lyrics

I opened up my heart for you, told you everything I knew
You sorted out what you could use and kept it all for you
You did not care nor listen to what I was going through
Maybe I am not worthy of it, there are bigger problems too

And so I stopped to bother you
Became your human shield
Should manage just to deal with stuff that hurts me by myself

You leave your marks on me
And I unlearn to see
Who I had been before I became your clone
But being nothing is worse than being alone

I tiptoed in your shadow through the halls of our school
Just checking if my shadow had the same shape as you too
And nobody would listen to me if I weren’t with you
But does it even matter if the words they hear aren’t true

You leave your marks on me
And I unlearn to see
Who I had been before I became your clone
But being nothing is worse than being alone

You leave your marks on me
And I unlearn to see
Who I had been before I became your clone
But being nothing is worse than being alone

A scream doesn't always have to be loud. In the case of indie pop musician Deer Anna, it sounds soft, casual, and true. Sometimes I'm Dizzy When I Scream is the name of the artist’s debut album. And this dizziness, the giddiness and reeling set in when the panic attacks come, when depression takes over one's body. But also when beauty makes everything in you waver to the best of its ability. ... more
