#96 of 366: The Walls Are Way Too Thin, Holly Humberstone

Holly is right up there with Olivia Rodrigo when it comes to conveying relational tumult. We’re not really in high school anymore with this one though.

I can’t quite nail down if this song is literally talking about three roommates, a remote and their significant other where she has a crush on the roommate, or somehow using it all as a metaphor for a love triangle. Maybe somehow all three? You decide!

“I heard you talking ’til the morning, heavy whispers from the next room, you say it’s never your intention, and I’m just in a bad mood, there was a possible connection, on the table for a second, then she made such an entrance, can’t stand all this tension, can you?, then we crossed paths by the bathroom, but I’d just rather be out of the picture, and I’ll do my utmost to talk to you, but I just wanna be out, I just wanna be out of the picture”

Whatever she’s singing about, she does so like a lonely songbird. I’m here for it, and much more of her catalog. Stay tuned!
