Surf In The Storm

Where are you going

💔✅ Track Description

So you thought love was eternal?
LOL. This song is here to kindly — and musically — push you off that delusional cloud and into the nearest public fountain.

This jangle-pop-indie-rock-post-punk chimera tells the timeless tale of someone who desperately wants…
less. Much less.
Personal space? Essential.
Eye contact? No thank you.
Hand-holding? Not without gloves and maybe a restraining order.

We’re talking cloudy futures, exhausted dreams, and enough passive-aggressive emotional honesty to power an entire IKEA lighting department.

If you’ve ever wanted a song that says:

“It’s not me… it’s definitely you.”

…then congratulations, this is your new national anthem.

Best enjoyed while:

Deleting old couple selfies

Returning their hoodie and stealing their shampoo

Staring into the void and whispering “I don’t adore you”

Dancing alone like a confused flamingo at a Cure afterparty

Guitars sparkle, bass lines sigh, drums mutter “I told you so.”
It’s romantic rejection wrapped in a sweet jangly melody — like being slapped in the face with a bouquet of daisies that cost €3.49 at Lidl.

Turn it up.
And remember:
Everything will change my love for you.
(Especially if someone hotter shows up.)

Enjoy 🌹🚪➡️

Lyrics:

If I had to live my life with you beside me
My days would feel so crowded
The nights would drag along
With you, no future ever looks so cloudy
I might have liked someone before
But never felt this weak

Our dreams are tired and we both know
They’ll take us where we never hoped
Don’t hold me now, don’t touch me now
I’d rather live my life without you

Everything will change my love for you
You should’ve known by now I don’t adore you
One thing you can be sure of
I’ll always want much more than your love
Everything will change my love for you
You should’ve known by now I don’t adore you
The world may shift my whole life through
And everything will change my love for you

If the road ahead is far too simple
Your heart won’t lead the way for us
No guiding star
I won’t be there for you if you should need me
You’ll have to change it all
I don’t like you the way you are

Don’t come with me, don’t share the view
I won’t help you see forever too
Don’t hold me now, don’t touch me now
I’d rather live my life without you

Everything will change my love for you
You should’ve known by now I don’t adore you
One thing you can be sure of
I’ll always want much more than your love
Everything will change my love for you
You should’ve known by now I don’t adore you
The world may shift my whole life through
And everything will change my love for you

Everything will change my love for you
You should’ve known by now I don’t adore you
One thing you can be sure of
I’ll always want much more than your love

Everything will change my love for you
You should’ve known by now I don’t adore you
One thing you can be sure of
I’ll always want much more than your love
Everything will change my love for you
You should’ve known by now I don’t adore you
The world may shift my whole life through
And everything will change my love for you

Everything will change my love for you
You should’ve known by now I don’t adore you
One thing you can be sure of
I’ll always want much more than your love
Everything will change my love for you

Everything

Alice was a rose, looked perfect in the light
Sharp around the edges, drew blood most nights
Clara was a daisy, too easy to pick
Tried to chain me up but couldn’t make it stick

June was ivy, climbing where she pleased
Wrapped around my heart and refused to leave
Sophie was a cactus, don’t get too close
Pricked my fingers with nothing to show

Every time I plant a seed
It grows into a mess 
I’ve picked a lot of flowers
But none have passed the test
Must be a bad gardener 
Nothing seems to grow
Perhaps I need to find a flower
That isn’t just for show?

Hazel was lavender, soft and rare
Left her scent on every chair
Maya was a tulip, opened up too fast
Told me every secret but never asked

Fiona was a fern, lived best in shade
I gave her sun, she slipped away
Ruth was thistle, proud and coarse
Kicked like a mule, had no remorse

Every time I plant a seed
It grows into a mess 
I’ve picked a lot of flowers
But none have passed the test
Must be a bad gardener 
Nothing seems to grow
Perhaps I need to find a flower
That isn’t just for show?
