[@Prince-Ren]

I love both versions, but this one really hits the spot IMO. The lyric changes had meaning, I'm sure (to me they really do. It's a lot more polished, there's meaning). The vocals stand out more. There's a lot more power behind this. They did amazing. If y'all don't like it, go listen to the other one. It's still up.

[@galaxydragons6244]

right i felt like the original was overstimulating and a little too chaotic

[@clam6254]

what i’ve noticed is this: when the demo said “i’ve walked into your dagger for the last time in a row, something something something in the snow”, the rhyme between row and snow is very clearly telegraphed. it’s a good lyric, but it’s a little predictable. but not having that rhyme and having adrienne talk about the snow out of nowhere puts more magic in the metaphor, because instead of adrienne looking for a word that rhymes with row, she’s making an earnest comparison to snow that isn’t telegraphed clearly. idk, i like both but there’s some real heart in this one

[@moccea6012]

@@clam6254 I think that removing the “in a row” really showed that it was the LAST TIME,no more row

[@clam6254]

@@moccea6012 i do get the appeal of “the last time in a row” though. cause it’s like, she’s saying it’s the last time but she’s also saying she’s done it over and over and over. it’s like she’s saying “i’ll quit this time i promise even though im addicted”. it’s clever, i just think the rhyme is too obvious

that part was so clunky, cumbersome. im glad its gone.

[@hatsterical2475]

I'm saying this as somebody who didn't hear this song before the full release, and who has been looping this version for hours, and I do think that the fish and gills line is a cute line, but I love how it sort of smooths out the whole set of rhyme there when it drops the rhyming and leaves that line out. It feels so smooth suddenly, after building, which feels like emotions are flowing. Of course it's all about personal preference!

[@undoxxbruh9804]

I never realized how much pain my relationship is causing me until i listened to this song and realized how much i relate to it, he doesn't hold me but never lets me go, he changed me and then wanted me to be like before, he turned my whole world around but told me to stop feeling so much, he wants to be alone but doesn't want me to go away, He ignores me completely every single day but I can't do the same, I'm in pain, I'm living a nightmare, I'm with a man that maybe once loved me but doesn't act like he does, i feel like in every word and detail i put my whole heart yet his constant ghosting and stoicism makes me feel like I'll never be enough... And the worst part is that i love him, i don't want to leave because i still hope and pray for the day he treats me with the love i treat him. This song helped me realize how delusional i sound

We live separately but since school is starting soon and today was the get your stuff day, I saw her glaring at me from across the gym. Me n her share no classes so that's an upside. But I still give props to your for dealing with it, going with it, although it's so wrong and the wrong choice your so so strong for enduring it. In my honest opinion you should think out and write down some way to tell him that he needs to do better subtly or to just cut them off. It's better to be held and for them to never let go, than it is to not be held but to never let go. I believe in you!

[@cass422]

@@undoxxbruh9804no one should make u feel that way either. it’s hard but you can leave one day it is so possible and you don’t deserve that at all. i understand how it feels to wish for someone to maybe decide to treat you right because they used to. or maybe because it’s good for a a day or two or they buy you something or apologize so you forgive. but it’s a nasty cycle that isn’t going to stop. you can’t let him keep draining you like a vampire, you deserve to be a free bird soaring in the sky. you deserve love and kindness and gentleness 🫶 it’s out there waiting for you with open arms

A bit late to reply, but I've been there. All the things you said in this comment, I can 100% relate. She did the same to me... And till the last minute I hoped she would show me I was wrong and that the wait was worth it; But it was not, I ended up seeing how messed up and hurt I was for trying so much.. Then I had to leave and she blamed me, saying I was abandoning her, but, she abandoned me first a long time ago I hope you get well, I hope things get fixed between you two!! And hope that, if he's not the one, you realize it and can take the steps to change things, always love yourself first.

I have never clicked on a video more violentely and desperately than when i saw this pop up in my feed just now, thank you

"I'm nothing, you are nothing, we are nothing with the pills" literally me after screaming about how my meds aren't helping anymore 😍

At first It took me awhile to adjust but now I absolutely adore what you've done, I've spent hours replaying this specific song and analyzing each lyric

[@ohhellomynameisheather]

The demo is like a sad, angry, but mostly confused lament. It’s discordant and uncertain, not knowing exactly how to feel. This version, however, knows exactly how to feel. It is somehow more certain in its uncertainty, more resolute, more angry at the confusion than reveling in it. They’re both fucking awesome.

I should avoid listening to this a thousand times before the album comes out, but I'm afraid that's not gonna be possible

“..it’s like trying to start a fire with matches in the snow we’re u can’t seem to hold me can’t seem to let me go…” HITS HARD❤

[@TheWolf-iu8oh]

I LOVE THIS VERSION SM ❤❤

[@kieragorenflo1001]

i love the "u turn me inside out and then u want me outside in" to be inside out i imagine is to pull the inside, being pulled closer. before turning outside in. like pushing the outside into itself. its a pull and then a push. constant war. i love it. (probably wrong but hey whatever i think its still poetic)

god i love this song so much (i’m sobbing)

[@AmandaTrips]

Keep coming back to this since it came out last year, can we all agree this is such like a special song? The vocals, the music, and the lyrics itself is like a daydream.

"You turn me inside out, then you want the outside in. You spin me all around, then you tell me not to spin" it feels like being autisic.
