About This Track

'Free' by Parcels is an Alternative song from the album 'Day/Night', released in 2021. The lyrics circle around fatigue, being worn down, and the edge of quitting, before wobbling towards an unsure closeness, “I'm deep in love”. The repeated admission that things have gone on long enough gives the track a tough, double-edged mood, part surrender, part stubborn attachment.

"Free" is a single by Parcels, from the album Day/Night, released 5th November 2021. The track is 5:28 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 4 articles about Parcels.

Lyrics

Free

We've been enough, we've seen enough
We've lived it up and had to stop
We're beaten up, we're beaten up
We're beaten up and had it tough
I'm near enough, you're near enough
We're at the point of giving up
We're giving up, we're giving up
We're giving up
I'm deep in love
Is it all that kind?
To leave a love
For a new taste
The scene of us, oh
With an old point of view
I need a lot
But never really knew
I feel this need
To be free
Can we feel
And be real?
I need your love
But can I breathe this time?
'Cause I see your love
In a new way
Am I deep enough, oh
To see through you?
I feel this need
To be free
Can we feel
And be real?
I feel this need
To be free
Can we feel
And be real?
I'm clearin' up, I'm clearin' up
I'm clearer to what happens, but
I'm givin' up, I'm givin' up
I'm givin' up and now it's time
For me to love, me to love
Once you see the need to love
A deeper love, a deeper love
A deeper love
I feel this need
To be free
Can we feel
And be real?
I feel this need

    They’ve tried on different versions of themselves across over a decade as a band, but the iteration of them on ‘LOVED’ feels like the truest yet.
