Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd

[honeymoon is alive 15,002]

love me until i love myself 

[The Grants 13,003]

love me to death

fuck me until I fuck myself

DON'T FORGET ME 

[King of Saigon 1,384]

I AM SO OBSESSED WITH THIS VERSE 
“Harry Nilsson has a song, his voice breaks at 2:05
Somethin' about the way he says "Don't forget me" makes me feel like
I just wish I had a friend like him, someone to give me five
Leanin' in my back, whisperin' in my ear, "Come on, baby, you can thrive," but I can't” 

[marryingkind 2,491]

Guys, serious question: what does “give me five” means?

Literally. Her songwriting in this song is incredible and I can’t wait to see this continued throughout the record!!

Also love that on her note she Mentioned Jon Batiste as someone she became really good friends with recently. It made me really happy hearing that they are more than just collaborators

I thought so, but i was afraid that I was losing some cultural/linguistic reference 

[house of balloons 12,770]

fuck me to death

[DCooper 34,552]

The fact that she says fuck me to death so many times in such a sad thoughtful song and makes it work is wild 

[ultrabanisters 36,996]

Either a high five or five minutes for that little pep talk “Come on baby, you can thrive.”

[DCooper 34,552]

don't forget me like the tunnel under ocean boulevard 

[UltraviolenceMike 1,252]

My favorite part of every era is figuring out what she says. Is she saying “sounds that floated out” or “sounds like Florida” bc I’ve seen both. Apple Music it says floated out but genius says Florida. 

[Poor Stacy 11,993]

Wow. The lyrics are sadder/more complex than I thought. Comparing herself to the lost tunnel, feeling like she's stuck in a cycle of being used and forgotten, how she deeply desires true love, and wants to be seen, but feels like no one wants to get to know the real her, how perhaps her relationships have meant more to her than her partners. There's so much emotion in this song, and don't even get me started on "Don't forget me..." repeated throughout. My heart.

no i didn’t know. where’s ocean blvd
