Story Behind The Song

"I started writing this song last Summer during our second wave lockdown. The song was inspired by a poem I wrote called 'Flowers' a couple years ago while working at a Cafe. The poem expresses the confusion I felt being a woman in my early 20's and not being ready for the 'real world'." Melotika shares. "I was on a call with a friend of mine, Gory Gloriana, a songwriter from Rochester, NY. It was super spontaneous but I showed her the poem, and she came up with beautiful keys and new melodies. We exchanged back and forth new lyrics bringing new life to this poem of mine. It was such a memorable experience and the very first time I have had a songwriter other than myself compose lyrics for a track. At the end of the day this song is just meant to make you feel happy and fulfilled reminiscing youth."

Lyrics

Sweet tangled heart, fighting can't keep us apart
Little troubled soul, hold my hand and don't let go

Spinning around the sun, laughing until we're done
We trip get up and run it's never gonna' stop
Flowers on the trees, we're dancing around the breeze
So come along with me, we're ever gonna' stop

Hey would you wrap your pedals around my waist
Hey would you smile come here with that sunny face

Sweet tangled heart, fighting can't keep us apart
Little troubled soul, hold my hand and don't let go

It's all been said and done we're chasing after the sun
We're crying because it's fun, we're never gonna' stop
Fake it till' the end we'll always play pretend
Forever you'll be my friend it's never gonna' stop

Hey would you wrap your pedals around my waist
Hey would you smile come here with that sunny face

Dried up dirt and cracked up vases flowers grow in strangest places
Throwing darts at tangled hearts can leave a scar on fragile faces
Dried up dirt and cracked up vases flowers grow in strangest places
Throwing darts at tangled hearts can leave a scar on fragile faces

Ou na na na na na na, ou na na na na na na
Ou na na na na na na, ou na na na na na na

Sweet pedal eyes, shining like the clear blue sky
Ou precious lips, waiting on your luscious kiss
Sweet tangled heart, fighting can't keep us apart
Little troubled soul, hold my hand and don't let go
