Seraphic 04:27
As he eyed their envy His heart would skip a beat Giddy rush, intently Their sweat would taste so sweet All arise I've taken what I wanted I am the truth You'll need no proof It's time for you to Settle down Show me what I've taken Show me how much you cared Show me lives in ruin She me you weren't prepared One by one You asked and I'm the answer It stays this way 'Til break of day When finally you'll Settle down Breathe in deep Hold fast to those who matter I'm filled with light A bird in flight With broken wings you'll Settle down

Movements 03:33
Follow the way, your body flexed, as you moved your arms to the sound Shoulders reclined, as your fingers stretched, with your feet barely touching the ground A shift of weight, but I can't keep up, I'm out of time again Carry me on, holding to your gaze, as I hope this night doesn't end I'm taken, caught up in your arc You've spoken, movements blur in the dark Your presence, noiseless at the noise's heart Movements blur in the dark Follow the way, I'm out of joint, at an angle I cannot read Gather me up, so that I can move, with an ease that you've got for free There's not a song that you don't know, we're out of time again Carry me on, as you move to me, and I hope this night doesn't end I'm taken, caught up in your arc You've spoken, movements blur in the dark Your presence, noiseless at the noise's heart Movements blur in the dark Another night, and I know we'll be here again

Swell and break, sink and spray Forceful summers As the heat gives way to rain A taste that we know Our iron tongue and throat Breath of life and feet of clay As they take, as they cleave Slip apart and watch them crumble Sallow face, pallid words Sickly solvent Brutal cuts of bloated dreams They feel that they're due A world whose name we knew Long forgotten, lost at sea As they wrench, as they tear Step from view and watch them crumble We learnt to keep away, Your lashing out Your wounded pride, your formless heart won't wait You'd own us if you could We're more than you can say Steeled souls At play

Stare at the sky as the night takes me out of today Clouds growing Hung up to wet watch the rain seeping down to the sea Collapsing You Away from the downpour, the Storm at night Away form the amber of Electric light Away from my gazing at Waves turning white I'm waiting to head back home Windswept and restful the swell rises out into greys Escaping Sterile the flash the explosion is dull on the wait Will haunt me You Away from the downpour, the Storm at night Away form the amber of Electric light Away from my gazing at Waves turning white I'm waiting to head back home I'd watch the night turn to day But you pull me away So I can head back home

Zmitrowicz 03:51
Opened up a faltering stare Care that falls Full of this he shouldn't call Disquiet Become what's yours Open through See his remorse Fall from you Water's edge as sharp as stones Break his waves Swell and rive against his shore Moonlit hour Become what's yours Open through See his remorse Fall from you As the water rises high Hidden depths and forceful lies Momentarily become The lunatic who's on the run Oceans flex, hills sustain Caught on the edges of the frame There's nowhere else for you to go In soft decline you slip below Become what's yours Open through See his remorse Fall from you

about

Songs old and new, clinging to the edges of many musical projects that have come and gone. The pandemic gave me the time and money to bring them together into this EP (plus another to come). It's a solo EP but the product of many friendships expressed through music. Thank you to all of you!

All of the songs were originally written on acoustic guitar. Often I'd intend for there to be some guitar left after production, but that's rarely happened. As a consequence the production from Olli Daffarn at Blue Dot Studios is all over this. I'm pretty directive with what I want, but Olli has this gift of respecting your wishes while suggesting changes that you didn't know you wanted but make the whole thing a lot better.

But you're never really alone are you?
