#I’m not great at the music interpretation cos poetry has always been a brain breaker for me

which song from the yellowjackets official soundtrack do u think fits lottie the best?
i presume we’re talking the songs not made for the show and not the blood hive soundtracks here?
off the top of my head it’s just a girl and we’ll stick with the florence version cos her haunting vocals fit lottie more than gwen stefani’s voice
“Cause I'm just a girl, I'd rather not be
'Cause they won't let me drive late at night
Oh, I'm just a girl, guess I'm some kind of freak
'Cause they all sit and stare with their eyes”
“Oh, I'm just a girl, living in captivity
Your rule of thumb makes me worrisome
Oh, I'm just a girl, what's my destiny?
What I've succumbed to is making me numb”
also kind of an obvious one because of the scene it was used in but seventeen by sharon von etten
“Down beneath the ashes and the stone
Sure of what I've lived and have known
I see you so uncomfortably alone
I wish I could show you how much you've grown”
strong(ish) and stable(ish) adult lottie (pre trauma milf invasion) talking to her younger self?
I know the way sharon describes the meaning of the song it isn’t a perfect song for her but just certain lyrics really punch you in the lottie infected heart
“Downtown hotspot halfway through this life
I used to feel free, or was it just a dream?”
and away from any official songs used in the show, courtney was pretty spot on with not strong enough by boygenius
“Always an angel, never a god
Always an angel, never a god
Always an angel, never a god
Always an angel, never a god”
“I don't know why I am the way I am
There's something in the static, I think I've been having revelations”
“The way I am
Not strong enough to be your man
I tried, I can't
Stop staring at the ceiling fan and
Spinning out about things that haven't happened
Breathing in and out”
