Riff: Lily Allen – “Everything to Feel Something”

Jun 11, 2018

I’m at my worst when I’m alone/Can’t take the peace/So my glass is always half empty/Someone fill it up for me

from Everything to Feel Something lyrics by Lily Allen

She’s delving deep into the darkness, revisiting the low moments from her past. All the alcohol, drugs and partying left her feeling numb and she had to do some heavy soul-searching to feel love again. It was the most difficult thing she had to overcome with the toughest part being the cold isolation. Now that she’s broken through she’s hoping she can stay afloat by taking one day at a time.
