Arlo Parks Senses Lyrics

[Intro: Arlo Parks]
Is it better than, is it better than nothing?
Is it better than, is it better than nothing?

[Verse 1: Arlo Parks]
"I have always dulled my senses"
I told Lae when she checked in
Hid myself in art and women
Needed things to reach towards

[Pre-Chorus: Arlo Parks]
But now I'm here
Feelin' super bad about it
Tryna find the courage
Turnin' up the shower on cold
If I tell you that I'm tryin'

[Chorus: Arlo Parks, Sampha, Both]
Is it better than, is it better than—
I can't find no love, no love for myself
Is it better than, is it better than—
I can't find no love, no love for myself
Is it better than, is it better than—
I can't find no love, no love for myself

[Verse 2: Arlo Parks]
Treat myself with this impatience
I would never give a friend
Sometimes when I cycle later
Wish I'd disappear at speed [Pre-Chorus: Arlo Parks]
But now I'm here
Feelin' super bad about it
Finally admit it
And I maybe I asked you to feel better
If I tell you that I'm sorry

[Chorus: Arlo Parks, Sampha, Both]
Is it better than, is it better than—
I can't find no love, no love for myself
Is it better than, is it better than—
I can't find no love, no love for myself
Is it better than, is it better than—
I can't find no love, no love for myself

[Post-Chorus: Sampha]
I can't find no love, no love for myself
No love for myself

[Outro: Sampha]
Spread on thin ice
Trick of the mind
Hardens your feelings (Woah)
The world was on fire (On fire)
Yet I turn away, away (Turn, turning)
Swimmin' in ice (Swim)
I swim for my love, away from the demons (Oh)
But the clarity lies in the direction of pain
Ooh-ooh, the flames
