1980s Horror Film Lyrics
[Verse 1: Braeden]
She, was only seventeen
Oh, why are girls in songs always seventeen?
She, was from a movie scene
And now she plays in my head all day
[Chorus: Braeden]
She called me up
And let me in
I couldn't feel my legs
She walked me back
Into her room
But just to see
A 1980s horror film
[Verse 2: Braeden]
I, oh, I was so scared
She had the curtains down so there was no glare
She pulled up a chair, and gave me the bed
And all these crazy things went through my head
[Chorus: Braeden]
It seemed so long
I need someone
I don't know what to say
She was sitting there
I could touch her hair
But still we watched
Her 1980s horror film
[Bridge: Braeden]
Jamie
I don't know what to say to you
I feel you're always on my mind
And now that I know what I need
I'm taking the long way 'round
In my mind
It's not right
I can't help the way I feel anymore
And I need to
Ask you, Jamie, oh
Can it be that you feel this way too?
[Chorus: Braeden]
The lights were off
The mood was right
She came and laid with me
I looked into her eyes
And tried to make her mine
But then she said:
"I'm really not that into guys"
[Outro: Braeden]

Braeden answers this question in an interview with Variance:
“Technically I did. In my room, randomly out of nowhere. I was thinking about “Norwegian Wood” by the Beatles and that guitar riff; this song has that similar song structure and I wanted to write the story in way that it starts to unravel...
What did Wallows say about "1980s Horror Film"?
That song came together pretty quickly one day writing, so that’s how it started. The production of it though, we never really knew which way to take it. There was an acoustic way and a more dreamy alternative way sort of like Alvvays. We ultimately decided in the studio to go with the acoustic vibe...
