or maybe after summer, I'll still writе you letters, like

The Earth still turns and I believe
One day I'll fall into your gravity
I just took too long to see beyond this predetermined read
Empty hallways, calendar's months behind
Bed's too warm to leave
But I know like the sun, I gotta rise eventually

Couldn't ever be my sunrise (Sunrise, sunrise)
You're just a setting sun, I'd pray and you would pass me by
You're only looking for a good time, a body you could kiss on
Turn to you and you've moved on

It's sour this time
Many times I rode
Many times I'd spin and went so far for you
It's familiar and mild
You stretch me out, I still can't reach
Don't wanna need your company

You should know that the Earth still turns and I believe
One day I'll fall into your gravity
I just took too long to see beyond this predetermined read
Empty hallways, calendar's months behind
Bed's too warm to leave
But I know like the sun I gotta rise eventually

Couldn't ever be my sunrise (Sunrise, sunrise)
You're just a setting sun, I'd pray and you would pass me by
You're only looking for a good time, a body you could kiss on
Turn to you and you've moved on

Couldn't ever be my sunrise (Sunrise, sunrise)
You're just a setting sun, I'd pray and you would pass me by
You're only looking for a good time, a body you could kiss on
Turn to you and you've moved on

Super Sad Generation

(Super Sad Generation EP)

When did we get so skinny
Start doing ketamine on weekends
Getting wasted at the station
And trying to keep our friends from death
We're trying to keep our friends from death

And yesterday I heard you say
"Everything will sort itself if I get to L.A."

And oh, oh, oh
We're a super sad generation
Killing time and losing our paychecks
And oh, oh, oh
We're a super sad generation
Killing time and losing our paychecks

We're barking out, it's not hard to see
Drop three tabs quick in the back of the Prius
Rainbow crop top, Billie Jean
Might kill myself if you don't pick me
Prom queens brushing blood out their teeth, it's clean
Don't call me grieving for what we used to be
We're 17, just let it be
Drink some coffee, pretend it's the 60's

Yesterday I heard you say
"Everything will sort itself out if I get to L.A."

And oh, oh, oh
We're a super sad generation
Killing time and losing our paychecks
And oh, oh, oh
We're a super sad generation
Killing time and losing our paychecks
Yeah, we're killing time and losing our paychecks

Ta reine

(Angèle / Deezer InVersions)

Si seulement elle savait comment
Comment tu la regardais
Elle serait effrayée
Si seulement elle savait comment
Comment tu l'imaginais
Elle pourrait t'abîmer
Mais laisse, laisse le temps
Il pourrait vous donner une chance
De vous retrouver
Il lui faudra du temps, c'est sûr
Pour oublier tous ces préjugés
Mais tu voudrais qu'elle soit ta reine ce soir
Même si deux reines, c'est pas trop accepté
Mais tu voudrais qu'elle soit ta reine ce soir
Toi, les rois, tu t'en fous, c'est pas c'qui t'plaît
Si seulement elle savait comment
Comment tu l'envisageais
Même si t'es une fille
Si seulement elle savait comment
Comment tu pourrais l'aimer
Tellement plus que lui
Mais peut-être qu'un jour
Elle verra tout l'amour que tu pourrais lui donner
Moi, je crois aux histoires qui peuvent parfois
Bien se terminer
Mais tu voudrais qu'elle soit ta reine ce soir
Même si deux reines, c'est pas trop accepté
Mais tu voudrais qu'elle soit ta reine ce soir
Toi, les rois, tu t'en fous, c'est pas c'qui t'plaît
Mais tu voudrais qu'elle soit ta reine ce soir
Même si deux reines, c'est pas trop accepté
Mais tu voudrais qu'elle soit ta reine ce soir
Toi, les rois, tu t'en fous, c'est pas c'qui t'plaît

Tangerine

(Glass Animals feat. Arlo Parks / Dreamland + Bonus Levels LP)

As cold as an old ice cream sandwich
As focused as Mr. Miyagi
You poke at your phone posting aerial photos
Of you and your smoothie
I can't keep on making you happy
'Cause you got issues with your daddy
I miss ramen noodles and laughing at you
And your gran in home movies

But I wish I could show you more of yourself
I wish I could make you somebody else
But I left it way too late
Are you stuck in your own ways

I'm begging, hands, knees, please
Tangerine, come on back to me
Got what I need, Tangerine, do this for me
Hands, knees, please
Tangerine, sugar, honey, sweet
Got what I need, Tangerine

I wanna see you blooming like a tulip
With your hair dyed peach
I'm reading through your letters
I remember when you saw through me
And now within your pale blue eyes
There's nothing I can keep
I used to know the way you smiled
And how you liked your tea
Now you're spirited away
Catch a glint in the eye of the ghost that you are
It'll never be okay
You're a star of the past
Gonna miss that sweet little tangerine

Oh my God
Drop the beat

You've been dreamless and sleeping for years
Super clear since the late 1990s
You only look at me properly now
When you're drunk, watching movies
Where are you, what happened
I want what we had, where you gone, where you hiding
It's 2:23, you got Friends on repeat
On repeat, on repeat, on repeat, on repeat, on re-

I wish I could show you more of yourself
I wish I could make you somebody else
But I left it way too late
Are you stuck in your own ways

I'm begging, hands, knees, please
Tangerine, come on back to me
Got what I need, Tangerine, do this for me
Hands, knees, please
Tangerine, sugar, honey, sweet
Got what I need, Tangerine
Hands, knees, please
Tangerine, sugar, honey, sweet
Got what I need, Tangerine

I'm begging, hands, knees, please
Tangerine, come on back to me
Got what I need, Tangerine, do this for me
Hands, knees, please
Tangerine, sugar, honey, sweet
Got what I need, Tangerine

Track07 (Georgia Anne Muldrow Version)

(Georgia Anne Muldrow Version / Denzel Curry & Kenny Beats feat. Arlo Parks / Unlocked 1.5 EP)

Mic check, one-two, one-two
Eh-la-lo-le-la-lo-le-la-lo-le
I don't write rhymes, nigga, I write checks
Eh-la-lo-le-la-lo-le-la-lo-le
Now lemme turn this to the judge and thrown the book out
Then skew it on the barbie like a motherfuckin' cookout
This

Chef mad flavors
Bitches suck the energy, it's like a lifesaver
Shave it...
Eh-la-lo-le-la-lo-le-la-lo-le

My third eye's open, I feel absolutely free
Violence in touch with my own inner energy
I'ma get loose like a barbed-wire fence
It's the significant, never frivolous, mister
It's the...
Don't compute then I gots to reroute ya
I feel unblocked, vulnerable but brave
My soul displaced from a desperate space
I brace my arms for the blow, I know
The truth comes through lips from broken faces, potentials erased Lacerated, evaded
But now we've embraced it, we've finally made it

Swear to God
Naw, I'm like they ghetto
My dog, my dog talking 'bout, uh
You ain't get another nut
You talking all this mad shit, soon as you see, you freeze up
Like, shit

Watermelon Sugar

(Harry Styles / Deezer Sessions Live at Paris)

Tastes like strawberries on a summer evenin'
And it sounds just like a song
I want more berries and that summer feelin'
It's so wonderful and warm

Breathe me in, breathe me out
I don't know if I could ever go without
I'm just thinkin' out loud
I don't know if I could ever go without

Watermelon sugar high
Watermelon sugar high
Watermelon sugar high
Watermelon sugar high

Strawberries on a summer evenin'
Baby, you're the end of June
I want your belly and that summer feelin'
Getting washed away in you

Breathe me in, breathe me out
I don't know if I could ever go without
I'm just thinkin' out loud
I don't know if I could ever go without

Watermelon sugar high
Watermelon sugar high
Watermelon sugar high
Watermelon sugar high

Watermelon sugar high
Watermelon sugar high
Watermelon sugar high
Watermelon sugar high

Yeah, I just wanna taste it, I just wanna taste
Watermelon sugar high

Watermelon sugar high
Watermelon sugar high
Watermelon sugar high
Watermelon sugar high

What Matters Most

(Future Utopia Feat. Arlo Parks)

Hello
I just wanted to ask you
In your opinion
What matters most?

Making sure she knows I'm sorry
Pulling the perfect pint under the orange of the afternoon
Finding God
Folding the rage out of my own mouth
Finally why I always seem to break my own heart
Seeing the ocean for the first time, wind like diamond to the soft skin of my cheek
Giving up cigarettes
Forgiving my father
Making the last bus home, eyes wet, heart open to the quiet of the morning

You're The One

(Spotify Singles)

I want you to want me
But you just wanna love me for the day
And I can't just walk away
Even though I know you're trouble, babe
So I'mma take my time
Go with the flow, can't get too involved
You got a face that I
Just can't say no to, just can't say no to you

You know I want you, baby, you know I do
I'll give you my heart and the rest is up to you
You ain't no good for me, I know it's true
But you don't have to be

'Cause I do it for the thrill, for the rush
I do it for the pain, for your touch
Will I OD when it's too much
If I survive, baby, you're the one, you're the one
You're the one, you're the one

I feel like I'm walking
The tightrope of love in your circus, babe
If I were to fall, it'd be my last day
Even though you're right under me
So I'mma take my time
Go with the flow, can't get too involved
You got a face that I
Just can't say no to, just can't say no to you

You know I want you, baby, you know I do
I'll give you my heart and the rest is up to you
You ain't no good for me, I know it's true
But you don't have to be

'Cause I do it for the thrill, for the rush
I do it for the pain, for your touch
Will I OD, when it's too much
If I survive, baby you're the one, you're the one

You're the one
You're the one
You're the one
