this is so beautiful, i keep coming back to hear it every day. possibly one of my favorite songs you’ve released :)

i listen to this at least 12 times per day 

I'm spilling red wine on my bed
I'm taking photos and hitting send
In the blue light glow
At 11:59
Mmm
And my glass broke at the stem
I'm soaked in cheap merlot again
As the world keeps on spinning
Just outside

At midnight
The comedown is quick and cruel and light
Another year settles heavy over me
Over me
What is 21 good for?
Other than a pass through the front door
To all the shit I've been doing since 18
18
"Good thing you've got a sense of humor"
I say to myself in the mirror
Mmm
Happy birthday to me

In the morning I'll go for a drive
And pretend to know why
I'm throwing punches
At my scrappy self-esteem
Mmm
I say to my mom, "I'm caught in the crossfire,
I'm teetering on the tightwire"
She says,
"It was never meant to work out perfectly"

But in all my dreams
Everything is clear-cut and clean
And when I speak I say exactly what I mean
I mean
What is 21 good for?
Other than sneaking through the backdoor
And blowing out the heavy smoke screen
Smoke screen
"Good thing you've got a sense of humor"
I say to myself in the mirror
Mmm
Happy birthday to me

What have I been doing my whole life?
Idly sitting by
Waiting for something to happen to me
Mmm
I never was a go-getter
But I'm trying to do better
Hold hesitation to the flame
And let it burn entirely
Let the ashes point me north
To what I'm looking for

At midnight
The comedown cuts through me like a knife
One more year settles heavy over me
Over me
I guess 21 is good for
A hard shove out the door
And making me question everything
Mmm
"Good thing you've got a sense of humor"
I say to myself in the mirror
Mmm
Happy birthday to me

this is a little song about seasonal depression, comparison, relationships, love, the seasons - you name it, it's about it
in all seriousness it hits on all of those things a little bit but I'd love to hear what you all think, including your own interpretations of the song. dm me on instagram @_lianglawrence or pop me an email alianglawrence@gmail.com :)

scared of my piano, it knows more than i know. every time i sit down to write, i always end up crying. something 'bout a minor key,  i swear it's got a spell on me. all my secrets just pour out when i just wanna shut my mouth. but it's the only place that i feel safe, steers me clear when my head gets hazy. it's listening when no one else is. everything i am in these old ivory keys, they understand me. i'm scared of my piano, it knows stories only i know but i'll never leave it's side, and it will never leave mine. something 'bout a minor key, makes me think of you and me but it tells me it's alright, it just wasn't the right time.

when u wash ur hair

iris- phoebe bridgers and maggie rogers

are we flesh and bones,
are we just a dream?
are we lost or found,
or in between?
will we ever get where we wanna be?
did we invent heaven to keep us in line?
like the stars and the moon are the ones telling time,
nothing could stop me from wondering why,
but you’re one less question,
does the sky get tired or holding our prayers,
or do they even make it up there?
even if i could see behind the curtain
maybe the knowledge would be just a burden,
still wouldn’t stop me from feeling uncertain,
but you’re one right answer
that never keeps me guessing
some understanding,
you’re one less question

one less question,
you’re one right answer
you’re one less question

one less question - lennon stella
