Our Bodies memilih tidak menawarkan ketenangan lewat “Tastebud”, melainkan mendobrak langsung ke persimpangan antara jatuh cinta dan kesadaran bahwa selama ini kita sering bersembunyi dari hidup yang sebenarnya ingin dijalani.
Gitar elektrik berkilau di atas tekstur yang sedikit kasar, ditopang ritme yang bergulir konsisten, membangun energi yang terasa lapang sekaligus mendesak. Aransemennya terus mendorong ke depan, cocok dengan tema lagu yang bicara soal berhenti ragu dan mulai bergerak.
Liriknya menemukan titik jujurnya saat beralih dari euforia jatuh cinta ke pengakuan yang lebih rentan. “I want to be bold again, don’t you want to be bold again” terasa seperti ajakan sekaligus tantangan pada diri sendiri, sementara baris “telling my friends when I’m in pieces” jadi momen paling telanjang, mengakui bahwa meminta bantuan bukan tanda kelemahan.
Our Bodies lewat “Tastebud” berhasil mengubah kepanikan jadi semacam janji pada diri sendiri, sebuah lagu yang bikin siapa pun ingin sedikit lebih berani, meski tangan masih gemetar saat melangkah.
Lirik Lagu Our Bodies – Tastebud
Verse 1 When she takes out her anger on my tastebuds There’s a look in her eyes like she’s sent from above To avenge all the deaths of 90s Rearrange my brain to your liking From the tone through the speakers I think I’m in love And the room’s vibrating, it’s better than drugs The goosebumps turned into floating And my pulse on the brink of exploding Pre So tell me again Tell me again, tell me again Why you choose hesitation There’s a wonderful life you’re evading Give your fear to the wolves, be impatient So tell me again Tell me again, tell me again Why you’re scared to be broken Look me straight in the eyes if you want to be brave We’re not spending another minute afraid Chorus Of tearing off clothes and losing our money Moving back home when dreams fall from me I want to be bold again Don’t you want to be bold again Giving myself my own life’s reason And telling my friends when I’m in pieces I want to be whole again And I’ll never let go again Verse 2 She’s the break in the wave She’s the water on Mars Every grain of decay vacates in response I know I’m her only opponent Nothing else comes close, it’s a motherfucking joke I can’t help myself Can’t hold the applause When you look like lightning I’m carried off It’s a voice of an angel I wake to Saying life won’t wait for your breakthrough Pre So tell me again Tell me again, tell me again Why you choose hesitation There’s a wonderful life you’re evading Give your fear to the wolves, be impatient So tell me again Tell me again, tell me again Why you’re scared to be broken Look me straight in the eyes if you want to be brave We’re not spending another minute afraid Chorus Of tearing off clothes and losing our money Moving back home when dreams fall from me I want to be bold again Don’t you want to be bold again Giving myself my own life’s reason And telling my friends when I’m in pieces I want to be whole again And I’ll never let go again Bridge How dare I let fear tell me how to love you No one’s made me feel less afraid As we’re sitting in the dark, and you’re tryna scare me off As we’re going through your motions babe Chorus Tearing off clothes and losing our money Moving back home when dreams fall from me I want to be bold again Don’t you want to be bold again Giving myself my own life’s reason And telling my friends when I’m in pieces I want to be whole again And I’ll never let go again
