Why Can't You Fall in Love?

by The Foxymorons

/

about

Our song “Why Can’t You Fall in Love?” is about our collective Instagram-era obsessions with perfection and consumerism. How we tend to fetishize shiny objects and IG feeds. Meanwhile, real love from imperfect humans is infinitely better than inanimate things that can’t love you back. Here’s wishing you lots of love.

lyrics

Although you got everything
Some things you don’t need though
Cashmere and vintage rings
And Aesop in the bathroom

Everybody wants some
And everybody needs to
What’s it all mean though
If no one even scrolls through?

Why can’t you fall in love
With someone who’s in love with you?
The things that you say you love
Will never love you back like I do

You got all the pretty things
And dudes who adore you
Dinner’s on the Instagram
A Topo with some tofu

Try and picture this
Hanging out in the afternoon
Tequila in the summer sun
Could that ever sound good to you?

Could that ever sound good to you?
Could that ever sound good to you?
Could that ever sound good to you?

Why can’t you fall in love
With someone who’s in love with you?
The things that you say you love
Will never love you back like I do
Why can’t you fall in love
With someone who’s in love with you?
Why can’t you fall in love
Could I ever be enough for you?

Could I ever be enough?
Could I ever be enough?
Could I ever be enough?
Could I ever be enough?

Could I ever be enough?
Could I ever be enough? (Why can't you fall in love?)
Could I ever be enough?
Could I ever be enough? (Why can't you fall in love?)

(Why can't you fall in love?)
(Why can't you fall in love?)

The Foxymorons Mesquite, Texas

The band’s story began in the sun-baked suburb of Mesquite, Texas way back in the mid 90’s. High school friends, David Dewese and Jerry James, stumbled upon an abandoned drum kit in a Sunday School classroom while home on college holiday and a surreptitious recording entity was born. ... more
