Lizzy McAlpine - Pushing It Down And Praying Lyrics




I'm in bed, layin' down, naked
+
He's inside of me
+
I love him, kiss his mouth, prayin'
+
He can't see what I see
+
When I close my eyes
+
You replace him
+
Wearin' no disguise
+
You erase him
+
I wanna feel guilty
+
I wanna feel that it's wrong
+
I wanna know peace again
+
Wanna sing a different song
+
I want you to need me
+
I need to want somethin' more
+
He gives what he can
+
But now I don't know what he's givin' for
+
I'm in bed, layin' down, naked
+
You're inside of me
+
I love him, kiss his mouth, sayin'
+
"Oh, yeah, baby, touch, and touch, and touch, and touch me"
+
I wanna feel guilty
+
I wanna feel that it's wrong
+
I wanna know peace again
+
Wanna sing a different song
+
I want you to need me (Need me)
+
I need to want somethin' more (Somethin' more)
+
He gives what he can
+
But now I don't know what he's givin' for
+
Softer, harder, in-between
+
You know just how to get to me
+
He is stable, you are deep
+
I know just how to get what I need
+
I wanna feel guilty
+
I wanna feel that it's wrong
+
I wanna know peace again
+
Wanna be singin' a different song
+
It's only a question
+
If somebody brings it up
+
So I'm pushin' it down and prayin'
+
He won't see it when I come
+
I'm pushin' it down and prayin'
+

Pushing It Down And Praying

Lizzy McAlpine is older and wiser, as she tackles the complexities of a relationship held together by physical intimacy while emotionally yearning for someone else on "Pushing It Down and Praying," the lead single off the deluxe edition of her latest studio album, Older (2024). The deluxe, Older (and Wiser), was released Oct. 4, 2024 on streaming platforms.

Clarity can be an elusive end when wracked with guilt over your thoughts and feelings. Sometimes we must push down our feelings to save face - and we pray. In the song, "Pushing It Down and Praying," McAlpine describes a physical relationship she is in with one person while mentally and emotionally pining for someone else ("When I close my eyes / You replace him / Wearin' no disguise / You erase him"). She beautifully captures this duality of guilt and confusion, as she struggles with her inner desires and what this emotional betrayal could mean for her relationship.

The song takes you on an emotional rollercoaster, showcasing McAlpine's signature blend of vulnerability and indie-pop sound. It's not until about halfway through the track that the electric beat drops during the second verse and into the chorus, capturing the conflict between the comfort of stability and the pull toward deeper emotional fulfillment ("I wanna feel guilty / I wanna feel that it's wrong / I wanna know peace again / Wanna sing a different song"). She yearns for a moment of clarity, while the song's bridge envelops you into a heightened sense of reality - a tug-of-war - singing, "Softer, harder, in-between / You know just how to get to me / He is stable, you are deep / I know just how to get what I need."
