lyrics!
On the way from the station
There’s a left turn where we ran
I used to pick up the pace then,
Take the left turn, it was bad
Just convinced
If my heart raced
You’d be there
I’d turn the corner
see your curly hair
Then I’d catch my breath
But I breathed alone
So nowadays I just walk straight home
cause I don’t wanna know where you are
I don’t wanna know how you’re doing
I’m getting good
at enjoying the dark
Why would I look
If it tears me apart
I am making measures
Severing tethers
don’t look at me while I grow
And a silver lining or
Something frightening
Is every day I don’t know
I don’t wanna know even more
I know you follow me closely
every hotel, every street
Do you imagine my taxi,
my apartment, who I meet
just convinced
That the dot might say I’m near
you’d open the door,
I’d be right here
That’s what I did
Just made me sad
So nowadays I don’t check the map
No I don’t wanna know where you are
I don’t wanna know how you’re doing
I’m getting good
at enjoying the dark
Why would I look
If it tears me apart
I am making measures
Severing tethers
don’t look at me while I grow
And a silver lining or
Something frightening
Is every day I don’t know
I don’t wanna know even more
i’ll forgive you
i’ll forget it
it’ll leave me
and i’ll let it
I’ll forgive you
i’ll forget it
it’ll leave me
and i’ll let it
you keep guard
if you want
hold the light
leave it on
and i’ll forgive you
No I don’t wanna know where you are
I don’t wanna know how you’re doing
I’m getting good
at enjoying the dark
Why would I look
If it tears me apart
I am making measures
Severing tethers
don’t look at me while I grow
And a silver lining or
Something frightening
Is every day I don’t know
I don’t wanna know even more

don’t look at me while i grow is literally an insane line oh my god
dude for real!!! so much of how i’ve been feeling/felt in the past put perfectly into words
NO LITERALLY ive been going through this deep introverted phase after a breakup and a stressful school year and,, Yeah .
@@emmadoesartonline that’s real
Dodie is a master at stabbing me in the heart with a single line
Been feeling this one a lot 😕
calm down child, it's not that serious
You need to put these monthly songs on a CD. I’d definitely buy it. Even though half of it isn’t written yet. I know it will be awesome.
thisss
What's a CD?
@@GamingTheAce this is a joke right?
@@GamingTheAce please no don't do this to me 😭💀
@@fern107 I assumed it was some kind of classical directory for the music like this
cutting someone off is such a weird sort of heartbreak. suddenly, the immediate image of them alongside you wherever you are has to be consciously corrected. being painfully aware that they're still somewhere out there when all you want to do is round the corner. i feel like these lyrics are reminding me to let go even if i don't necessarily want to- we still exist near each other, but i'm allowed to be on my own- i'm better off on my own.
yup, i know this feeling!
True! I'm going through the same thing right now. It's confusing and painful, but also freeing in the end.
Beautifully put.
Yeah.. everyone talks about a significant other but I had to leave my best friend because I was too insecure :(
@@jennyw2006 same for me.. I was quite insecure when we met, so they treated me without much respect. My confidence eventually grew, and I didn't want to feel the same way with them as before. So I cut her off... No regrets tho, we are better apart
(sorry for venting, the song hit me in the feels✋)
“I’m getting good at enjoying the dark, why would I look if it tears me apart?” so good 😩💞
So so good ,she's really amazing , I also do music with not this much Subscribers, if you have some free time ,check it out
I dont think any line in any off her songs has resonated more with me than this one
i'm a new subscriber
thank you
i love you
i only wish to attract a conversation
that is all
'and I'll let it' such a beautiful line, such a goddman beautiful song
wa thank u angel
Song Perfect ilove you song dodie clark ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🌹☕💋❤️❤️
This song was really comforting to me as someone who STILL thinks about a person who left me years ago. That bit about the person who tracked their diary was also comforting, because it feels like, sometimes, I'm always thinking about the same upsetting things. It makes me feel normal to know I'm not the only one doing that.
you are such a careful writer, i admire it so much. it's easy to say how someone's hurt you, but the way you focus on the more complex feeling of knowing you'll forgive them because you love them in spite of how they've hurt you is -whew- ow. i don't know if i said any of that right, but just know you're lovely and i'm a better writer in my own songs because of you. x
🖤
the actual sound of this song, like the production, is so cool. it sounds so ghostly. i love the way the harmonies mix together like ambiance rather than separate parts you can pick out. and the pulse effect on the vocals at the end of the chorus, wow. it feels like someone slipping away.
someone slipping away 🥺
the smirk when she sings “curly hair” … she knows (amazing song btw dodie!!)
I feel like its really easy to give sad songs happy chords so it's more swallowable, but the music and lyrics go perfectly together- a very honest and raw, melancholy experience. (I love it even more for that) :)
YOU’RE SO GOOD AT SONGS
"I'll forgive you, I'll forget it, it'll leave me, and I'll let it" - the simplicity of this beauty gave me chills. Love this song
"I am making measures, severing tethers, don’t look at me while I grow" is just such a good line lyrically and melodically. this song is amazing and it just gets better every time i re-listen to it
dodie recording this in bali, and trying to do so outdoors only to be interrupted by a rooster... the iconic Indonesian singer-songwriter experience
i love how you choose your levels of pronunciation, from the staccato and clear consonants in "I used to pick up the pace then, take the left turn, it was bad" to the more flowy and overlapping words later in the song and the choruses. it invokes such different feelings and it elevates the song so marvelously. you're a musical fae
"don't look at me while i grow" your music always makes me feel so so much
Weirdly, the lyrics make so much sense. I feel the heartache like it’s my own. The feeling that you don’t want to see but still they remain so vivid in your mind. Allowing the scars they gave you to heal. It’s an art piece. You expressed such a complex emotion so simply. I am moved to tears.
Gorgeous, gorgeous song! All of the luv dodes
(Plus it’s the day b4 my bday so this is the last new song I hear before I turn 15 thats so sick)
happy birthday! saw the comment 15min after it was posted haha🎉
@@luisabolado THANK U SM
Hi hi may be unwarranted but happy early birthday (if you're alright with that dskjdsk)!
I hope your 15th year is a good one :D
@@raiiven5268 you’re the sweetest! Thank you sm
Vampy you put that super super well i relate so much Andy happy early birthday!!!
i dont think i can express how cathartic this song is for someone who has SUCH a hard time letting things go. it's so easy to get caught up in your nostalgia and imagining how things could have been now if we somehow worked it out back then, but you have to realize and look at it from a standpoint that thinking about it isn't helping anymore, it's not healthy anymore. this person has moved on and is probably much happier now, and being sad and nostalgic doesn't do anything for me. im allowed to move on. im allowed to be not friends with this person anymore. it's ok to be strangers again, even if it aches a little bit sometimes. thank you so much dodie. i think im ready to actually start letting go :,>
thank you for writing this :,) I think I'm ready to let go now too
@@mia-yf8pz im so glad to hear this
@@kolechuchi hello! update! I did let go and started focusing on myself and grew so much as a person! Now I’m with someone new who makes me feel warm and light at the same time! Best thing I did was choose to let go and love myself. There was better waiting for me!! 🥰
this is criminally under rated
for the past few months ive been listening to this song as two lovers ending things on a bad note, but today i just realized that this applies to friends too...almost a year ago, my best friend stopped talking to me, and she's still in my head each day. the "dont wanna know" part of the song is like my mind telling myself to move on and stop thinking about her, but theres still this sad curiosity that really does want to know, and its an ongoing, internal battle that i dont think will ever end. because at the end of the day, i lost a best friend, even though there were so many things we both could have done to fix it, but now its too late, and i will always have regrets
great song! really makes me cry and wallow in self pity...but in a good way
i'm obsessed with those little chopped vocals at 1:13 oooooh my goodness. chills
Absolutely in love with the echoey effects on the word 'more' at 1:15 it's so so nice to listen to
i get the feeling that this is going to hit real close to home real soon and i'm not ready
yep
update: i was right. ow
It just hit me very close to home - and I was definitely not ready
@@izz2521 same. now when I listen to this song, it feels different :(
All of your music feels like a warm hug and really nostalgic. Thank you for creating such wonderful art and sharing it with us.
i could talk about how this song was convenient for my circumstances right now but the rooster is the real star of the show here
how HOW do you always, at the right moment, take my feelings, my pain, my EXACT thoughts, and put them into words and into songs so beautifully !!
my thoughts exactly
You just grow and grow as a songwriter. No-one else could have written and performed this song this way. It is your unique voice. Jools Holland said (about Jacob Collier) that musicians start out trying to sound like someone else, then they develop to the point where they sound like no-one else. You have reached that point. I can't wait to hear you write more about the other things, too. Richard and Betty showed that you can do that, beautifully. All power to your songwriting elbow.
FRECKLES SO PRETTY HERE AW
Please put this on Spotify one day I love it so much and come back to this song on the daily to listen to it! Keep up the good work lovely ! ❤❤
‘it’ll leave me, and i’ll let it” ugh dodie. beautiful as always
i’ve decided this summer i need to renter my 2016 dodie era and listen to the intertwined ep on loop
bet, i'll do it too
ohhhh lord i don’t understand how you keep doing it, but for the last ten years without fail, i’ll be going through it for whatever reason and i’ll click on whatever video you just posted and it’s always exactly what i need to hear. the way in which you process the world in your music is so healing and guiding, and always brings new perspective. you have a deep and impressive understanding of how tone, melody, rhythm, and intensity and etc influence emotion, even before the gutting and beautiful lyrics. you put your whole heart into your music and it resonates so far and wide. i have grown so much in the world because of you. thank you for everything, dodie.
the way i got a rush of serotonin from getting this notification
Her lyrics always tear me apart in the best way
Same here😔
love your songs, going to one of your concerts is on my bucket list
same!!
their concerts are phenomenal
Hi; your now elderly fan here... Dodie, that was a beautiful song, and one that will resonate with almost every human. The feelings that you are writing about, and their deep intensity, ARE things that do fade over time. Weirdly, older people almost become nostalgic for those feelings, as, just like being able to jump, and fall, and play, they are things that we can remember, but no longer feel, or do. Your song helps bridge that gap, so thank you for writing it.
There will be time for the 'serious' songs, and they too will be beautiful and meaningful... I think I speak for all your fans when I say that I believe you are a special person with a great ability, and I care for your well-being very much.
Oh, and as for the ending? Leave it to a cock to mess things up...
Dodie is honestly one of the best songwriters around in her genre
Sitting in my car thinking about those people who I once held close that are still living in my head rent free. This song was the final nail in the coffin. I don't want to know. Thanks dodie❤️
This song reminds me of my toxic ex best friend so much. "Why would I look if it tears me apart?" Thanks for writing beautiful and relatable songs dodie.
I'm currently dealing with the most massive heartbreak I've experienced. I cannot say I don't want to know where she is or how she's doing now yet because those thoughts haunt me every single day. Even though I've realised there was no reason to be sad over happy memories and beautiful moments and a breakup that's been done tenderly, I can't avoid feeling it, the sadness.
Thank you for this melody-hug ,dodie. As usual, you hit me right there.
I need this on Spotify YESTERDAAAAYYY ❤
This song is so GOOD ugh. The effects on your voice on “anymore” are enough to send me into absolute bliss for the next few days tysm
“i’ll forgive you, i’ll forget it
it’ll leave me and i’ll let it” speaks to me so much. this whole song really relates to something i’m going through right now; thank you so much for sharing your art with us
That yellow dress on the swing with the greenery in the background is all so pretty
The way dodie just creates a song that sounds (but isn’t) so effortless, yet so beautiful and calming. She makes every song look and sound so easy to copy, but really it’s so well thought out. A brilliant songwriter ❤
man i really FELT that frustration at the end with continuing to think and write about the same thing and that sense of “i Have other things to write about, why don’t i Do That?“
want you to know that every song you write feels different and unique, and has a new angle. every complex thing is built from simple parts. and i trust + believe that you will get to writing the other important songs you have to write, too
"It'll leave me and I'll let it..." still makes me feel everything.
this seems to depict the 4th stage of grief packaged in a melancholic, dreamlike song lol
Had a recent friendship breakup. First time of my life, and it hurt so bad. But it's better this way, and this song really helped soothe my ache.
I can't tell if you always miraculously know how I'm feeling or if you just write songs in a way that always validates my interpretation perfectly
I normally never comment but this song touched my heart in such a deep way. Please upload these songs to Spotify!
still come back to this song.
I needed this upload today. Beautiful as ever!
The lyrics are perfect.. when we've learnt that the best way to let go is to get good at knowing it's best for us. And I really feel the ''don't look at me while I grow' - this is me blocking them and everyone they know even though they'll probably never even look hahah it's me going "don't look at me right now"..
I think this is my favorite song of your monthly ones... around two years ago a friend I thought I would always keep in my life severely hurt me and betrayed my trust. I thought I could just move on and while it works just fine on some days, it doesn’t on others. My mom asked me if I heard of him lately and I told her I didn’t and I didn’t wanna know. Thank you for putting this feeling into music. I’ll continue to come here
these monthly songs are so warm ans seemingly simple in the instrumentation but the melodies and the harmonic components are just so simply beautiful
This song has somehow cemented itself in every area of my life god damn
literal poetry from a literal goddess. i love you dodie and i love the adventure ive had watching your videos. i relate to so many things and we are both so strong for still being here.
Instantly love this song. The lyrics, melody, and production-One of your best!!
ok this made me cry. i BEG you to release it on spotify
i really enjoy the compisition of one and how you flow in out of the major and minor of the key that you're in, really moving.
Your music just brings my brain bliss. I have no way else to describe it. It's so soothing and easy to listen to and your way with lyrics is so inspiring. Thank you for another amazing song.
This is so beautiful. It really captures the feelings of trying to keep a distance while still healing and growing💙 Dodies songs are just so expressive, they never miss
I think you're doing a wonderful job, doddie ^-^ Your music has helped me so much over the years. and I just want to point out that YOU ARE GROWING. thank you, for being you and expressing yourself, you're wonderful. I wish you and I both find that person that grows with us. sending love, especially to you
I never stopped being amazed by you! Such a great song. Every time I hear another one of your songs, it makes me want to write another. You are right there is always so much to write about but it's so easy to end up writing songs about the same thing.
this is so me rn. thanks dodie. your songs really hit me like no other songs do. i love you so much
These are so great Dodie! You're so good at the storytelling aspect of songwriting, like your songs are mini plays with characters and arcs.
Dodie your music is one of the things I’ve found that slows my mind and makes me feel still and calm. I have been diagnosed with ADHD recently, so I’m taking extra notice to what helps and what makes it worse. It’s no wonder I’ve been following you for so long.
Dodie...from the very bottom of my heart...please please release these songs as soon as you can please. Please. It’s 3am and I’m listening to all the 2022 songs and they’re just so brilliant. Please. (Lots of love ❤️❤️)
those topics that you mentioned you could write about sound really cool, but i am so thankful that this is the song you wrote and chose to share with us! it resonates with a lot of people, including me. i love the way you write lyrics about yearning
completely agree :))
I’ve put off listening to this for a week now and I despise that I did. Because exactly a week ago this would’ve broken me. There’s such a magic to your music dodie. The way it makes people feel is so fluid and it’s always changing with life experience. I could come back and listen in a year and feel something new. Thank you
You always seem to write things as I go through them. You have a gift and a super power and I am so sorry for what ever gave you inspiration for this song because I can tell it hurts
it's been a weird day. so glad for a new upload :')
hope u ok!
What lovely exotic birdsong they have in Bali.
She's amazing to listen to , I also do music with not this much Subscribers, if you have some free time ,check it out
Yeah I’m gonna need this one on Spotify so I can add it to a few different playlists I have. I love that you’re doing this series because I love seeing the behind the scenes of writing the song and what all goes into it (the experiences and the emotions rather than just trying to find a melody kind of bts)
i was looking through all her old music, and wow, dodie really has like, grown into herself, and her face over the years, she looks so calming :)
might be top 3 favorites songs you've ever written, the lyrics are very beautiful. each video of yours inspires me and i thank you for sharing this project with us ❤
I was so impressed that my back trembled when I listened to it. I have a heart in the performance and it sounds beautiful. Thank you very much
this is the best part of my day.
love the bridge
please release these as singles and at the end of the year as a full album! its too good for just UA-cam❤
the harmony is so stunning here
will forever be an alltime fav
These are always so beautiful! Amazing job Dodie. ❤ I can't wait until I get to this level in my audio work.
I truly am in love with this song, its wild to see the June I also experienced written into a song. Its really comforting to not see myself as alone in this experience.
Haunting as ever. There are so many things and I bet you'd do an extraordinary job at writing songs on any of them. Still, part of what makes your songs so meaningful, at least for me, is that I've never once felt they aren't genuine. It's nice to be able to relate and to feel and to not be alone in those feelings. You facilitate that realness with your realness, and I'm ever grateful for it.
Thank you for making me cry again. Have been looking forward to this all month
I love that you are posting these!! Thank you this is beautiful
Another lovely song I can relate a bit too much to, but in the best way possible 💟 thanks for putting in words and music such complex, human feelings
Mesmerising melody and lyrics, beautiful... and very thought provoking short monologue at the end.
Thank you dodie I needed this today
I have found this song exactly at the right time in my life. I can relate to the lyrics so much. Thank you.
This casual fragility is so convincing, so lovable, so near to the heart ... Thanks!
pls release this 😭 it’s beautiful
You're amazing and you have the perfect voice for anything from pop music to chillstep. Thank you for all you do.
this song is so good i keep listening to it on repeat 😢😭😭
I'm so impressed with your mixing work Dodie!! As an audio student, I understand how much effort goes into good quality recordings and mixes. Loving the details around 1:15 and the subtle dynamic changes throughout the piece. Endlessly impressed with how quickly you're growing as a musician :) Cheers
this is one of my favorites of yours. I’m lying here crying to it at 2am and gosh it is just so perfect for what I’m goin thru rn. Gonna learn this on my guitar this week. Another masterpiece dodie
wow wow the production and editing on this one has me in awe im not gonna lie
This is so beautiful. Wow.
