Lyrics: 
I’m higher than I’ve ever been
And I’m never coming down again
Still growing out of my old skin
But I’m never ever going back in

Everything I thought that I knew
Is rolling over like a stone
Uncovering the hidden view
That I’ve never seen or been shown

So now I look up

I’m higher than I’ve ever been
And I’m never coming down again
Still growing out of my old skin
But I’m never ever going back in

Climbing up above the trees
To see the stone walls and the range
Then I’m looking back at me
To recognize how my eyes change

So now I stand up
Now I stand up

I’m higher than I’ve ever been
And I’m never coming down again
Still growing out of my old skin
But I’m never ever going back in

I’m higher than I’ve ever been
And I’m never coming down again
Still growing out of my old skin
But I’m never ever going back in

I’m never going back 
I’m never going back

Lyrics: 
There’s something I gotta say
I’m searching for it in my chest
My head keeps getting in the way
Let’s say what we mean and leave the rest

You don’t have to lie
Look me straight in the eye

Is this goodbye
Is it just another night
You don’t have to lie
Will you stay till daylight
Stay till daylight

If this really is the end
What would you have me do
In these moments on the bed
Tell me something true

I won’t tell a lie
I love you with all my life

This is goodbye
It isn’t just another night
No time left to lie
I love you with all my life
I can’t stay till daylight
I can’t stay till daylight

Lyrics: 
Time moves faster than light 
We’ve just arrived 
And I’m hoping we’ll stay awhile
Please don’t go
Don’t go from me

Thoughts I forget
Are films you can remember
And I need your archive mind
Please don’t go
Don’t go from me

Why can’t you speak
Of the dreams that haunt your sleep
Ask for what you mean to seek
We must go
We all will leave

When you’re gone
I’ll visit you in the ground 
Sing songs just like when you were here
Please don’t go
Don’t go from me
Please don’t go
Don’t go from me
Please don’t go

Don't Go

Get it: https://erikakulnys.bandcamp.com/track/black-swan

This is a song about overcoming domestic abuse. It will appear on Stand Together to be released May 2025.

Black swan on the river
The days are getting longer
Do you think you can forgive her?
Will your heart beat stronger?

They say don't throw bread to the birds
It pollutes the water
Bread, like her words
My heart the river

Reckoning with the swan
Reckoning with the gods
Reckoning with this pretty yellow gorse
It'll cut you to your core

Black swan on the River
Black feathers in her hair
Did you sleep in peace beside her?
Did you even care?

You took my child in your wing
You took my daughter
You took my love with your fist
I couldn't see the water

Reckoning with the swan
Reckoning with the gods
Reckoning with this pretty yellow gorse
It'll cut you to your core

The sun will rise
The sun will rise
The sun will rise

Black swan on the river

Lyrics: 
Party girls don't get hurt
Can't feel anythin', when will I learn?
I push it down, I push it down
I'm the one for a good time call
Phone's blowin' up, ringin' my doorbell
I feel the love, I feel the love

One, two, three, one, two, three, drink
One, two, three, one, two, three, drink
One, two, three, one, two, three, drink
Throw 'em back 'til I lose count

I'm gonna swing from the chandelier
From the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
Like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night
Feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier
From the chandelier

But I'm holdin' on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until mornin' light
'Cause I'm just holdin' on for tonight
Help me, I'm holdin' on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until mornin' light
'Cause I'm just holdin' on for tonight, on for tonight

Sun is up, I'm a mess
Gotta get out now, gotta run from this
Here comes the shame, here comes the shame

One, two, three, one, two, three, drink
One, two, three, one, two, three, drink
One, two, three, one, two, three, drink
Throw 'em back 'til I lose count

I'm gonna swing from the chandelier
From the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
Like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night
Feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier
From the chandelier

But I'm holdin' on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until mornin' light
'Cause I'm just holdin' on for tonight
Help me, I'm holdin' on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until mornin' light
'Cause I'm just holdin' on for tonight, on for tonight

On for tonight
'Cause I'm just holdin' on for tonight
Oh, I'm just holdin' on for tonight
'Cause I'm just holdin' on for tonight
Oh, I'm just holdin' on for tonight
I'm just holdin' on for tonight

challenge honored, here's it

Pink Moon - Nick Drake (QUICK TAKE acoustic cover)

rare rare find

“Strawberry Moon” is a mellow, dreamy song about those moments that make you lose track of time—unexpected love, feeling alive, and just getting lost in the magic. It’s got that acoustic, folk vibe with a mix of warmth and reflection.

If you’re into chill singer-songwriter stuff like Bon Iver or Sufjan Stevens, you’ll probably vibe with this. Thanks for listening, and feel free to share your thoughts!

Follow Primal Panic! for more music and updates!

Strawberry Moon

Quietly My Dear

"Footsteps" is a haunting, mid-tempo track that captures the urgency, sorrow, and resilience of those forced to flee. With stark lyrics and a steady, solemn rhythm, it tells a story of displacement, survival, and identity. "Stepping stones turn to gravestones" echoes the tragedy of lost lives, while "We call out our own names so we know that we exist" highlights the struggle to remain seen. 

Footsteps

A slow, atmospheric piano and vocal piece, Alcatraz drifts through themes of light and darkness, water and silence. Ethereal and introspective, the song evokes the vastness of the ocean and the fleeting nature of existence. With a haunting yet gentle melody, Alcatraz invites you into a world of reflection and mystery

THREE HOURS

Live May 17th 2025. Love ya Nick Drake. Shoutout Mark Ridout. Was tired by this point, but this is my favourite Nick Drake song.

Things Behind the Sun (Live Cover)

No such thing as too much Nick Drake. Recorded live. Voice was spent by this point, ND shouldn’t be sung the way I sung here.

Which Will (Live Cover)

This is my first release under my new project!

Welcome to Good Shadows, a mysterious sonic world of enigmatic soundscapes and disparate melodies pulled deep from the dark musical abyss.

Testing out some things— demos, live recordings etc. Everything here is, to a fair extent, mastered and mixed terribly. 

‘Foxglove’ consists of one songwriter/guitarist/vocalist, and a bassist. Evidently, they don’t normally record stuff.

Irish singer-songwriter crafting intimate, stripped-down acoustic songs with poetic lyrics and heartfelt melodies. Now based in Barcelona, I blend folk, indie, and subtle jazz influences, inviting listeners into raw, emotional storytelling—just voice, guitar or piano, and pure feeling.

PRIMAL PANIC! is the audio odyssey of writer & filmmaker Justin Giddings. After experiencing a devastating divorce, Justin found catharsis in using music to plumb the depths of his heartache and rage. 

Exploring themes of love, loss, shame, betrayal, grief, and (ultimately) hope, PRIMAL PANIC! distractedly wanders through the genres of indie folk, alt rock, and under-produced dream pop.

INFLUENCES: Bon Iver, Ben Folds, Smashing Pumpkins, Blind Pilot, Coldplay, The Eagles, Sufjan Stevens, Nick Drake, Spacey Jane, Jars of Clay, The Cranberries, Lizzy McAlpine, Noah Kahan, Sparrowghost
