Deeply unsettling

I just made an impulsive decision to choose Hist H3 over Lit H3. You want impulse, Yiying? This is impulse, and this is your life spiralling out of control and hanging on a cliff precipitously.

On a completely unrelated note, Teenage Dream sung by Katy Perry irks me. First she praises her lover for not judging her looks: "You think I'm pretty/ Without any make-up on." Then she goes on to declare that "I might get your heart racing/ In my skin-tight jeans" which is superficial to say the least, and not to mention, entirely contradictory. She "let [her] walls come down, down" because her lover loves her for who she is and she reciprocates by sexually arousing him with the very factor that she does not want to be judged for.

No, it's not just lyrics.

I've listened to love declarations that may come across a little twee, but never lacking sincerity.
The Last Song by Lucky Soul is one such song. (They don't have it on Youtube, so: The Last Song)
Ali Howard croons with the childlike voice of hers, with the simple guitar accompaniment. She can come across  as naive, especially with the usual bubblegum pop she sings with the band. But here, there's this heartfelt melancholy despite her voice being crystal clear and not rich like say, Feist.

Born on a tear,
That seeps from the dagger shaped hole in your heart.
Wounds that run deep.
Well I'll try to patch them as best as I can.

If the sun melts the black of the street,
And the long road home sticks to your feet.
When the music that frees you has all but been used up,
Then I'll sing the last song for you.

I hate to see your heart breaking.
I'll hold it safe in my hands.
I don't know if my words can bind it together,
But that's all I know how to do.
So I'll sing the last song for you.

I ain't got much.
That I can give you, to keep you afloat.
Mumbled comforts,
Are no use for wrestling demons, I know.
But a lopsided smile and a lovesick recital,
Might loosen the burden for now.

The penultimate beat of the drum,
As the second to last chord is strummed.
When all other words have already been heard,
I'll sing the last song for you.
I'll sing the last song for you.
I'll sing the last song for you.
I'll sing the last song for you.

Sweet.
