In 2006, they released their second album, Liars.
Since then, they have undergone a line up change. Alex left the band for vocals in his side project and as of October, James left to return to university. No hard feelings are felt.
What It Feels Like
Lola Ray Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
slow motions silhouettes and
Ain't no one say what's wrong with me
Hike up my miniskirt
Bust through my tiny shirt
Sayin' I wear your sex up on my sleeves
HEY, HEY
You think that I'm perfect when I
Not just pretend
Cause it's easier now
Shocked to the point of blushing
Put on a little fever
And I get my way
Cause it's easier now
You ask me what it feels like
I say that I don't know better
Touch me where you want to
I'm a virgin with a problem
And I ask you what it feels like
You say that you have had better
Tell me what you want to
I'm a virgin with a problem
And I want to be chopped up into tiny little pieces
I want to be trampled by a dirty old man
I can't believe no one wants me
I'll tell you what it feels like
The loneliest song minus all the words
HEY HEY
You ask me what it feels like
I say that I don't know better
Touch me where you want to
I'm a virgin with a problem
And I ask you what it feels like
You say that you have had better
Tell me what you want to
I'm a virgin with a problem
Give yourself to me
You're better on your knees
Throw you life away
I'll make it so much easier
To be free
You ask me what it feels like
I say that I don't know better
Touch me where you want to
I'm a virgin with a problem
And I ask you what it feels like
You say that you have had better
Tell me what you want to
I'm a virgin with a problem
Oh the games you play
Oh the things you say
Keep talking to me love
I could care less either way
Oh the games you play
Oh the things you say
Just trying to let go
Everything I should have known now
The lyrics of Lola Ray's "What It Feels Like" are haunting and perplexing. The song is a heart-breaking plea for acceptance and fulfillment. The singer presents herself as sexually promiscuous and desperately lonely. She expresses her need for both attention and affection in order to feel truly alive. The song plays with the dichotomy of being both a virgin and a sexually open person. The singer's constant refrain of "I'm a virgin with a problem" suggests that she possesses a tension between her outward persona and her internal desires.
The verses of the song, with their references to cigarettes, miniskirts, and sex, present a traditional image of rebellion and experimentation. However, the chorus adds a deeper dimension to this image, revealing the singer's deep emotional pain. She asks, "You ask me what it feels like, I say that I don't know better, Touch me where you want to, I'm a virgin with a problem." These lines suggest that the singer is searching for someone to make her feel alive, but she is incapable of expressing her true desires. Her words indicate a sense of shame and confusion about her own identity.
Overall, Lola Ray's "What It Feels Like" is a powerful and poignant song that explores the complexities of human emotion. The lyrics suggest that we all have secrets and desires that we keep hidden, and that true fulfillment can only be found when we are willing to reveal our true selves to others.

I've got my cigarettes and my slow motions silhouettes and
I have my cigarettes and I am moving slowly, without any rush
Ain't no one say what's wrong with me
No one is pointing out my flaws
Hike up my miniskirt
I am raising my miniskirt intentionally
Bust through my tiny shirt
I am tearing through my small shirt
Sayin' I wear your sex up on my sleeves
I am showing off a lot of physical sexual behavior
HEY, HEY
A casual exclamation
You think that I'm perfect when I
You believe I am the best
Scream a little softer
I am being less loud and more subtle
Not just pretend
I am not simply pretending
Cause it's easier now
It is now becoming easier
Shocked to the point of blushing
I am appalled and embarrassed
Put on a little fever
I am acting out of passion
And I get my way
I achieve what I want
You ask me what it feels like
You want to know what it's like
I say that I don't know better
I respond by saying I am unsure
Touch me where you want to
You can touch me anywhere
I'm a virgin with a problem
I am inexperienced and have issues
And I ask you what it feels like
I want to know what you feel like
You say that you have had better
You inform me that you've experienced better
Tell me what you want to
You can share what you want
Give yourself to me
You should give your body to me
You're better on your knees
You function better on your knees
Throw you life away
Discard your current life
I'll make it so much easier
I will assist you in making it easier
To be free
To be liberated
Oh the games you play
The games you indulge in
Oh the things you say
The things you express
Keep talking to me love
Continue talking to me, my dear
I could care less either way
I am indifferent to the outcome
Just trying to let go
Trying to release my thoughts and feelings
Everything I should have known now
I am now aware of what I should have known all along

Oh the games you play
Oh the things you say
Just trying to let go
Everything I should have known now
