about

“Bluets” is a track inspired by Maggie Nelson’s book Bluets. Blue has always been a color that catches the attention of the band and that they gravitate towards. This song is about Enrique’s time in Chicago and about the bushels of Bluets planted outside his building. This was written at the beginning of the COVID-19 quarantine as Enrique reminisced on past memories of better times. This song is about being stuck inside your memories and how that holds you back from enjoying the things you should be paying attention to now. How Enrique keeps going back to the memories of these Bluets beating through his head instead of focusing on new moments. It’s about the pain that goes along with memories we love and trying to let that go while still appreciating what they gave you.

lyrics

I always miss
My feelings past
I circle back
Bluets beating from outside
Bluets beating
My heart hurts
My heart still hurts.

(Ooh ooh ooh)

I buried you
For something new
I won’t need you here one day
Bluets beating from inside
Bluets beating
My heart's worse
My heart feels worse.

(Ooh ooh ooh)

Took the train too far
I’m walking on my scars
To where you are

Through my crooked view
My garden's losing you
My beating blue

(Blue blue blue)
(Blue blue blue)
