Still Time

This Moment
Words, Music, Performance & Production by Ell Freeman 2022

I wake 
In this moment
I live
In this moment 
I see
Where I’m going 
I know 
I’ll be with you there again

I breath
In this moment 
I dream
In this moment
I see
All I need…

Chorus
Only the connection
I just feel 
The connection
I only feel 
The connection
To all that’s real

No pain
In this moment
No fear
In this moment
I see
Where I’m going
And I know 
I’ll be there with you again

No past
In this moment
No plan
In this moment
I see
All I need…

Chorus
Only the connection
I just feel 
The connection
I only feel 
The connection
To all that’s real

This Moment

I Hate When We Don't Talk

I Hate When We Don't Talk (Raw Demo)

Verse 1
«When you’re young 
Every road is open 
And you can’t tell 
The burning hell 
Of another ones closing»

Verse 2
«Before you know 
You’re headed down the last one
And it’s getting smaller too»
That's what you told me
As you stared out of the window

Chorus
Embrace the wide roads
Walk them while you can
Explore a new path
Cos one day you can't
We're all running out of track
And there's no turning back
Embrace the wide roads

Verse 3
«I don’t know what happens
When I reach the passing
Maybe, more’s awaiting
Over the horizon
But if it isn’t
I’m fine with that
I made the most of the time I had»

Chorus
Embrace the wide roads
Walk them while you can
Explore a new path
Cos one day you can't
We're all running out of track
And there's no turning back
Embrace the wide roads

Bridge
After a while, you spoke: 
Said «I hope you’ll look back with pride»
«That you didn’t sit back and let your fear decide»
«Cos, this life’s too short to pass you by»

Chorus
Embrace the wide roads
Walk them while you can
Explore a new path
Cos one day you can't
We're all running out of track
And there's no turning back
Embrace the wide roads
Walk them while you can
Explore a new path
Cos one day you can't
We're all running out of track
And there's no turning back
Embrace the wide roads

Embrace The Wide Roads

Embrace The Wide Roads (Raw Demo)

Verse 1
I’m looking sorry again
Worn down, beat
In need of a friend
But there are no redeeming words for me

Verse 2
I’m wandering off track again
Faded, lost
In search of a spark
But every road is marked
With the missteps of the past

Chorus
Never, never gonna be enough  
Never, never gonna be enough  
When every dream ends before it's begun
Never, never gonna be enough 

Verse 3
Here comes the morning again
I soak in the flame
And for a fleeting moment
I’m more than mistakes

Chorus
Never, never gonna be enough  
Never, never gonna be enough  
When every dream ends before it's begun
Never, never gonna be enough 

Bridge
If they soar, I just fall
When they shine, they expose my flaws

Chorus 
Never, never gonna be enough  
Never, never gonna be enough  
When every dream ends before it's begun
Never, never gonna be enough

FAWM 2025 - Song 1 - Never Enough (v1)

FAWM 2025 - song 2 - Seven (raw v1)

Verse 1
I picked the larva from the nettles
High-stemmed flowers in the breeze
Carried them in jars of glass
Watched them inch and shift

Verse 2
I cleared a space in my bedroom 
A cotton cradle and a lid
Closed it, while I was waiting
I would dream of wings

Chorus
And the wings will come the wings will come
Threaded bright with embered gold
And the wings will come the wings will come
The wonder only a child could know

Verse 3
The shoebox lay so silent
Hardened shells on gooey strings
Days would pass, they did not move
Until the husks gave in

Chorus
And the wings will come the wings will come
Threaded bright with embered gold
And the wings will come the wings will come
The wonder only a child could know

Outro
The sounds and smell are still the same
The nettles still sway by the stream
And it takes me back
The wings will come
The wings will come
The wonder only a child could know

FAWM 2025 - Song 3 - How To Raise Butterflies In A Shoebox (Without Your Parents Knowing) - Demo 1

Verse 1
Engines off, they rode the wind
Ghosts in the black of night
Patchwork planes on scrappy wings
But fear was on their side

Verse 2
They don’t need the speed of men
The weight of steel to kill
A rustle’s louder in the dark
The broomstick’s eerie sweep

Chorus
They never saw them coming
But they felt it in their bones
Like a breath before the thunder
A shadow creep when you’re alone
They called them weak, insignificant
Now hear their battle call:
We are the ones still flying
When your mighty towers fall

Verse 3
The wind cut straight into their bones
Frostbites on their hands
They flew with nothing but the stars
Til morning chased them home


Chorus
They never saw them coming
But they felt it in their bones
Like a breath before the thunder
A shadow creep when you’re alone
They called them weak, insignificant
Now hear their battle call:
We are the ones still flying
When your mighty towers fall

Bridge
No parachutes, no turning back
Only death beneath their feet
In the hour of need
They showed what it means
To truly never yield

Chorus
They never saw them coming
But they felt it in their bones
Like a breath before the thunder
A shadow creep when you’re alone
They called them weak, insignificant
Now hear their battle call:
We are the ones still flying
When your mighty towers fall

Outro
Patchwork planes on scrappy wings
But fear is on our side
