Wy - Free Saturday (“FL&R”)

     Finding songs that can be legally downloaded is easy. The difficult task is to find legally downloadable music that we recommend. Our plan is to post at least one Free, Legal and Recommended (FL&R) song each Saturday.
    Wy is comprised of longtime lovers Ebba and Michel, from Malmö, Sweden. “Softie” is the title track of their 2019 album. The album is a statement on the turbulence of human existence, written from Ebba's experience of being bipolar. With clarity in emotion and unapologetic use of lyrics, it's an important record in more ways than one way. “Softie” was released via Hybris/Beatnik.

Lyrics of “Softie” by Wy
I just wanna tell you how I feel
But I don’t talk about my misery
To you, to no one
Don’t wanna drag you in
I just try to tell you how I deal
With all the shit I think
All the dark I see
And how I push through anyway
I do it all for you
I break my back for you
It's all I wanna do

I feel like a shell of a person
some new version of me
something you didn’t think
I would be

Can’t act like I care
Can’t tell you enough
You’re enough
Can’t bring myself to say loud that I love you
I just hope you know

I am tired of feeling in control
Being good and being pure
It’s overrated
Complicated
And I’m off my meds now
And I’m doing it again
And it’s getting harder acting like a friend

Can’t act like I care
Can’t tell you enough
You’re enough
Can’t bring myself to say loud that I love you
I just hope you know

I just hope you know
I just hope it shows
I’m trying harder
I’m trying harder than before
I just hope you know

I just hope it shows
I’m trying harder
I’m trying harder than before

I just hope you know
I just hope you know
I just hope you know
I just hope you know
