A short song in Cole’s perspective, and their response to Clémentine’s affection. Emotions are odd, and overwhelming… It was released in February 2024 but was taken down from platform and released again recently in a more polished form.
[Intro]
(It doesn't matter though, does it?)
[Verse 1]
It starts off slow, though you can't keep up
Feel your feet sink to the ground
It wants you here and it won't let go
Pull you deeper and deeper until you can't be found
Where do I want to be?
Either way you'll be there with me
I don't think that I could see
Oh! The seeds are growing inside
They want to be free
Mmm
[Verse 2]
If I crawl out, it leaves you hollow
I carry nothing but the breath I borrow
Let it hurt, it won't end until you say it should
(It's never up to me, silly!)
Pluck my eyes, cut my hair
Break my teeth until it's fair
Let it bleed
Let it dry
Let it be
(Let it be)
[Verse 3]
It won't get easier
If that's what I think
Slow as the gravel rumble beneath the leathers
Tearing what it could cling to
Scatter
Scatter
They
They do
(Laughter)

Cole’s Response is not a love song
As Colentine cannot be narrowed down to ‘romance’, for that is not the core of their lesson. They are not “dating”, just children expressing fondness. There was nothing sweet about this song when I first wrote it. The feeling of suffocation. But then I found that...
