I was lying down beneath my favorite tree
Thinking of the days when you were in love with me
And with that memory I slowly fell asleep
Then there you were again inside my dream
And we were walking through a winter wonderland
But then the seasons changed
And summer came and brought the rain again
I heard you whistling while you wore your favorite dress
You blew a kiss to me
And whispered things that I did not expect
Then we went dancing at the bottom of the sea
A band of barnacles all hummed and strummed
And drummed for you and me
And all the bragginflies and humble bumble bees
Abandoned land to dance on sand and rest their wings
When I awoke I was alone and day had gone
But in my sleepy state I softly sang this song
Willow, why, why, why wallow?
You've never known a broken heart
Willow, why, why, why, why wallow?
Just close your eyes and let it start

The Oh Hellos have come to hold a very special place in my heart, not just in this album, but in others as well. Hello My Old Heart was one of the first songs I ever heard by them, and it's been a treasured journey listening to them ever since. ladyoforion

This is the first album I found that really spoke to me as a young fem.
From the simplicity, the bass drum, specifically in landfill is so steady and soothing. I love landfill because it perfectly portrays trauma bonds, sexual or romantic relationships rooted in power imbalance. Being led on, unrequited love, constantly being clueless if someone is a real friend, or a lover. Are they yours or are they ruthlessly rogue. Untameable. Love and hate are such similar feelings, and they often mingle. clementinehatepageichangedmymind
