    I loved working on this EP! Organic, intimate, and deliberate in its freeform - anchored by the Steinway we recorded on. You can hear the sound of the wood through the piano, like breathing.

just a dream 03:38
You sit in your kitchen chair, light makes waves in your hair, this is what I see, when you visit me in my dreams. I know it’s been a lifetime, I don’t mean to make you cry, I need to find my way back, to see you one more time. Chorus: It was always always just a dream, but I swear, I swear it felt so real. My coat still hangs at the door, this house is not mine anymore, this is what I see in faded old memories. I know it’s been a lifetime, I don’t mean to make you cry, I need to find my way back, to see you one more time. Chorus ...real that I reached out, I knew without a doubt, that you were there with me, no more longing as we sleep. Chorus...

how we love Oh how we love, oh how we fight, in shipwrecks and waves, all through the night. With nothing left, there’s nothing to lose, no shelter in sight, we’re swept by the tide. Chorus: There’s a sadness, it sits on the corner of your smile, I see the light shift when I tell you that I will love, I will love you tomorrow. Oh how we love, oh how we hurt, there’s no sleep tonight in this room full of words. We know it’s lost, I hear you sigh, I’m all emptied out, I can’t cry. Chorus...I don’t know where we went wrong, maybe we chose proud over strong, we can be brave, and say goodbye, you say you’re ok, but you can’t hide. Chorus...

Here we are in lockdown, charged and confined, if you try to prove my innocence, I won’t pay you back in kind. If you choose to walk away, I’ll take it as a sign, that one of us was stronger so that we can both survive, so let’s settle for distraction, just to settle our minds, and at the end of every day, I’ll silently resign. This love that surrounds us is sad thin and reckless, as we battle our demons and run out of reasons, we bargain for time without conviction, just long enough to find a sad thin and reckless addiction. When I wake the nightmare lingers, there’s pressure on my teeth, I wait until it registers that the pain is buried deep between the lungs that couldn’t hold this heart that wouldn’t weep. Chorus...

run 04:02
run It’s cold and bright, I’m breathing against it with all my might, your words in my hands my feet on the ground, singing out loud, the sun in my eye. My heart will stretch, push through my chest, Chorus: I will run like I’ve never run before, I will run til I’m standing at your door, I will run like I’ve never run before, I will run til I reach you. I want to feel time turn to wind, feel it race against my skin, running free under the stars, with a lion in my heart. My heart will stretch, push through my chest, won’t let me rest. Chorus...
