about
A Very Hot Shower "and a very clean shave / two eyes painted like razorblades" – is a song about finding strength among the wreckage of trauma, and seeking bravery as someone who is constantly being told that she is right to be afraid. It is the first single off upcoming sophomore LP "Sword Songs".

lyrics
A very hot shower and a very clean shave
Two eyes painted like razorblades
The only lie I'll tell is that I am not afraid
I am not afraid
You were always on my mind
Bad blood and an early grave
I will climb my laddered tights
And I will
I will
I will get up on that stage
Singing:
Hold me closer
Tiny dancer
Teach me to be
Small and brave
Sometimes my mind doesn't do what I want it to
Sometimes I'm so afraid
Sometimes I try writing love songs
But I just can't think all that much about love
When the touch that I believe that I am bound to receive
Is burned in my brain and in my blood
You were always on my mind
Goose-pimpled skin and an early grave
I will climb my laddered tights
And I will
I will
I will get up on that stage
Singing:
Hold me closer
Tiny dancer
Teach me to be
Small and brave
Sometimes my mind doesn't do what I want it to
Sometimes I'm so afraid
Two eyes painted like razorblades
The only lie I'll tell is that I am not afraid
I am not afraid
You were always on my mind
Bad blood and an early grave
I will climb my laddered tights
And I will
I will
I will get up on that stage
Singing:
Hold me closer
Tiny dancer
Teach me to be
Small and brave
Sometimes my mind doesn't do what I want it to
Sometimes I'm so afraid
Sometimes I try writing love songs
But I just can't think all that much about love
When the touch that I believe that I am bound to receive
Is burned in my brain and in my blood
You were always on my mind
Goose-pimpled skin and an early grave
I will climb my laddered tights
And I will
I will
I will get up on that stage
Singing:
Hold me closer
Tiny dancer
Teach me to be
Small and brave
Sometimes my mind doesn't do what I want it to
Sometimes I'm so afraid

Aye Nako play amazing trans/queer pop punk music and you will love this album because it is very good.
go to album -
Alyssa Kai's "Contingency" is very peculiar and wildly beautiful and you should probably go for a walk and listen to the whole thing from start to finish.
