Have you ever known someone who can reliably coax you out of your hiding place? Who's presence effortlessly compels you to lower your guard? Who pierces straight through your insecurities to reveal your best self? 

“Crystal” is an uncharacteristically optimistic song about just that sort of person. 

CRYSTAL
©2022 Brian Hazard (ASCAP0

What’s precious inside me
Won’t let itself be known
To come out of hiding
Is to end up alone

No I won’t break down in front of you
Oh of all the stupid things to do

I won’t let you in
I won’t cross the line
I’ve been burnt too many times
I want to believe
Want to be alive
Look into my crystal eyes
Where a shout of joy
Is waiting to be born
Is waiting to be born

You slice me right open
A dazzling crystal blade
So thin I can’t feel it
So fast I can’t evade

And you cut right to the heart of it
And it only hurt a little bit

Crystal

I Cannot Rain

Listen/download ➤ https://ffm.colortheory.com/punchingshadows

Earlier this year, German film director and longtime Color Theory fan Louis Bennies asked me to produce an end credits song for his upcoming film Signals.

The film tells the story of a high school boy with autism who falls in love with a girl who sees him for who he is, despite others labeling him as “weird.” The song began to take shape after a Zoom conversation where we discussed the broader themes of love, identity, and standing up for yourself.

It wasn’t until I watched a rough cut of the film that the direction for the track truly came into focus. A pivotal gym scene, where the protagonist confides in two older mentors while hitting a punching bag, became the emotional core of the track.

PUNCHING SHADOWS
©2024 Brian Hazard (ASCAP)

Lace up my gloves
Check my stance
Alone with my shadow
Ready to dance
It’s about time
I stood up for myself
Roll with the punches
Come out of my shell

I’ll protect my face
Keep the weight on my toes
Try to find my reach
When I’m punching shadows
No it’s not your fault
That you don’t understand me
When I’m punching shadows
(gotta fight my fears)
Punching shadows
(through the sweat and tears)

Falling in love
With every strike
A heart that knew only darkness
Suddenly light
Growing into
A new identity
A man with a future
Set finally free

If they only knew
How I see the world
And my place within it
Let me find the words
I just need a minute
You know it’s not my fault
That I don’t understand you
So I’m punching shadows

“The Curve” is my favorite of the four tracks I sang on for the upcoming Second Complex album. It harkens back to the classic synthie-pop sounds of the 2000s from bands like Camouflage, De/Vision, and Wolfsheim.

Light's Not Far Away

@CreuxLies "Made"
“The Mafia allure (especially through cinema) on my childhood crept its way into my headspace during the production of this one. This song reflected and felt like its own scene outside of “The Hearth,” so we held on to it for later. Nonetheless, Made lives in the nexus point of the prevailing political landscape and my psychic scream. It identifies itself through the term for a certain kind of new criminal culture I would like to see. Something like mythology akin to Yorkshire’s hood – this song is a gesture to the rabble-rousers who are ready to party harder than the new Hobbian leviathans breaching here in the west. No more tilting at windmills, let’s get down.”
