Best For You ft. Bethony Nichole

Monster

There is just a touch of fear 
In every fragile moment life appears
But I’m safe with you velvet cargo
And I’ll take you out again this time tomorrow

And I’ll hold you hold you through the night 
While my hands are still untied
And we’ll sleep some other time
While we’re dreaming here tonight

A stowaway narrowly escaped the gallows
The shadow of her kiss hangs from the parlor 
Her gaze stays sticking onto velvet cargo
No diplomat could lift this heart’s embargo

And I’ll hold you hold you through the night 
And I’d make the sacrifice 
And we’ll sleep some other time
When we’re dreaming here tomorrow
Delivering your finery 
While shivering excitedly 
Adorn you with the finer things
We finally live our fantasy

My eyes are full of light upon arrival 
Heartbeat so fast it threatens my survival 
Now in my arms I hold you velvet cargo 
So soft and pure and eager to be followed 

And I’ll love you through the night
Hands reaching toward your candlelight 
And we’ll sleep some other time
When we’re dreaming here tomorrow

Woodcrest is the third single from my upcoming record 'Two Hours' coming July 7th. This one is really special to me. It feels like it has its own life after everyone who’s put their magic on it over this last year. It’s a conversation between my inner child and I. It’s about honoring that moment when you come back together, and making new promises that you intend to keep. There is an obvious theme on this new album and I have been hesitant to share too much, but I hope this one connects with you in those lower levels of your consciousness that we sometimes forget to check in on. 

With gratitude and love I say thank you for listening, reading, supporting, following - everything.

Lyrics:
You found,
You found me,
You knew,
You told me so,

Hold me close,
Let’s get outta here,
Save the day,
Forget everything,
Hold me close, 
Let’s get outta here,
Save the day,
Forget everything,

I hid,
Hid from you,
I left,
I left you,
I left you,
I left you,
I left you,

Hold me close,
Let’s get outta here,
Save the day,
Forget everything,
Hold me close, 
Let’s get outta here,
Save the day,
Forget everything

Verse 1
Julian
No need to pretend
You’re painting portraits of your friends again
Water spreads in
Just the right direction
Color correction
Perfect complexion

Chorus
Don’t stop
On my account
I’m having fun just hanging out
Watching
The light rake over them
You’re starting over again

Verse 2
You shade the corners
For depth perception
We don’t know the difference but we
Like the direction
The sound of the pencil
Overtop the paper
Like a hushing ocean
Now my eyes are closin’

Chorus
Don’t stop
On my account
I’m having fun just hanging out
Watching
The light rake over them
You’re starting over again

Bridge
I take your invitation
I sit so still and patient
The minutes turn to hours
You work your super powers

Verse 3
Julian
No need to pretend
You’re painting portraits of your friends again
Water spreads in
Just the right direction
Color correction
Perfect complexion

Chorus
Don’t stop
On my account
I’m having fun just hanging out
Watching
The light rake over them
You’re starting over again

You’re starting over again

Julian's Painting

Between the Bars by Elliott Smith

Drink up baby, stay up all night
With the things you could do
You won't but you might
The potential you'll be that you'll never see
The promises you'll only make
Drink up with me now
And forget all about the pressure of days
Do what I say and I'll make you okay
And drive them away
The images stuck in your head
People you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still
Drink up baby, look at the stars
I'll kiss you again, between the bars
Where I'm seeing you there with your hands in the air
Waiting to finally be caught
Drink up one more time, and I'll make you mine
Keep you apart, deep in my heart
Separate from the rest, where I like you the best
And keep the things you forgot
People you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still

Between The Bars

I love writing lyrics, exploring tones, and conjuring melodies. Sometimes in that order.
