lyrics

Anxie:
so im 20 years old and im spending my days
writing bullshit songs and being fucking gay
there’s no way out for me, i am stuck in this maze
Emma: There's got to be a better life
Anxie, Emma: All I want is to be your wife

Emma: Wake up!
Anxie: haven't i had enough?
Emma:
You gotta stop acting tough
There's no way but a way up
Anxie:
“be a good girl and good things will happen to you”
all my life i was lied to
Emma:
But you gotta wake up
See what you can do

Anxie:
my music won't pay the bills
oh, i almost got killed
gotta scrounge up what they've spilled
just dumb enough an idea to try
too kitsch to live, too niche to die
Emma:
Oh, darling
I'm sure we'll get by

Anxie, Emma:
You and I are gonna make it
You and I are gonna kill it
You and I can seize the moment
Never die, darling
You and I are gonna nail this
You and I are gonna win this
You and I can make it through this
You can cry, darling

Emma:
Even if you didn't have it in you
So you're UnPopular and unsafe
That's your superpower
Anxie, Emma: Set ablaze

Anxie:

Emma
im stuck with no way out
Emma: Be yourself and it's alright!
Anxie: well i gotta stay alive

Emma:

"Anxie
I know you'll never give up
Never change and don't back down
You're the only you around!"

Anxie, Emma:
It's just dialectics
And we can form a synthesis, baby
Get this
Anxie: I'm your Boogie, you're my Pop
Emma: But we're both fucked up
Pen this
Anxie: i'll turn you into song
so we can dance the night away
Emma: Darling, you can set ablaze!

Anxie, Emma:
You and I are gonna make it
You and I are gonna kill it
You and I can seize the moment
Never die, darling
You and I are gonna nail this
You and I are gonna win this
You and I can make it through this
You can cry, darling

Emma:
Even if you didn't have it in you
So you're UnPopular and unsafe
That's your superpower
Anxie, Emma: Set ablaze.

“Frankly, pop culture is a bit better at rocking people emotionally than the better chunk of the so-called fine arts.” - Kadono Kouhei, authour of ‘Boogiepop’

“...소위 팝컬쳐라 불리는 게 있다. 예술이라 하기엔 좀 그렇긴 한데 하여튼 사람의 마음을 뒤흔드는 점에 간해서는 어정쩡한 파인 아트보다 힘이 세기도 하는 놈이다.” - 카도노 코우헤이, '부기팝' 작가
