Cool For A Second

Ralphe.co.nz Yumi Zouma is a NZ artist that deserves global attention. 'Cool For A Second' is statement that does not reflect my love for their music, because they were definitely 'cool for several hours'. Not only is their sound polished to fine perfection, with vocals in vain of Moloko meets Echosmith, but the synths too give it a tinge of Stranger Things nostalgia. I could (and have binged) watch their French Cinema music videos for hours. A délicieuse body of work offered! Review by Ralphe.co.nz.

lyrics

Verse I
It’s earnestly said,
My resolution is dead
if you refuse to see the sunlight
Moving through defenseless front lines
I keep on finding your hair
A constant presence of fear
And difficulties more unknown
The air is thicker where I’m going

Prechorus
It’s not a dark situation
I’d rather tumble than be taking it slow
I had a hard time figuring out
It was no wonder why you go

Chorus
Omissions never flare, they go out if you let them
Changing every year, I was cool for a second
Find me in the fall, swept underneath
Forgetting every charm, took a bullet together
You could pull apart, so I’d never remember
The image that would call you back to me

Verse II
Four months and a day
What other sucker would wait
For someone else to take advantage
When all you give is took for granted
A long-distance brawl
Or sympathetically called
Consideration taken daily
To think that you would hope to shake me

Prechorus
It was a bad hesitation
A little stumble in the back of your soul
Another hard time alone in yourself
It was a step too far to know

Bridge
Whatever I can do, you go treat me indifferent
A flicker of appeal, wouldn't kill you to give in
Another little dream falls at my feet

Chorus
Omissions never flare, they go out if you let them
Changing every year, I was cool for a second
Find me in the fall, swept underneath
Forgetting every charm, took a bullet together
You could pull apart, so I’d never remember
The image that would call you back to me
