This EP is about learning that some things can't just be pushed through. Written pre-COVID about my own chronic illness journey, but dedicated to anyone who struggles to get the rest they need.

Guitar in For Those Who Care is by Atlas "E.T" Etienne.

For Those Who Care

This is a goofy little song I wrote 3 days ago based on a list I wrote on HitRecord. I wanted to have a song with a really pretentious-sounding title but then make it meaningful, hence the second name. This is a very rough demo but it captures the thought and having a hard copy helps me practice. 

I'd really love to hear your thoughts in the comments! What does this song mean to you?

Lyrics:
Sleep now
Close your eyes
Welcome to security
Does it feel nice?
Wake up
Don't you cry
Wipe your tears away
And come inside
Isn't it so fun to see
A little bit of hope and time to breathe
So stay a while, take your time
Heal your wings before you have to fly

Welcome to Phase 15
For everyone still in between
Room for all, don't be shy
We don't need to ask why

Sleep now
Take a rest
So you have the energy for your best
Wake up
Welcome home
You should know
You don't need to be alone
Have you found yourself?
Sometimes you'll need a little help
Here's a helping hand
Do you need a hug or glue or a plan?

Demos

Welcome To Phase 15 (Warmth)[Kitchen Table Demo]

This is a COVER of The Village by Wrabel. Just love the song.

The Village Cover (COVER, cannot stress that enough)

When I said "Looking for my time to kill", lemme clarify I meant I kill time talking to my partner, not that I want to kill my partner. Please do not think I'm advocating murder I can't kill carpenter ants without crying bc they're just so big and alive.

I wrote this song in the course of 5 minutes immediately after recording the cover for the village because "You're the song in my heart" popped up and I didn't know where to start. 

-------------------LYRICS-------------------------------------------------------
You're the song in my heart and I don't know where to start
I don't know where to start, no I don't know where to start

Send a letter say hello
Know me better, no you don't
But let's give it half a try
Gotta fall so we can fly

Looking for my time to kill
We haven't met; God, I hope we will
Since you haven't said goodbye
Gotta fall so I can fly

Oh god Oh Shit I'm falling fast
How can I make this last

You're the song in my heart and I don't know where to start
I don't know where to start oh shit.

This was recorded a month ago, never uploaded, the original song is called Anarchy Of Angels and my cowriter for the song no longer talks to me. No one in that band does. So. Reclaiming it, I helped write the lyrics so I should get to sing it sometimes.

Anyways here's this, and there's the name change. I didn't post this because I once had a dream a cowritten song with that cowriter went viral and we had to write another song together to get a record deal and the cowriter kept sabotaging me but oh well, here it is fam.

Needs work. This cover was thought up yesterday so the vocals need work.
