Heroes

"Syncopated Shadows" invites listeners into the dark world of the artist's inner psyche, where darkness reigns supreme and inner demons hold sway. Set against a backdrop of hypnotic rhythms and melancholic melodies, the lyrics offer a deep and introspective exploration of fear, turmoil, and the search for meaning in a world shrouded in shadows.

Each verse delves deeper into the artist's inner struggles, painting vivid portraits of despair, shattered dreams, and the relentless pursuit of escape. The chorus emerges as a haunting mantra, proclaiming immersion in the syncopated rhythms of the night and an embrace of the surrounding darkness.

"Syncopated Shadows" is a poignant meditation on the complexities of the human experience, where pain and beauty coexist in delicate balance. With its evocative lyrics and atmospheric arrangement, this track promises to resonate deeply with listeners who find solace in the shadows and strength in the depths of their own souls.

LAUV - The Other


cigarette ash like wildfire
burning holes in the nighttime
open scars cut like barbed wire
white lies flying high like a ceasefire
dropping flags on the shoreline
this is as far as i can feel right
cos what you dont know
can haunt you

and all we ever wanted
was sunlight and honesty
highlights to want to repeat
lets get away from here and
live like the movies do
i wont mind when its over
at least i didnt think for a while

so lets run
make a great escape
and ill be waiting outside for the getaway
it doesnt matter who we are
well keep running through the dark
and all well ever need is another day
we can slow down cos tomorrow is a mile away
and live like shooting stars
cos happy endings hardest to fake

sunsets on power lines
making a break for the otherside
heading out to where that sunshine
45 millimeter rolling like we lost time
polaroids and outcast
rather burnout young than grow up fast
and we could be forever futurebound
cos all i need is time and now and i could leave this past behind me
and maybe ill see a way for me to stay
when theres so much out there
so ill live forgetting for the time being
[and all we ever wanted]
[was sunlight and honesty]
[highlights to want to repeat]
[lets get away from here and]
[live like the movies do]
and i wont mind when its over
at least i didnt think for a while
so lets run
make a great escapeand ill be waiting outside for the getaway
it doesnt matter who we are
well keep running through the dark
and all well ever need is another day
we can slow down cos tomorrow is a mile away
and live like shooting stars
cos everything was never the same

and i want to let you know
i want to let you go
but i just cant bring myself to speak
but this is how it goes
the end credits the roll
this bridge was built over kerosine
but we can watch it
[burn down]
[we can watch it burn down]

and all i ever wanted
was sunlight and honesty
highlights to want to repeat
lets get away from here and
live like the movies do
i wont mind when its over
at least i didnt think

so lets run
make a great escape
and ill be waiting outside for the getaway
it doesnt matter who we are
well keep running through the dark
and all well ever need is another day
we can slow down cos tomorrow is a mile away
and live like shooting stars
cos you can wish away forever but youll never find a thing like today﻿

My album is a story of triumph, of letting go of all the uncertainty in my head and learning to walk the path of my own heart. “Sincerely” is about realizing how much better this world would be if we all loved ourselves, if we weren’t afraid of being vulnerable and honest. It doesn’t matter who’s president or what technology we invent or what extremists we destroy, the only thing I know is this:

There will never be peace if we do not all love ourselves.

I kept asking myself, why them and not me?

Crossfire

He'd trade his guns for love,
But he’s caught in the crossfire,
And he keeps wakin up,
But its not to the sound of birds,
The tyranny, the violent streets,
Deprived of all that we’re blessed with,
And we can’t get enough

Heaven if you sent us down,
So we could build a playground,
For the sinners, to play as saints,
You’d be so proud of what we made
I hope you got some beds around,
Cuz you’re the only refuge now,
For every mother, every child, every brother,
That’s caught in the Crossfire

I’d trade my luck to know,
Why he's caught in the crossfire,
And I’m here wakin' up,
To the sun and the sound of birds,
Society’s anxiety,
Deprives of all that we’re blessed with,
We just cant get enough

Heaven if you sent us down,
So we could build a playground,
For the sinners, to play as saints,
You’d be so proud of what we made
I hope you got some beds around,
Cuz you’re the only refuge now,
For every mother, every child, every brother,
Who’s caught in the Crossfire

Can I trust what I’m given?
When faith still needs a gun,
Whose ammunition,
Justifies the wrong?
And I can’t see, from the backseat,
So I’m asking from above,
Can I trust what I’m given,
Even when it cuts?

So Heaven if you sent us down,
So we could build a playground,
For the sinners, to play as saints,
You’d be so proud of what we made
I hope you got some beds around,
Cuz you’re the only refuge now,
For every mother, every child, every brother

Who’s caught in the crossfire,
Who’s caught in the crossfire,
Who’s caught in the crossfire,
Who’s caught on the cross...
