Write a song in the style of Arlo Parks that blends intimate poetry, understated R&B and indie-pop warmth, Start with soft, breathy vocals—almost spoken-word—in a lo‑fi bedroom pop setting, with warm guitar, mellow bass, subtle percussion and vinyl crackle or tape hiss for texture, Keep verses reflective and empathetic, exploring themes like mental health, queer love, self‑discovery, grief and hope, Include vivid sensory detail: colours, smells, textures, small everyday gestures, Gradually shift into a gentle chorus with lush harmonies or a calm swell of synths or strings, then return to the quiet intimacy, Use lyrical simplicity that feels conversational and honest—as if writing in a journal, comforting yet wise, Structure: verse → pre‑chorus gentle lift → chorus warm release → verse → subtle bridge → final chorus fading to intimacy

(Spoken off mic: “Take that… uhm”) I always said you was an Angel With kiss me eyes and your Prada bag But you was always one step out of touch What a shame it was about that Time went marching onwards But our life stayed much the same I thought I saw you come towards me Before you drifted more and more and more and more and more away Why’d you have to do it Angel Why’d you have to go now Angel I keep on fighting Angel Just to forget about it Angel You always said we’d never make it I didn’t believe you then but I’m wiser now And when you was gone I just couldn’t take it, yeah I let myself get down and down and down and down Life’s a bitch Angel You couldn’t handle it Angel I keep on burning Angel Just to forget about it Angel And it gets harder every day The nights are long the rats have got my brain It doesn’t matter what they say I’ve got to put myself away (Instrumental break) And it gets harder every day The nights are long the rats have got my brain It doesn’t matter what they say I’ve got to put myself away I always said you was an Angel I wouldn’t go that far now I wouldn’t cry for you I wouldn’t die for you I wouldn’t live that far down I’m gonna ride across the water I’m gonna sink in the sand I’m gonna see the Sun I’m gonna be the one I’m gonna screw all your friends (Spoken off mic "D'ya wanna do it again?")
