I composed, produced, wrote, sang, recorded, mixed, and mastered the song that you are listening to right now. It took me 9 months to get from the demo of the track to the finished version. 

Midas Touch is about reminiscing on the good parts of a past relationship. Even though it ended, you have to mourn the version of the person that you knew before. It’s possible to feel a super strong connection with someone, and then one day they just kick you to the curb. Those feelings don’t just disappear, so that’s why I wrote this song. I have experienced way too much heartache, and this song helped me heal from it.

I called this one “Midas Touch” because of the story of Midas from Greek mythology. I felt like the metaphor of Midas turning everything that he touches to gold was a valid representation of an ex-lover. Once you touch me, there’s no chance I will come back to life, because, well… I’ll be golden.

Lyrics:

(You’re cute telling lies)

Tell me how to love, how to feel
Cuz none of this is real to me
Can you tell a white lie?
(You’re cute telling lies)

Feeling kinda hellish tonight
I’d love for you to exercise your demons
Right on me

When you touch me, 
I turn golden
Baby, love me
Till the world ends
I can’t forget how we’re torn apart
Paper thin, but with a lionheart
When you love me,
I can’t come back to life

Touch me, 
I turn golden
Baby, love me
Till the world ends
I can’t forget how we’re torn apart
Paper thin, but with a lionheart
When you love me,
I can’t come back to life

When you touch me, 
I turn golden
Baby, love me
Till the world ends
I can’t forget how we’re torn apart
Paper thin, but with a lionheart
When you love me,
I can’t come back to life

Touch me, 
I turn golden
Baby, love me
Till the world ends
I can’t forget how we’re torn apart
Paper thin, but with a lionheart
When you love me,
I can’t come back to life

I've been thinking about doing a SOPHIE x Beyoncé mashup ever since I went to the Renaissance World Tour. I feel like SOPHIE's production could've easily fit on Renaissance, so I'm very grateful that these two bangers were in the same key. It was a *challenge* trying to mix the transition from the original PURE/HONEY into its acapella (around 1:50), but it was absolutely worth it.

Rest in power SOPHIE.

Charli XCX - The Spring Breakers (Avernon Remix)

I've been letting out
Some of my selfish tendencies
After all that's happened here
I still have hope you'll come to me

Now that time has grown
Are my reasons not enough?
I don't know how
But I wish we could talk

Every time I fear, I feel it's just
Every time I care, I fuck it up
Every time I kiss, I make it love

Every time I think, I think of us
Every time I dream, I know it's us
Every time I kiss, I make it love

I'll be waiting here 
For everything to be alright
Where's our happy ending?
Did we give it up for a fight?

Now that time has grown
Are my reasons not enough?
I don't know how
But I wish we could talk

Every time I fear, I feel it's just
Every time I care, I fuck it up
Every time I kiss, I make it love

Every time I think, I think of us
Every time I dream, I know it's us
Every time I kiss, I make it love
(love, love)

Every drink, every breath, every lover
Leads me to you, leads me to you
Every drink, every breath, every lover
(love, love)

Every drink, every breath, every lover
Leads me to you, leads me to you
Leads me back to losing (you)

Every time I fear, I feel it's just (ooh)
Every time I care, I fuck it up (ay)
Every time I kiss, I make it love 
(love, love)

Every time I think, I think of us (I think of us)
Every time I dream, I know it's us (I know it's us)
Every time I kiss, I make it love
(love, ooh)

Every drink, every breath, every lover
Leads me to you, leads me to you
Every drink, every breath, every lover
(love)

Every Time (I Make It Love)

I want my mind to be hollow
Keep on loving people that I don't know well
I'm infatuated with my corner of the world
I hate the way I look sometimes

(Forgot, forgot, bear the weight, weight, weight of the, weight of the world)
(Forgot, forgot, bear the weight, weight, weight of the, weight of the world)
(Forgot, forgot, bear the weight, weight, weight of the, weight of the world)
(Forgot, forgot, bear the weight, weight, weight of the, weight of the world)

I want my mind to be hollow
Keep on loving people that I don't know well
I'm infatuated with my corner of the world
I hate the way I look sometimes

I want my mind to be far gone
Keep on overthinking about the worries, tell
Yet still compare the weight of the world.
Can I just change my decay?

(Forgot, forgot, bear the weight, weight, weight of the, weight of the world)
(Forgot, forgot, bear the weight, weight, weight of the, weight of the world)

(Forgot, forgot, bear the weight, weight, weight of the, weight of the world)
(Forgot, forgot, bear the weight, weight, weight of the, weight of the world)

I want my mind to be hollow
Keep on loving people that I don't know well
I'm infatuated with my corner of the world
I hate the way I look sometimes

(Forgot, forgot, bear the weight, weight, weight of the, weight of the world)
(Forgot, forgot, bear the weight, weight, weight of the, weight of the world)

(Forgot, forgot, bear the weight, weight, weight of the, weight of the world)
(Forgot, forgot, bear the weight, weight, weight of the, weight of the world)
(Forgot, forgot, bear the weight, weight, weight of the, weight of the world)

Atlas

Why can't you be honest with me?
Reason with me?
I assured you you couldn't hurt me
I've tried
Now I'm leaving space for goodbye

Why can't you connect with my thoughts and feelings?
You don't notice the deep cuts on my side
Cause you just cut me with a knife

Ooh where does our love go?
I don't know
I've spent too much time wondering,
too much time living my own life

I don't know what you want me to be for you
I don't know if you want something new
Cause when it rains, it always pours
Do you want something more?
I need honesty to breathe through my lungs.

Be here with me, exist with me
I have myself accountable for your eyes
But my ego died in mine

Why can't you stand for what you believe in?
Baby, I convince myself I loved you
But the wounds healed too soon

Ooh where does our love go?
I don't know
I've spent too much time wondering,
too little time living my own life

I don't know what you want me to be for you
I don't know if you want something new
Cause when it rains, it always pours
Do you want something more?
I need honesty to breathe through my lungs.

You messed me up for good this time
Whenever I picture close my mind
I can picture us standing side by side
With the future blinding both our eyes
And we fantasized

But I chose you even when you didn't
I chose you even when you hid it
I hate you for telling me you did it
The silence hit different didn't it?

I don't know what you want me to be for you
I don't know if you want something new
Cause when it rains, it always pours
Do you want something more? (From me, baby?)
I need honesty to breathe through my lungs.

Cause when it rains, it always pours
Do you want something more?
I need honesty to breathe through my lungs.

Lungs

This isn't life as I know it
These are feelings they're hopeless
I might be alone forever but it's okay

(Hey you know what?)
It's so fucked but I didn't want it
Call my trust my achilles eyelids

Everything has been for you
I'm spiraling to forget about you
I wish I could've been safer

Everything has been so blue
I'm spiraling to forget about you
I wish, I wish, I wish I knew
Hurricanes

It's so fucked but I didn't want it
Call my trust my achilles eyelids

Everything has been for you
I'm spiraling to forget about you
I wish I could've been safer

Everything has been so blue
I'm spiraling to forget about you
I wish, I wish, I wish I knew
Hurricanes

Everything has been for you
I'm spiraling to forget about you
I wish I could've been safer

Everything has been so blue
I'm spiraling to forget about you
I wish, I wish, I wish I knew
