When I was in middle and high school, I really connected with Marinaās song Teen Idle. And now, at 25 ā no longer a teenager, but still sad ā she releases this masterpiece, just when I needed a grown-up version of that song. Thank you, Marina, for putting words to emotions I canāt even explain to myself. I always send songs to my friends hoping theyāll understand me a little more, but they rarely listen or read the lyrics. So if you ever do take the time to listen ā know that this song is everything Iām carrying in my heart right now. I really am an oyster without a pearl
