Own Speed

mama
i'm a fool for all ive done
left her body 
at the dawning
of the cairn and carried on

and papa
know that we can't tarry long
show no folly 
in the stalling
of the ferryman, charon

and oh--

I know not what I'm for 
but my face by the fireside warms
alone in what I've known
but my faith in the firelight grows
and a face by the fireside shows


mama
ill find my arbiter alone
in waters seething, 
timber teeming,
not the leaves of ancient tomes 


and papa
ill write my likeness in the stones
but never cheating 
something fleeting
as every one of them erodes

and oh--

I know not what I'm for 
but my face by the fireside warms
alone in what I've known
but my faith in the firelight grows
as i gaze on the mother of crows

Lovehearts is a cinematic coming-of-age album set on a park bench by the Thames in the year 2000, where one rare Love Heart sweet accidentally predicts the end of a first love. Each track imagines a different future branching from that single moment — the versions where they stay, leave, try, fail, grow up, or grow apart.

Told through alternating voices, soft folk, glitchy pop, and warm London ambience, this album is about timing, almosts, and the small choices that shape an entire life. A nostalgic, modern multiverse of love, loss, and the sweetness of letting go.

"Porcelain"

Written by Katie Hackett
Featuring Hayden Arp
Produced and Mastered by Zachary McCaw
Drums - Kevin Walker



My brain is porcelain.
I'm a contortionist
I want to breathe you in
As your light breathes

Like wine and lilac
Betrothed inside your veins.
Your bones are verdant and fair
I would die without you.

My brain is porcelain.
I'm a contortionist

A fiend of circumstance,
I break at zeal's first glance.
My vice is my own mind
I would die without you.

You dress my loveless spine
and braid my muzzled hair
You rip my heart in two
I would die without you
I would die without you.

My brain is porcelain
My brain is porcelain.

Porcelain

Our first song, let us know what you think!

LYRICS:

I see your outline in the dark
I can hear the blood run in your heart 
when we’re in each other’s arms

The stillness of the night is here 
with all the riot of our fear
trying to re-open our scars

But nothing in this life is real
and time alone won’t help to heal 
getting to the hardest part

Time is running out  for us 
All our dreams turn to dust
Never dreamed it be so hard
 
And it’s tearing me apart must be something that I can do
I’m through with chasing stars and howling at the moon
I’m done with being young and waiting for life to start
You’re not the only one who’s got a fragile heart

Now I see the lights go down   
and all the faces in the crowd 
disappear into the dark

And all the songs that we once sung 
sound so much better in the sun 
what better place to make a start

‘Cos happy ends are just a ruse 
you try to win that’s when you lose 
it’s peace we need to feel sane

And time is ticking on my dear 
there’s nothing left for us to fear 
there’s no one left to play the game

And it’s tearing me apart must be something that I can do
I’m through with chasing stars and howling at the moon
I’m done with being young and waiting for life to start
You’re not the only one who’s got a fragile heart

Fragile Heart

Lyrics:

Look at the desperate man
Clutching with broken hands
Wondering how it ends
Stumbling back and forth
Looking to start a war
I’m lucky he was a friend
Wait
Take me apart and I’ll flow like water slowly fade
I’m disappearing again
He would’ve risked it all
He wanted to heed the call
This was the last attempt
But as he turns to go
A broken voice cuts through the cold
"this ain’t how it ends"
Wait
Take me apart and I’ll flow like water slowly fade
I’m disappearing again
Time and space, there’s never enough and i don’t mind waiting for
The day
Everyone here will go mad
I was the foolish man
Living to fight again
But dying to find the end

Take Me Apart

Good Days
