When I wrote this song, I was kind of imagining a disney movie. So she (the Disney Princess) is walking and singing - because Iâm often making movies in my heads - in my headS! Thatâs the problem! In my head. And I think about imaginary things. And with this song I was thinking about this prin⊠but not the new version of princesses, theyâre annoying. The old ones, when they were brunettes and not blondes. So she is walking and singing âmais lâamouuur fait ce quâil veuuuutâ because there is this prince who comes and goes and she has to let her hair grows and itâs fucking annoying, she has to wait for 200 years, theyâre getting married, theyâre divorcing, theyâre getting married, theyâre divorcing, like sheâs the girl next door. Anyway, sheâs in her tower, she puts her head out of the window and is like âfaiiit ce quâil veut de moiiiiiâ and itâs at this exact moment that some birds arrive and begin to sing âlâamour lâa lâa lâamoooourâ ! And every time I sing, in arenas, in huge places, every time I sing this song even at festivals I just think âIf only people knew that in my head there are little birds singing!â
I feel like parents donât really understand how much pressure we put on ourselves they always make sure that there isnât a second where we can rest...
âBut I donât want small talk. Text me, and without saying hello, tell me why you got so angry at your sister this morning. Tell me why you have a scar shaped like Europe on the left side of your neck. Send me paragraphs about the time you spent at your grandmotherâs house that one summer. Call me when Iâm half asleep and tell me why you believe in God. Tell me about the first time you saw your dad cry. Go on for hours about things that may not seem important because I promise that Iâll be hanging on to every word you say. Tell me everything. I donât want someone who just talks about the weather.â
â This. Yes this, is the very thing I love about humans. (via amargedom)
