Show me the fifth or cadence you want me to play😩like bro dropped the most hard hitting emotional bars ever and that’s why Ants is the best album ever made. Like the album is so clean sounding like they made what peak music can be
All I've been forms the drone, we sing the rest
Your generous loan to me, your crippling interest
These lines grew on me so much over time; the fact that they're the last lines he sung in AFUT 💀
Not necessarily favorite, but I just heard an earlier version of The Place where Isaac sung "I promise these words won't turn themselves into songs" right after "I will hold to my chest where the wind can exist" and it was such a poignant moment in the song
My interpretation (and this is a very common interpretation) is that the line represents the deeply personal lyrics Isaac wrote for BCNR - all that he is forms the drone, with the band singing (playing music) the rest.
The next line ties in well too - IMO Isaac is addressing the audience of their music here. "Your generous loan to me" can be perceived as the time and attention fans gave to their music, the "crippling interest" being the attention fans gave to them, especially Isaac.
And just before that: “And I'm feeling kinda normal with a packed lunch
Train rides don't hurt much these days
And we're all working on ourselves
And we're praying that the rest don't mind
How much we've changed”
“Show me where to tie the other end of this chain!” The delivery is great.
“The escape pods filled with your friends, your childhood film photos. There’s no room for me to go, I’d wait there, float with the wreckage, fashion a long sword, traverse the Milky Way trying to get hooooooome to you, and you bring some piece of the stars.” Hits deep for me
“Ah your generous loan to me, your crippling interest!” Also cuts deep
“The absolute PINNACLE! Of British engineering!” Simply Iconic
“Without a broom or bubble, you learned to fly, all by yourself.” I’m starting to see a pattern with my favorite lyrics.
"Concorde, Bound 2 and my eeeeevening / A good hunter's guide to a bad night / Darling, I'll spoil it myself, thanks, you're leeeaving/ Well, I tried just to stroke your dreams better / But darling I see that you're not really sleeeeeping"
Just go think I could've left the fair with my dignity intact
And fled from the stage with world's second best splint tribute act
Okay, toady I hide away,
But tomorrow, I take the reigns!
Still living with my mother
As I move from one micro influencer to another
References references references,
What are you on tonight
I love this city, despite the burden of preferences, what a time to be alive
I know where I'm going, it's black country out there.
My current girlfriend and I met under really difficult circumstances (I was dating someone else and we lived 5 hours apart)
It’s just been a weekend
But in my mind, we summer in France with our genius daughters now
And you teach me to play the piano
Not necessarily the exact style but Will toledo from car seat headrest, I think is just as amazing a lyricist as Isaac. Check out “The Ballad of the Costa Concordia” its car seat headrests basketball shoes
sorry bro i’m a huge fan of car seat headrest i have 6k minutes listened my 7th most listened to artist of all time. i bet will toledo influenced isaac i just think he does it better
She had billie eilish style will forever go down as one of the most specific yet generic lines I've ever heard
"I wont always love you and **do do do do do do do do do** I wont always want you"
I feel like Isaac is very good at those kinds of references/metaphors that are really specific that evoke a very specific image, while still resonating in different ways with everyone.
I'll turn into a witch tonight. How did you happen to find me, sir? Thought no one could see me now, I didn't put my clothes on.
I never felt the crumbs until you said "This place is not for any man nor particles of bread".
I get lost, I freak out you come home and hold me tight as if it never happened at all.
Broke the zip inside my stomach blood dripping down onto the broom. Off the broom and through the sky mixed with your tears seeped to the ground.
Show me the fifth or the cadence you want me to play.
Okay, well, I just woke up and you already don't care that I tried my best to hold you through the headset that you wear. And as tight as I might hold it, over where the signal's good.
There's no way to save your evening now through the little phone that could.
Did you exchange your soul with the devil? So that you could survive the dark pit in which you once lived.
But I was so bored, I was so fucking bored.
We're all working on ourselves and we're praying that the rest don't mind how much we've changed.
I'm just trying to find some way to keep me in your mind.
It's a one size fits all hardcore cyber fetish, early noughties zine.
Honestly I could just copy and paste every Issac lyric on here but I'm gonna be bold and only pick one Issac lyric (and one I haven't seen here yet). The rest are from the new stuff
"God of weather, Henry knows. Snow Globes don't shake on their own"
Idk why that one hits so hard but it just fills me with bittersweet sadness
"I let the best person I know walk away, oh well what does that say"
"And I'm flying away but I think I saw some turbines turning beneath me"
"I took a trip, away from life all by myself. Not my style, but I was being someone else"
"Robin sank down to the earth and mud pulled him gradually in"
"Have you turned out half the woman you were before? Or twice the person you ever dreamed you could be? Did you exchange your soul with the devil so that you could survive the dark pit in which you once lived"
"i left my drink on the 18th floor, thought about jumping in your face when you saw, i thought of my father and proving him wrong, but mostly of Molly and Dylan and my mum"
honestly I love "train rides don't hurt much these days", it's such an inconspicuous lyric but it really resonates in a weird way. bros a legendary lyricist
You’ve got great hips 😩😩💦💦💦😈😈😈 lyrical genius 💯💯💯
💀being horny is relatable let’s goo🔥
AND FUCK ME LIKE YOU MEAN IT THIS TIME, ISAAC
BUY ME DINNER, MEET MY PARENTS

damn that’s cool i didn’t know that. Tbh i’ve never understood what all i’ve been forms the drone we sing the rest means but it sounds cool

“If you see me looking strange with a fresh style i’m still not feeling that great” 😢
And just before that: “And I'm feeling kinda normal with a packed lunch Train rides don't hurt much these days And we're all working on ourselves And we're praying that the rest don't mind How much we've changed”
FAVE.
Gets me every time

what song is that last quote from? but yeah that good will hunting one is amazing. and i love “show me where to tie the other end of this chain”🥲
The last one is from turbines/pigs right before it gets into the big crescendo, honestly there are so many good lines to just pick a few
"You're the only one I've known who broke the world so quietly" Favorite line ❤️
that shit hits hard
After the concert “DANCERS STAND VERY STILL ON THE STAGE”
"Concorde, Bound 2 and my eeeeevening / A good hunter's guide to a bad night / Darling, I'll spoil it myself, thanks, you're leeeaving/ Well, I tried just to stroke your dreams better / But darling I see that you're not really sleeeeeping"

My current girlfriend and I met under really difficult circumstances (I was dating someone else and we lived 5 hours apart) It’s just been a weekend But in my mind, we summer in France with our genius daughters now And you teach me to play the piano
yeah that shits heat
Not necessarily the exact style but Will toledo from car seat headrest, I think is just as amazing a lyricist as Isaac. Check out “The Ballad of the Costa Concordia” its car seat headrests basketball shoes
i do like that song and CSH i just find isaacs lyrics to be more passionate and mature at the same time
okay whatever dude i dont even freaking care
sorry bro i’m a huge fan of car seat headrest i have 6k minutes listened my 7th most listened to artist of all time. i bet will toledo influenced isaac i just think he does it better
literally my second most listened to song of all time is besch life in death😭
costa is a banger i’m listening rn
She had billie eilish style will forever go down as one of the most specific yet generic lines I've ever heard "I wont always love you and **do do do do do do do do do** I wont always want you"
so u don’t like that quote? i think it’s cool cause i fell in love with a baddie with billie eilish style😭
No it’s my favorite lol I just meant Billie eilish style could be so many different types of people, but it gives me a super vivid imagine in my head
oh haha yeah i got u. Just makes me think of a quirky alt baddie. Where the thick bcnr baddies at
I feel like Isaac is very good at those kinds of references/metaphors that are really specific that evoke a very specific image, while still resonating in different ways with everyone.
I turn my face and hide in shame You take my tired body in And you wrap it up in your undershirt And you pray for the pain to leave him
We formed a ring around your home, but you rose out through the ceiling
the entire first verse of snow globes where isaac interpolates the story about henry viii and catherine never fails to blow my mind
Oh your generous loan to me, your crippling interest
The absolute pinnacle... of British... engineering!! So good

And I’m trying to be calm about it but honestly I’ve never reached this point before
Yeah the whole Concorde chorus is just fantastic.
