This song is about loving somebody who can’t emotionally reciprocate. Being in love is exciting, but also often stressful. When the relationship is unhealthy or communication isn’t solid, it can be a really tumultuous experience. 

All of my most intense emotions tend to manifest in my music, and this is no exception. I channeled all of my codependent angst into this one. It was really cathartic—belting my head off about my unrequited affections. Hopefully you can feel the same release singing along. It also reminded me how much I love rapping. Expect more of that soon.

I’m shaking the limbs on every oak tree I thought that you might have been hiding in.

Lyrics:
[Verse 1] 
I’m taking a look upon the castle 
I built for you with rough and ragged hands 
Am I a slave or an apostle? 
Cause I can’t seem to stand 

I’m shaking the limbs on every oak tree 
I thought that you might have been hiding in 
Was it poetic or insipid? 
The way I feared it might have been 

Cause I’m 
[Prechorus] 
Stuck in a cage looking to gain your favor 
What can I say? What can I say? 
I’m carving your name into the nape of my behavior 
But lover know that every day 
[Chorus] 
I can hold you down 
You can pull me under 
You can claw my back 
Like I’m the last you’ll ever know 
I can hold you down 
We can roll like thunder 
You can pull me close 
We’ll make it last forever 
Past forevermore 

[Verse 2] 
I made the decision not to face it 
But that decision never got me much 
All of my echoes rang complacent 
So I hung up 

And now I’m 

[Prechorus] 
[Chorus] 

Your medicine honey—medicine honey 
Has been sending me to bed in the morning 
Better report it to a medic 
But it’s never distorting never contorting 
And I’m betting 
I’m inanimate in animals and annals it’s unanimous 

Art speaks and I’m planted on a planet with 
Weak knees when I speak of your features 
At least I’m appeasing a beast 
But I need what I need and it seems you’re my weakness 

So let me shriek you a secret 
Iterated by the queen bee keeper 
This hive is alive with a fervor 
Buzzing with the hum of the mind of the server 

It’s at your service 
Quite right that it’s not quite perfect 
Set alight by you—I’ll do right by you 
All night till we reach the surface 

[Chorus]
