Holocene (Lyric Video) ft. Weyes Blood

The official lyric video for Zella Day’s “Holocene” ft. Weyes Blood.

“These days it seems music is the only superpower I can count on to protect me from the threats that lurk within the complete unknown. If hope were a paper airplane and shot into the sky I grabbed it with my hands as it was floating by and unfolded the paper to absorb the contents inside. “Crazy Train” was scribbled at the top of the page and when I looked to see what the words were that were bleeding through from the other side of the paper “Holocene” was there sitting with her legs cross waiting to be sung. There was laughter in the room when the songs were made, tears being shed on the other sides of the walls, but I’m not going to sit here and pretend that I didn’t cry in the studio too. We’ve all needed a refuge this year, this is a glimpse into mine.” - Zella Day

“Holocene”:

Lyrics:
Hot water
Hot summer dreams
Hot temperatures
I see it on strangers

Any day now my phone will ring
I’ll be on an airplane
with my socks in my carry-on

I’m mad at the weather
It’s wrong for the time of year
The start of September
So what does your gender reveal

I go on
And you go on
Time forgets no one
Never grows tired
Burns like a fire

I miss San Francisco
My friend is in college there
She doesn’t come back much
About once a year

And in Colorado
The sun has been beating down
On the morrow was snow fall
Scaring the people in town

I’ve read on the freeways
Now that it’s in the air
Please won’t you stay at home
But for many that’s nowhere

Do you go on
Do they go on
Time forgets no one
She isn’t a liar
Time is a fire
Time forgets no one

Time forgets no one
Time forgets no one

This came out the morning of a long road trip I was taking and I listened to it and "Something to Believe" by Weyes Blood on repeat. I bet 50% of the Spotify streams on this song are by me.
