The second single off of Perfume Genius’ second album, Put Your Back N 2 It has arrived and includes his mother and boyfriend as characters. The song is about a bleak period in his mother’s life.

The hands of god/ were bigger than grandpa’s eyes/ but still he broke the elastic on your waist/ But he’ll never break you baby/ The hands of god/ were bigger than grandpa’s eyes/ but he is long gone / The love you feel is strong / the love you feel is stronger/ I will take the dark parts/ of your heart into my heart
