Actress and musician Lola Kirke shared the video for her song “Not Used” today viaLenny Letter; the clip was directed by and stars her sister, actress Jemima Kirke. On “Not Used,” Lola sings about learning to live with a lover’s absence, and Jemima says, “Those transitional, soul-level-change moments we experience are never dramatic. Epiphanies don’t really happen. They’re a myth. Real transformation is boring and uncomfortable, like working out on your birthday when you have no plans. Change slips in unnoticed while you’re busy trudging through something pretty unremarkable.”
