Borders 02:42
I hate it when I call you up On a Sunday night That means it’s Monday for you And weekdays are made for pulling through They are for things that normal people do Those days don’t mean a thing to me ‘Cause you’re away from me I’m tied up to this time zone And most days should be for holding you To do the things that normal people do (Do the things that normal people do) I’m older, not wiser My eyes are darker The time is slipping The memory isn’t fading Need to keep going Help me clear the blur I’m coming over, across that border Got nothing to declare Except for this sharp despair Coming to you completely bare Let’s start off from where we were Please just don’t marry her All I’m really really asking Is you wait for me a little bit longer Put the phone down and grab my hand I wanna scream with you Empty my lungs in the skate pool Meet me up on Garden street I feel like digging up old memories I’m older, not wiser My eyes are darker The time is slipping The memory isn’t fading Need to keep going Help me clear the blur I’m coming over, across that border Got nothing to declare Except for this sharp despair Coming to you completely bare Let’s start off from where we were Please just don’t marry her All I’m really really asking Is you wait for me a little bit longer

Bigger Love 03:49
You’re the only firefly A glimpse of hope into the night Time is not on our side No future for our kind Fuck it let’s enjoy the ride Paint my body with your kiss I’m the canvas, you’re the artist You’re my favorite sport Cardio and core Be my coach and I’ll abide Be my coach and I’ll Be my coach and I’ll abide I’m holding on to less and less As you take more and more space In my head in my heart in my nights in my days I’m fucked I told myself this is the last time This is it I'm not moving I’m not going You’re gonna have to remove me with a truck I’m holding on to less and less As you take more and more space In my head in my heart in my nights in my days I’m fucked I told myself this is the last time This is it I'm not moving I’m not going You’re gonna have to remove me with a truck Love stabbed me in the heart Found me a love now we apart Love stabbed me in the heart The bigger the love, the taller the fall The bigger the love, the taller the fall The bigger the love, the taller the fall The bigger the love, the taller the fall Standing in a blazing fire Nothing burns like my desire Never saw it coming Love for me is ruined How could I not read the signs Left the country not my mind I’m so lonely you seem fine You’re my favorite song Radio is on Every track just makes me cry I’m holding on to less and less As you take more and more space In my head in my heart in my nights in my days I’m fucked I told myself this is the last time This is it I’m not moving I’m not going You’re gonna have to remove me with a truck Love stabbed me in the heart Found me a love now we apart Love stabbed me in the heart The bigger the love, the taller the fall The bigger the love, the taller the fall The bigger the love, the taller the fall The bigger the love, the taller the fall

about

Written at the peak of the pandemic, Borders explores the toll on a longing woman’s imagination when she cannot travel to connect with the object of her desire. I’m coming over, across that border / Got nothing to declare / Except for this sharp despair, sing Camille Poliquin and Laurence Lafond-Beaulne on the song’s catchy chorus.

In addition to expressing the difficulty of long-distance relationships, the lyrics provide a universal perspective on tumultuous love stories and the feeling of melancholy. Borders is what happens when an obsessive person thinks about the what-ifs of their teenage romance, explains Milk & Bone. It's a reminiscence of simpler times, when emotions always spoke louder than words, and when everything was either black or white, complete and eternal.
