about

"Each song on postromantic focuses on a different couple of characters," writes Vivienne Wilder. "But they're all one-sided conversations. ‘postromantic’, the title track, is about dwelling on a past relationship to the point of paralysis/depression; a lost love from a more innocent time."

lyrics

You keep walking, I keep trying to catch up to you
I'm sunk up to my kneecaps through the floor
You're always going just around the corner
So I only see your one heel, nothing more

And all the while I'm dying like I'm living
In slow motion with my postromantic bloodshot-eyed devotion
I never used to be scared of the ocean

Lace up my boots, put one foot out of the door
Feel the warmth of the sun, don't live in darkness anymore
Or try to do without it for a while

I keep leaving you a daily trail of breadcrumbs
But the sparrows eat them up before you wake
Maybe something up there's trying to protect us
I guess those sparrows need it more, anyway

I'm unemployed, I'm paranoid, I'm missing
Your attention to my postromantic sorry situation
That's probably just in my imagination

Lace up my boots…

Split an orange into 2 so we can share it
Creaking door hinge let me know you're home at 3
I grew 4 inches, see the etches on the doorframe
5 gold finches, one for each year I've been free

I know it's fine, I know it's mine, it might be
That it's genius, it's a postromantic jaded kinda Jesus
Who writes the rhymes and throws the lines between us

Lace up my boots…
