“Escribí esta canción con uno de mis amigos más cercanos que conoce el interior de mi cerebro mejor que yo en este momento”. Con estas palabras, Gracie Abrams anunció el lanzamiento de su nueva canción “Difficult”, la cual fue creada en colaboración con el exitoso productor Aaron Dessner.

La pista íntima está dedicada a las luchas internas de Abram en varias áreas de la vida y no rehuye la vulnerabilidad abierta. Batería, bajo, piano y guitarra acústica forman el acompañamiento musical del melancólico sencillo e incrustan la vulnerabilidad honesta del cantante en un ambiente sombrío. En un unísono equilibrado de instrumentación y letra, “Difficult” se acelera a medida que se abordan la creciente frustración y el miedo.

 

Difficult

My double vision
Is only amplifyin’ everythin’ he isn’t
‘Til I feel less attached and bored to death, but listen
It’s no one’s fault, it’s just my terrible condition, mm
And I’ve been thinkin’
If I move out this year, I’ll feel my parents slippin’
Away and also, I’m just scared of that commitment
I really think sometimes there’s somethin’ that I’m missin’, mm

Oh, I know
Spiralin’ is miserable
I should probably go back home
Why does that feel difficult, difficult?
And oh, I hope
I wake up invisible
I’d be someone no one knows
I guess I’m just difficult

To name this feelin’
Would take a hundred thousand years, some kind of grievin’
But over what I never had, so I’ve been speakin’
To my therapist, I call her every weekend, mm
I meant to tell you
How I’ve hated how we left things when it fell through
‘Cause you were everythin’ to me, where did you run to?
Was it somethin’ that I said that colored you blue? Mm

Oh, I know
Spiralin’ is miserable

And oh, I hope
I wake up invisible
I’d be someone no one knows
I guess I’m just difficult, difficult

Difficult
Difficult

I’ve been drinkin’
And stayin’ up too late, relivin’ bad decisions
I thought eventually, my ranting here would fix it
I really think sometimes there’s somethin’ that I’m missin’ (Mm)

Oh, I know
Spiralin’ is miserable
I should probably go back home
Why does that feel difficult, difficult?
And oh, I hope
I wake up invisible
I’d be someone no one knows
I guess I’m just difficult, difficult
Oh, I know
Spiralin’ is miserable
I should probably go back home
Why does that feel difficult, difficult?
And oh, I hope
I wake up invisible
I’d be someone no one knows
I guess I’m just difficult, difficult
