the chorus of this song raises my serotonin so high it's beautiful

[dankeroniandcheese]

she needs to play this at a tiny desk concert

Lyrics…ᘛ⁐̤ᕐᐷ
Between the gaps, I was swimming laps
Got close to some epiphany
I'll convince a friend to join deep ends
Have your toes touch the lack of cement

We'll gather to our corner of the woods
Echo chambers inside a neighborhood
In centerfold, humility's shown
You're not as good as what your mama's sewn

Aren't you glad that you reside in a hell and in disguise?
Nobody yet everything, a pool to shed your memory
Could you say you've even tried? You haven't called your family twice
I can hope tonight goes differently, but I show up to the party just to leave

Between the gaps, keep it under wraps
How I got to some epiphany
I'll convince myself when it turns to 12
The photos keep the sentiment

We'll gather to our corner of the woods
Echo chambers inside a neighborhood
In centerfold, humility's shown
You're not as good as what your mama's sewn

Aren't you glad that you reside in a hell and in disguise?
Nobody yet everything, a pool to shed your memory
Could you say you even tried? You haven't called your family twice
I can hope tonight goes differently, but I show up to the party just to leave

Pulling back, I tried to find the point of wasting precious time
I sip and toast to normalcy, a fool's way into jealousy
I mock and imitate goodbyes when I know that I can't deny
That I'll be here forever-while, I show up to the party just to leave

~ I've been scrolling forever trying to find the lyrics & no luck, so this is for me and anyone who needs it

[MrVrem]

OMG WHY DOES THIS FEEL SOO COLD AND WARM AT THE SAME TIMEEE

[anniee.]

this album is gonna hit everyone in the music industry. She's gonna become bigger and bigger, this is so much different than everything she has done before. Her music style is maturing, shes growing as an artist and im so happy.

[BrainHurtiee]

Hey, future clairo fans. You’ve got good music taste;)

[NATALIA-xyot]

this album is way too good, i will be passing away

[jonathanzhou]

Clairo makes the exact type of music that introverts love

[jazzmum]

My daughter plays this album a lot in my car; I continue to be struck by how masterfully it's produced. It's soft, simple in its complexities. It borrows generously from mid-to-late 70's/early 80's instrumentation: subtle Stevie Wonder keyboards, Fleetwood Mac/Lindsay Buckingham guitar licks, little drops of perfectly timed steel guitar (early 70's folk-rock (Buffalo Springfield, Eagles, early Linda Rodstadt)), even some nods to English folk-rock drumming/time (Sandy Denny/Fairport Convention). I'd love to learn more about the producer and studio musicians. Though this album pulls together so many influences from the past, the finished product is groundbreaking and unexpected. I just love it.

"Amoeba"

Between the gaps I was swimming laps
Got close to some epiphany
I'll convince a friend to join deep ends
Have your toes touch the lack of cement

Gather to one corner of the woods
Echo chambers inside a neighborhood
And centerfold, humility shown
You're not as good as what your mama's sewn

Aren't you glad that you reside
In a hell and in disguise?
Nobody yet everything
A pool to shed your memory

Could you say you even tried?
You haven't called your family twice
I can hope tonight goes differently
But I show up to the party just to leave

Between the gaps, keep it under wraps
How I got to some epiphany
I'll convince myself when it turns to twelve
The photos keep the sentiment

Gather to one corner of the woods
Echo chambers inside a neighborhood
And centerfold, humility shown
You're not as good as what your mama's sewn

Aren't you glad that you reside
In a hell and in disguise?
Nobody yet everything
A pool to shed your memory

Could you say you even tried?
You haven't called your family twice
I can hope tonight goes differently
But I show up to the party just to leave

Pulling back I tried to find
The point of wasting precious time
I sip and toast to normalcy
A fool's way into jealousy

I mock and imitate goodbyes
When I know that I can't deny
That I'll be here forever while
I show up to the party just to leave

[syafiq]

this is what we called angels falling from heaven

[TarisWRLD]

I don't care what the homies say. I will openly vibe to this with all the energy I got

Update: lost some homies but I can now happily vibe to Clairo

[ashish_]

Found a new artist!! Yay!!! She is awesome!! ❤

[gatitosdefresa]

Moment of silence for the future Clairo fans who haven’t yet found her

[khadeejashahzad]

"Aren't you glad that you reside
In a hell and in disguise"
Hits stronger than a lightning jolt. Beautiful song.

[e.t]

Someone I’m not that close with said that this song reminded them of me, and I think that’s the greatest compliment I have ever received.

[alves]

amoeba feels like two kind of things for me
1. white and yellow, sunflowers, picknick with your friends, natural juice and old movies

2. blue and purple at night, in a party with no worries, just vibing alone while all of your friends are having one night stand, loneliness being around of people

[unclebustard]

Jack Antonoff is incredibly underappreciated. He did an incredible job on the whole album, this song inparticularly is perfect. Probably the best producer of our time

[haza]

I didn’t hide the fact that I listened to Clairo from the homies I showed it to them and now we listen to her together 😎🤟🏼

[nikkibrrr]

wow uff okay but this jumpy piano and the 70s pointed funky guitar & bass and that absolutely groove-accelerating glissando somewhere around 2:50 and the overall melody and chord progression in this song all of this is so beyond i'm-
