Society / Versuri What am I doing with my life? I feel like I should be hitting some kind of mark The man, the house , the car But it all feels kinda off Outside walking the streets at night Trying to get these fears out of my mind You don't know what it's like Trying to please people all the time I've always done exactly what I'm told But that ain't gonna work for me no more I blame it on Society Trying to tell me who I'm supposed to be Why they always gotta put these clothes on me The ones that care the most well they aren't even close to me I blame it on Society I need a break from this anxiety I just want someone to love me quietly For who I am for real and not for who I try to be I blame it on Society Sittin in a luke warm bath blowin bubbles, thinkin razor thoughts My body's achin I'm all alone I call you up and I cry for home But what is home anymore? What is this life we're looking for? I feel I want to make it known that I might disappoint you And I'm sorry if I do I've always done exactly what I'm told But that ain't gonna work for me no more I blame in on Society Trying to tell me who I'm supposed to be Why they always gotta put these clothes on me The ones that care the most well they aren't even close to me I've always done exactly what I'm told But that ain't gonna work for me no more I blame in on Society Trying to tell me who I'm supposed to be Why they always gotta put these clothes on me The ones that care the most well they aren't even close to me I blame it on Society I need a break from this anxiety I just want someone to love me quietly For who I am for real and not for who I try to be I blame it on Society Who can make a karaoke version of it?
She would do anything to please (keep it neat) She would do anything to sleep (keep it neat) She would do anything to breathe a full breath down But she’s stuck and has to carry it around She would do anything to leave but she keeps him near She would do anything for me yeah she keeps it sweet She’s trying her best to paint a pretty picture for all to see I just wish she’d believe She’s stronger than she thinks she could do anything she wants She could be so happy I will tell her so Piece together fallen dreams we’ll mend them easily You and your big heart girl will find the home it seeks You never thought it could be Different from what you know You never thought it was Something you could hold You won’t believe what’s on the other side You won’t believe what’s on the other side I’m gonna to meet you on the other side You’re stronger than you think you could do anything you want You could be so happy and I will tell you so Piece together fallen dreams we’ll mend them easily You and your big heart girl will find the home it seeks
Urrrgh 😭 So so beautiful Ainslie ❤❤❤ I’m absolutely loving the new EP! My Apple Music 2023 stats arrived yesterday and you’re in the top ten of my most listened to artists of the last year. I’m a fan for life. Thanks for sharing your art with us 🙌❤
I still can’t get over how agile her vocals are ❤❤❤ she’s so so brilliant. I remember when I first heard this song - I kept thinking I knew where it was going next and it kept surprising me. I love it. I’ve listened a million times now. ❤
After roughly 13 years of discovering and following you, you remain one of the most talented, graceful, sensitive singers and beautlfullest (Björk pun intended) songwriters! Mixed feelings about you not being in line with other Icons and Stardom when it comes to commercial success and exposure. Part of me thinks you should be there and you deserve it. Part of me loves the fact how much you do your own thing and obvs dont care about all that. I guess that part overweighs haha. Your music is there whenever I need it. I showed the Drive acoustic version to my bf last night and he literally stopped eating dinner for three minutes. Jaw open, fork in hand, taken away to that special place instantly. I could go on like that but will leave it with a Thank You Ainslie! And the hope to one day see you live around here! much love!
Beautiful. Really beautiful and a heart felt experience for the listener. What a lovely video to share to the world about what we gain as well as what we have to let go of. Thank you for putting such polished piece of work together.❤🧡💛💙💙💜🤎
Well, there's no need to analyze this kind of emotion 'Cause it comes naturally to me A simple case of feeling love and devotion So tell me tenderly I want to give my life to you I want to feel my blood run through you And, oh, I want to touch you Over and over and over again We've got two strong hearts We stick together like the honey and the bee You and me, we've got two strong hearts Reaching out forever like a river to the sea Running free I feel there's no need for compromising my reputation When you lead me astray I'm proud to be a part of this fascination When I hear you say I want to be there to guide you I'm going to feel my love inside you And, oh, I want to touch you Over and over and over again We've got two strong hearts We stick together like the honey and the bee You and me, we've got two strong hearts Reaching out forever like a river to the sea Two strong hearts
Hey Ainslie. Firstly, thank you. This really resonated with me - especially lyrically and the way it was recorded and shot all in one take. Goes to show, you don't need a big budget to hit the mark and make something poignant and beautiful. Thanks, on behalf of all those who focus more on their art than fancy gear! Richard.
An awesome cover. I honestly can't believe this doesn't have at least a million views. I think the juxtaposition of taking such a well-known 80s power ballad and stripping it back to the core really serves to highlight the loneliness of the digital age.
One of the saddest songs to hear and videos to watch when you've broken up with the love of your life... I've now learnt to sing and play this on the guitar in hopes of one day being able to sing it to her :( I can't imagine my life without her...
