“i wanted to be your woman i wanted to your man, i wanted to one you could understand” :( hits harder then ever i love this song so much. screaming crying throwing up
official version just sounds like the stripped down version of this, no flute, piano, guitar solo, and the changed lyrics/ tempo , they sound like completely diff songs lol love them tho very big thief thing to do keep the fans guessing
i kind of view them as two different songs, like it feels tough to compare them because i think they're both beautiful in their own independent ways. this version is much more heartbreaking and longing where the studio version is angry and resentful and they both hit so hard in their respective spots. i think it's a mistake to write off either version as being better or worse. just because the studio version is different doesn't mean you can't still listen to this one and love it! big thief as a band are always changing up the sound of their songs in ways that change how they're interpreted and i think that's so cool :-)
@@olive324 EXACTLY !! people always try to pick a side over which version is "better" but honestly they both have their merits, and are so different that it almost feels unfair to compare the two. yes, while the lyric changes in the studio version are a tad bit disappointing, no one is really trying to understand WHY they might've made those changes. one theory said that they wanted the song to feel more uncomfortable to represent the toxic relationship described in the song, and i think it makes a lot of sense !! honestly both versions are just so good, idc what anyone says lol
the mfs who begged for this to be released then complained about its final version are literally doing what the song says lmfao. yall realize ur spinning her around and then u ask her not to spin right
Lyrics -- Watching TV tired, bleeding on the bed The milk has just expired, all the leaves are dead I’m not quiet, you’ve been quiet, just receiving what you said Reeling feeding feeling filled by everything you fed I see you as you see yourself through all the books you read Overwhelmed with guilt and realizing the disease You give me chills, I’ve had it with the truth I am nothing, you are nothing, we are nothing but the proof I am empty ’til she fills Alive until she kills Under the vampire empire, I’m a fish and she’s my gills Falling, yeah Falling, yeah I see you there collecting all your earthly power Protecting and dissecting ’til you empty every hour We jump into the pond and then we come under the shower We lay upon my pillow and you open like a flower I wanted to see you naked I wanted to hear you scream I wanted to kiss your skin and your everything I wanted to be your woman I wanted to be your man I wanted to be the one you could understand You give me chills, I’ve had it with the truth I am nothing, you are nothing, we are nothing but the proof I am empty ’til she fills Alive until she kills Under the vampire empire, I’m the fish and she’s my gills Falling, yeah Falling, yeah ---------------- walked into your dagger for the last time in a row It’s like trying to start a fire with matches in the snow Where you can’t seem to hold me here, you can’t seem to let me go So I can’t find surrender, can’t keep control You turn me inside out and then you want me outside in You spin me all around and then you ask me not to spin You say you want to be alone and you want children You wanna be with me, you wanna be with him You give me chills, I’ve had it with the truth I am nothing, you are nothing, we are nothing but the proof I am empty ’til she fills Alive until she kills Under the vampire empire, I’m a fish and she’s my gills Falling, yeah Falling, yeah Falling, yeah Falling, yeah
this song brings me a very sad feeling, it seems like yesterday that I spent 1 month crying because of my other half (including Livia if you are seeing this know that I will never overcome you, after all you are insurmountable, you were the only one who made me feel loved and welcomed by someone, know that whenever you need to come home I will be here❤
hi guys it's me, kya soo about rhis commentary, i forget her and I fine now(but I still miss her)But I have one piece of advice for you: once your "home" starts to hurt, sometimes it's better to leave it behind!
I get that it’s not out yet so nothings final and it could be anything, but there’s just no way it’s “we are nothing with the pills”. This isn’t an anti drug song! It’s “nothing BUT the pills”.
Everyone's anti-drug now, the 2010 ironic DARE shirt-wearers have died, born again, and finally found their eternal resting place in nostalgic mixtapes. Welcome to now where it's cool to say drugs are bad.
REDBAR brought me here! Also watched their appearance. This is undeniably great music! It's music that i thoroughly enjoyed listening to despite my disagreeing with a majority of the ideological, political and philosophical stances. That tho, is the beauty.. music that can make you drop all views, beliefs, or stigmas attached to any type of genre, presence or style, and put your ego in the back seat for its entirety. Just feel the love, vibrations, and inspiration. Songs like these can even get you to learn something about subconscious/about yourself that you didn't know before. The way I enjoyed this song, is exactly what the art of music is all about!

i love this version. both version give off different vibes and it all relies on the flute. i miss the flute, but its honestly just as good without it. i do not care what you say, the version we got is perfect, just like this one.
