Electro-pop duo, Milk & Bone have returned with their new single, “Borders” today. The refreshing track arrives just in time for summer and can be heard now below.
Written at the peak of the pandemic, “Borders” explores the toll on a longing woman’s imagination when she cannot travel to connect with the object of her desire. In addition to expressing the difficulty of long-distance relationships, the lyrics provide a universal perspective on tumultuous love stories and the feeling of melancholy. Borders is what happens when an obsessive person thinks about the what-ifs of their teenage romance, explains Milk & Bone. It’s a reminiscence of simpler times, when emotions always spoke louder than words, and when everything was either black or white, complete and eternal.
