My album is a story of triumph, of letting go of all the uncertainty in my head and learning to walk the path of my own heart. “Sincerely” is about realizing how much better this world would be if we all loved ourselves, if we weren’t afraid of being vulnerable and honest. It doesn’t matter who’s president or what technology we invent or what extremists we destroy, the only thing I know is this:

There will never be peace if we do not all love ourselves.

I kept asking myself, why them and not me?

Crossfire

He'd trade his guns for love,
But he’s caught in the crossfire,
And he keeps wakin up,
But its not to the sound of birds,
The tyranny, the violent streets,
Deprived of all that we’re blessed with,
And we can’t get enough

Heaven if you sent us down,
So we could build a playground,
For the sinners, to play as saints,
You’d be so proud of what we made
I hope you got some beds around,
Cuz you’re the only refuge now,
For every mother, every child, every brother,
That’s caught in the Crossfire

I’d trade my luck to know,
Why he's caught in the crossfire,
And I’m here wakin' up,
To the sun and the sound of birds,
Society’s anxiety,
Deprives of all that we’re blessed with,
We just cant get enough

Heaven if you sent us down,
So we could build a playground,
For the sinners, to play as saints,
You’d be so proud of what we made
I hope you got some beds around,
Cuz you’re the only refuge now,
For every mother, every child, every brother,
Who’s caught in the Crossfire

Can I trust what I’m given?
When faith still needs a gun,
Whose ammunition,
Justifies the wrong?
And I can’t see, from the backseat,
So I’m asking from above,
Can I trust what I’m given,
Even when it cuts?

So Heaven if you sent us down,
So we could build a playground,
For the sinners, to play as saints,
You’d be so proud of what we made
I hope you got some beds around,
Cuz you’re the only refuge now,
For every mother, every child, every brother

Who’s caught in the crossfire,
Who’s caught in the crossfire,
Who’s caught in the crossfire,
Who’s caught on the cross...

Lyrics:

There’s a shred of hope that won’t die
Even though we both know it’s goodbye
Thought I could make it hurt less if I just pretend 
It was you who would love me till the very end

I’ve always wanted you, but now the truth is clear
Time to let go of you, my dear

So I erase your lovely face
You’re just a silhouette now deep inside of my mind
Then you hold me in the dark
Feel that old familiar spark

Been so long since you came down
I forgot how your voice sounds
Eyes and lips, all your features meeting their demise
You’re just skin on a creature that I don’t recognize

I’m so afraid to feel you slowly fade away
If we’re not meant to be, okay

So I erase your lovely face
You’re just a silhouette now deep inside of my mind
Then you hold me in the dark
Feel that old familiar spark
I can make you disappear
But your memory is always here

Rising slow and falling steady
Love will settle when it’s ready

Paracosm
