Mitski song interpretations!!

Liquid Smooth

Lyrics:

I'm beautiful, I know 'cause it's the season
But what am I to do with all this beauty?
Biology, I am an organism
I'm chemical, that's all, that is all

I'm liquid smooth, come touch me too
And feel my skin is plump and full of life
I'm in my prime
I'm liquid smooth, come touch me too
I'm at my highest peak, I'm ripe
About to fall, capture me

Or at least take my picture
崩れてゆく前に
I'm pulsing
My blood is red and unafraid of living
Beginning to end

I'm liquid smooth, come touch me too
And feel my skin is plump and full of life
I'm in my prime
I'm liquid smooth, come touch me too
I'm at my highest peak, I'm ripe
about to fall

How I feel this river rushing through my veins
With nowhere else to go, it circles 'round

I'm liquid smooth, come touch me too

And feel my skin is plump and full of life

I'm in my prime
I'm liquid smooth, come touch me too
I'm at my highest peak, I'm ripe
About to fall, capture me

This is one of the songs that took me most time to understand, but to my mind, it is actually one of the most meaningful songs of this album. 

This songs represents how being a woman and life itself go hand in hand as we see how she represents herself as something that is alive, an organism, like a fruit since she mentions words such as "ripe" or "plump", symbolizing she can rot, as how women are less valued when they reach a certain age. 

The singer is someone who realizes this and tries to tell someone who is presumably their partner to like her more just by sexualizing herself because that's the way she feels she is being loved by someone, even though she's objectifying herself and throwing away her self-respect.
