New Sensation

from Is There Only One? by Lena Fayre

about

My story for this album: "I wish I could say that she is the other woman, but in fact I am. What you see on the EP cover is a real Instagram photo of the real girl taken by the real boy who inspired this collection of music. She isn't me; I will never be her. Obsession, possession, denial, heartbreak landed me in a position to write and express my way through a difficult situation. He chose her. The songs of "Is There Only One?" reflect my state of mind as I processed, questioned, and eventually found peace with such a visceral experience with rejection. This led me to think about the structure of relationships, attachment, and how the modern romance is diluted or enhanced by social media. Sometimes the things we do in the name of lust or love forsake reason and logic. We have the most hope despite our knowledge. I had the most hope."

lyrics

NEW SENSATION By Lena Fayre

Know that I am happy now
Sitting on your phone, all alone
Cuz I’m on it

Know that I am happy now
Sitting on your phone, all alone
But I’m on it

When you know that everybody needs you
When you know that everybody wants you
When you know that everybody sees you

Why you be so sad?
Baby feels it all cuz he’s just so honest
Why you be so sad?
Love you but I got no time to promise

I been doing all the things I know just how to do
And yes, I am on it
Taking all my time to do exactly what I do
Guess I am on it

Oh, boy you are out of your mind
Oh, this is a new sensation
Oh, boy you been out of my mind
Oh, I am a new sensation

Know that I am happy now
Didn’t need you then, as a friend
I don’t want it

Know that I am happy now
Couldn’t keep it then cuz you know
That I’m on it

When you think that everybody needs you
When you think that everybody wants you
When you think that everybody sees you

Why you be so sad?
Baby feels it all cuz he’s just so honest
Why you be so sad?
Love you but I got no time to promise

I been doing all the things I know just how to do
And yes, I am on it
Taking all my time to do exactly what I do
Believe I am on it

Oh, boy you are out of your mind
Oh, this is a new sensation
Oh, boy you been out of my mind
Oh, I am a new sensation

Oh, boy you are out of your mind
Oh, this is a new sensation
Oh, boy you been out of my mind
Oh, I am a new sensation
