【Music】BONNIE

Originally, I started writing this song about my experiences growing up on the internet. In specificity, my very first internet friend, Bonnie, and how I began to learn about genuine friendships in defiance of being taught to never interact with strangers. But, I began to explore the idea of a love story between Bonbon - referred to as Bonnie - and Lyra, as the lyrics developed. “CUTIEMARKS” deals a lot with my childhood memories and trauma, and so I really wanted to hone in the sounds and feelings of a sort of brash, youthful love. It became a song about Bonbon and Lyra chatting and simultaneously daydreaming about each other, daring to embrace their truest and even darkest feelings in the face of the trauma that they both carry.

Oh Bonnie I’ve been trying to escape From this stupid fucking phase I call love Oh Bonnie Won’t you show me how to live? I’ve been under a rock Since I was a filly. Oh Bonnie Do you remember who I am? You picked me up when I was At my lowest Oh no - Get home at 7pm Nothing to do Been getting fucked up at school again Just wanna talk to you It’s been practice, practice, practice For the recital coming up But I’d rather be online Cuz I don’t really give a fuck - Bonnie Won’t you show me how to live? I’ve been under a rock Since I was a filly. Oh Bonnie Do you remember who I am? You picked me up when I was At my lowest Oh no - I’ve been thinking about you Since you left You said we’d be best friends But you’re stuck in my head Oh won’t you call me back Secret Agent Sweetie Drops Let’s forget this whole facade My lovely lesbian hotshot Oh please just call me back Oh let’s just dance together It’ll be alright - (From BonBon’s Perspective) Did you ever read the letters I sent? I left them on your desk when we were young. I’ve felt this way for a really long time. But I was so scared, so scared. Am I normal? Is this feeling right? It’s hard to keep on living when I see no light. For a while I had asked, should I fucking die? Oh who am I? Will I live tonight? - I wish it were easy To tell you The demons I face When I sleep at night I just want to look after The soul you’ve let decay If you won’t love yourself Let me hold you and stay I remember I remember So let me try again Let me live again

i doubt that you will read this but i just wanted to say that discovering you fully through this song (even if i don't listen to much of your work outside of cutiemarks) has genuinely saved my life at some points. i was at a totally different maturity level than i am now upon first listening to this. your music has helped me come to terms with my queerness and learn to love myself. i have connected with it on such a deep level, especially this song, to the point it is hard to put into words. like not to be dramatic but i may not even be alive right now without this song.
