about

“Skylar is the second track on the EP. We first released this as a single almost a year ago to the day. I came up with a little lick that I could not get out of my head, and that’s how the song began! It ends with a jam on that same melody, and I could not be happier with how it turned out.

The lyrics are all about driving. Getting in the car and just going anywhere has always been a huge release for me. I feel unnervingly comfortable and calm behind the wheel of a car. The song starts out with the line ‘I’ve got clauses again from gripping the wheel too tight when I’m driving.’ It’s a statement about how I’m always in my car, holding on tight to the wheel, thinking about something I probably shouldn’t be thinking about. It’s all about an escape from the mind. My car’s name is Skylar, hence the song title.”
- Linsi

lyrics

I've got calluses again
From gripping the wheel too tight
When I'm driving
I'm going too fast, you used to hate that
I just want to get there on time
For once in my fucking life

Another mile marker
Another town I'll never visit
I'm westward bound

When I wake up from my hotel sleep
Or lack there of, I'm going to figure out
Not what I want but what I need
I'm spending the entire drive in my head
Wishing you were here
But then remembering that I want you dead

Another state line
Another county road
There's now turning back now
I'm not going home
