“Lullaby,” is focused on the beginning of an important yet equally complicated relationship. The song is defined by its waltzy, lo-fi beat and wavy synth pads, inviting listeners into UMI’s constructed, dreamy landscape. Her voice complements the instrumental with grace. By the chorus, she sings, “...
[Verse 1: UMI]
I know you're hurting, you're hurting inside
Know when you feel it, you feel it at night
Why won't you let me in?
Why won't you let me understand you?
Why won't you let me in?
Baby, just take my hand and
[Chorus: UMI]
Can you let me sing you a lullaby?
And maybe then you'd let me in tonight
[Verse 2: Yeek]
I've been cooking up a playlist
'Cause I don't know how I could say this
If love was a subject in school
Couldn't major in communication
Feelings (I don't want 'em)
They won't show
But when it's time to sleep
You get emotional
[Chorus: UMI]
Can you let me sing you a lullaby?
And maybe then you'd let me in tonight
[Outro: UMI]
Bought a bouquet
When will you try
To be okay? Mmhm
Bought a bouquet
When will you try
To be okay? Mmhm
Bought a bouquet
When will you try (Try, when will you try?)
To be okay? (To be okay) Mmhm
Bought a bouquet
When will you try? (To be okay, okay) Mmhm
