Such a good hook, reminds me of the 90's.

Dive into the hypnotic and timeless, 'Honey.’ A head-out-the-sunroof dream pop anthem, infused with notes of '90s grunge. Majestic pads, heavy guitar, and punchy drums create a feel-good joyride. The ethereal vocal melody tells the story of an unsettling romantic desire: 'laced with an essence of disgrace, and pleasure painted on your face.' A coming-of-age journey of self-discovery and exploration, 'Honey' merges classic and modern sounds harmoniously.

Lyrics:
There’s something dysfunctional about the way this works
I can’t recognise
Why there’s something so fun to me about the way it hurts
When I fantasise

Stuck in the corners of my mind
It’s watching art before my eyes
It feels so good to be apart
Laced with an essence of disgrace
And pleasure painted on your face
It sounds so wrong but feels so nice

Undecided whether you deserve to have your cake
And eat it too
But electric currents running through my legs and to my brain
Say eat till your full

Stuck in the corner of a room
Passion on which my eyes are glued
Tsunami’s dripping from inside
Laced with an essence of disgrace and pleasure painted on your face
It sounds so wrong it must be right

And oh no
These feelings are consuming me
But I can’t wait for you to dip into honey

So sweet
Slippery
So warm 
and lovely

And oh no
These feelings are consuming me
But I can’t wait
For you to dip into honey

Honey

An exploration through the best of rock and electronica, "Empty as Always" delves into themes of inner healing and the tumultuous path of personal growth. With a symphony of distinct sounds that tickle every corner of the mind, from melodic guitar and synths complimented by breakbeats and bongo drums. It fastens you to a rocket and propels you into the unexpected. The grand uniqueness transports you to unanticipated realms, surpassing expectations and leading you on an unforgettable expedition.

Lyrics:
Locked in love
But not sure it could measure up
Self control
Is not enough to feed my soul

Lacking in self praise
I’m empty as always
Chemicals have worn down
All the drugs don’t work now
Sudden introversion
I’m a different person now

All that growth
It somehow happened on its own
In a zone
Yet somehow I still feel the load

Despite all my cliches
I’m empty as always
Everyone I’ve drowned out
Keeps on speaking so loud
With the same perversions
I’m a different person now

Don’t remember who I was before
It's something that I'm supposed to feel good for
Waiting for the day when I’ll explore it
If that day ever comes

Despite all my cliches
I’m empty as always
Everyone I’ve drowned out
Keeps on speaking so loud
With the same perversions
I’m a different person now

Empty as Always

Lyrics:
I think it’s time we said goodbye
Let’s stop kidding ourselves, alright?
We knew this wasn’t working out
Deep down we’ve always had our doubts

Let go instead of holding on
To something we don’t want no more

You’ll become another
Memory in my mind
Just one more soulmate who’s
Floating through time

I wish I could forget
But you’ll be here living on inside of my head
I’ll just savour one more day
Until I say “I’ll miss you”
and as badly as I don’t want to admit
It’s time to let you go

Let’s down the hard to swallow pill
And not tell each other how it feels

I’ll put you down off the
Pedestal you’re on
I’ll realise you’re just a
Regular woman

Time to let you go
