Arlo ParksAbout
“Bluish” talks about feeling uncomfortable and claustrophobic in a friendship; Arlo Parks strives to convey this sense of claustrophobia through the music. The song is also inspired by a poem she quotes on Spotify’s Storyline feature for “Bluish”:
Blood warm,
wide eyed
and guiding my wrist.
You kno...
Bluish Lyrics
[Intro]
You held me
You held me so hard I went bluish
I resolve to set boundaries
I went bluish, I went bluish
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Post-Chorus]
Shouldn't have to
Shouldn't have to ask you twice
Shouldn't have to
Hey
I went bluish, I went bluish
[Verse 2]
You twist violets in my eyes
Always in my house just smoking
Drinking tea, collecting spines
Never had the chance to miss you
I never had the chance to miss ya
[Bridge]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Post-Chorus]
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

What did Arlo Parks say about "Bluish"?
I wanted it to feel very close. Very compact and with space in weird places. It needed to mimic the idea of feeling claustrophobic in a friendship. That feeling of being constantly asked to give more than you can and expected to be there in ways that you can’t. I wanted to explore the idea of settin...
