My brain makes drugs to keep me slow A hilarious joke for some dead pharaoh But now not even the masons know What drug will keep night from coming                 There are so many tools that are made for my hands But the tide smashes all my best-laid plans to sand And there’s always someone to say it’s easy for me But I revenged myself all over myself There’s nothing you can say to me       You never held it at the right angle You never held it at the right angle Catch a catch a catch a catch a falling star But wash your hands of it Catch a catch a catch a catch a falling star Because you can’t hold it           (2x) Did they poison my food? Is it cause I’m a girl? If I puked up some sonnets would you call me a miracle? I’m gonna go where my urge leads no more Swallowed waist-deep in the gore of the forest A boreal feast let it finish me please Cause I revenged myself all over myself There’s nothing you can do to me        You never held it at the right angle You never held it at the right angle Catch a catch a catch a catch a falling star But wash your hands of it Catch a catch a catch a catch a falling star Because you can’t hold it You never held it at the right angle You never held it at the right angle You never held it You never held it You never held it oh... You never held it You never held it You never held it oh... You never held it You never held it You never held it oh... - - - - (2x)

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson explore les luttes intérieures de l’artiste face à ses propres pensées et émotions. Elle évoque la sensation d'impuissance face aux défis de la vie et à la difficulté de garder le contrôle sur ses choix. Les images de pharaons et de maçons soulignent un sentiment d'oubli et de désespoir, tandis que l'artiste questionne sa place dans le monde et les attentes qui lui sont imposées. Dans un contexte plus vaste, on peut percevoir une réflexion sur la place de la femme et les jugements qu'elle subit. L’idée de se libérer de ces attentes et de revendiquer son identité personnelle est centrale. La chanson mêle ainsi des éléments d'introspection avec des préoccupations sociétales, ce qui la rend profondément résonnante.
