lyrics

Look at me
When you speak and see
All of me
I offer it all.

Your hand on my chest
Can you feel that heartbeat in my breast?
How it longs to be known
How it longs to feel whole
Just hold me
Hold me
Hold me
Stay don’t go
Cuz I need your body warmth
Cuz I’m scared that I’ve grown too cold

But please don’t give up on me.

When you lean to touch me
I swear I won’t withdrawal
Again.
Just know that it scares me
My inability to react
To simple affections
But when I say I care
Just acknowledge that I am
Allowing myself to feel
Though I am rusty
And it is costing me
My second skin

how we long to be known
how we long to feel whole
just hold me
hold me
hold me

Stay don’t go
Cuz I need your body warmth
Cuz I’m scared that I’ve grown too cold

But please don’t give up on me.
Please don’t give up on me.


Since I’ve met you I’ve come a long way
Instead of long nights
where I lay awake terrified
I feel safe.
So I undress
put my arms around your neck
And I say
All these marks and scars
That I tried to cover up with art
Are yours to trace.

Oh how we long to be known
How we long to feel whole
Just hold me
Hold me
Hold me
Stay don’t go
Cuz I need your body warmth

Cuz you,
You refuse
To give up on me.
Oh you refuse to give up on “we.”

about

Irene Wilde Seattle, Washington

Avant-garde pop musician on a healing journey through art.

“ I paint figures that make beautiful my own vulnerabilities. I sing about what makes me blush. This is me connecting in the way I know how.. For these parts we tend to hide, they too have a desire to be known.”
