See the weight came and stopped me it threw me again
Wake me up to get out on the weekend
Always hoping for a bright end
But I know that cant always be that way
I didn’t want to go out
Said I’d had enough
Been closing off from the ones I love
I wanna go out and mean it
I wanna know how you are
I want be wherever you are
And see the light from the stars
I always want to lean in
To make up on all I missed out on
All that I never noticed
When I was busy looking at you/feeling blue
When I was six and bored in Chicago
I jumped down a flight of stairs
I couldn’t walk all night on Halloween
Under a dark sky and street light glare
Now I wanna get up
It’s been upside down
No more closing off from the ones I love

Get High Feel Alive
03:18
|

Am I aware of what I am today
I don’t have to impress anyone
Guess I was always acting strange
Around the ones I love
Every second, every time I second guess
Everything that ran through my head
I was always trying to be someone else
Then I fell into the light…
I don’t need to get high to feel alive
Everything that you need is already inside
Don’t just be along for the ride co-create your own life
Adventure seems like another time
Listening to “I left my heart”, like we were never apart
Now I am refined, I am changed
But still part of the same whole
That I always was,
Sometimes something stirs within
My tolerance is strong but then I go numb
I’m not as weak as you think
But I was lost enough to speak to you
And so I fall into your light…
(I never wanted to feel this way, bring me back to life with “Truth Decay”. I never wanted to feel this way, I just couldn’t tell you)

Waves
03:20

I can't seem to get a grip on reality
My hand aren't serving me
And I can't turn around
Held up in my mind
I was doing so well for my circumstance
Then it all just fell apart
Work, skate, sing, breathe
Be still, be free
Calm down, I cant speak
I need some more room to breathe
Take the waves as they come
Roll with them one by one
Lay down those comparisons
We won't be here for long
If this journey is mine, how do I change it?
If this journey is mine, should I change it?
There were days that I didn't believe in anything more
Do you still see me the same as before?
When I felt that summer breeze in my hair
I could feel a change in the air
I'm in the yellow flowers now
In every white feather that falls down
I pull on these thoughts and I’m numb all together
You're up in the clouds now, untethered
I wanna be “Up in the Air Forever

Sun Goes Down
02:03
|

I’m on a non-stop flight of the world
And of you I’ve been reflecting
And on all the thoughts I denied
Walking on the other side of the road
Cause don’t want to miss you
Tell me everything that you want
I feel it too
The sun goes down on me, can you feel it?
The sun rolls down on me, can you feel it too?
This all falls down on me, can you feel it?
This all falls down on me, can you feel it too?
What a sore sight for sunrise in your eyes
That’s a mood i’ve been reflecting
As we “Breathe Out Dreams”
We seem to align just right
It’s like I’m taking apart every piece of me
I’m always on the run from all the things I seem to miss out on.

oh well
that didn't work, obviously that didn't work!
that's probably a bad idea...
like they're just waiting to pass though to the next stage
but I dunno, you're cool
HELLO! so if you've listened to the album so far; thank you so much, really appreciate that. Maybe you'll have noticed that the songs sounded kinda sunny until now, thats the concept of this album.... uh it's like going from day time to night time / the cycle of the world. I guess thats what inspired the album title which is "Around The World & Back To You" the thought of we can all travel around the world to see all these different things and go different places but you always come back to yourself and that you cant run away from your thoughts and feelings forever. So, that's what this album is about, I hope you've enjoyed it so far. Thanks yo everyone who provided a voice note (sorry about that) these next songs are kinda sat but whatever, That Was Day Time, This is Night Time. yeah!

Could You Promise
02:39

I could lie awake and count all the things
That I’m grateful for
Drawling lines across the stars
Connecting up the dark
Yeah I’ve been going through it
But after all this time
I think i’m starting to to believe…
That it doesn't have to hurt anymore
And we can still find something sweet
Theres so much more to live for in between
(A new sun is rising, I don’t need reminding of you)

Rush

Pull me out my normal life
Navy walls and ceilings high
They’re dancing and I’m watching
Do you think I’ve changed?
We used to be so familiar
Now I’m sitting in the peripheral
They’re laughing
I’m not talking
Can’t you see that I’m not the same?
And I feel so trapped inside
This anxiety is taking over me
But I, will take it one step at a time
The world can wait for me to realign
So I can make the most of this life time
And what else can I say?
I promise il be back to myself again, someday
I’m watching you play live from a screen
I wish I could be there, too overwhelming
I used to be alright, now I need quiet
So I bury my heart like a seed
Waiting for the summer I’ll be blooming
I don’t wanna live like this forever
I’ve been pushing myself so I'm gonna slow down
I’m letting these feelings all breathe out

Fear
02:57
|

My head is spinning I don’t feel right
All this is feeling so hard inside
I’ve been trying to change the scene
But I don’t want to be here
It’s like I’m walking the fault line in my mind
Ready to erupt at anytime
I shut my mouth and close my eyes
Like the tide i’m ready to rise
It’s so embarrassing
I cant stay without shaking
My body reacting to a past I’ve been trying to heal from
I know you don’t think any less of me
But it’s tearing me apart cant you see?
I wanna know if I can let it all go
I wanna cleanse and heal and grow
So I step into the place I was fearing
Diving head-first through the hurt to find healing
I’ve been feeling outside of my body
Could I learn to love this?

Doesn't Have To Hurt

And we can still find something sweet

Younger Life
02:40
|

I will curl up and I will try to keep warm
In this body wasting away
It's a sickness rising up like a slow decay,
Like a slow fade, watched you wither away
All those mornings you laid in bed
Purple walls and silhouettes
All those records you collected
Before we laid you down to...
We've seen the grief, we've come so far
From those 12 year olds lost in the dark
Sometimes I just stand outside
and watch the world float on by
The endless dark of the night
Infinity before my eyes
I shut myself away in the summer heat
Singing the world was always at my feet
Been doing better since 16
In fact, I’m everything that i dreamed to be
Unwind me to my younger life
Revive my innocence under star light
When I didn't know what was waiting
When I didn't know what I was feeling

Fade Away
02:22
|
|||
I’m so sorry for how I was
Those summers I felt so lost
Looking back
I get why I was that way
I was 20 something full of sadness
The wait to grow up felt so endless
Young and confident
All I wanted was to…
Get out my head for the day
All the things I’ve grown to hate
Let them fade away
Can you imagine just what could happen
If I could float into you?
Can you you imagine just what could happen
You’ve got me spinning round and falling for you
I’m saying how I feel
You’re the only one listening
You said “isn’t it sad how we will fade away?”
I’ve been thinking about what you said
How you wish you could go anywhere
We’d go if we weren’t so scared to
Get out our heads for the day
All things we’ve grown to hate
Let them fade away

Seasons
01:24
|

I’ve been living
But I’ve not been trying
Yeah I’ve been floating around
On autopilot
Oh come on, come on
You should really try it
Nah, I’m alright
Oh come on, come on
You know you’re gonna get it
I wont
Seasons
Moving round my head again
Pull my head out to make amends
Maybe when the full moon rises
I’ll be alright
