Name: Know Better (Demo) by James Edward
Duration: 2 min 57 s
Description: Piano ballad about when your friends don’t text or call you back and feed you excuses about why they’re too busy to love you back

It’s a song about reassuring somebody you love that you’re sticking around, and wanting to help them see what you see in them.

Come Alive

I felt the need to shred a lot. So here's that.

Hammertime

Gone

Passing By (Slowed and Reverb)

My attempt to rip off Bon Iver and Novo Amor (as usual)

When I Get There (Demo)

Lyrics

Blues attached to outside memorabilia 
Playing on the swings when you jumped off
The ground attacked, you broke your leg to pieces
You cried until the doctor cut it off

Green's attached to previous locations
Comfy occupations I miss that
Now here I am, The bottom of the ladder
Where I dont really matter and no one does

And it's all a circle it comes back around
I'm running in a circle, alone
Circle up and circle down
I'm running in a circle the best I know how

Then the finger trap
Caused me lots of panic till I found out the mechanics behind that beast
When I was free, I stuck my fingers back in 
But this time I was laughing it had no hold on me

Finger Trap

Piano ballad about when your friends don’t text or call you back and feed you excuses about why they’re too busy to love you back

Dangerous

James Edward is an American songwriter whose sound is fresh but nostalgic, taking listeners through themes of the human condition, love, loneliness, and desire. Their debut EP, "All That We Have", contains songs that feel very dreamy, and dance between genres, with a focus on vocal layering, lush guitars, and orchestral arrangements. Lyrically, there's a heart of commitment and endurance through life's most difficult and unsteady times, the fleeting nature of existence, a yearning to be with the ones you love, and adjusting to new, unexpected ways of living through tragedy and uncertainty. The EP is produced by Eric Andrew Taylor (Bryan & Katie Torwalt, Logan Pilcher, Skylar Capri) and mastered by Jonathan Berlin (JOHNNYSWIM) and was released September 30, 2022.
