if there’s one reason i know for sure that media literacy is dead it’s that there are people who slow dance and get engaged to this song.
#like yes sonically it’s GORGEOUS and with the birdsong it sounds so romantic#but babes the chorus is literally abt how the abuse is rare but because of the victim’s conditioning the blood is almost sweet/#a sign that the abuser cares about them#and the dichotomy of the romanticism of the song/sonic landscape vs the sorrow of the lyrics is in and of itself representative of abuse#as if from the outside everything is good and sweet and beautiful but with enough attention one can see that nothing is well and good#it just hinds behind the facade of it#so the subtlety of the separation of the text and timbre/vibe of the song is intentional bc it’s a metaphor of itself#however it’s like. do people genuinely not listen to lyrics ever like it baffles me#i am apparently the right amount of stoned to be mad about it on a friday morning having yet to sleep#music things
