about

1st single from "Dissolving Light", coming out on June 26th 2020

lyrics

Shaking in the corner you're wondering
Why is this still happening?
How is this still happening?

Cry yourself to sleep and feel stupid
Thought you'd moved through this
You'll never move through this

Stories in your brain, they remain
Sometimes they hide away
You think you're okay but it's a permanent stain

What's the point of wings so delicate
To crush at the slightest threat to their own concept?

Plucking out the petals of progress
Bloom just to wilt again
Grow just to shrink back in

Stories in your brain, they remain
Sometimes they hide away
You think you're okay but it's a permanent stain

Cloudy lens obscuring the positive
I know it's a passing phase
Its visits they saturate

Stories in your brain, they remain
Sometimes they hide away
You think you're okay but it's a permanent stain

A permanent stain
