How she uses "a pathetic" and "apathetic" on alternate verses... woman is a lyrical genius

[MsMrapplepie]

Girl, I need to see some music videos because this album is so goddamn legendary

[rad]

How far can you fall when you’re already down?

[infinitespikes]

I literally was feeling a combination of anger and depression. And then I wrote "I give up" in a Google search, not really intending to find anything, but just because I was just typing how I was feeling right at that moment. And then I found this song that literally broke down every single part of what I was feeling.

[MasterBuaha]

I think Caroline's artistic process in creating music is very impressive. She really does use her voice like an instrument apple sauce. Her stylistic diversity in terms of style and musical inspiration aesthetic is very refreshing and revives faith in music slightly above top 50 charts.

How can she sing an emotion so accurately?!? We stan a geniusss

[chewedupgum]

She always releases a lyric booklet when I'm feeling the exact emotion the song is projecting ❤

[tigerstripepudding]

I didn't find this album, this album literally found me

[ruven]

The sounds from 1:48-2:00 MURDER ME EVERY SINGLE TIME. WE DON'T DESERVE THIS ARTISTRY.

[jeaninearianne]

[rahim]

YAAASSSS MY FAVOURITE SONG OF THE ALBUM

[drodge]

This song is literally perfect. I'd forgotten about it till a few.weeks.ago when I was on a rd trip. This album is insane. One of the best albums ever

[randomvideosbymark]

This is absolute bliss!!! I really like your unique style and beautifully detailed tones as you flow through the ranges and an amazingly well written song!!!!

[-OSwords]

It's the production quality for me.

[michaelacosta]

Those lyrics hit so hard
"An apathetic kind of self defeat"

[stevee.]

Just discovered this artist. AWESOME. This is the jam!

[drodge]

If Caroline and haim don't go on tour at some point it's a crime. Hearing this and several other songs of hers with haim as the band would be epic. Those voices just go together

[StudyWithAyo]

Your music always makes my days better somehow 🥰🥰

[adameyeam]

Are you the fourth Haim? This is magic!
