GUYS HELP MEDD

I JUST ORDERED MY RECORD PLAYER BUT IDK IF I SHOULD GET THE LOST BOYS SOUND TRACK, SONGS BY ADRIANNE LENKER OR IGOR BY TYLER THE CREATOR

[noitsforthebetter]

The parallels in Adrianne Lenker’s album Songs never fails to destroy me. For example,

“I don’t want to be the owner of your fantasy, so just want to be a part of your family” (anything)

“And your dearest fantasy, is to grow a baby in me. I could be a good mother, and I want to be your wife” (not a lot, just forever)

The first song, anything, is gentle, it’s intimate. It shows the quiet parts of Adrianne’s relationship, her longing to stay and belong with her lover. Throughout the whole song she speaks of the intimacy of relationships and how this is what she was craving. She wasn’t this version of herself that her lover fantasizes about, and she never really will be. She just wants to be a part of her family, to be her wife.

The second song, seems to take place during or after the breakup. Adrianne has gone past the soft, quiet grieving that we see in the other song. Instead, she is taken over by desperation. She misses Indigo and what they had. She is willing to do anything to get it back. She mentions again this fantasy of Indigo’s that we see in anything. Adrianne doesn’t necessarily want a family or to be a mother, but Indigo does and perhaps this is the only way to get her back. We see her offer up a bargain. Let us go back to what we had, and i’ll be this version you wanted. I could be a good mother. She doesn’t want to be, but she will because she wants to be Indigo’s wife.

There is something just so inately sad about the use of the word could in this instance, the depths of her grief and desperation.

i wanna talk about not alot, just forever by Adrianne Lennker

BECAUSE OH MY GOD.

this song makes me cry about everything, everything.

(there are many was of perceiving this song, in this i go into how i find a relationship with this song being toxic also idk if this makes since)

like once i came home after listening to that song and started crying while hugging my pets, not alot just forever speaks so much to me as a lesbian a woman, and someone who always falls for people who dont give as much as i give but i continue giving just because they give me stability in life,

in the first verse, “Through your eyes I see a smile you bring to me to your joy I tether” a smile that someone used to own, now you want to get out of this someone and you try to take the smile you gave them so long ago and you pull and pull trying to get you smile back but your ultimately trapped in this toxic space.

Verse 2 “My dog barks wildly to protect my infancy from my ex-believer and I try to calm the wolf to remind her I am both still she tears at my sweater” I personally dont relate to this verse as much as i relate to others, one thing i do though connect to this is being a woman and a lesbian, “from my ex-believer i try to calm the wolf” makes me think of so much conflict between someone who is tocxic and someone who just wants stability, and the only way they find stability is in this toxic person.

Verse 3, “And your dearest fantasy is to grow a baby in me I could be a good mother and I wanna be your wife so I hold you to my knife and I steal your letter” “i could be a good mother and i want to be your wife” makes me cry everytime, this song and just those lyrics hold so much emotion. “so i hold you to my knife and i steal your letter” this is one lyric i cant decipher what it means, one thing i assume theres a connection is just a toxic relationship and wanting more to the point of giving yourself up to have all of them.

verse four, “So I bash around the house and the poison stains my mouth she comes, I let her and we share a paradise and I roll them once or twice can't get much better”, “so i bash around the house and the poison stains my mouth” in this lyric just like the other i see toxicity, say you find your loved one cheating and you completely distroy yourself trying to find out what you did wrong, that feeling never leaves you, it leaves a mark, thinking you are the burden, the one who did something wrong “so i roll them once or twice cant get much better” with the ‘poison stains my mouth’ line, its to the piont your scared for life, it stained you as a person and you cant get any better from what they have done for you, yet you cant stop coming back because-

“not alot just forever.” which to me means you will take not alot because of the ‘love’ you get from said person, “just forever” like you will stay forever because of that love you never felt untill this person came into your life and you fell first and hard but “and the poison stains my mouth” somthing happens and it scars you and the only person who will ever be able to fill that whole is the person who you trusted in the beginning but is now toxic and leaves you stained and cursed.
