On She’s Not Good For Me, singer-songwriter Luna Keller opens up about her personal battle with depression in a powerfully candid way.

The eighth chapter of her upcoming concept album Ocean Inside Of Me, the song strips away any pretence with its stark, confessional lyrics and understated folk production.

Over delicately plucked acoustic guitar lines, Luna Keller’s smoky vocals have an almost whisper-like intimacy as she personifies her inner darkness as a toxic relationship.

“She’s been swallowing my eyes; now all I see is darkness,” she laments with raw honesty.

There’s no romanticising or sugarcoating as Luna Keller confronts her demons head-on.

The subdued musical arrangements keep the focus squarely on Keller’s poignant words and vocals.

Tastefully incorporated synths, mandolin, and atmospheric percussion create a melancholy but comforting sonic cocoon.

It’s spare but textured, mirroring the complexity of overcoming mental health struggles.

A particularly poignant moment comes from the guest guitar work of indie artist Jory Avner, whose music helped provide solace to Luna Keller during her recovery.

His warm, empathetic playing feels like a reassuring presence amidst the heaviness.

While She’s Not Good For Me dwells in sombre territory, it ultimately imparts a quietly resilient spirit.

Luna Keller’s vulnerable sharing destigmatizes the non-linear process of healing.

Her unguarded openness communicates that our darker impulses don’t define us, but candidly recognising them is vital.

It’s a stripped-back, heartrending song buoyed by its authenticity and cathartic wisdom.

For anyone grappling with personal demons, Luna Keller’s latest is a reminder that we all have shadows to confront, but embracing them is the first step towards self-acceptance.

Luna Keller She’s Not Good For Me Lyrics

Just one more dance
Give me a chance
Don’t you dare take me there again
There’s fire in the sand
Shaking devils hand
Don’t you dare take me there again

Oh I know
I have loved her before
But she’s not good for me
She’s not good for me
She’ll never be

Drifting in the ocean
She had my devotion
Don’t you dare take me there again

Oh I know
I have loved her before
But she’s not good for me
She’s not good for me
She’ll never be
She’ll never be

She’s been swallowing my eyes now all I see is darkness
I can hear her cry from the bottom of the abyss
She’s not good for me
She’s not good for me
She’ll never be
