An article from killbeatmusic.com has a quote from Lowell describing the song. She says, “This song is very near and dear to me. Written at a low point in both my career and my relationship, it’s simply about feeling like you belong together and being forced to be apart, which I think a lot of peopl...
[Verse 1]
I wanna know what you're doing
I heard that work's been a nuisance
I miss the trees in Toronto
And I miss our place by the water
Don't know why I still make music
Why I gave you up to pursue it
It's still the same shit, it's still hollow
Still saving up for that condo
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, and Malibu's burning, yeah
And it's disconcerting and sad
But I'm slowly learning
That it's out of my hands, 'cause
[Chorus]
God is a fascist
And he holds all the cards
He brought us together
Just to keep us apart
And there's nothing more tragic
Than this thing that we are
I'm a hopeless romantic
Who didn't get the part
And God is a fascist
But he does have a heart
And I do believe
That someday you'll be here
Alone in my arms
Alone in my arms
[Verse 2]
Summer is finally over
But it doesn't feel like October
Your sweater's still hung in my closet
Thought I would wear it more often
The sun seems to shine here forever
I've learned to crave shitty weather
Something to make me feel human
Like LA ain't one big illusion, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
America's sinking
And I just keep drinking like it's my last
Done overthinking
'Cause it's out of my hands
[Chorus]
God is a fascist
And He holds all the cards
He brought us together
Just to keep us apart
And there's nothing more tragic
Than this thing that we are
I'm a hopeless romantic
Who didn't get the part
And God is a fascist
But he does have a heart
And I do believe
That someday you'll be here
Alone in my arms
Alone in my arms
