about

'Soft- An Epilogue' is a shimmery and reflective break up song, that combines upbeat and jangly guitars and strong narrative structure. Told from a place of retrospect, Hastings examines personal responsibility and frames an ending in light. - 'In all the ways he taught me to be hard, I hope I taught him to be soft'. Catchy as hell.

lyrics

He consumed chick peas, black beans and me
I thought he was pretty
I think he thought I was weak
He wore too much cologne
Spent too much alone
(But what I really mean)
Is not enough time with me

And in all the ways
he taught me to be hard
I hope I taught him to be soft
The only reason I am found
Is because first within him I got lost

He consumed Sartre’
gifted me philosophy
Yeah, he chewed me up real good
He consumed me
Unlike any before
Yeah he really knew me

A sudden crash to earth
Stripped me of all my worth
I was the only one to save me

And in all the ways
he taught me to be hard
I hope I taught him to be soft
The only reason I am found
Is because first within him I got lost

In the day times
He studied pharmacology
He said “I can make the drugs baby,
you just sing for me”
He was a libertine
Beautiful and broken dream
Caged alone, by his freedom
He thought it radical
I wanted him to stand still
Just for a minute here with me

And in all the ways
he taught me to be hard
I hope I taught him to be soft
The only reason I am found
Is because first within him I got lost

And in all the ways
he taught me to be hard
I hope I taught him to be soft
The only reason I am found
Is because first within him I got lost lost
Lost lost
Yes I was lost
