No remnants this bliss is temporary
Turn our love into some sick trilogy
Thought it was done and over
I was searching for peace
But you swept through like nature
Changed the trajectory
Maybe it's time we recognise the flowers we are not
That we pretend to be
Mistake ourselves to be
Tracing the outlines of my sunken eyes
So burnt out from the light
Like the sweetness of my cherry pie
I can’t stop but I’ll try
Rewind the tape and show me all your scars
I liked you better being silly with your air guitar
Crying on my shoulder
This time I’ll let you in
You crawled under the table
And plead the fifth again
Maybe it's time we recognise the flowers we are not
That we pretend to be
Mistake ourselves to be
Tracing the outlines of my sunken eyes
So burnt out from the light
Like the sweetness of my cherry pie
I can’t stop but I’ll try
Your lips don’t taste the same you’re no longer mine
You’re not worthy of a fight
Like the sweetness of my cherry pie
I can’t stop but I’ll try
Some type of dream
(Yeah I still want you)
You interrupt my sleep
(But I still love you)
Torn at the seams
But I can’t seem to let you go

Dealbreaker

Meet me after dinner with your parents
Like it was any different
I wish you left halfway
Sneak out of the house again
If you can’t make it I would understand
At least I won’t be mad
And now you’re justifying
all the bad
decisions that you make
you blame it on everyone
All the reasons that you’re late
Burdened by the guilt
that we had
and the pain we never shared
But I surrender
we’re awful pretenders
Am I just a memory that you borrowed
If I don’t tell then they wouldn’t know
will we ever be together
i’ll still be reminded of you
It’s always hard when you have to choose
between me and another
Forget all of the ones you love
just question everything you’re made of
Is this where I stand?
Now I see what’s in front of me
Now I see what’s in front of me
Now I see what’s in front of me

Lucked Out
01:48

Dog on a leash
Still bit my knee
It hurts and I just tore my favorite jeans
Told you to bring
All the cups to the sink
This mess is making me a little weak
I’ve not found the words to say
I’m dull with dismay
Now I'm stuck here in the rain
I missed the train
Hold on to the breaks
I don’t wanna be here
Let it wash over me
Fought hard to keep my sanity
Lucked out essentially
What more can I be
Hopefully better than what's expected of me
Dog off the leash
Felt so serene
It’s like he never really needed it
Holes in my teeth
All of my cavities
It hurts and I want it all to be sweet

Friday Night

Friday nights and we’re sickened to the core
Drinking cheap liquor from the corner store
Are we just afraid of passing time
Everyday’s a mess it's all the same
Ears are ringing out trapped in cellophane
When will we start to feel alright
I wanna see you wear your heart on your sleeve
For once without deceit
Why can’t it be more
I’m tryna find my way out the door
Spent all of my pay cheque on a dress
Got so high I left it on a bench
Guess that I’m not going out tonight
Friday nights have made us such a fool
But I’d do anything to get my mind off you
There’s nothing left of me inside
I wanna see you wear your heart on your sleeve
For once without deceit
Why can’t it be more
I’m tryna find my way out the door
When will I get to where I wanna be seen
Still we're caught in between
Why can’t it be more
I’m tryna find my way out the door
No reasons left to stay anymore

Last Resort

I’m lying in my bed at night
Still thinkin about our kiss
Is it that I regret it
Maybe love ceased to exist
I’m scared to call but I really want to
Figure us out this time
Fallin asleep seeing you in my dreams
It’ll haunt me all my life
Just wanted you to know that its okay
That I know you'll forget me some day
And you will
But I’ll still be here for ya
Will I still get to kiss ya
There is only so much that we can say
That’s all our language can convey
Still we try
And I’ll still be here for ya
I can’t stop thinking bout ya
Staring at my phone again
Would you respond on time
Is it so much to ask of you
I feel so weighed down by the signs
I’m scared to call but I really want to
Figure us out this time
Fallin asleep seeing you in my dreams
It’ll haunt me all my life
Just wanted you to know that its okay
That I know you'll forget me some day
And you will
But I’ll still be here for ya
Will I still get to kiss ya
There is only so much that we can say
It’s all our language can convey
Still we try
And I’ll still be here for ya
I can’t stop thinking bout ya
Baby will you stay
Will you stay here with me
Baby its okay
I won’t stop you from leaving

Burn Book

What can I say
To all the people that i’ve burnt
Buried in the haze of my mistakes
Is it enough
'Cause I’ve been feeling a little rough
All around the edges
Giving in filing up to the brim
Sitting here quietly
Do you enjoy our strange formalities
Could you feed my uncertainty
Been dying to know you
With all that you’ve been through
For what its worth
my inhibitions
They don’t listen
Kept my reserve
But you left me with no explanation
I exist on another stage when you turn the lights back on
Bury my face in another escape
Soft in my gaze
I was busy when you came
Down to my apartment
You demanded
I drop everything
Had to look outside
You know I hate it when you cry
Does it have to end like this
With us feeling so down
Sitting here quietly
Do you enjoy our strange formalities
Could you feed my uncertainty
Been dying to know you
This time I will show you
For what it’s worth
I faked it so well
It’s like I never once
Felt content
I took the biggest bite
I’m destined for life
If I had paid attention to the stage that I fell on
Do I still play this game that I hate
Stripping down to the waist
Arms folded its tiring me out
Please just hold on to your breath
While you’re sinking to the ground
Stuck on my shirt like a stain
Curl my lip in disdain
Find me another
You’ll come around
When your feelings dissolve again
Burning into my face
Hotter than desert blaze
Find me another drought
Feelings aside
My truth has yet to come around

World Implode

Am I allowed to feel this low
When I haven’t seen the world implode
But I still feel it all in my bones
Everytime I accept defeat
I’m just a small town girl tryna live out her fantasies
Patience written on my face
Still I’m struggling to keep up with the pace
So why do I even try
Should I just accept defeat
But somehow I’m still kneeling into conceit
Hold on to the reason that you stay
We’re still picking up from yesterday
Hold on to the chase I’m runnin late
Said I’ll meet you at a different place
Unshakable desires so innate
So I made a list
Of the things I grew to hate
But will I ever learn
Does it hurt to never change
I’ve crossed out pages
But I’m still afraid
There’s something about you I just can’t understand
Is it weird though I try to I could never forget
Does it make it any easier for us to pretend
Is it weird though I want to I could never

Caught up in a feeling
Feels so real I can’t be dreaming
About what we are
I’m tired of what we are
Caught up in a feeling
Feels so real am I discerning
With who we are
I don’t know who we are
My heart’s experiencing changes
Must be the weather going through phases
Take all that you can
And leave me with no regrets
Always turned to look behind me
Just to know where you might be
I don’t understand
Why you called at 4am
Caught up in a feeling
Feels so real I can’t be dreaming
About what we are
I’m tired of what we are
Caught up in a feeling
Feels so real am I discerning
With who we are
I don’t know who we are
Are our thoughts made of plastic
Think its real until you crack it
Sound off the alarm
Mistakes made for love so temporary
Take a sip from the bigger pitcher
Finding ways to spill mine over
High up on a stance
She cried into her hands
Conversation ends
I don’t wanna hurt you
Please don’t call me back
Cus I don’t wanna hurt you

Alvvays has always been great, but with this album they took it to the next level. Every one of these songs is lodged in my brain now, permanently (in a good way).

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche.
