두 발을 구르며
볼 수 없는 그댈 마주해
언제나처럼 날
맞아주는 몇 센치의 떨림 

I wanna keep the bass down low
벌써 내 마음은 주말 mode
I don't see no open cars, no open bars
나쁘지 않아 온전히 혼자인 road
섬처럼 떠있는 사람들의 마음
어쩌면 오지 않을 듯한 밤
지평선을 걸어가 또 굴러가
우리가 정한 저 소실점으로 

슬프면 자전거를 타자
바람을 두 발 아래 두자
오 자전거를 타자
두 팔을 자유로이 벌리며 

나 나나나 나나나 
나나나나나
나나나 나나나 나나나 
나나나나나

가끔은 굴러가게 둬
자전거 바퀴처럼
찾을 게 있어
오후의 간식처럼
이 작은 순간을 위해 살아온 것 같아
두 바퀴 위에선 다 사사로운 한낮의 꿈
Feel the roof, smell the truth
멀지 않아 기적은
어떤 얼굴을 해도 지금은 괜찮아
진짜 소중한 건 눈에 보이지 않아
땅에서 발을 떼 
저 새를 닮은 태 
섬처럼 떠있기로 해
바람을 따라 춤춰
Yeah 울어도 돼
원래 행복하면 슬퍼

슬프면 자전거를 타자
바람을 두 발 아래 두자
오 자전거를 타자
두 팔을 자유로이 벌리며 

나 나나나 나나나 
나나나나나
나나나 나나나 나나나 
나나나나나
나나나 나나나
라라라라라
나나나 나나나
라라라라라

This piece was partially an experiment with writing atonal music for solo violin and partially a stream-of-consciousness response to a difficult time in my life. It is sometimes difficult for me to express sadness in music when I am not in an appropriately sad emotional state, but in this case, I forced myself to channel those emotions into music. What came out was a direct musical parallel to how a panic attack felt and sounded to me. The use of fermatas over rests throughout the piece results in a series of eerie silences that suggest a feeling of uncertainty. The screeching high notes represent screaming at the top of my lungs. The final part of the piece represents a reflection of the panic attack, which gives a sense of dreariness and defeat. The high energy fades off like a hangover until the very last note, suggesting the act of falling asleep.

This was written in April of 2017, and performed at the New Music at Maryland concert on November 27th, 2018. Performed by Phoebe Suzuki on violin.
