Lyrics:
I was embarrassed when I knew who I was;
so wild and zealous, and overly down for the cause
I'm sliding under, diving back into clouds

We went running, you were leading me on
You lost your hope and I knew, it wouldn’t last as long
I think about it, I'll think about it in time

I know that you say I’m just another one
I won’t pretend you’re the best
I see what you want me to see
(Whatever we’re going to be)
And now I fall through your ceiling like you’re the only one, always the hardest to test

So why’d you want to make me lonely after?
Wouldn’t try to break what’s holding you back
We were on the hook to save you sinking, back when you liked that

Don’t you want to save your breath for nighttime?
Show me why it’s hard to come around
I know that you’ve been full with anguish lately, yeah, we were let down

I called your brother, he said we’re serving him soup
Broke down my door to reclaim a small part of his youth
Yeah you can hate me if it helps you get back

Another moment of impossible doubt
You wanted quiet but everything was just so loud
My memory’s fading, memory fading to red

I can’t play the game but I'm living like I won, taking it all on the chest
tell me I’m not on my knees
I’m dead in the water beneath
and you’re a sight to be seen and i’m falling undone
It’s getting harder to sleep

So why’d you want to make me lonely after?
Wouldn’t try to break what’s holding you back
We were on the hook to save you sinking, back when you liked that

Don’t you want to save your breath for nighttime?
Show me why it’s hard to come around
I know that you’ve been full with anguish lately, yeah, we were let down

Think I’ve done well, I waited on my soul
A weekend on pacific time, best O’ve ever known
Let’s take it on, I’ll take it on for you

yessss this is my fav scene in lord of the rings

[RealJesseONFIRE]

This song was playing in a restaurant while my wife and I were in separate bathrooms in a restaurant. Both came out like “what was that song??” Played it two dozen times that night. Absolutely no idea how this song didn’t blow up. Makes ZERO sense. This song is BANANAS. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[mikelomax]

I’m not surprised that Spotify said I listened to this song 400 times this year. It’s a shining star on a perfect album

[alceusrydan]

The alternate version hurts me more … 😢

[monutella]

This album has been on loop since it's been released. I cannot get enough of it, thank you for virtually holding my hand through some rocky waters with these relatable messages. Feeling thankful for the magic of Yumi Zouma <3

[weeewoot]

Such an addictive sound. Another great song... that will be on repeat for way too long.

[softie.]

Thanks Spotify for recommending me this song

[andrianus]

let the world hear more about this band :D

[victordelcastillo-chavez]

When my ex cheated on me with another ex of mine.. I was broken for so long. Hearing yumi zouma’s álbum made me feel like I wasn’t alone and has been on loop ever since. I love her music and always have since the first time I heard “the brae” some years ago. She’s come so far and it makes me happy to see.

[pedroweer]

All times that I listen any music of Yumi Zuma I like a lot her songs, but this never happened to me with any other singer.

[luissteere]

Discovered you guys a few years back and you guys don’t make bad music. Love that I can relate to most if not all your songs! Empire of the Sun changed my life late 00s and you guys got me late 2010s. Amazing

[YatharthRai]

This takes me back to before COVID, when I was getting drunk with my friends and blasting Yumi Zouma.

[jimbL]

Another belter from a massively underrated group

[kevinjohnston]

I still don’t know how they can come up with so many solid melodies.

[intsan]

I do really love Yumi Zouma music, it makes me high somehow.

[VladRagnaroso]

You has a beautiful face, and a beautiful voice, this song is amazing 😉

[THECHRISALX]

One of my favorite music videos and songs of all time. I cant get over it 💙

[JustinCherriman]

I really like the light and woods in this video. Lovely dresses and looking great Christie! The new album is getting played all the time and bringing comfort to these times.

[adhiantos]

Just the masterpiece we need in these times of isolation! Thank you for the wonderful video Yumi Zouma! Take care and stay safe everyone <3

[davidmonrrealjr]

Your band deserves more recognition. You guys are superstars!
