ngl i thought this was an original song until my harry obsessed friend was talking abt it 😭

this songs for u 
do t know if you’ll hear it
but if you do…
hi

i’m sorry that it’s been so long and that i had to say it through a song- but i miss u
and u know i wish we could be friends, but i think that u know how that ends, don’t u?

i could say i love you for the thousandth time
i could write a different song that you don’t even like
cause it sounds just the same 
as every other song that i write

i could say i’m better off 
it would be a lie
i could say i’m happy you’re happy, which is true kind of
i mean i’m glad you can move on though i wish u wouldn’t have gone in the first place
so much to say…
but instead, i’ll just say 
hi

hi (demo)

my heart is heavy and the road is long
but i’ll walk steady and i’ll stay strong
starting to think i don’t know you at all
but i’ll walk steady and i’ll sing my song

i think of you every time i blink
i think of you every time i blink

you wanna dance but you don’t know how
so step on my feet i’ll teach you right now
your heart it yearns for someone new
but my heart it yearns for you

i think of you every time i blink
i think of you every time i blink

you don’t say goodnight the same way anymore and you just aren’t as tender as before 

i think of you every time i blink
i think of you every time i blink

i think of you every time i blink
i think of you every time i blink

every time i blink (demo)

I think you’ve met the girl you’re gonna marry, and I wanna be happy for you, but the truth is it’s still hard for me to imagine, that it won’t be me saying “I Do.”

And you’ll cry as she walks the aisle, she looks so beautiful in white, while I won’t even be invited, to see you make someone else, your wife...

Pillow Talk

For all the people who are missing someone. I feel you.

tired || firestone
02.28.16.

as I cling to my pillow, my heartbeat pulses through,
i'll pretend that it's yours, that the pillow is you


oh, I'm tired
oh, it's late
oh, I'm on fire
I wanna see you again

as I cling to pillow, all alone in the dark, 
I long to see you again, I long to be where you are

oh, I'm tired
oh, it's late
oh, I'm on fire
I wanna see you again

as I cling to my pillow, I think I can almost hear you,
I miss the sound of your voice, I miss being near you

oh, I'm tired
oh, it's late
oh, I'm on fire
I wanna see you again

as I cling to my pillow, my tears are salty and sweet, 
I hope you know I miss you, maybe now i'll sleep

oh, I'm tired
oh, it's late
oh, I'm on fire
I wanna see you again
I hope I'll see you again
I need to see you again
I know I'll see you again

dear happy

cover of talking in code by margot and the nuclear so and so's 

lyrics:
I gotta go, and you're talking in code 
Saying I know where you've been and I know where you go
But I've been tired from the minute I woke
I stopped listening the moment you spoke
And said I'm long gone
Yeah, I'm long gone
And I'm sleeping alone 
In a house I don't own 
'Cause if you're touring your mind 
You'll get lost every time 
You'll sing me sad songs to keep me awake 
In that bedroom where we hid away 
Baby, I'm long gone
Yeah, I'm long gone
And your voice cracks like a piano
You keep moving
But where are you going? 
Baby, we're long gone 
Yeah, we're long gone

talking in code

This was written as a confessional of sorts to the typical "Have you ever been in love before?" question that is asked in a new relationship. This song is my really poetic and pretentious way to say "Yes, twice, I think." 

lyrics: 
my freshman year i gave myself a stick-and-poke tattoo
2am with my best friend on the floor of my hall bathroom
the first initial of the boy i loved, he left me within the month
but you can still see it when i wear open-toed shoes

bad decisions made in permanent ink
too young to care, or too young to think that
people would change and love would do the same
bad decisions i can't erase when i hear bad decisions
i still see the place where i tattooed the first initial of my first love's name

bad decisions, bad decisions

Bad Decisions

A song hoping if something were different about me or him... that we would be together.

lyrics: 
if things were different, and we weren't a year apart
if things were different, and i loved with my head instead of my heart
if things were different, i wonder how they'd be 
and i wonder i there'd be a you and me

if things were different, and i wasn't moving away this fall
if things were different, maybe things wouldn't be different at all
if things were different, i like to believe
that there would be a you and me

if things were different, and i'd've met you first
if things were different, and she looked like me or i looked like her
if things were different, i wonder how they'd be 
and i wonder i there'd be a you and me

If Things Were Different

I wrote this song because one time I couldn’t find the black polish at the nail salon, so whenever the lady asked me my color and I said “I couldn’t find the black, but that’s what I want,” she said “You look like the type to paint your nails black.” Which is an odd thing to say. And I still have no idea what that means. But it was enough for me to create a narrative for black vs. white polish girls. 

lyrics:
i am the type to have nails painted black
i am the type to listen rather than talk back
i am the type of girl who is good on the side
she is the type to have nails painted white
she is the type to keep talking to you all night
facetime till you fall asleep, she says “i love u, goodnight”
that’s more your type

i am the type who likes time apart
i am the type good at breaking my own heart 
i am the type of girl boys only love at night
she is the type that you take home to mom
beautiful girl next door, there all along
she is the type of girl you love in the light
that’s more your type

i am the type to have nails painted black
i am the type to assume you’ll attack
if i tear down my walls, and let you see what’s inside
she is the type to have nails painted white
she is the type that will make a great wife
she’ll be okay, she’ll be alright 
but if one day you find there’s something missing in your life
i’ll be your type

Your Type

decided to do a lil cover of from the dining table which could quite possibly be my favorite Harry Styles song ever!
i wrote quite a bit of harmony which was overly ambitious for someone who sucks at remembering parts and doesn’t know how to mix but here we are! 
hope u like it!
the piano is from sing2piano on youtube I think

Hey! My name is Leanna Firestone! It's kind of unbelievable that I'm writing a bio for myself right now; I don't really feel important enough to need one. But- in case I am to you, Here's some information about me: I'm freshly 20, I'm a recent college dropout, and I write and sing songs.   In 2020, the worst year of everyone's collective consciousness, I started making TikToks. At first, I was just talking about anime... but eventually I started singing, which is my passion, end game, and dream job. (I know, the lamest origin story ever.) But from these TikToks, I started to release music and things inevitably snowballed and people started to really care about me and my music. Because of this support, I was able to live my dream. My greatest musical achievements to date are: my song Strawberry Mentos reaching 5M streams, Least Favorite Only Child reaching 4M streams, my EP, "Y/N" peaking at #8 on the US singer-songwriter iTunes Charts, having a song of mine play while two people made out during an episode of Love Island UK, and getting 2nd place in my 8th grade talent show with my song "Stars".   Most notably though, I put out my debut EP "Y/N" (pronounced Your Name) and launched my first round of merchandise. And next on the horizon is a debut album, coming in 2022.
