Willow

WHY?

From <COPINGMECHANISM>2022

Written by Asher Bank, Chris Greatti

Lyrics

WHY?

I don't wanna keep feeling alone Isolation got me going psycho I just wanna, I just wanna stop asking myself why I don't wanna keep being alone Isolation got me going psycho I just gotta, I just gotta stop questioning my life

Don't know what's true My mind's talking shit, throwing fits All the layers peeling back for you You knew I was scared, but you weren't there Don't talk about it, talk about it

Can't grieve now for you, I'm focused All you gave me was a hole in My heart, now it's a scar And you don't even care And you don't even care

And you don't even care And you don't even care And you don't even care, no

I don't wanna keep feeling alone Isolation got me going psycho I just wanna, I just wanna stop asking myself why I don't wanna keep being alone Isolation got me going psycho I just gotta, I just gotta stop questioning my life

There's no time for fight-or-flight (fight-or-flight) Think I'm gonna freeze, no peace in my head Instead, I'm faded, finding new heights (finding new heights) Swaying with the trees, angels speak to heal the weakness In my heart, I don't even know where to start or when to stop I said, "No time for fight-or-flight" I think I'm gonna freeze

And you don't even care And you don't even care And you don't even care, no

I don't wanna keep feeling alone Isolation got me going psycho I just wanna, I just wanna stop asking myself why I don't wanna keep being alone Isolation got me going psycho I just gotta, I just gotta stop questioning my life

Willow on Dork

flowerovlove's 'American Wedding' video features cameos from WILLOW and alemeda

The singer joins Niall Horan's UK arena run later this year

WILLOW: "I want to challenge myself"

Willow ditches genre-hopping for a funk-fuelled exploration of self-love on ‘empathogen', an album bursting with new-found confidence after a cathartic rock era.

It looks like Willow and St. Vincent have been in the studio together

Smith has shared a photo from the studio featuring the singer-songwriter, sparking speculation that the two artists have been collaborating on new music.

Willow Kayne has collaborated with Toddla and General Levy on a new single, ‘Mr Universe’

The experimental tune is her fourth single of the year, following February’s ‘Playground Antics’.
