  • lyrics and things down here!
    You saw through me
    All this time
    I'd forgotten
    People are kind
    I was hurting
    And you knew
    So you showed me
    What to do
    You said "I will listen
    Tell it all
    when you're finished
    we'll talk more"
    But I didn't know how
    So we took it in turns
    And to my surprise
    We found my words
    Feet firm on the ground
    We stood hand in hand
    The world seemed to tell me
    That I have a plan
    Together we sang
    I'm ready now
    Something new
    Something strange
    Ten feet taller
    I had changed
    I believe you
    I'm not wrong
    Oh it suits me
    To feel strong
    You said "I will listen,
    Tell me it all
    you don't like the ending
    Then we'll find one that's yours
    Oh, how did you know
    That's all we need
    A promise of hope
    Is enough to feel free
    Feet firm on the ground
    We stood hand in hand
    And I told the world
    That I have a plan
    Together we sang
    I'm ready now

    “It suits me to feel strong” is the lyric that hits me the most in this. Before I met my fiancé I was in a dark dark place and on the days I felt like me he would tell me that exact thing; that it suited me being strong. My heart melts hearing this because it reminds me of how much he changed my life. I’m honoured someone was finally able to put into words how it feels meeting someone who makes you feel like this.

    Oh my god, this is so beautiful. It brings me back to 2015-2016 dodie, where lots of the songs were just a simple melody and harmonizing with herself. I still enjoy her newer music, but this soft and simple style has always been my favorite.

    I love the way she uses expression when singing. Is it just me, or does that make it seem lighter and more jovial? Because I can feel the lyrics when there's expression. Also, compared to how she used to dart her eyes around and take shorter and more anxious breaths, it's amazing and it's a physical, visible change. She just looks so much happier.

    Okay so freshman year of high school, like fresh off the middle school boat, I had a really big crush on this guy. He was about a month younger than me. I was shy and awkward and when we started talking, I kind of turned a blind eye to the way he was treating me. He put me down all the time and he corrected me when I wasn't wrong and made me feel like garbage, but he asked me out and I'd had a crush on him so we went out. He immediately started calling me his girlfriend and he was kind of possessive, which gave me large amounts of anxiety, so I "broke up" with him even though we weren't really together. Coming from a middle school as toxic and horrible as mine was, recieving the same treatment somewhere that was supposed to be better honestly broke me. I blamed myself for a year and a half and told myself that I was too sensitive and it kind of ruined me in terms of dating.
    There was this one guy and he was so sweet and amazing and funny, and he treated me like an actual person so I developed feelings for him. He apparently saw me the same way, so last year (junior year) he asked me out. I said yes, but that anxiety just kicked back up again and I called it off, which was one of me biggest mistakes. I did like him a lot, but my experience with dating got the better of me and I decided it wasn't time.
    I kept hanging out with the newer guy, and I discovered that I still had feelings for him not too long ago. I've kind of accepted the fact that freshman year I was treated like garbage and it wasn't my fault for being unhappy.
    This song came out, and when I listened to it, it spoke to me. I've come so far in these last few years, and I decided that I didn't want my bad experiences to rule me for the rest of my life.
    So, at the end of my senior year, I asked that guy out. We have a date this Saturday. 🖤

    [Verse 1]
    You saw through me all this time
    I'd forgotten people are kind
    I was hurting and you knew
    So you showed me what to do
    You said "I will listen, tell it all
    When you're finished we'll talk more"
    But I didn't know how so we took it in turns
    To my surprise we found my words
    [Pre-Chorus]
    (Hmm)
    Feet firm on the ground
    (Hmm)
    We stood hand in hand
    (Hmm)
    The world seemed to tell me
    (Hmm)
    That I have a plan
    (Hmm)
    Together we sang
    [Chorus]
    I'm ready now
    Oh (hmm) oh oh (hmm)
    Oh oh oh (hmm) oh oh (hmm)
    [Verse 2]
    Something new, something strange
    Ten feet taller, I had changed
    I believe you, I'm not wrong
    *Oh, it suits me to feel strong*
    You said "I will listen, tell me it all
    You don't like the ending?
    Then we'll find one that's yours"
    Oh, how did you know?
    That's all we need?
    A promise of hope
    Is enough to feel free
    [Pre-Chorus]
    (Hmm)
    Feet firm on the ground
    (Hmm)
    We stood hand in hand
    (Hmm)
    And I told the world
    (Hmm)
    That I have a plan
    (Hmm)
    Together we sang
    [Chorus]
    I'm ready now
    Oh (hmm) oh oh (hmm)
    Oh oh oh (hmm) oh oh (hmm)
    Oh (hmm) oh oh (hmm)
    Oh oh oh (hmm) oh oh (hmm)

      I know the questions for Dodie, but we have pretty similar types(thick-ish yet fine), I'd suggest a saltwater/argan oil spray(easily made if you can't find one, but the salt is for light hold/texture and the oil for hair health and shine)! I like lightly misting when wet and using a hairdryer while shaking it out and misting again when dry for a style similar to the beachy look she has in this video! I also braid my hair almost every day when it's long lmao, it's quick and simple. Feel free to message me if you want to talk about styles for other hair types, I'm fairly experienced in healthcare and styling for most of them!

I eyeball it and it will vary depending on what your hair needs, my hair is fine and dry so I use a bit more of both than someone with coarser hair might need. And oily hair can be a sign of dry follicles, so using oil is important even if you aren't putting product in. If you have issues keeping your hair healthy I advise forgoing commercial conditioners for an overnight deep conditioning with pure coconut oil once a week. I use conditioner once every few months if that and my hair is healthier than it's ever been!

    I love you, Dodie
    Times have been a bit shaky lately. But my feet are now firm on the ground with my best friend's support
    It makes me feel good when I can stand hand and hand with him and walk through all the things I couldn't have faced alone.
    Sometimes, he'll say something that speaks volumes. But he'll simply tell me "you've got this" and I know the world has given me a plan.
    Sometimes, our communication is listening to music and not worrying. We sit in his car and crank up the volume and feel ourselves being human. Together we sang
    We've missed our chances on heaven a few times and he always holds my hand when we walk through hell together.
    He helped me find my words. He made me realize; I'm ready now
    He'll never see this, but I hope he knows I love him even though his friends are convinced we're dating
