Lyrics

Bud

Holding it close this time
Tell me I've heard, I'm fine
You'll never know what you do to me

All that we have won't grow
Falling is hard, I know
You make it so easy, believe me

And it's on my mind and I'd like to talk things through

And you're on my mind though I know I'll never do

Holding my tongue, it's real
Tell me the truth, I'll heal
Taking it slow before you go

And it's on my mind and I'd like to talk things through

And you're on my mind though I know I'll never do (on my mind)
And it's on my mind and I'd like to talk things through

And you're on my mind though I know I'll never do for you

You're all that I want and more
I'd say but I know your sound
I wish I could be someone you need
You need

And it's on my mind and I'd like to talk things through

And you're on my mind though I know I'll never do (on my mind)
And it's on my mind and I'd like to talk things through
And you're on my mind though I know I'll never do for you
Do for you

    Fenne Lily: Life's a breach

    Fenne Lily has accidentally made a record that’s very on-the-nose for 2020. Before anyone had even muttered “oh my god, what does self-isolating mean??” she holed herself up to pen an album that focuses on loneliness and mental health.
