Mother, dogs like me
Don’t like it when you
Look them in the eye
Grandma, snakes like me
Don’t like it when you
Try to shake their hands
I wish you knew
The things I went through
Every time we had a family meeting
I thought I was a loser
I though I was a freak
Setting up rules
My small ass didn’t understand
Now give me the hard
Give me the hard hand
Father, Butterflies like me
Don’t like it when you
Take them for a walk
Granddad, octopi like me
Don’t like it when you tell them
To toughen up
I wish you knew
The things I went through
Every time we had a family meeting
I thought I was a loser
I though I was a freak
Setting up rules
My small ass didn’t understand
Now give me the hard
Give me the hard hand
I know that you think that our childhood was good
But my brother and I were a pack of wolves
Mimicking sheep, kicking out teeth
And itch that won’t ease
Please
Little did we know
It was all the violence that showed
The church, the school, the sexism, classism, racism
The be quiet, be nice, be normal
The rush of our hormones
Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über.

I just started listening to this album today and am IN LOVE! Every track is perfect.
I'm slightly sad I didn't start listening to boygenius until but happy to be a fan of their music <3 lissie_a
