She performed the song live on KCRW and on Sofar Sounds, where she also played the acoustic guitar.
[Intro]
One, two, three, go
[Verse 1]
Bright as a star be the light strobing down on me
Suddenly I was free, let me go on these
Show I can cough, I can choke on this kind of smoke
Off went the switch
Love is soft, love's a fucking bitch
[Chorus]
Do I really need another habit like you?
I really need, do you need me too?
I believe it's gonna leave me blue
[Verse 2]
Bright as a star be the light strobing down on me
Suddenly I was free, let me go on these
Show I can cough, I can choke on this kind of smoke
On goes the switch
Love is soft, love's a fucking bitch
[Chorus]
Do I really need another habit like you?
I really need, do you need me too?
I believe it's gonna feel like new
