Better To Fall (CalArts Creative Rep F2021)

// just like a balloon, letting go was the only way to fly //

Over The Moon is a song about knowing of a love that has been there since the beginning of time, the type that showed you strength and held you grounded in the moments you needed in order to grow. The music is a mix of melancholy and hopefulness, expressing the tension and fear of leaping into the great unknown. It feels like you're losing grip of a memory that was once held so tightly, and floating into a world of new possibilities.

//acting on a fantasy, for how long can we escape reality?//

amidst exploring new frontiers with alternative pop, goodbye is a song about running towards something you cannot control. it's the flame sparked in a haste, the explosion you couldn't contain, shattering the walls you carefully built and consuming you in all your being. even if fleeting and temporary, burning twice as bright and half as long, perhaps these choices reminded you of why you were alive. can we still move through the experience, consciously looking back at the ashes with love and grace?

//till i see you next time//

📝 Lyrics:
If it’s too early 
I run a little bit late
Ooh I’m always delayed
If it’s too late 
I let the hours go by
While you sleep at night

If it’s too clinical
It’ll make me cynical
Of sensibility
If it’s too quiet then
You are on my mind
While you sleep at night

Lighten up
These clockwork reasons
Like every circle
Like every 

Lighten up
These clockwork reasons

Add another number
Calendar writer
Ooh it’s ever enough
And if I have to leave
I’ll do it quietly
It’ll tear me apart

Like every circle
Lighten up
These clockwork reasons
Like every circle

Lighten up
These clockwork reasons
Don’t ever 
Lighten up
Like every circle

If it’s too late 
I let the hours go by
While you sleep at night

Breathing

Paper Citizen
