"Dear Self: It’s a shame how hard you are on yourself. You treat others with more love than you treat you. You deserve to be celebrated too."

[@XXXoXXoXXXX]

Had this beautiful song looping in my head throughout the night. Ethel is an angel upon the earth

[@CageRattler_]

Perfect end of summer jam

[@dizzy_star]

“The neighbor’s brother came home in a box But he wanted to go, so maybe it was his fault Another red heart taken by the American Dream.” She is such a lyrical genius!

[@gnap6051]

What does it mean

[@thehumanbeings]

@@gnap6051 "Ethel reflects on the death of her neighbor’s brother, a soldier who died overseas and whose body was sent home. While she suggests that the brother is responsible for his fate as he joined the army at his own will, Ethel empathizes with him as she realizes that his decision was made in an honorable pursuit of the American dream." - from Genius

[@noahaiden2047]

How relatable it is!

[@annnee6818]

I relate to it despite being unsure what most of it means

@@hassanawni2794someone w ur pfp in an ethel cain comment section is hard to believe 😭

[@lilacmoondust]

is it? 🤨

[@kellykittycat9694]

Cant believe shes trans like damnnn her voice also this isnt me being transphobic she just sound's amazing

[@ZoomerUnion]

Yeah it's pretty rare for transwomen to be able to sing in her vocal range as masterfully as she does

[@nikitasantos2084]

i mean, there's a lot of amab people who already have vocals/voices on the more higher side tbh. Ppl are very diverse, there are women with rlly deep voices and men with higher voices who aren't trans, and everything in between

[@Aesthetic_addiction659]

Me being a teen reading the comments seeing people say " me listening to this as a 30 yo or 20 yo teenager : 😟

Grew up under yellow light on the street Putting too much faith in the make-believe Another high-school football team Ah, ah-ah-ah The neighbor's brother came home in a box But he wanted to go, so maybe it was his fault Another red heart taken by the American dream And I feel you there In the middle of the night When the lights go out And I'm all alone again Say what you want, but say it like you mean it With your fists for once, a long cold war With your kids at the front Just give it one more day then you're done I do what I want, crying in the bleachers And I said it was fun I don't need anything from anyone It's just not my year, but I'm all good out here Sunday morning Hands over my knees in a room full of faces I'm sorry if I seemed off, but I was probably wasted (wasted) And didn't feel so good (didn't feel so good) A life full of whiskey but I always deliver Jesus, if You're listening, let me handle my liquor And Jesus, if You're there Why do I feel alone in this room with You? And I feel you there In the middle of the night When the lights go out But I'm still standing here Say what you want, but say it like you mean it With your fists for once, a long cold war With your kids at the front Just give it one more day then you're done, done I do what I want, crying in the bleachers And I said it was fun I don't need anything from anyone It's just not my year, but I'm all good out here Say what you want, but say it like you mean it With your fists for once, a long cold war With your kids at the front Just give it one more day then you're done I do it for my daddy and I do it for Dale I'm doing what I want and, damn, I'm doing it well For me, for me For me, for me, yeah

[@peanut.buhtur]

1:53 isn’t the bridge it’s the verse 2 and 2:40 is the bridge- some artists use the chorus as the bridge as well

[@ayebing]

this will get 'er done

[@mr.f716]

Obama approved

[@44DimensionSeven]

Ironic

[@annnee6818]

I dunno why people keep posting this, but it's probably an in joke non Americans aren't supposed to get

[@wcwjltma]

@@annnee6818 this song was included in obama's 2022 official spotify playlist presumably because of the word "american" in the title and the lyrics can tell that he did not in fact listen to it

[@annnee6818]

@@wcwjltma Thanks for clearing that up. Wouldn't know why he wouldn't listen to it, it's great.
