Post Malone - Stay (Adam Melchor Cover)

My latest EP is all about where I live and the local community. I moved to Ferndale with my family at the age of eight into an old post office in the town. 
It was once a sorting office for the town’s post and telegrams during WWII and a bank holding the miners’ wages. This became my inspiration for my new EP, “Post”. 
Centred around my home, “The Old Post Office”, I have invited members of my community to share with me moments, memories and feelings from their lives. 
Having once been the main source of communication for my town, I have re-opened the post office which has allowed me to connect on a deeper level to the people of my town and I hope to be able to share that with others.

This song is written about the local champion boxer "Taff Williams" who is my next door neighbors father. She sent in his obituary notice which had all of his achievements as an athlete and a boxer and that one piece of paper inspired the song.

I'll remember you always
Precious things not yet forgotten 
Like my first second skin
With my first jump into water 
In that wild, blue embrace
And the dark bite of November, I remember,
As the wind whispered of fate

I’ll remember you always
Among the first of the surprises
In the summer of my spring
As a whistling adventure
As a song of foolish joy
And the rising bounce of green grass, as time passed,
As it lifted birthday boy

How could you disappear?

I'll remember you always
Until the end of the last ember
Till no one knows my name 
As we crept into your bedroom
Let our fingers trace your sheets
With an air of still about you, that devout hue
As you drifted into peace 

I'll remember you always
As one of few things best forgotten
Through a faded film of shame 
In the eyes-locked lust of first love
With the thrill of what we’d found
As we clutched our sacred secret, swore to keep it
Swore to never make a sound

How could you disappear?

Every fateful celebration
Every painful souvenir
Every look of wide-eyed wonder
Every all-consuming fear

How could you disappear?

How Could You Disappear?

Am I hearing things 
Or is there someone calling out 
From underneath the river bed?
Is the wind taking wing?
Is there a foghorn blowing 
From a sinking ship?
Is that the sun setting?
Why do i keep forgetting?
Am I just too tired?
Am I losing track?
Am I uninspired?
Am I just stepping back?
Am I on the right path?
Or is the map getting wet?
Why are there pictures at my bedside
Of people that i’ve never met?
Am I hearing things 
Or is there someone calling out 
From underneath the river bed?
