You know, they call me the night queen
'Cause I live in the dark
And I don't let nobody near me
And I betray my heart
And I'm addicted to freedom
Well, honey, what good will that do?
Living this lonely life
So separated from you
And, oh, if the world can't find me, oh
I'll leave it all behind me
So tired of running in a pack
I left my home, I can't turn back
So tired of running in these escapades
They got me living up on esplanade
And, oh, if the world can't find me, oh
I'll leave it all behind me
Spoken (Ocean Vuong):
As a species, as life on Earth, we've been dying for millennia
But I built an energy device
It's transformed
Oh, if the world can't find me, oh
I'll leave it all behind me
Oh, if the world can't find me, oh
I'll leave it all behind me
'Cause I live in the dark
And I don't let nobody near me
And I betray my heart
And I'm addicted to freedom
Well, honey, what good will that do?
Living this lonely life
So separated from you
And, oh, if the world can't find me, oh
I'll leave it all behind me
So tired of running in a pack
I left my home, I can't turn back
So tired of running in these escapades
They got me living up on esplanade
And, oh, if the world can't find me, oh
I'll leave it all behind me
Spoken (Ocean Vuong):
As a species, as life on Earth, we've been dying for millennia
But I built an energy device
It's transformed
Oh, if the world can't find me, oh
I'll leave it all behind me
Oh, if the world can't find me, oh
I'll leave it all behind me

6". I can see it growing on me possibly.
Did a double take there after glancing at the album cover then skimming the page.

hate to say it but it sounds better when not looking at the album cover. like her wiki pic - just call yourself teenage attitude
I'm open for a second listen - start with "6". I can see it growing on me possibly.

I know you guys like this and I respect that, but it still doesn't connect with me.

Really strong emotional hook. Feels genuine...which these days seems more and more important.

Nice, you got first comment. I have to disagree though, it kinda moved me. So many of our fellow people are on the move now, moving from violence, poverty, evil men. The song struck a chord with me, but then again I'm a bit of an amateur when it comes to music, poetry, philosophy and what not, so not sure I have much standing. Also, I love the word meh.

Great attitude. Give it time. Trust the process. William works in mysterious ways.
