I crumbled mountains under my feet
I took to the sky carelessly
And when I got nowhere I fell to my knees
Faced with face I swear this isn’t me
I’ve no idea who this imposter could be
And there’s no way of knowing so carry on growing at least
We’re chasing laughter, pasting up the fractures
And I know I can’t match up to her
So I’ll be this for you if you want me to
And I’ll love you endlessly
If you can pretend to love me
You left to go chase my dreams
I applauded louder than I screamed
And that’s the way that it should be
We’re chasing laughter, pasting up the fractures
And I know I can’t match up to her
So I’ll be what you need even if it kills me
And I’ll love you endlessly
If you can pretend
If you can pretend to love me

One of the most heart-wrecking, redemptive, perfect albums I've ever heard. Every time I play it I feel like I've been dismantled and rebuilt. And I do it again and again. Patrick

I just started listening to this album today and am IN LOVE! Every track is perfect.
I'm slightly sad I didn't start listening to boygenius until but happy to be a fan of their music <3 lissie_a
