Co-written/produced by Hannah V, gold-certified producer of JP Cooper & touring keyboardist for Rihanna & Jessie J. The vibe is sassy, soulful pop, pretty directly inspired by Janet Jackson’s “I Get Lonely”. But this song is about NOT chasing the guy: “I lost my taste for blood while it was still on my teeth” This is a feminine feminist anthem about how a true huntress embraces stillness to become more powerful and seductive: “I’m a new kind of animal with a new kind of grace.”

Step Out of the Shadow

Step Out Of The Shadow

VERSE 1
I know your favourite songs by heart 
I even know your favourite part 
You know how I got that scar on my knee 
You know me better than me

PRE-CHORUS 
Through thick and thin 
Through every trial and error 
I'll be right here 
You'll be my friend forever 

CHORUS 
Everything is better 
When we are together 
I love when you're around
Everything is better 
When we are together 
I'll never let you down 

VERSE 2
I know you can read my mind 
Even though I change it all the time 
I know when you're trying to keep your cool 
I know you better than you 

PRE-CHORUS 
We laugh till we cry 
And for your tears - you have my shoulder 
Even when you're down 
I love when you're around 

CHORUS 

BRIDGE
From our first loves
To our first borns
My love for you’s been sworn
When the days are dark 
I will be the spark 
To light your way 
Believe me when I say 

CHORUS

When We Are Together

PARADISE

VERSE 1
So many treasures to unpack 
‘Cause I’ve travelled the world and back 

There’s a fever to go see it all
When I’m done will I feel less small 

So much to prove, nothing to lose
Now I’m learning new shades of blue 

Posing for another shot
Keep it quiet it’s my favourite spot 



PRE-CHORUS
Let’s just hit the road
A new episode
Let’s just start all over again
Take a one way flight 
Can we leave tonight 
Can we start all over again 

CHORUS
Round the world
Chasing paradise
But wherever I go
I always follow


VERSE 2
So many seas, so many shores 
Will I find what I'm looking for 

Diving through blue oceans deep 
Will I find a new belief 

PRE-CHORUS

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Paradise is full of possibilities
A great escape 
A chance to be another me

CHORUS

Chasing Paradise

Like her musical heroes Prince and Nina Simon, American singer-songwriter Sirena Riley has always drawn from a broad range of influences. Jazz clubs were the place Sirena found her footing as a lead vocalist and she has played London's top jazz venues including the Vortex, Jazz Cafe, Ronnie Scott's, several London Jazz Festivals and many festivals throughout Europe. Her debut album, The Lunatic, The Lover and The Poet earned awards from the UK Songwriting Competition. Now Sirena is fusing that lyrical and jazzy melodic confidence into sophisticated, contemporary vibes by collaborating with producers who've worked with major pop and R&B acts including Beyonce, Jessie J and JP Cooper.
