This is the third track off of Lush. Unlike her previously released singles, it’s the first song that sounds subdued and sadder. It’s almost like the sadness within the song has to be taken seriously and not painted over with major chords and heavy drums.
The lyrics describe a failing relationship,...
[Verse 1]
Oh, don't see you now
Wait, don't just give out
Move from your old house
The city can be so loud
[Hook]
Say what you gotta
Sleep in somehow
[Verse 2]
Lose sight of wherever you are
Do you know when you've gone too far?
If it's all ash and dust
Well, then I won't let you take me for a ride
[Hook]
Say what you gotta
Sleep in somehow
Leave things on speaking terms
And I'll see you around
It's all ash and dust
And I won't let you take me for a ride
And it's all over us
And still I won't let you take me for a ride
[Outro]
Who?
Who?
