The Getaway (Pretty Girls Make Graves cover)

Changes can be hard sometimes but after they happen you may feel more like yourself than before. Maybe even discover a new part of yourself you had no idea existed somewhere deep down. Dive into this new place, conquer your enemies, tame all the evil forces and make it your home. 
Long live the travellers

First and last song of 2024.

I took a loooooong break from making music but I'm pretty happy with this track and I am DETERMINED to get back into the process going into 2025.

I also want to hopefully learn to play the piano properly so there's another thing to look forward to :)

PS: I also used some other noises / bits of the soundtrack in the production but you can keep an ear out for those yourself ;)

The fifth song on Unangazord's debut album "I Think I'll Miss This Lake"

Lyrics:
Take me back
Tuck me in
I can’t feel the same again
My friend oh my
Why lonely one

Don’t change
I’ll feel the same again,
I’ll feel the same again

Fill the void,
Feel complete
But I can’t, I can’t breathe
Or feel complete, I fray
To find
Everything, where it was,
For I’m running out of time
But I try

Don’t change.

I think I’m starting
To figure out who you’re haunting
Get yourself a fair taunting
Make yourself your bed
And I know it’s hazy
Like misty mornings with Daisy
Waking up in the morning
Never let yourself rest

Never let yourself rest,
Never let yourself rest.

I think I’m starting
To figure out who you’re haunting
Get yourself a fair taunting
Make yourself your bed
And I know it’s hazy
Like misty mornings with Daisy
Waking up in the morning
Never let yourself rest.

It falls apart again
So long, and farewell
Passing by

You wanted
You wanted this so bad

'stalgia vibes

When I close.
I don't feel.
I can't step out of hear
For nothings
You say, "I love your calm wording."
I can see in the dark
If I look hard enough.
信じないと蹴った
なにかのせいにしている

But I changed.
What is outside.
Cut it out like a film.
今更もう遅いの


Stay.
Yuno's callin.
Everything is changing so fast.
I don't wanna know.
Stay.
Yuno's bad dream.
Everything is changing so fast.
Just close your eyes.
　

【和訳】
それは一人のときの話で
俺は感じられていなかった
出かける理由がない
穏やかな言葉が好きと言ってくれた
暗闇の中でも目を凝らせば見えるみたい
信じないと蹴った
なにかのせいにしている


まあそれも変わったよ
外ってなんなんだ
フィルムを切り取っているだけか
今更もう遅いの

そのままでいて
ユノが呼んでる
全部すごい速さで変わっていく
知りたくもないことばかりだ

そのままでいて
ユノの悪夢だから
全部すごい速さで変わっていく
見えなきゃないのと同じだ
