I'm an addict.
And I say this to myself.
I'm your future lover.
There's me. There's no one else.
You need someone to care for.
Hey, make that me.
And I don't mind trouble.
There's a static.
I wanna see light getting far.
Oh, get rid of the sound, and
gimme something more like a beating heart.
I need something to care for.
Hey, make that me you're after.
And I don't mind trouble
'Cause if the spirit won't come to me.
I go to it.
If the spirit won't come to me
I go to it, I go to it.
Let's take to this to the side stairs
where you favoured me once.
Ah, take my silhouette as self-light.
Don't make it disappear
I want it near-
Something to care for-
Hey, make that me you're after
And I don't mind trouble
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. dani_bloop

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). s. moxley
