Favourite lyrics in Manic by Halsey
Ashley: "Is it really that strange if I always wanna change?"
clementine: "I don't need anyone, I just need everyone and then some"
Graveyard: "It's funny how, the warning signs can feel like they're butterflies"
You should be sad: "You can't love nothing unless there's something in it for you"
Forever ... (is a long time): "And weightless, breathless restitute, motionless and absolute. He cut me open, sucked the poison from an aging wound"
Dominic's Interlude: "Your eyes are open when you kiss him"
I HATE EVERYBODY: "Infatuation's observation with a cause"
3am: "I'll take fake moans and dial tones, let 'em spill right down the microphone"
Without Me: "Found you when your heart was broke, I filled your cup until it overflowed"
Finally // beautiful stranger: "I've never seen a mouth that I would kill to kiss"
Alanis' Interlude: "Your pussy is a wonderland"
killing boys: "Tell me, have you ever keyed a Ferrari before?"
SUGA's Interlude: (Translated from Korean) "The dawn before sunrise is darker than anything, but never forget the stars you hope for only appear in the dark"
More: "A flower bud in concrete"
Still Learning: "In the crowd you're readin' my lips, but no one around me knows- Who I am, what I'm on, who I've hurt and where they've gone"
929: "I remember the names of every single kid I've met, but I forget half the people who I've gotten in bed"
The sharp intake of breath in Graveyard.
The electric guitar solo(s) in You should be sad.
Every other lyric in Alanis' Interlude, and the fact that Alanis features in this album.
Megan Fox's voice clip from Jennifer's Body (2009) in killing boys.
All of the emotion conveyed in More.
The clips of Ashley talking in 929, it's so cute that she thought she was born at 9.29 on 9/29. Along with the fact that all the lyrics are a one take stream of consciousness.
All things said and done I think Ashley is an amazing lyricist and this album is so raw and beautiful and messy and Manic.
