about

I wrote this song a couple of years ago in a time where I was acting purely on emotion, getting overwhelmed and then running away. In this particular situation, I ran away to Copenhagen with my flatmate. The song came to me in the blue shower in our little blue airbnb. I could have sworn the smell of the shampoo was the exact same as the one used by a person I had cared deeply for, and suddenly I was back sitting in the street next to them, crying and walking away, ultimately ending our relationship. I Meant What I Said is my little apology note, but I don’t know if they ever heard it. - Faye Rogers

lyrics

I’ve been running away, like I always do.
But the shampoo smelt like you and I fell back into the sinking in your eyes, When it rained and we both cried.
I shouldn’t let myself be so upset.
I know I’m the one who caused this. But I didn’t mean to,
I didn’t want to hurt you.
I hope I get to see you again.
But I understand if this has to be the end. I guess the tears will keep on falling ‘Cause you’re so kind and I can’t be.
I shouldn’t let myself be so upset.
I know I’m the one who caused this. But I didn’t mean to,
I didn’t want to hurt you.

The great underlying instrumentation paired with Florence's droll stream of consciousness lyrics make this album stand out. It feels so personal and confessional. Favorite tracks are Strong Feelings and Leafy. I've heard Scratchard Lanyard on alt radio and love that one as well. tofupotpie
