Youth

Still Standing Here
by The Miracle Syndicate 

You called me out
At a quiet hour
Said nothing’s changed
But everything sounds different now

You say you’re fine
I say the same
We trade the weather
Like it means something else

You talk in futures
I stay in today
You keep your distance
Like it’s part of the deal

You lean in close
Then pull away
Like you’re testing
What you already know

I’m not your answer
I’m not your past
I’m just the place
Where you slow down

I’m not your promise
I’m just the one
Still standing here
Still standing here

You mention names
I don’t ask who
I learn to breathe
Through the gaps in you

You say you need space
I say “I get it”
Like understanding
Means I disappear

You look at me
Like I’m a mirror
Then turn away
Before it talks back

I’m not your answer
I’m not your past
I’m just the place
Where you slow down

I’m not your promise
I’m not your plan
I’m just the one
Still standing here

Still standing here

Maybe it’s timing
Maybe it’s fear
Maybe we meet
When the noise has cleared

You say “never”
Then you say “maybe”
Like the truth
Needs room to breathe
It’s something I feel

From you

I don’t ask for more
I don’t ask for less
I just stay steady
In the middle of this

I’m not your answer
I’m not your past
I’m just the place
Where you feel safe

I’m not your answer
I’m not your past
I’m just the place
Where you slow down

I’m not your promise
I’m not your plan
I’m just the one
Who doesn’t run

I think you'll get it
Or you won’t
I’ll still be here
Either way

Still standing here
Still standing here

Emperor Tho

"Right Direction," Davis's forthcoming new single, took shape during his first ever writing session with Kimbra Johnson (aka Kimbra). Prior to the session, she'd described a friend who was having trouble finding a life-long passion. Since she and Davis have music to invest their time and hard work into, the duo decided to write the song from the point of view of this friend, that is, a person who desires to work hard but doesn't have an outlet for all of that pent up energy. "I think we have all felt that way from time to time," says Davis.

Davis was also into running marathons at this time, so that image and mood found its way into the song. Opening with a crispy drum beat, acoustic guitar, plunky vibraphone and Davis' smoky vocals, the chorus gives way to bassy piano chords and soaring harmonies that ask, "How long will I run without knowing if I'm running in the right direction?"

An alternative version of "Right Direction" will also appear on Kimbra's forthcoming new album 'Primal Heart', out April 20. Benjamin Lazar Davis's debut solo album 'Nothing Matters' will be released on May 4 via 11A Records.
