Human Nature 02:13
Human nature doesn’t always come easy You can watch it over and try to find a way to teach me She doesn’t need me, god it’s so appealing But it hurts now, just a little bit Brushed your hair back, with the pin snap, loosely falling through When’d you learn that, how to braid flat, you sort of always knew Human nature doesn’t always come easy You can watch it over and I'll find a way to teach me Drain the bath down my back, palms on the white top Drop my head on my leg, soft on a weak spot Human nature of a woman like you You could look at my kind like a thing you never knew What are you gonna do How do you do what you do

Drag 02:11
I never was so good before I never was so good before I’m gonna be a drag I think I’m gonna find you later I’m gonna be a drag I’m gonna cross the water She’s got you so going You don’t realize it She’s got you so going Don’t know if you’ll find it I’m gonna be a drag I think I’m gonna find you later I’m gonna be a drag I’m gonna cross the water I’m on your wifi two blocks away You never came up with a better name I’m gonna be a drag (gonna a be a drag) I think I’m gonna find you later (find you later) I’m gonna be a drag (gonna a be a drag) I’m gonna cross the water

I know when to go I know when to go Take my time down the hall, with my eyes up on the wall I hear my shoes and I hear my sigh, I watch myself walk out from the light Clovers in my eyes, the way the light falls on the bus on the way home Clovers in my eyes, trying to stay awake, trying to stay away Lying down on the grass, clover bed under my back Close my eyes in the middle of the day, close my eyes and it feels just the same Clovers in my eyes, the way the light falls on the bus on the way home Clovers in my eyes, trying to stay awake, trying to stay away Back seat of the last bus, the city in a blackout Clovers in my eyes, the way the light falls on the bus on the way home Clovers in my eyes, trying to stay awake, trying to stay away

You give some and you take a little It works out sometimes better than others Oh never got my chance to say it Oh but I can be so cruel Oh the light in Chinatown tonight Those are weaker days When I talk to you, when I say your name I can’t tell if I fell back asleep Those were weaker days, when I talked to you Sitting on a sink in the boys room Ducking their head to get their hair cut Nothing on the neck, nothing on the side It comes off so easy Oh the light in Chinatown tonight Those were weaker days When I talked to you, when I say your name I can’t tell if I fell back asleep Those were weaker days, when I talked to you

about

Happy To Be Here (Ext) is Barrie’s new, four song EP, which marks the end to the Happy To Be Here chapter. The release includes two new singles that were tracked primarily during the album sessions. “Drag” is perhaps the most encompassing track Barrie Lindsay has crafted to date, with lush harmonies that drive home the chorus’ infectious hook. “Human Nature” is pure vibe, meandering between bubbling synths and an RnB beat over Barrie's subtle, yet sultry storytelling. The two Alt versions of album favorites “Clovers” & “Chinatown" highlight Barrie’s versatile musicianship, featuring thoughtful layers of cello & trumpet that she played and recorded in her New York apartment.
