I like their song "I'm Not a Robot", I found it because someone here mentioned it.

I have listened to her music for years. But now listening to “Oh no!” I saw female aspie characteristics. “Don’t do love, don’t do friend. I’m only after success” “I know exactly what I want and who I want to be. I know exactly why I walk and talk like a machine” “TV taught me how to feel”
Or from Valley of the dolls “got a hole inside of me, living with identities that do not belong to me”
Or like everything from Girls
It’s probably why I got so attached to her music in my teenage years where I still was very confused about life and myself.

This is the most ASD relatable song I have ever heard. A beautiful song also.
Quote:
Don't wanna talk anymore I'm obsessed with silence I go home and I lock my door I can hear the sirens
I see buildings and bars from the window And I listen to the wind blow I see people and cars covered in gold And I'm happy to be on my own
Hard like a rock, cold like stone White like a diamond, black like coal Cut like a jewel, yeah I repair Myself when you're not there
Solitaire Something you consider rare I don't wanna be compared With that cheap shimmer and glitter Solitaire
I'm in love with the ice-blue, gray skies of England I'll admit, all I wanna do is get drunk and silent Watch my life unfold all around me Like a beautiful garden I see flowers so tall, they surround me Oh my heart, it became so hardened
Hard like a rock, cold like stone White like a diamond, black like coal Cut like a jewel, yeah I repair Myself when you're not there
Solitaire Something you consider rare I don't wanna be compared With that cheap shimmer and glitter Solitaire
And all the other jewels around me They astounded me at first I covered up my heart in boundaries And all the fakes, they called me cursed But I'm not cursed, I'm not cursed I was just covered in dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt
Solitaire Something you consider rare I don't wanna be compared With that cheap shimmer and glitter Solitaire
