about
This song is about trying to comprehend why some people treat us the way they do. It's as if they are taking a prescription making them that way.
lyrics
Do you ever feel so brittle it's hard to speak?
Whispered words are so discreet.
Trapped in the middle with puppet strings.
Funny how you can't hear my soulful screams.
The mask I've made has no heartbeat.
The heart in me isn't hard to see.
You say whatever's on your mind.
Do you mind your evil eye?
I want to know the answers to all your sins.
You broke me down and trapped me in the wind.
I hear the thoughts of what I should do from the mess you've made, you put me through.
I know who I am and God does from above.
Who is God if I'm not getting love?
Manipulation?
Hesitation?

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
