Lyrics:
there’s an eye
on a chain round my neck
it’s supposed to protect me
from evil i guess
and i’m sure
it’s been doing it’s best
but it can’t fight the evil
that’s inside my head
tell me if you’re getting bored
of all this shit you didn’t sign up for
i don’t wanna turn my darkness into yours
i wish i could lie to you right now
but the tears come with the truth
i’ve been hanging by your halo
don’t you wanna cut me loose?
i didn’t mean to weigh you down
with my ever changing mood
i’ve been hanging by your halo
i hope i never get too much for you
no excuse
for the shit that i’ve done
but i’m blaming the head fuck
on my cancer sun
wouldn’t judge you
if you wanted to run
isn’t loving somebody
supposed to be fun?
does the thread begin to fray?
i haven’t left my room for days
i don’t wanna turn my darkness into
something you can’t escape
i wish i could lie to you right now
but my tears come with the truth
i’ve been hanging by your halo
don’t you wanna cut me loose?
i didn’t mean to weigh you down
with my ever changing mood
i’ve been hanging by your halo
i hope i never get too much for you

[@imthatdude7789]

1000% so true

[@skyeeyks3838]

Lover or liars, yes I agree 💯

[@aliciafoxxxy7943]

This song resonated so much with me.😭 Sometimes, you are a burden to other people and that's so frustrating because you don't want to but you KNOW you are bothering them, even if they don't want to admit it. Since then, I try to never ask for help (which is also bad) but I'm getting better. I'm becoming a better person and I'm working on it.❤

[@MsDaniilou]

Lauren returns and tells us the feelings we’re feeling that some of us are just unable to put into words 💖

ฉันเป็น แฟนคลับที่มาจากไทย ตอนที่ฉันเข้าเรียน มัธยมต้น ครั้งแรก เพลงคุณทำให้ฉันมีความหวังที่จะใช้ชีวิตต่อในทุกๆวัน ฉันมักจะเปิดอัลบั้ม ของคุณทุกอัลบั้มฟัง เลย ตอนนี้ฉันอายุ 19 ปี แล้ว กำลังเรียนที่มหาลัย ขอบคุณเพลงจากคุณ Lauren Aquilina 😭😭😭😭🙏🙏

[@justinfitzsimmons9635]

her voice is one of sorrow and pain and yearning for love

[@jazminratzlaff5357]

You are one of the greatest songwriters and voices ever! Your voice is so calming, serene yet so powerful and emotional. Love this music video, it’s simplicity and your outfits. The guitar is absolutely stunning. 😍🥰😘🤩 🌟 ✨ 🤍 🎵 🎶

[@jcoluco4316]

Cried on the way home listening to this song while remembering the people I used to hang by their halo's... I love how this perfectly blends with empathy- how you receive too much pain from someone else, and then sharing that pain and feeling bad for it

[@chatshired]

i loooove the vocal echo effect. this whole song is just so atmospheric and poetic and the mv reflects that with the gentleness and soft lighting. hbyh is perfection all around me thinks

[@yoengotheapsofpaperworks497]

I’m listening to this song for 3 hours straight... she's finally back😭

[@KarenGarcia-tj2iw]

I have been carrying your songs with me since 2018 or maybe earlier, the first one I listened to was king which is still my favourite. it brings back sweet memories of when i was in school then i loved manga and books one of my favorite books was a book set in the dream world it changed me and made me dream and I was full of dreams and imagination. now things have changed i grew up i don't go to school anymore, i don't read so many books anymore and i don't watch anime anymore and my imagination is there but it's not like before. but if there's one thing that still manages to make me dream and take me back to the past, it's your songs. they helped me in my dark moments, and I personally felt every text and word.

[@eipuriru06]

I've been following you since. I can just feel your songs and even your soul. Thanks for being there
