An ode to being young and carefree. Musically, it gave me
an opportunity to let go of the structure and sound of the
album. I was able to insert a breath of fresh air amidst the
heavy synths and drums and freak out a bit. People view
my music as 'composed' and 'layered' and this is just
beautiful chaos. I'd like people to get to know this side of
me more, and hope to give them a little taste of my future
self.
lyrics
WEIGHTLESS
The waves they crash, they roll onto us
But we’ll never remember how cold the water was
The wind it cuts, cuts into us
But it goes so slow it didn’t bother us
I was weightless
weightlessly waiting for you
and I still do
I was weightless
weightlessly waiting for you
The sand it crawls
it tries to get lost
We wil carry it like promises
I swear we could fly
drunken feathers we balance
On the verge of living regretless
And the leaves they fall
but no never us
I’m holding on to branches long lost
I was weightless
weightlessly waiting for you
and I still do
I was weightless
weightlessly waiting for you
