    Lyrics:
    I made a promise
    To distance myself
    Took a flight, through aurora skies
    Honestly I didn't think about
    How we didn’t say goodbye
    Just see you very soon
    It hurts to be something
    It’s worse to be nothing with you
    So I didn't call you
    For 16 long days
    And I should get, a cigarette
    For so much restraint
    No matter how long I resist temptation
    I will always lose
    It hurts to be something
    It’s worse to be nothing with you
    I’ve done the math
    Theres no solution
    We’ll never last
    Why can't I let go of this?
    So I broke my promise
    I called you last night
    I shouldn't have, I wouldn't have
    If it weren't for the sight of a boy
    Who looked just like you
    Standing out on Melrose Avenue
    It hurts to be something
    It’s worse to be nothing with you

    In an era of auto tuned, computer generated, corporation produced ‘music’, your songwriting and performance talents are exactly what is needed right now. Like the punk and grunge generations before that were answers to the past corporate problems with music, she is one of the answers to ours.
    Thank you for going against the grain and being a pioneer for the audiences starved for real music.

    My dad and i listen to your songs on our way to school and one thing we like about your music is that, you dont cut your breathe out which has a lot of effect. To me it puts more emotion to your music because without your deep breaths, it doesnt make you human.

    I discovered you for the first time on ytb in 2021 and the first video I watched was you singing “moon river”. I was almost 13 years old then, and your songs changed my view of everything, and added sweet spices to my soul. I'll be 15 in a month, the past two years have changed a lot but your music, always, and forever soothes me.

I wouldn’t have discovered bossa nova and jazz if it wasn’t for you. I’m really proud to be a fan of yours, I can’t wait to listen to more of your upcoming releases

    I dont have neither a lover nor ex whom I miss. But, it applies to my family, i lost a sister, separated by choice not death.
    And it hurts so much. Couldnt cry or have a proper grief until I heard the song. The last verse, hurts the most.
    Thanks Laufey for always representing some parts of my life when words are hard to say or define. ❤❤❤
