about

A song about falling for the wrong person, just because of science.

lyrics

Oxytocin

Skin on skin
is just another way to get close to you but we
don’t have a choice, for round two
I could see this going somewhere
But that’s a place that I
I don’t want to be.

For the promise of another night,
for the promise of another life
where we love, and we hate
and we repeat the cycle over and over.

It’s like I’m caught between reality and the fantasy of you.
What can I do?
This oxytocin is fuelling my emotions and it’s
getting to me x3

This time alone, has given me the room I need to grow
and that’s something I can’t forego
I’m already thinking about, how to heal his wounds before my own
I should have known, I should’ve known
‘Cause I do this all the time.

For the promise of another night,
for the promise of another life
where we love, and we hate
and we repeat the cycle over and over.

It’s like I’m caught between reality and the fantasy of you.
What can I do?
This oxytocin is fuelling my emotions and it’s
getting to me x3
