Have you ever tried
Have you ever tried to be
Six feet away from 
Your favorite place on earth
But you couldn’t find
But you couldn’t find it in you
To go back in there 
Cause when she left
She took the air with her 

You don’t wanna know
You don’t wanna know how it feels
When it's coming out of nowhere
Everybody knows
Everybody knows how she feels
Before she said that it was over 

Oh all my life
I’ve been the one who fights
For every love I’ve had
It all ends the same 
no matter how hard I try
Why am I the last to say goodbye

Have you every tried
Have you ever tried to see
What their lives would be like
If you disappeared from everyone you loved 
And would they even feel the change

Like you did when you watched your family 
Thirty-thousand feet above the sky
Cause when they left, they took the air with them
Pressure in their ears as they fly 

All my years
I've tried to stop these tears 
For every friend I've lost
It all ends the same
Now all my tears are dry
Why am I the first to say goodbye 

All my life
I've been the one who hides
From every pain unknown 
But it all ends the same 
Am I meant to be alone?
Why am I the first
Why am I the last
To say goodbye

The Last/The First (with Benny Manaligod)

Things She'll Never Know- Martti Franca

Twenty-Five. Yikes what a scary age. At 21 we go through life with a lot of hope that the next few years is gonna give us clarity, but in my experience, it's been the opposite. I'm glad to finally release one of my most personal songs about realizing how derailed we can be from our dreams. It's a calling to our hearts to remember why we loved our passions in the first place. It may be scary now but we're all in this together. Today has to be the day we do something for ourselves.

Shoutout to Rob Cham for the amazing artwork that perfectly shows how my anxiety feels like. Just amazing work.

I’d also like to give a shoutout to Jake Masigan for working with me patiently on this track, adding the electric guitar and keys, and making the song sound how it sounded in my head.

Stream it now on all major platforms.

Martti Franca - Twenty-Five

BARGAINING | Track 1 of 5

Not typically the first stage of grief, but this one was mine. It's the moment after a relationship when you try to salvage all the broken pieces and glue them together with promises one should have made a long time ago. It isn't immediately a heavy feeling, it's familiar. It's a fight that you've been through before but with a different ending.

SECRETS EP | Love You Right

DENIAL | Track 2 of 5

“I don’t mind, but I do.”

We all come to the stage of a break-up where it slowly starts to sink in that this is happening. This is real. You’re at the edge of completely accepting this new reality, but you’re still holding on to one last piece of hope. Maybe it’s in a form of a text, maybe it’s a call, maybe it’s a knock at your door. It’s not coming.

___________________________________________________________

Lucky you have someone who gets to come back to the places we'd be 
Lucky you have someone who holds you at night where my arms should be 
While I'm laying by myself 
Thinking bout where it all went wrong 

I don't mind at all
I don't mind,
But I do

When did you forget about the past three years 

It's not the first time I've loved 
But it's the first time that mattered
How do you move on 
When what once was so perfect is
Broken and battered 

I don't mind at all
I don't mind,
But I do

I thought we were jumping together
But someone held your hand 
while you let me fall 
No kicking, no screaming
Just left with no hope at all

I don't mind, but I do
I don't mind, but I do

SECRETS EP | Lucky

I flew to California, thinking I’d found home
But I was running away from it
30,000 feet and 7,000 miles
I learned the hard way,
It doesn’t change a thing

Didn’t know that ghosts, they follow
They live in places inside that’s hollow
They'll fill you up and say

What does it look like from halfway down
Would a breath feel easier if it stopped making sounds
Wouldn't it be great to have to never ask why
Cause right now San Francisco
Seems like the perfect place to die

I walked for hours from Post down to the bay
Maybe the sky might clear my mind right
Among the fleet of lovers, and dreamers of ballet
I thought I’d find hope, but no

Didn’t know that ghosts, they follow
They live in every moment borrowed
They’ll take the time to say

What does it look like from halfway down
Would a breath feel easier if it stopped making sounds
Wouldn't it be great to have to never ask why
Cause right now San Francisco
Seems like the perfect place to die

I’m on the edge of this
I’m on the precipice
Of knowing what it’d be like
Is it as painless and as fast as what they say

I flew to California, thinking I’d found home
But I was running away from it
