“Juniper is a song about perseverance and letting go of the need for protection. The Juniper tree is a reference to a biblical story where it protected the angels from the gaze of the devil. The Juniper tree was a metaphor for me personally to describe how I’m ready to step out of the shadow of the tree and head out into the sun. Carrying on with a positive mindset and letting go of what has held me back.” - Zes

~ Lyrics ~
By the break of day
I’ll go
Gotta pave the way
Out of here
The ground is shaking under my feet, still
Let the juniper tree crumble on the wayside

Cause I got
Daybreak always in the crosshairs
Truth dies out the more that I taste it
Game faces up until the last take
I’ll carry on until the light’s faded
Faded

By the first sight of rain
I’ll sleep
Taking everything
To find my peace
The ground is shaken up, enough for me
And the juniper tree blossoms in the sunlight

Cause I got
Daybreak always in the crosshairs
Truth dies out the more that I taste it
Game faces up until the last take
I’ll carry on until the light’s faded
Faded

I take it all back
I’m climbing up the steps
I can’t hold on forever
As the juniper tree crumbles on the hillside

✧ Lyrics
with a meantime, meanwhile, clear-cut conscience
let the paraffin prop me up
take a couple more swings, hope I get it all wrong
‘cause permanent never seems permanent enough

I wash from beige to blue
I was never that lost, just afraid to lose
lacquer my luck so pale to prove
this heart don’t break the way it used to

give me that strong stuff
who says anything lasts that long?
like a secondhand head rush
I miss that saw-cut way that it was
with everything honest
that kerosene shine, that acetone touch
and I don’t mind my colours might run
I’ve had enough half-strength second-guess love

none of it ever feels permanent enough

I’m a paradise plastic slight spitting image
but everything lasts just as long as it did
in a year spent white-knuckle waiting at the finish
I finally understand, just another couple minutes

you can watch me wash from beige to blue
I was never that lost, just afraid to lose
lacquer my luck so pale to prove
this heart don’t break the way it used to

give me that strong stuff
who says anything lasts that long?
like a secondhand head rush
I miss that saw-cut way that it was
with everything honest
that kerosene shine, that acetone touch
and I don’t mind my colours might run
I’ve had enough half-strength second-guess love

I don’t care I’m coming undone
who says anything ever lasts that long?
I don’t mind my colours might run
I’ve had enough half-strength second guess love
I don’t care I’m coming undone

On Planets - secondguess

"To Leave and Come Back is a constellation of songs about the many facets of love and its misplacement, solitude, naivete and hubris, but most importantly the absurd ways that they reflect upon and refract each other while the world spins endlessly. These songs span the course of many relationships, homes, jobs; in some ways, each song was almost written by an entirely different person than the last. However, each is an integral part of the story, and come together to form an abstract yet (hopefully) poignant picture of me, in my world." - @onplanets

✧ Lyrics
she speaks in acronym,
been sighing at the top of her lungs
she’s so convincing when she laughs and leads it on

and I’ve been rinsing off
all the colours of a love
that I picked up when I was certain I would never come undone

and I don’t love her
but with this manufactured, sentimental buffer
she really compliments my stubborn side and silence that I keep
until I’m drunk as hell and all the strings come out,
what it’s always been about
can’t she tell

I was tied up trying to tie off loose ends
and pulling on a pretty long thread when I should’ve known better
I had to try hard not to make promises
it left me with a question on the conscience
out of luck and out of context

it was a long time coming
still not long enough
but reticent as ever, she watched me come undone
and I don’t love her
but with this manufactured, sentimental buffer
she really compliments my stubborn side and silence that I keep
until I’m drunk as hell and all the strings come out,
what it’s always been about
can’t she tell

I was tied up trying to tie off loose ends
and pulling on a pretty long thread when I should’ve known better
I had to try hard not to make promises
it left me with a question on the conscience
out of luck and out of context

I hope I’ve learnt enough and haven’t fallen off
(I don’t love her)

There is a quote that I swear I read somewhere; I thought it was maybe in a Dostoevsky novel, but I have never been able to track it down. Maybe I just made it up. It’s something along the lines of: “everyone, from time to time, secretly yearns for their own undoing”. It feels good to get in your own way a little bit sometimes—a twisted sort of relief from the pressure of always getting it right.

I guess if I did make the line up and no one has ever said it before, you can just quote me on it now.

LYRICS
isn’t it a long life?
tell you all about it like it’s all I want
another long night
dreaming up my beautiful downfall

circles, folded arms 
I thought you wanted nothing more than love
the certain sort of trouble I start
solar farm on a hillside heart
sure it’s nothing short of sabotage
high time I let it drop
not now, not farther than I thought

isn’t it a long life?
tell you all about it like it’s all I want
another long night
dreaming up my beautiful downfall
it’s high time I let it drop
it’s high time I let it fall far
can’t lie, I like a little bad blood
a little bit of sabotage
so cry sabotage

chalk it up a change of pace
the falling face, the fade away
I thought you wanted nothing but the same
short sight loud
weathervane strange
spinning to the same damn shade of grey
I’m told that I’ve been falling out of phase
phasing out, now

isn’t it a long life?
tell you all about it like it’s all I want
another long night
dreaming up my beautiful downfall
it’s high time I let it drop
it’s high time I let it fall far
can’t lie, I like a little bad blood
a little bit of sabotage
so cry sabotage

it’s high time, love

“I started off writing about a specific person who turned out to be a completely different person I thought they were when I met them. I left the song to sit for a few months, and the meaning completely changed for me. It went from being a song about a person, to a song about my relationship with mental health. ‘Friends Now’ is about being at odds with your brain, and wanting nothing more than to be okay with yourself when going through turbulent times. I love that the song can be read as both a ‘self vs. person’ and ‘self vs. self’ way depending on how you're feeling.” - Former Hero

~Lyrics~

Hello,
Is this where you thought you'd be today?
How far,
Can we make it before we lose our way?
I'm so sorry but I don't know what you're saying
I'm so sorry but I don't know where you're going with this.
Where are we?
I'm so sorry but I don't know what you're saying
I'm so sorry but I don't know if you wanna stay.
So stay.
So tell me are we friends now?
Tell me that you're all in my head.
Tell me that i'm worth this.
Just hold me closer instead.
So tell me that we're friends now.

Friends Now
