My new album Love + Fear is out now - marina.lnk.to/loveandfear
Subscribe to the MARINA YouTube Channel - Marina.lnk.to/subscribe
“The Family Jewels is a body of work largely inspired by the seduction of commercialism, modern social values, family and female sexuality. Each song was intricately produced and written by myself, and my only hope is for it to be enjoyed and consumed as a story and theory that encourages people to question themselves.” - MARINA

LYRICS
[Verse 1]
Sunday, wake up, give me a cigarette
Last night's love affair is looking vulnerable in my bed
Silk sheet, blue dawn
Colgate, tongue warm
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Won't you quit your crying?
I can't sleep
One minute I'm a little sweetheart
And next minute you are an absolute creep
[Chorus 1]
We've got obsessions
I want to wipe out all the sad ideas that come to me when I am holding you
We've got obsessions
All you ever think about are sick ideas involving me, involving you
[Verse 2]
Supermarket, oh, what packet of crackers to pick?
They're all the same, one brand, one name-
But really they're not
Look, look, just choose something quick
People are staring, time to go quick and
Skin is on fire, just choose something, something, something!
Pressure overwhelming
Next minute, I am turning out of the door
Facing one week without food
A day, a day, when things, things are pretty bad
But don't let it make you feel sad
The crackers were probably bad luck anyway
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Can't let your cold heart be free
When you act like you've got an OCD
[Chorus 2]
We've got obsessions
I want to erase every nasty thought that bugs me every day of every week
We've got obsessions
You never told me what it was that made you strong and what it was that made you weak
[Bridge]
Ah, a-ha
Ah, a-ha
Ah, a-ha, a-ha
Ah, a-ha, ah
Ah, a-ha...
[Chorus 2]
We've got obsessions
I want to erase every nasty thought that bugs me every day of every week
We've got obsessions
You never told me what it was that made you strong and what it was that made you weak
[Outro]
(We've got obsessions)
That made you weak, made you weak
Made you weak
(We've got obsessions)
Made you weak, made you weak, made you...
Sunday, wake up, give me a cigarette
Last night's love affair is looking vulnerable again

This song is not only just musically flawless, but also paints a very accurate picture of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. I now have an even deeper respect and love for Marina.

Every single time I watch this video, it breaks my heart. When she's putting the individual pieces together, I feel like it's the circumstances of life that make up little parts of us - how every screw is put in, the bars laid out the exact way... It's reminiscent of the way I see some of the crap that happens in people's lives. Blessings in disguise. The way the diamond comes together at the end, discernible only in the last 15 or so seconds, not perfectly aligned but still beautiful... I guess that's life. That's the big picture.

Coming back to this song as an adult who has better control over their OCD now, this feels like a warm blanket. Marina's music helped me so much as a struggling teen with raging mental health issues. She always inspired me to remain sensitive and to not be afraid of being emotional.

I think the song is about more than 1 thing, most of her songs are. But for me personally, it's like she wants to explain her anxiety. She is stuck inside a cycle of fear and she can't get out, in the night overthinking works even better than over day what sucks, on some days you are fine and everything is okay, on other days it's difficult just to breathe, on Sundays anxiety hits because you're anxious about Monday, anxiety makes you act/feel like you have an OCD often, you feel like people are staring and like your cheeks are red all the time and you may be not able to buy something in a supermarket, you always try to get out of a situation that you're anxious about.

I can't believe i spent so many years of my life without hearing this album. It's one of my favorite albums ever and a criminally underrated pop masterpiece.
