Interesting words, great stuff. Fancy giving one of my new Xmas songs a listen?

This here is a cue I wrote for a feature length indie film called Reset. It's a hybrid electronic piece with influences from Jeff Beal's original score for House of Cards. This cue plays off themes that appear in other cues throughout the movie. This was sort of the climax of the movie, so I tried to make it a bit more energetic than the rest of the music in the film. I'll try and post more of my other music from this film ASAP!

Esotericism

i thought i was alone
too lost to find a home
in someone else
with someone else

you've opened up my soul
set fire to my bones
and i can tell
you know me well

you got me head over heels 
and i love how it feels
you're the one i wanna stay with
you're the one i wanna grey with
and i'm safe by your side
when you kiss me goodnight
you're the one i wanna lay with
you're the one i wanna grey with

you're the one i wanna lay with
you're the one i wanna grey with

let's stay in bed all day
with you it's not a waste
i'll breathe you in
i'll breathe you in

with stars inside my eyes
i'll sing for you tonight
and every night
for the rest of my life

you got me head over heels
and i love how it feels
you're the one i wanna stay with
you're the one i wanna grey with
and i'm safe by your side
when you kiss me goodnight
you're the one i wanna lay with 
you're the one i wanna grey with

let's grow old together
we could talk about the time
that we told each other
we'd end up here side by side

you got me head over heels
and i love how it feels
you're the one i wanna stay with
you're the one i wanna grey with
you got me head over heels
and i love how it feels
you're the one i wanna stay with
you're the one i wanna grey with
and i'm safe by your side
when you kiss me goodnight
you're the one i wanna lay with
you're the one i wanna grey with

Grey

This one goes out to everyone still hung up on 18 yr old summertime flings. 

late at night
sometimes i can't seem to fight
the thought of you out my mind
years ago summertime

cigarettes
the taste of your whiskey lips
still haunting my every kiss
do you remember it?

i just wanna be 
in your memory
wild and carefree
like we used to be

and if i go home
will you come around like when we were young
tell me that you always kinda missed me
wishin' we could still be 18

and if i come back
take me to the places that we talked at
oh, i can't forget the way you kissed me
wishin' we could still be 18

even now
i wonder when you're in town
yeah, maybe we could go down
take a walk along the silent sound

keep you close
i don't want to let you go
your memory's in my soul
thought i should let you know

i just wanna be
like we used to be

and if i go home
will you come around like when we were young
tell me that you always kinda missed me
wishin' we could still be 18

and if i come back
take me to the places that we talked at
oh, i can't forget the way you kissed me
wishin' we could still be 18

i know you were just a glimmer
i don't even know if you ever
think about the days we spent together

i know you were just a glimmer
i don't even know if you ever
think about the days we spent together

and if i go home
will you come around like when we were young
tell me that you always kinda missed me
wishin' we could still be 18

and if i come back
take me to the places that we talked at
oh, i can't forget the way you kissed me
wishin' we could still be 18


every time i smoke american spirits
i’m back on the east coast
the place i miss the most
the night we drove home
from dinner at your folks house
i felt so close to you

i was walking forwards 
while you were walking backwards
and i wish we knew it back then

i don’t want to be your past
what if
your name is the word i’ll say last
and if you don’t want me the same way
i guess i’ll just wait anyways

every time i drink a blueberry lemonade
i’m back at the lake
you’re kissing my face
the shortcut you showed me
i take when i’m lonely
and always i’ll think of you

i was walking forwards 
while you were walking backwards 
and i wish we walked hand in hand

i don’t want to be your past
what if
your name is the word i’ll say last
and if you don’t want me the same way
i guess i’ll just wait anyways
