Forrest Phone Calls

Can't see the haters

Sara lookin foxy

Me: *feels*

Let me know if this is your picture so i can give proper credit.

From the Tegan and Sara song Knife going in off the album The Con.

My opinion on why that line specifically is so devastating may differ from others. I think that it is so absolutely soul crushing because for the most part, Sara’s lyrics and lines are beautiful but intentionally vague and aloof. You get a sense that she has been crushed, but in that moment where she was so specific to mention Emy by name, not only in passing but in the form of a question, you also become crushed under the same weight Sara so clearly held. Sara was so lost for words on her fear and sadness, that she couldnt even stand to mask it with misleading lyrics of loss. Instead she asks Emy a question, we as listeners just happen to be able to hear it.
