This is the first track of ivri’s album, “the theory of you”
This track uses erosion as a metaphor for depression and deterioration. She tries to escape the past, but it haunts her. She is falling apart.
[Verse 1]
There's a river in my bedroom
It's blue, it flows so nicely
But my chest is full of feathers
Moss and bird's nests grow inside me
If only I wasn't eroding
You could hold me and stop the cracks from showing
[Chorus]
If only
If only
If only
If only
[Verse 2]
It leaks from my ears
I hear comets fall, I fear
My room's electricity
There's too much light in here
I wish I'd done things differently
This water isn't clear (This water isn't clear)
[Bridge]
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
If only
If only
If only I wasn't eroding
If only
If only
If only I wasn't eroding
