somber feelings aren’t there to control
but hiding it almost worse you know 
filling up inside till there’s no pain
until contentments almost lost its place

alter so it doesn’t show
so you have a place to go
alter so it doesn’t show
so you have a chance to flow

sentimental tenderness is flawed
when caring for yourself won’t last as long
all we’re waiting for is to adorn
fickle minded heads have yet to learn

alter so it doesn’t show
so you have a place to go
alter so it doesn’t show
so you have a chance to flow

Lyrics: 

See me as your enemy, or see me as your friend
It is 19 months since I was there, and held you in my hand
It is 18 since I told you, and you took away my name

Now when you saw me, you turned away your head
You won't forgive me, and I will understand
Now and then

Used to be your future, now you see me as your end
When you're hiding, we're colliding
Better be, and stop pretend
I was silent, you were blind
Better leave those fears behind

If you're still bleeding, see me as a friend
You won't believe me
And I will understand
Now and then
Now and then

You won't believe me
Won't be an end
I know you're done, ignored and gone, but I'm around
If you see light in fighting me, you'll be your enemy

And still today, you will not pretend
You won't believe me
And I will understand
Now and then

Now & Then

“Riding on the wave of a successful single release, with support from Too Future, Run The Trap, IndieFeed, and us here at EarMilk, west coast singer-songwriter Chase McBride releases his new full-length album, “Cold Water”. The collection of eight songs, written during a transitional creative period, reveal a fresh, more distilled version of McBride’s previous folk sound.” - EarMilk

The oldest of the three
You said that the first time you spoke to me
You always had to lead
You seem to have everything you need

The days, they move easy
The waves, they don't mean as much to me as I used to believe
The days, they move easy
It occurs, when you are here the waves they wash away from me

To be honest
I could see
It in your eyes
When you kissed me tangerine
If all this
Is a dream
I wouldn't mind us
Drifting to sleep

The days, they move easy
The waves, they don't mean as much to me as I used to believe
The days, they move easy
It occurs, when you are here the waves they wash away from me

Cold Water

LYRICS:
Hearts like leaves they float along
Where oh where do they belong
Hearts like leaves they float around
Will they ever find the ground?

Tired of winds that change my ways
Won't you give our hearts some weight
Won't you give our hearts some weight
So we fall in the right places

Hearts like leaves they're to and fro
Hard to know where they will go
Aren't you tired of floating on
Floating til your time is gone

Tired of winds that change my ways
Won't you give our hearts some weight
Won't you give our hearts some weight
So we fall in the right places

When the winds have changed my ways
Won't you give our hearts some weight
Won't you give our hearts some weight
So we fall in the right places

LYRICS

Do you wanna go
To a place with no feeling
Do you wanna know
The shapes that I'm seeing
Thinking of you as I'm falling 
Breathing for two as you're stalling 
Over and over again,
Over and over again,

Coz I just wanna feel you,
So won't you take me back to the place I knew
Coz I just wanna feel you,
Over and over again

You used to have me paralysed,
But here I go again,
These thoughts they only agonise,
What is real in the end,
Don't you know
But here I go again

You only see what you wanna see,
Hear what you wanna hear,
You only feel what you wanna feel,
So take what you want from me,

Coz I just wanna feel you,
So won't you take me back to the place I knew
Coz I just wanna feel you,
Over and over again

You used to have me paralysed,
But here I go again,
These thoughts they only agonise,
What is real in the end,
Don't you know
But here I go again

As we fade into black and white, 
We went wrong so we could go right,
As our shade turns into light,
I save myself tonight,

You used to have me paralysed,
But here I go again,
These thoughts they only agonise,
What is real in the end,

Don't you know

You used to have me paralysed,
But here I go again,
These thoughts they only agonise,
What is real in the end,

Don't you know
But here I go again

Lyrics:

Run to the sea, run far away from me
As far as you can, from your reality 
Run to be strong, to where your desires belong 
Run to believe, inside your mind I will be 

You are free 
Let no one here know, ‘til you reach
The place where it's your turn to teach 
That if you once know, you run for your dream 

Run from my heart, run from what started you breath
Run from your sky, the darkness here won't let you feel
Run from your start
Nothing that stays here succeeds
Run far now run 
Run out and follow your dreams

You are free 
Let no one here know, till you reach
The place where it's your turn to teach 
That if you once know, you run for your dream

📝 Lyrics:

‘As You Go’

Where did I go wrong

The moon shines on the lonely road

When tears fill up your eyes

Could be the last time that you will see mine

You don't have to stay

Darling if you feel you have to go

If you run away

Just take the sunshine with you as you go

I'm singing to your ghost

Still dream of the one I miss the most

The sweetest days I've known

It felt like yesterday, but that was long ago

It felt like yesterday, but that was long ago

You don't have to stay

Darling if you feel you have to go

If you run away

Just take the sunshine with you as you go  

Just take the sunshine with you as you go  

You don't have to stay

Darling if you feel you have to go

When those clouds get in your way

Just take the sunshine with you as you go  

Just take the sunshine with you as you go

Just take the sunshine with you as you go

Jordy Maxwell - As You Go (with lyrics)

[Lyrics]
Trying hard not to start but it's all I know
Losing light, losing time, losing all control
Never been one to settle for anything less or more
Trying hard not to start, not to start a war
(oohs)

Me, I got this chip on shoulder, trying hard to get no older
I don't wanna be your soldier, see I just wanna get no older

Father mine, you've had time, won't you please chime in?
Father time, tell me when, tell me where does this end?
In desperate need of a second wind
Trying hard not to start, not to start again

Me, I got this chip on shoulder, trying hard to get no older
I don't wanna be your soldier, see I just wanna get no older
So won't you hold me closer, oh before be get any older
And you should kiss me slower, I promise you we'll get no older

(No Older)

Me, I got this chip on shoulder, trying hard to get no older
I don't wanna be your soldier, see I just wanna get no older
So won't you hold me closer, oh before be get any older
And you should kiss me slower, I promise you we'll get no older

No Older

So Sweet

Jaguar Sun - Those Days

This is a song that at its very core captures a concoction of positive feelings; freedom, happiness, love.

It is a healthy emotional outpour from deep within the soul sparked by a desire for connection and authenticity.

I wrote it when I came back from touring Europe last year (2019) and was high on the elation of performing as well as going through some profoundly positive personal changes. 

I broke away from toxic people, spent more time with my family, was surfing more than ever,  busking a heap in the top park of Byron and re-carving a path that felt right for me.

I want this song to be an anthem for hope, optimism, compassion and being true to yourself.
