about

“I just want to cling to the pain” is the poignant lyric that encompasses the emotion of ‘Marinate.’ Inspired by the agony of heartbreak, the song weaves the story of being unable to let go of a past relationship. Choosing to embrace the torment of a broken heart, Lynnae delivers the song with an emotional conviction that draws parallels to her influences, like Julia Michaels, Demi Lovato and Birdy.
Through delicate acoustic guitars and atmospheric strings, Vandi Lynnae’s angelic vocals guide the song with intensity and clarity, bringing the track to life. As a slow ballad, the introduction of drums adds to the cinematic presence, while ethereal harmonies capture the essence of a heavy heart. Lynnae reflects on the memories of a happier time, savouring every moment, despite how much it hurts. The instrumentation in ‘Marinate’ is sparse in places, highlighting the emptiness of a hollow heart, which allows Lynnae’s moving vocals to shine through. While the song remains a sentimental pop song, Lynnae’s stylistic retro vibes, create something unique and personal.

lyrics

Marinate
By Vandi Enzor

Verse 1:
How can a heart be restored?
I think I need a little more
Of something I’ve tried and tried
But I can’t seem to find
How can a heart be made whole?
When it used to be so full
Now there’s just an empty hole
In this hollow chest of mine

PC:
If a breeze blew through it, it couldn’t seep away
All the memories of yesterday

Chorus:
I don’t wanna feel good
I don’t wanna feel hope today
I don’t want to feel loved
I just want to cling to the pain
Just let me feel mad, let me feel bad, let me feel glad for what we had
I wanna feel sad today
I don’t wanna forget
So let me marinate-in the pain

Verse 2:
How can a love be restored?
When both hearts have already been broken
Words that have been spoken
They can’t be unsaid
How can a love be made whole?
When it’s been ripped apart
Can the pieces be collected-would it be effective?
When they’re just little shards

PC2:
These hands are covered in scars
From holding leftover slivers too tight
As I draw the blinds to shut out the light
Cause I don’t want to see
The mess you left of me

Chorus:
I don’t wanna feel good
I don’t wanna feel hope today
I don’t want to feel loved
I just want to cling to the pain
Just let me feel mad, let me feel bad, let me feel glad for what we had
I wanna feel sad today
I don’t wanna forget
So let me marinate-in the pain

Bridge:
I turned off the phone
I just need to be alone
Don’t knock on my door
I won’t get up off this floor
I don’t know if I can feel anymore

Chorus:
I don’t wanna feel good
I don’t wanna feel hope today
I don’t want to feel loved
I just want to cling to the pain
Just let me feel mad, let me feel bad, let me feel glad for what we had
I wanna feel sad today
I don’t wanna forget
So let me marinate-in the pain
