Hooped Earrings // The Front Bottoms (Lyrics)

I really overdid this one, using all of that stock footage. But there's not a lyric video for this song that I know of and I felt inclined to fix that.

LYRICS:
Come on give me a break, what is the point if I stay,
there’s not that much I can say.
I never really knew your mom anyway.
And now she’s crying in the bathroom.
I’m standing on the back porch for support.
And she is begging you not to cut your hair
cause curly hair don’t look good cut short.
And you have gotta do this now or you can never come home again.
Yeah, you have gotta do this now or you can never come home again...again.
You got a rash on your neck just below the line
where at your shirt stops covering and leaves your skin bare.
It’s such an unimportant detail,
that has nothing to do with anything,
but it's the only thing I remember from when I cut your hair.
And you have gotta do this now or you can never come home again.
Yeah, you have gotta do this now or you can never come home again.
And there are not so many options, there's not so many ways that this could possibly end.
So you have gotta do this now or you can never come home again...again. [x2]

This is either someone coming out as gay or trans.
There’s no in between

[@yourlocalcryptid6024]

It was about his friend coming out as a lesbian

@@yourlocalcryptid6024 they say that al, their songs are for the listener's interpretation. Now about that neck rash line... lmao

[@genericusername4206]

it makes sense if it’s about someone coming out as trans cuz the part about cutting the hair

[@hawyee1162]

@@theworstpear6080 well brian said that its about his friend coming out as a lesbian but still that doesn’t mean ppl can’t interpret it differently

[@celestiag.thomas-johnson7067]

@theworstpear no its about their friend coming out I forgot specifically as what but it's a genuine story

[@jtannock4]

curly hair does look good cut short
source: i chopped my waist length ringlets off and my boyfriend did not break up with me

[@agnieszkasalach4395]

I wish I could have my hair reach my waist, but it refuses to grow over the collarbones. I cut it out of frustration, kinda like "Oh well, if I can't have it long, I'm gonna have them real short!"
Can confirm, is curly, looked good

[@p3pperjackk_]

i like the beginning little xylophone type sounds. Its like, childhood vibes.

Wait please dont tell me the audio recording in the middle is that girl from the "i love you and i miss you hnnnn" meme

[@inafridge8573]

Such a beautiful song

[@nntljbl]

really good video!

[@do8037]

good job :)

[@el00000]

What is she saying in the second voicemail?

[@okayyish]

nobody is really sure, but at one point she says "I'm breaking up with you" and that's all anyone really knows
the song is about his friend coming out to her mother as a lesbian and wanting him to be there for her, so i assume it has something to do with that

[@raileybravo6750]

Ashy wow I didn’t know that

[@bethboyle4533]

wow me either

[@idontwantahandle436]

@@okayyish after she says I’m breaking up with you she also says I’m pissed off at you

[@elijah5656]

"*sob* im breaking up with you. im pissed off at you, (then either "please help" or more sobbing)"

Lets talk about these janky ass bridge clips
