Description: this edition of “songs you’ll probably never hear” is really special to me because it touches on some topics that are really close to home right now… obviously the normal heartbreak bullshit but also the struggles of growing up, pressures of life and specifically the music industry, and fragile status of the world. anyway if u do hear them maybe you'll see what i mean..

Wow excellent work. So honest & vulnerable .  I love hearing youre lyrics and voice with a minimal acoustic instrumental line these .

songs that you'll probably never hear pt. 2

I still sleep

these are songs you’ll probably never hear, and I’m not saying that as some cute thing to grab your attention, that is just a fact of the matter.

they’ll never get some big fancy premiere, or have a beautiful expensive video attached to them.  they will probably never get uploaded to a big playlist or be heard on the radio.  and honestly that’s fine, you have no reason to care about these. there's a folder on my computer though, and it’s cleverly titled “songs you will probably never hear” because I know that they'll never come out. i hate that because even though they are demos they were definitely made from a real place, and they mean something, and they make me feel good.

so that's that, I don’t care if they aren’t produced out, or commercially viable, or have a catchy hook… i'm putting them out.  I could say they weren’t written for anyone other than myself but that would be a lie, they were written for someone else. and just like you, these are songs he'll probably never hear.

I wanna watch tv w u
wanna scroll my feed w u 
I wanna believe in u
I wanna live my life w u
and someday in a fight w u
I want my phone to die 4 u.
I want my phone to die 4 u.

all the words you haven't sent
always hurt, but heaven sent.
when I'm on my last percent, 
will you be the last person? 
running low on this content
summer of our discontent
when I'm on my last percent, 
will you be the last person? 

wanna be the thing u see
before u close ur eyes to sleep
tell me I'm ur lock screen dream.
someday we'll be dead and gone,
and all the kids at zebulon --
well we were miles ahead of 'em.
we were miles ahead of 'em. 

all the words you haven't sent
always hurt, but heaven sent.
when I'm on my last percent, 
will you be the last person? 
running low on this content
summer of our discontent
when I'm on my last percent, 
will you be the last person?

I was born millennial
so my fears are perennial 
and I got doubts in general.
I want you when the lights go out
to tell me turn my brightness down, 
everything is lighter now.
everything is lighter now.

i want you when the lights go out
to tell me turn my brightness down
everything is lighter now.
everything is lighter now.
everything is lighter now.
everything is lighter now.

Written 30,000 feet above ground on a flight between my mother country of Sweden and my apartment in Sydney’s inner west, Cranes laments the constant struggle of being split between two homes on the opposite sides of the world.

The positive pop anthem by Troy Ogletree and ÊMIA is streaming everywhere now!

Change (Troy Ogletree x ÊMIA)

My friend took me to dinner so I could unload all my emotional baggage; trust issues, crippling anxiety, the list goes on. Over wine and sh*t talk, I began feeling relieved until the convo flipped to her telling me she was getting ~MaRriEd~. Without hesitation, an untimely panic attack made its debut. The thought of love made me want to jump out of a moving car. Few see "The Cynic" in me, but I’m realizing I'm allowed to feel everything and be multidimensional, so this song is my jaded side.
