in a different life, i feel it all
but in this one, i can only try
everything's opaque
i'm somewhere else
everyone here seems to understand
but i am only guessing
i feel small and useless
and i try to smile through it
if no one sees the way i am
then that's a comfort
but everyone sees right through me
those years were more real
than i could ever hope to be
my clarity is diluted
i don't know how i arrived here
i just float away
in a different world, i'm only a girl
but in this one, i'm a puzzle box
for everyone to solve
honestly i'm not that cool
i can't even summon demons
but i guess if you squint
i'm pretty much one anyway
i'm evil in the open
and nothing worse i'm hoping
i'm slime even to myself
and that's a comfort
but everyone sees right through me
those years were more real
than i could ever hope to be
my clarity is diluted
i don't know how i arrived here
i just float away
but everyone sees right through me
those years were more real
than i could ever hope to be
my clarity is diluted
i don't know how i arrived here
The content is mostly heavy as ever but the tracks are all catchy as hell and there's some pretty pleasant lo-fi/chiptune/pop-punk elements. This is the Black Dresses album you show your friends when you get the aux, if you're a coward. rykemasters
I have been listening to this album since the first half of 2022, and it is my favorite album ever. I never had words to describe how much I love this album. I could listen to it forever. Please, never stop making music. Your band and music mean so much to me. I love Black Dresses. rayreat
The debut full-length from noted game composer Megan McDuffee is slick and moody electropop with more than a hint of darkness. Plus vocals! Bandcamp New & Notable May 13, 2021
If you're dealing with some major damage, boy do I have the album for you.
I've been listening to it nonstop in the short time that I've known about it. It's painfully sincere, painfully relatable, and the vocal performances are absolutely hypnotic.
