about

Single from Swedish singer songwriter Mi Von Ahn.
Taken from upcoming album "reverie"

Mi about the song “damaged goods”. -The wanting to continue to push oneself to the limit and the inability to understand the signals when body, brain and soul capitulate from exhaustion and the one and only task becomes to get through the day. But acceptance and recovery await somewhere beyond the murky horizon - it's like this right now and it's okay.

lyrics

damaged goods - lyrics

to lay here and stare at the ceiling is hard enough to breath isn't even on my mind
it doesn't show on the outside
like i'm not allowed to feel
but i'm alright i'm alright
i'm alright
i'm alright
for once i tried to go unscripted
ended up bedbound for days
it's hard quiting the pills
i guess i'm just damaged goods like all the rest but i'm alright
i'm alright i'm alright i'm alright i'm alright
the knot around the lungs is tighter all that comes out is wheezing tunnel vision, blinking lights
all the talk is just noise
but i'm alright i'm alright
i'm alright
i'm alright
i'm alright i'm alright

about

Mi von Ahn Sweden

Swedish singer/songwriter Mi von Ahn back with new second album “reverie” March 25, 2022.

Mi von Ahn creates suggestive and ambient indiepop with a barren and beautiful melancholy.
The lyrics are permeated by the down-to-earth seriousness that characterizes her person.

Clash Magazine describes the music as "Driving, inspiring, and moving ..." and draws parallels to The War On Drugs. ... more
