about

In life we will sometimes meet people in different forms, if we have not finished learning a lesson.
Self-produced, bedroom DIY angst for your earholes.

lyrics

You called me out,
I've killed for less but I was too broken to say,
that you were right
the first time and I

Only had,
So much to give
and you would take what I let you,
but only what I let you.

Had to meet you twice,
'cause apparently I don't like
learning the first time around.

You looked so pleased,
with your disguise as though all of your tar wouldn't just,
come seeping out
but you were right, the first time and I

Only had so much to give and you would take what I let you,
Yeah you, already took what I had to give,
so there was nothing left.

Will I, ever get her back
or is she gone for good?
Wasted
on the likes of you,
some, creepy dude who will,
reach in. into the depths,
and carve out a hole in the shape of himself.
You took what I let you,
but they say, that I
let you

You called me out,
just as everyone had forgotten
that I, had fallen down.

You called me out

about

Gilan London, UK

Somewhere between the pit of despair and the gentle calm, there is a tightrope dance happening. It forces me to walk this line everyday.

I intend to wring it by its neck and force it into song.

Join me on this journey. ... more
