about
This is a song I scored when I was sixteen years old.
Later, re-wrote a lot of the lyrics, refined the score and recorded it
This was initially to be part of an album I've been working on for a very long time, but I want it to stand alone from my other content.
Though the piece still means so much to me, I found myself unable to break from a certain perspective of my youth, a place that I can still feel but am very distant from.
I started writing this piece after I realized I was stagnating in an old relationship. To move on I had to break myself apart from this person. I had to cut my energy from more people and find my own power in days and nights listening to my body, until I heard the call telling me where to go next.
lyrics
to feel again
when the strange night
sees us growing
shading an image foreign to you
this eye in my mind has opened from it's hiding
it may hurt right now
there's no choice but to hurt somehow
through the lonely sound
please understand
the faith was just a mask
that pulls me back in cold blue
and i cannot ever do that to you
put on this face at the start of the day
two spirit revealed yet you've nothing to say
oh, what a vision i see now in you
but do you see me yet as each side of the two
to be given this body
yet i feel like a mother inside
growing tired of the wanting grasp
if it ends where do i
find the words of a bloodless locality
half evaded, these eyes shifting right
take the door to find these arms
reaching out
but none of them hold me as tight
what now
