Jenn Alexander - Curly (single)
Текст с Bandcamp’а:
“For the first quarter century of my life, it was straight
I was content to reside in the lines
That framed the world around me
You could run your fingers through my hair
And they would slide right through
And after you did, you would’ve thought
That kid is as sweet as her perfume
But then one night the rain came down
And soaked me to the core
When the rain let up, I look up and realized
It’s not straight anymore
I’ve gone- curly
Because straight doesn’t fit who I am anymore
Life is more twisted and complicated
Than anything straight is good for
It’s harder to tame but there’s something to gain
Waking each day to a different view
Straight may be pretty
But curly is beautiful too
Don’t try to pin me down
Before everything changed, if you asked me to say
Why is life so good?
Would’ve looked in your eye and said
Well I’m doing everything I should
It’s a curious fact, when left intact
That love is truly blind
But the blinders it wears aren’t always the pairs
We had in mind
‘cuz in hindsight, that rainy night that
I wanted to flee (flee)
Gave me the curls in my hair
And the ones that I wear, deep inside of me
Don’t try to pin me down
