A song about unrequited love. You know the feeling: you fall for them, but they were really hoping that you wouldn't...
Lyrics
Oh no, I no Here we go Just say no It’s all a lie Hated, waited Commiserated It’s all a lie I’m not Your brother A love like No other It’s all a lie Fated to Break it Here’s my heart Just take it It’s all a lie It’s all I had For good or bad It’s all I gave It’s all I had to give Whisper the words Incur the curse Brace for the worst in me As I atrophy
Recording Notes
Definitely a heavy Smashing Pumpkins influence on guitars for this song. I leaned into that. It is a challenge to play, actually. It involves dropped-D tuning, and starting with your middle finger rather than your index, so you can quickly jump to the little licks that follow the chords.
It is also fun to jump from clean to heavy so frequently.
