lyrics

I’m picking words as I go
Holding my breath till I show
Building a fence for my sense
Looks like I’m ready to grow
And if you meet me tonight
Don’t let me out of your sight
I’m picking words as I go
I’m picking words as I go

Come out and give me a kiss
Be the one to teach me this
The wait is too much to take
And I’m starting to miss
The sounds you make at night
Grabbing my fingers so tight
I’m picking words as I go
I’m picking words as I go

You surely know how to take
Then my body starts to shake
Come up with tricks for your fix
Every time I take the bait
So if you call me again
I won’t pick up, I’ll pretend
You surely know how to take
You surely know how to take

It’s time to clean up the mess
Cuz I’m starting to love you less
No use in trying to seduce
Putting on a short dress
Love from the moment we met
There’s not an ounce of regret
You surely know how to take
You surely know how to take

I’m picking words as I go
Holding my breath till I show
Building a fence for my sense
Looks like I’m ready to grow
And if you meet me tonight
Don’t let me out of your sight
I’m picking words as I go

about

Σtella Athens, Greece

Σtella was born beside the sea and raised by a Canadian nanny who waterskied topless.

Her songs are non-standard pop deviations whose shimmering feel-good surfaces are anchored by a powerful undertow of melancholy.

Her two albums with Inner Ear Records – Σtella [2015] + Works For You [2017] – established her as one of the label’s best-selling artists and one of Greece’s most popular indie stars.
