being in the time zone i’m currently in meant that i woke up just as the first polls were closing. i watched anxiously, while trying to go about my day as usual, as he consistently held the lead both in the popular and electoral vote. while not surprised, i immediately began to mourn for those whose lives will immediately be affected by the unfortunate outcome of this election. all i knew to do was to try to offer the tiniest bit of hope to them, to all of us. i know it’s not much, but working on this helped me keep sane (?!) throughout this tragedy. here is my ‘election anxiety/america is over edit’ of beyoncé’s 'formation'.

all we can do right now as we look hate in the face is respond with love. channel your anger, your sorrrow, all of your confusion. for good. stay safe, but offer a loving hand. mobilize.

FORMATION (ELECTION ANXIETY/AMERICA IS OVER EDIT)

revenge of a pissed off ex. fuck valentine's day, basically.

lyrics
[verse 1]
We were lovers for no reason
I try to justify my lonely motives
Know you've seen behind the curtain
Never spoke a word you saw worth quotin
If we're just lovers for a season
Lean in closer, and we'll spill our secrets
So when you commit your treason
I'm not surprised

By all of the lies that you told me to keep me inside
Waiting for love you could never provide
Down on my knees at the side of your bed
You're all up in my head
Shoulda never confided in you
Just tell me the truth
Just show me the places you think that we're going
Sayin' you love me, I wish you would show it
Sayin' you love me, I wish you would show it

[verse 2]
You tried to hold me down when I was up
Pressed into my wounds, when I was cut
Can't stand this hate you're displayin'
Fuck is you sayin'?
Watch how you talk to me, breath 'round me, walk with me,
Lovin' me, touchin' me, can't get enough of me
Like how you talk when you get a little rough with me
I know it's just you and all of your anger
Watch you dissolve, now you feel like a stranger

[interlude]
You feel like a stranger
You feel like a fucking stranger
And you haven't seen the half of me
I'll show you what revenge looks like

[outro]
I'll show you what revenge looks like
I'll show you what revenge looks like
I'll show you what revenge looks like
(Strap it on, strap it on, strap it on) x3

I'll show you what revenge looks like
I'll show you what revenge looks like...

Lovers (Revenge)
