about
This track is about my relationship with anxiety. I feel like anxiety can become so present in one's life that it's as if it's a physical being.
lyrics
Knock knock.
You're so impatient.
Knock knock.
It's devastating.
It happened here.
All is said and done.
Voices traveled nonetheless.
There's a stabbing in my chest.
You're no help dear.
Tore my clothes, my voice.
Ripples down your spine gave you no choice.
Why are you always looking for an answer?
Can't thieve it from my heart.
Always trying to conquer.
Spill it out, you'll see a little better.
You linger in my ear.
Put my soul upon the platter.
Knock, knock, It's an emergency.
A cat bit my tongue easy as 1, 2, 3.
Knock, knock, there's someone at the door.
You did not plan this so you fear it even more.
Veins hurting.
A stagnant race.
Rewriting your vows.
Wash the dirt off your face.
Bow down, you must obey.
Hierarchy won't dissolve away.
Stay clear from a person's gaze.
Don't want them to see the mess you've made.
You just want to tell me what to do all the goddamn time.
Well, baby, I've got news for you.
Knock, knock, It's an emergency.
A cat bit my tongue easy as 1, 2, 3.
Knock, knock, there's someone at the door.
You did not plan this so you fear it even more.
Knock knock.
You're so impatient.
Knock knock.
It's devastating.

There’s a mighty cinematic sweep in the songs on the latest from Badlands, the big and imposing orchestration with dreamlike vocals. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 27, 2022
Sweden's Catharina Jaunviksna, aka Badlands, creates gently glowing '80s-inspired pop - think of it as new wave in pastel rather than neon. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 2, 2021
