Why does this song seem strangely appropriate?


Let Me Go
Cake

When she walks,
She swings her arms
Instead of her hips.
When she talks,
She moves her mouth
Instead of her lips.

And I've waited for her for so long
I've waited for her for so long
I've wondered if I could hang on
I wonder if I could hang on

"Let me go."
She said, "Let me go."
She said, "Let me go,
And I will want you more."
"Let me go,
Let me go,
Let me go,
And I will want you..."

When she wants,
She wants the sun
Instead of the moon
When she sees,
She sees the stars
Inside of her room.

And I've waited for her for so long
I've waited for her for so long
I've wondered if I could hang on
I wonder if I could hang on

"Let me go."
She said, "Let me go."
She said, "Let me go,
And I will want you more."
"Let me go,
Let me go,
Let me go,
And I will want you..."
