If only I had known
I'd be running through the rocks
To get a little closer
I'd be sitting on the dock
Well I want you to be home
Where we can kick it we can toss

It hits a little different now
Since you've opened up your eyes
Yeah I was slow, I should've known
That's how it goes it's dark but I
Want it to be known
I want you to be my light

Yeah I want it to be known
That I want you to be home but
Yeah I was slow, I should've known
That's how it goes
Sometimes in life you can't
Get what you like

Found the fools gold
Yeah I saw it spark
I needed light, I was in the dark
No amount of money
Would keep my eyes from it
Then I grew old
Yeah I grew apart
From my perfect sight
Saw black and white
I was a shark with no love
Or no colour in my life
No colour in my life

So every day I roam
But can never seem to hitch a ride
Guess I'm alone, all on my own
So it's whatever if I just
Want to be home
Just want you to be beside

Yeah I want it to be known
That I want you to be home but
Yeah I was slow, I should've known
That's how it goes
Sometimes in life you can't
Get what you like, no
Sometimes in life you can't
Get what you like, no

My Burrow

Never Break

Something New

City Ate My Girl

This first collab of many more to come is an alluring journey into the depths of longing for fonder memories. 

We wanted to capture that oddly captivating sensation of replaying those perfect memories, so often poisoned by the idea that you might never experience them the same way again. 

Playfully cosy instrumentation drives towards an energetic acceptance of those forlorn desires, with lyrics that dissect the alluring lie that the grass is always greener on the other side. 

Floating melodies seamlessly solidify into a sonic metaphor of always wanting more, always searching for a stronger feeling. 

A deeper blue. Something 'Other Than Orange'.
