LYRICS
Now I am home
I can feel wind on my skin
Feel true love from within battle scars
Now I'm reborn
Can occupy space in my body
Surgery gave me freedom
 
How long can you put up 
With doctors making decisions about your life
My body, my choices
I am so fed up
Of asking for approval and being doubted
Seen as abnormal
 
Now I am home
I can feel wind on my skin
Feel true love from within battle scars
Now I'm reborn
Can occupy space in my body
Surgery gave me freedom
 
No more waking up at 3 o' clock
Panic mode, trying to accept this body is yours
Seeing in the window of a crowded street
'I'm still not as flat as the boy next to me'
Your binder in the closet, it gave you too much pain
But mentally this is suffocating too in a way
There's no one here, no one there, 
No one that looks like you,
Your life is the joke in a hollywood cartoon
 
Home
I've been searching for it
Like a snail, lost without it
Home
I've been searching for it
Now I have found my
 
Home
I can feel wind on my skin
Feel true love from within battle scars
Now I'm reborn
Can occupy space in my body
Surgery gave me freedom

Transition Town

Reborn

Reborn ft. Ryan Cassata

LYRICS
No need to worry, we won’t fade
History proved our existence and here
You are shining in your own way
We’ll fight back
No need to worry, no need to break
You’ll be alright here, you'll be made
Into the image you’ve always chased
In the mirror
 
For the longest time
You’ve been locked up in a way
You go for air outside
But that’s where you feel unsafe
 
Your voice is amplified, amplified
Carried by a whole crowd, a whole crowd
Your voice is amplified, amplified
Carried by a whole crowd, a whole crowd
 
No need to worry, we won’t fade
History proved our existence and here
You are shining in your own way
We’ll fight back
No need to worry, no need to break
You’ll be alright here, you'll be made
Into the image you’ve always chased
In the mirror
 
For the longest time
You’ve been locked up in a way
You go for air outside
But that’s where you feel unsafe
 
You lie to your mother
You lie to your father every day
Bad times with your lover
Can’t hold hands in a public space
You hate your president
Who tries to take your rights away
You live in a country
Spreading messages of hate
 
No need to worry, no need to break
You’ll be alright here, you'll be made
Into the image you’ve always chased
In the mirror
No need to worry, we won’t fade
History proved our existence and here
You are shining in your own way
We’ll fight back
 
The only way
Is to believe we’re all the same
Deserving of respect
Deserving of love

No Need To Worry

LYRICS
Forgive me I wake up in sweats
For a minute the world doesn't end 
Then it hits me, it all comes back again
Thousands killed and I'm locked in my head
 
Oh the worst part is seeing it on the news
There's a whole generation that died in one room
Oh the worst part is sitting it out alone
Alone
 
Forgive me I wake up in sweats
For a minute the world doesn't end 
Then it hits me, it all comes back again
Thousands killed and I'm locked in my head
 
Oh the worst part is when you realise
There's no one that cares, no one that replies
Oh the worst part is sitting it out alone
Alone 
 
Forgive me I wake up in sweats
For a minute the world doesn't end 
Then it hits me, it all comes back again
Thousands killed and I'm locked in my head
 
For a minute the world doesn't end 
For a minute the world doesn't end 
For a minute the world doesn't end 
Thousands killed and I'm locked in my head

Locked In My Head

LYRICS 
You´ll find, you´ll find out
In time, that I’m not right 
For you and when you realise
Our ocean will split in separate sides 
Don´t lie, real friends don´t lie 
You´ll take the drugs you hide
From everyone but me
Like pills you used me on the daily
 
It's sad I always fall for
Porcelain types broken to their core
But I do hope you will have
A bright future ahead and that you'll heal from your past 
 
You´ll find, you´ll find out
In time, that I’m not right 
For you and when you realise
Our ocean will split in separate sides 
Don´t lie, real friends don´t lie 
You´ll take the drugs you hide
From everyone but me
Like pills you used me on the daily
 
It's never really over 
Until emotions fade away and if I'm honest
My heart just knew 
Yours would pull me into a darkness i outgrew
 
Don't lie 
 
Is sadness a constant feeling 
Is sadness a constant feeling 
Is sadness a constant feeling 
In your corpse 
Don´t lie 
Don´t lie 
Don´t lie 
Don´t lie 
Don´t lie 
Don´t lie 
Don´t lie 
Don´t lie 
 
Is self-harm the only healing 
Is self-harm the only healing 
Is self-harm the only healing 
You know
Don´t lie 
Don´t lie 
Don´t lie 
Don´t lie

Compulsive Liar

LYRICS
Find all the energy to flee away from here
Hide your flag in your bag, watch borders disappear
Load your battery, you're pink and they can see
Love is just love, love is love
It knows no boundaries
 
You’ve got a ticket to love
Limitless and free
Carry your home in your heart
And your pride on your sleeve
 
You sing 
‘Love is love 
Is that a lie?’
 
Find all the energy to flee away from here
Hide your flag in your bag, watch borders disappear
Load your battery, you're pink and they can see
Love is just love, love is love
It knows no boundaries
 
‘Love is love 
Is that a lie?’
You sing 
‘Love is love 
Is that a lie?’
 
Home is right here with you
Home is right here with you
Home is right here with you
Home is right here with you

LYRICS
Boys will be girls
Girls will be boys
Why can't you speak affirming words
My mental pain to you is just
Collateral damage

Something changed in 
How you read 
We're not on the same page
See other words, definitely
Reading a different chapter

I don't mind
If you don't try
I'll always try anyway
But i can't lie
In my mind
I change the words you say

Dear child in me
One day you'll be
Who you were meant to be
No nasty slurs 
In the hallway
Or cobwebs in your brain

There's beauty hidden
In your change
But still your heart 
Stays the same
Some added scars
Blood in your veins
Feels yours, not fake

I don't mind
If you don't try
I'll always try anyway
But i can't lie
In my mind
I change the words you say

Do you ever think of the young me
I do

Dear Child In Me

LYRICS
Please complain
Pretend that you’re god
I won’t change
Believe it or not
Live my way
It’s all that i’ve got
Blessed I’m all that you’re not

Why do you pray for me like I carry disease
I don’t need you to pray for me 
Your hands are dirty 

Please complain
Pretend that you’re god
I won’t change
Believe it or not
Live my way
It’s all that I’ve got
Blessed I'm all that you’re not

Why not be silent 
Why not be silent

Why do you pray for me like I carry disease
I don’t need you to pray for me 
Your hands are dirty 

Why do you pray for me like I carry disease
I don’t need you to pray for me 
Your hands are dirty

Please complain
Pretend that you’re god

Pretend That You're God

Sometimes I forget how much this song once meant to me. When I heard this live demo everything kind of came back, but in a good way. Does that make sense :)?

U2 - American Soul/Get Out Of Your Own Way/The Blackout (Mashup Cover | Songs Of Experience)

This is the acoustic version of 'Thunder', a song written by me (Eyemèr) and arranged by Simbai. Released on NCS! Enjoy! 
Below you can find the lyrics to this song I wrote:

LYRICS
So I’ve come to the conclusion I’m just a rotten piece of fruit
so I’ll end up dying slowly, rotting away.
See I just want to be able to climb without a fall,
to get out of this mazeland and run.

Please strike me thunder, let me get closer to the light
let me go under the water till I can’t breathe right.

(Under the water)

So I’ve come to the conclusion 
I’m just one man amongst thousands,
in this world I loathe I’m sure they’ll do fine without me.
The chemicals in my head don’t work as yours -
'cause every piece of rope is a little bit of happiness 
and every gun I load causes a little bit less regret.

Eyemèr - Thunder (Original Acoustic Version)

The title ‘Good Mourning To You’ is a play on words. It refers to the grieving process that Eyemèr went through when they lost someone to suicide. When someone dies in such a way, feelings of guilt often haunt those who are left behind. In addition, Eyemèr experienced a process similar to ‘mourning’ when someone in their family could no longer be truly present due to a mental illness. With the saying ‘Good Mourning To You’, Eyemèr wants to uplift those who are currently processing a loss.

For many years already, Eyemèr has been working to break the stigma surrounding mental health using melancholic indie sounds and activist lyrics. Since 2018, which marks the year the artist came out of the closet as non-binary (not man or woman), they have also started writing about their genderqueerness. Eyemèr hopes to spotlight both the mental health theme and non-binary theme and normalize these.
