Name: soft
Duration: P00H03M33S
Description: this song is about trying so hard to hate someone who did you wrong. desiring a fiery confrontation but then completely melting every time you actually see them. i also wanted to convey this sense of being trapped by that person even though things are clearly over. like with or without them, you're just bound to them and that unconditional love supersedes all else.

lyrics

ignited every time i see your face
cause baby you’re the match and we together fan the flames
rifle through my long list of complaints
but when you come around my brain can only fire blanks

you make me so soft, babe
smooth me down to a paste
try to explode at your door
hesitate to detonate
said i can’t hurt you
anyways
you make me soft babe
so soft babe

even with my heart up in a cage
i can’t find the will to bend, can’t find the strength to break
the steel bars i need to liberate
instead i melt myself a little more to keep your pace

wish i wasn’t so soft babe
wanna be on the same page
wanna just blow it up
but misfire my malaise
wish you didn’t turn me so soft
so soft babe
so soft babe
so soft babe
so soft
