sweet talk, convenience & lies

from sweet talk, convenience & lies by Le Bas-fond

about

It was, perhaps, the purest love I had ever known or will know.

This comes from the purest and most loving place possible.

Sometimes, the most loving thing you can do for someone is to hold them accountable for the ways that they’ve hurt you. Even if you don’t (know if you) still love this person, you can take the love you had for the person that you did love, the person they were, and respect that love enough to stop rewarding certain behaviours. I couldn’t give double infinity. I can only live the most honest way possible, for better or for worse. I acted honestly and out of love.

I prioritized the feelings of others before my own because I always want what’s best for everyone, no matter what it means for me. But I have to allow myself this one moment where I hold myself accountable for my feelings, to allow myself to have them fully, and take as much time as I need to--for however long it takes, to grieve things that once made me feel pure and safe and whole, now make me feel filthy. I own them, I own my role in this. And I own my grieving. I’m allowed to, after everything, to have this moment of grief, because that’s exactly what it is.

lyrics

You touched everything I love
I’ll never be the same

Losing all that I am
Been through the wringer so now I don’t
fuck around

The way I loved you
Could be no match for
The truth about you

Don’t think I don’t know
That you used my body
Just to make yourself feel better

Would you look atchu now
Ain’tchu a bad go better

And you took all you wanted
And you met all your needs
And when it came to my turn
There was nothing left for me

I touched everything you love
You’ll never be same

All that you are:
A foundation of sweet talk,
Convenience & lies

The truth about you
Is uglier than the filth
You say about me

Say what you want
Say what you will
You’ll never not dream about me

When you want a good girl
But you need a bad pussy




And you took all you wanted
And you met all your needs
And when it came to my turn
There was nothing left for me

And now you try to shame me
I feel it in my sex
And when it came to my turn
There was nothing left

Good riddance to bad rubbish
Grandma always said

Doesn’t make it hurt less
Doesn’t bring the town back

Too bad too bad too bad
There’s nothing left

Too bad too bad
Into the Highland Mist
