about
"This song came about while living at my apartment, finishing college online and reflecting about the present, past and future - thinking about life phases, love, friends, cats. I figured that no matter what phase of life you’re in, you’ll always have yourself, and that relationship with yourself is incredibly important and is often overlooked.”
lyrics
Only you
Always wanted to flee until now
You’d stick with placing your bets
Shuffling through some plans
Getting back on the highway ramp
A field of clovers grew right outside ya
You got to picking the ground
Saying the view was grand
With a bundle of weeds in hand
Scanning all the stones
With wider eyes
But still who knows why I still cry
Roads and runners are crowding up now
They’re meeting me with a grin
Flowers without a vase
I’m only loving a cat these days
Never wanted to hold or be held
You’d just avoid it and jet
Leaving the pots outside
Forgotten now rust resides
Aiming to drown
But waded out up to your knees
Careful to call a flimsy world a wicked scene
Only you
Only you
Only you
Only youuuuuu
Scanning all the stones
With wider eyes
But still who knows
Why I still cry
You’re scanning all the stones
With tired eyes
They’re glass and mirrors for your life

A lovely addition to the best project of 2023, that at some points feel like B-Sides, but is overall just as strong as the work that made it on "the record" Outer Estate
Alvvays has always been great, but with this album they took it to the next level. Every one of these songs is lodged in my brain now, permanently (in a good way). s. moxley
