Caroline Polachek - Look At Me Now Lyrics






Wrote myself a letter
Just a single question
When you finally get this
Where will you be?
Will you be a shipwreck or a star
Falling for a boy who doesn't play guitar?
Now rewind the tape back to the start
Said I'd never leave you, but here we are

And you can't look at me now
I haven't changed, I'm still the same
But you can't look at me now
A hand grenade to throw away

Now my friends all tell me
"Girl, you're getting skinny
Have you not been sleeping?"
How could I be?
Trying to find the lightswitch in the dark
Burying the good girl I know I'm not
Now rewind the tape back to the start
Said I'd never leave you, but here we are

And you can't look at me now
I haven't changed, I'm still the same
But you can't look at me now
A hand grenade to throw away

I can't run anymore
Gotta stay right here and face the storm
I can't run anymore
Where the wakeup call is all I know
I can't run anymore
(I can't run anymore)
Gotta stay right here and face the storm
I can't run anymore
(I can't run anymore)

You can't look at me now
I haven't changed, I'm still the same
But you can't look at me now
A hand grenade to throw away
Look at me now
(I can't run anymore)
You can't look at me now
(I can't run anymore)

Caroline Polachek Look At Me Now Comments
  1. D.... H....

    I’m astonished by her vocals!!

  2. T.... C....

    modern elven music <3

  3. C.... J....

    Yea, this girl here is the real deal. The pre-chorus takes me somewhere. Definitely somewhere, and its good.

  4. R.... Q....

    Reminds me of Imogen Heap but still your own style for sure, great work thinking about seeing the show in DTX

  5. P.... _....

    0:54 just the way she hits that note genuinely makes my life feel that much more fulfilled. What a voice!

  6. N.... B....

    What is this instrument she holds in the picture?

    N.... B....

    It's a Martin Backpacker. It's the same as a regular guitar (6 strings, same tuning), but I dont think it has an official worldly name, like a eukalele or mandolin. It looks like it does because it's meant for travelling (hence the name). ;) Hope this helps!

  7. A.... M....

    Why does this song make me so emotional 😭😭

  8. T.... S....

    This aint Chris Brown...

  9. O.... S....

    This song is like a warm hug and in fact the entire album of Pang is! Easily became one of my favorite artists in a really long time .

  10. M.... C....

    If you are not just a dream... then here take this.. I am now a shadow. http://www.eilistraee.com/chosen/language.php

  11. M.... C....

    See what I see , fingers \/ birds are our friends. https://youtu.be/bV-hSgL1R74 Love you my cle.

  12. d.... b....

    Compared to others they look "obtuse"
    While your form alone makes a grandure impression that idealy "something something word word"
    Cant exspain it
    A no bullshit impression maybe is what im thinking for now.

  13. M.... C....

    https://youtu.be/ZmHVLIIjDaM You better get ready while your panties drip, or go play with your coloring book.

  14. M.... C....

    PatrickReza - Take Me Away (ft. Jilian)

  15. M.... C....

    Skinny replaced with horny.

  16. M.... C....

    You can look at me now.

  17. M.... C....

    call is calls

  18. M.... C....

    mind going faster , burying the good girl in my heart. is what I am signing.

  19. M.... C....

    skinny is smaller

  20. M.... C....

    Can and can switching around.

  21. M.... C....

    Look at me now but I am singing look at us now. when doing this with anyone slow down and speak what they say at there pace even though the words do not make sense.

  22. M.... C....

    Who am I... I am Kyluke, I am Kencade, I am Charoum... If dos seeks me with evil in your eyes then expect a fight... I am naut Ryuke, not, not yet. https://youtu.be/Vz3flHeTDXM

  23. p.... b....

    she's like the mystical version of Marina and the Diamonds.

  41. n.... ....

    Please do a multi-layered/noisy version of this song, it’d be a very beautiful & interesting variation I imagine. Patrick or Jorge or Kurt remix perhaps?

    D.... S....

    D.... S....

    @Dominic Snyder i mean it adds up to 7/4 but the way the claps and kicks are arranged makes me feel like it would be written as 6/8 + 4/4

  52. M.... A....

    this song got me dehydrated from all the tears

  53. J.... B....

    She’s like if Shania Twain was an alien

  54. j.... ....

    Iconic Level Achieved!

  65. W.... ....

    i'm screaming and crying

  66. A.... R....

    This reminds me so much of Imogen Heap/Frou Frou, but in its own style! I'm very lucky to come across her today, I'm in love!! <3

  67. K.... ....

    wow this is gorgeous! love the odd time signature

  68. J.... P....

    It sometimes takes me years to hear or look up lyrics – my brain is kinda hardwired to take in the sonic totality of a song, and that means missing the words quite often. With that said, some of the lyrics in "Look At Me Now" struck me instantly before even watching this video.


    Caroline's words have helped me get through some of my worst times and will clearly continue to. <3

  69. b.... ....

    I found you about a week ago and I’m impressed by the skill you have as a musician and artist in general.

    Imogen Heap's Little Sister.
