lyrics

i know you better now than i ever have before
I know you better now that our clothes are on the floor
and i had started shaking when you walked in through the door
but i’m not scared anymore, i’m not scared anymore

and i’ve never felt more alone with your arms around my shoulders
but i know if you left i’d cry myself to sleep praying that you’d hold me closer
but i see your face in the lamplight
and suddenly i don’t wanna die, i don’t wanna die

and i don’t need to be happy anymore
i just need to know that i’m yours
so will you tell me that i’m yours

you sleep so deeply cause you hope you won’t wake up
but i tread so lightly cause i’m scared you’ll self destruct
and i know that we’d go up in flames but i can’t help myself
cause i’d die if i knew you found safety in the arms of someone else

and i don’t need to be happy anymore
i just need to know that i’m yours
will you tell me i’m yours
that i’m yours

Ethel has been one of my fave artists of the last couple years and while I think this EP isn't as strong as Inbred or Preacher's Daughter, Head in the Wall makes me feel like I'm dying (in a good way I promise) and it deserves to be in my little magpie collection big suit david byrne
