Anarch Arguably even more raw than there follow up album 'Softie'. Somehow Wy manage to combine sad, self-reflecting lyrics with catchy tunes and as always a hypnotic lead voice. It's a combination that is both uplifting and crushing at the same time. To those with mental health issues it will drag you up by the scruff of the neck as knowing you're not alone. There is always a danger that music like this could make matters worse.. but not with Wy.

stargazing robot A very hypnotic dream pop album, which cuts like a knife.
It's hard to pick a favorite track here. There's a lot of variety and range in the songs. The track "bathrooms" has such a nice minimalism going on, as if it escaped from the 80's in a cadillac.
Same goes for the haunting end track which is still growing on me.
Favorite track: Gone Wild.

Indolence 03:04
crying to cartoons in bed on my pillow of sadness in my teen angst hoodie I just try try try you try to rock my head to sleep your skin is damp and next to me they look at us mockingly like we're stuck together but I don't care care care I like us stuck together I like us stuck together I like us stuck together I like us stuck together
2.
believe me I've done it all maybe I should have let them in should have let someone in my hair sticks to the sweat on my chin and it's kind of poetic, but I don't know (what would I ever do?) you know about it, you know how I am and I cry about it, and I cry without it you know about me, you know that I scrape my knees on purpose sometimes and I cry about it and I cry without it (what would I ever do?) believe me I've done it all I thought I didn't look great with my clothes off like my bare skin was bruised and my thighs not slim enough and I couldn't care that my shoulders could lift things heavier than me (what would I ever do?) do enough oh, baby I'm not really there at all nothing gets me off oh, baby no one's half as good as us (what would I ever do?) you know about it, you know how I am and I cry about it, and I cry without it you know about me, you know that I scrape my knees on purpose sometimes and I cry about it and I cry without it (what would I ever do?) do enough (believe me, I've done it all) oh, baby I'm not really there at all (believe me, I've done it all) nothing gets me off (believe me, I've done it all) oh, baby no one's half as good as us (believe me, I've done it all)

Mental 03:05
Cheeks are flushed I cover up I think I'm okay with my body now How? At least when I'm not down and I throw up in my mouth and I hide it all How? time to let go of it I'm shameless and it makes sense I wrote it on my chest that I'm mental and I'm unfit and it all makes sense now I can't feed on adrenaline when you speak it smells like an energy drink and I can't run with feet that can't move all the weight in my ugly brain wanna sleep all day time to let go of it I'm shameless and it makes sense I wrote it on my chest that I'm mental and I'm unfit and it all makes sense now time to let go of it I'm shameless and it makes sense I wrote it on my chest that I'm mental and I'm unfit and it all makes sense now

I try to see the great in everything I see but I close my eyes I grieve the minutes that I try to keep I count them on my fingers instead I lift my head I decide that this time I'm okay and nights will never be as long as I made them to be I never said was a grateful friend I cry them out my tired eyes not strong enough to give it all to you I mean the words I scream in blurry ears the only thing I cannot hear I sleep enough to know I hate the dark I count the nights I stay awake I cry them out my tired eyes not strong enough to give it all to you I keep my feet up in the bed I hide my sad face in my hands but it makes me smile to think that people laugh at me when I can barely laugh at myself I cry them out my tired eyes not strong enough to give it all to you it all to you

Don't Call 03:02
Flickering things I'm getting sentimental looking through car windows and thinking of places I want to see where I want to be I cross my arms too much I apologise when I'm uncomfortable I'm not sorry anymore I hide from conversations please don't call I wont be there at all I feel a disconnection I build up walls around me I force myself to feel good but I don't have it on paper yet I'm not eligible just dreaming things impossible of being like everyone else exemplary finally the best But I I'm sure lost control And I I'm sure I'll lose them all please don't call please don't call please don't call I wont pick up

I watch those reality shows I leave my hair in the shower drain leave all my things on the floor pretending that I'm something more what if we both moved away do you think that would put things straight? my mom would call me insane and I would keep spending my money on stupid things because I want that privileged job, don't I I want to pay with pictures of my white face, don't I I wish I was someone that kids thought was real and strong but I'm a child with my hands over my ears don't trust my voice when I stumble trembling over strings I cut off so scared of boredom and catching dust but I will stay young forever, I never learn, I never trust not sane, but hopeful to stay tough I am ready on my knees to give it up don't care for being cool or looking dumb I feel too close but I am still not close enough because I want that privileged job, don't I I want to pay with pictures of my white face, don't I I wish I was someone that kids thought was real and strong but I'm a child with my hands over my ears don't trust a word I say

Kind 02:17
I used to cry over little things but now i just die inside and stay quiet for a while I lay on the floor and wait for you to see me and see that i'm sad and hold me and say "It gets better" I used to be pretty but I also used to be dumb and naive and think that these things wouldnt haunt me for years But they do and i try to be strong for everyone but i lose some battles somehow so tell me im brave tell me im kind and tell me that you will remember my face when you all move away it gets better

You + I 03:49 video
The softest boy with shining eyes I could not behave I could not contain myself and I messed him up like only I can do a part of me said "let him be" and I let him be mine my hands cannot hold the words from my tongue but I cannot speak enough and I can't shut myself up and I stare as I always do when I enter the room I cannot relate I don't know what I would say as they think and they talk about sex and I think about you and I think about what to do next wanna get out, wanna lie down, wanna go home again my hands cannot hold the words from my tongue but I cannot speak enough and I can't shut myself up

10 p.m. 04:21
all I wanted was normal I wanted us happy and photos of me when I smile genuinely I wanted to wake up one day and feel the sun on my face to put on my shoes and wash my hair when it's dirty and not think too much about what I could be or do better I'm too sad to be polite I play pretend that it's okay, that it's resolved and I'm not getting old I'm not getting older She wrote in my records that I could not meet her eye and they write about how easy I am to understand that my fingers are a little shaky but I'm so clear and so straight but they don't know how casual I am but I'm still here again and I worry about what will happen in the summertime when there's nothing to be sad about and they don't turn on the street lights until 10 p.m.

Gone Wild 04:32
what if my dog died when I was in tokyo what if dad died before I turned twenty-four in my head they all live forever and I could never let go I should have brought you more than my love some warm clothes for you love 'cause I couldn't keep you warm I couldn't keep you warm enough I don't want to have to pay for my sins 'cause you know that I'm broke and I only speak bullshit I'm sorry that I bother you with my friendship you know that I'm crude and you know that I'm selfish (okay?) so anti-social but can't stand to be alone I try to speak with bigger words when I pick up the phone nobody knows that I'm funny or kind don't know if they're blind or if I'm just hard to read can't be anything (no way) like dogs gone wild I'll love them anyway like dogs gone wild I'll love them anyway and I'm stuck thinking of last year again when I was making money and I was making friends what if I actually stayed in one mood but all I say is cruel and I'm red and I'm blue (okay?) am I dumb, or am I lame or too boring for her? I couldn't dance no matter where we were am I self-centered for thinking that they're leaving me? do I pretend to be lonely? do they care enough to see? do they give a fuck? (no way) like dogs gone wild I'll love them anyway like dogs gone wild I'll love them anyway maybe it's not me, babe maybe I'm almost sane maybe I'm almost okay
