Safer Space - Forever Emerald

Safer Space - Forever Emerald
3:56
Safer Space, 2019
Written by Forever Emerald?

This song is from a California-based power pop-punk group.  It appears to be describe a fiery relationship that is in the throes of what might be a breakup or a revelation.  The narrator comes off as aloof and jaded, but is deeply invested in the lover. "But I'm critical, and I'm cynical / You're the cure to my disdain / I might be livid / But I'm still listening."  The emo lyrics, driving drums, and Devin Papadol's pure but powerful and confident female vocals remind me of another young pop-punk group I enjoy, Meet Me @ the Altar.
