lyrics

we pretend we’re five years old again
embracing crackling ice and breaths of wind
we’ve caved in as the years go by
our bones have been so densified
we’ve got ashy black lips that burn to kiss

we’re tearing through castles and collecting stones
oh god i can feel it, i can feel it in my bones
there’s some kind of magic in these fences falling down

we’re hungered by the looks they give us
when they break out of our bounds
so we’re cultivating hearts and hands
to make us feel that way again
with firecracker palms and empty shoulders

we’re cultivating hearts and hands
to make us feel that way again
that funny feeling in our palms
cultivating hearts and hands
lightheartedness will come again to your sleepy eyelids

Opal Angel EP
by Luna Li

supported by 6 fans who also own “We Pretend”

I fell in love with every song Hannah B. (Luna Li) has made. There are some I hope she re-releases because the live versions have put so much more energy into the songs that they have become reimagined versions in such slight but mind bending new ways. I hope to hear “Nightmare Gone To Waste” re-released with the solo from the live show. That short video snip I saw in IG gave me life. I may have to plan a trip to Canada to catch a show because they look visually stunning. Dave Jones
