We recommend listening with headphones, since we recorded the track with two separate, rather crappy microphones, so the quality is not on point.

Lyrics: 

Trapped

intro

Something in your gaze, I can’t quite seem to grasp
You seem to hypnotize, I’m trapped and feel aghast 
I walk a path I don’t really understand

Chorus

Sway me, betray me
Sing me a lullaby 
You claim me, try to change me
I really don’t know why
I really don't know why but I
Forgive you one more time and I 

Pre-chorus

There was a time that the sky was painted
With bright and lively hues 

But now all that’s left are
Hints of grey and blue 

I hide in dreams and make-believe 
and close my eyes for the truth 

Chorus

Bruise me
Accuse me
How did we go this way
Control me
Then attone me
I really don’t want to stay
I don’t want to stay but say
There’s always one more day and pray

Bridge

Chorus

Astray me
Then blame me
Forever to be played
I despise you
But give you no clue
It’s easier to be swayed 
It’s easier to be swayed 
And stay
Though my life is so gray
So gray 

Please release me x2

A yearning runs down my spine
As I chase the fireflies
Dressed into their cloaks
They go up into smoke

We are two friends that met through the internet. Jacques lives in South Africa, Sarah in Belgium.

We have to work with what we have, since we live that far apart.

We hope you enjoy our musical experiments!
