Discover the story of the song > Prime – Allie X

The lyrics are about someone who is experiencing an optical illusion and feeling confused about their sexuality. They mention a liberal perception and making connections too early. They feel like they are in the prime of their existence, but deep down they know the truth is that their romantic partner is the one who matters the most to them. They talk about running blindly without any resistance. The chorus talks about trying to be a beautiful monstrosity and being happy even if they are just getting by. They mention that being healthy isn't fun or amusing and that they should forget about what they need and focus on what they want. The rest of the lyrics repeat these ideas and mention the protagonist wanting to feel alive before their time is up. They end by saying that their romantic partner is their medicine and their history, and that they should forget about what they need and focus on what they want.
