about
This indie rock track was written, recorded and produced in isolation. It is a high energy, upbeat song with abrasive production. The lyrics are best encapsulated by the line, "how I hope that you throw me off the roof - so I know what it's like to fall for you". With high energy, light distortion, and gritty vocals, the song explores the feelings of being in an intense and addictive relationship.
lyrics
Ladybug
You prick my finger and
I bleed on the rug
A little pain might be pleasure
But I know my little rituals
Won't make it any better
Take me away
Or push me further down the rabbit hole
Hold me in your grip
And I might break into your house
Close the door one more time
Pour me a glass of wine
I could drown in this dry lake
(This lake's pretty dry)
[Chorus]
How I hope that you throw me off the roof
So I know what it's like to fall for you
Dionysus, Demeter in bloom
Falling faster beneath the sickled moon
[Verse 2]
Ladybug
Oh, won't you crawl out from under thе rug?
You taste like berriеs, sweets, and marmalade
Oh, you know I don't have much use for sleep these days
Wrapped around my little finger
Take your time, feel free to linger
Lullaby, let me hear it again
[2nd Chorus]
How I hope that you throw me off the roof
So I know what it's like to fall for you
Dionysus, Demeter in bloom
Falling faster beneath the sickled moon
How I hope that you throw me off the roof
So I know what it's like to fall for you
Dionysus, Demeter in bloom
"Arise, fair sun, and kiss the elegant moon"
