about

My story for this album: "I wish I could say that she is the other woman, but in fact I am. What you see on the EP cover is a real Instagram photo of the real girl taken by the real boy who inspired this collection of music. She isn't me; I will never be her. Obsession, possession, denial, heartbreak landed me in a position to write and express my way through a difficult situation. He chose her. The songs of "Is There Only One?" reflect my state of mind as I processed, questioned, and eventually found peace with such a visceral experience with rejection. This led me to think about the structure of relationships, attachment, and how the modern romance is diluted or enhanced by social media. Sometimes the things we do in the name of lust or love forsake reason and logic. We have the most hope despite our knowledge. I had the most hope."

lyrics

SERENITY

When you said you wanted me
I swore I would give anything
When you said you needed me
I thought I would give everything

But you, you
But you, you

You know that your love will never be enough
You know that your love will never be enough

You wanted my all, but I’m a loaded gun

I don’t need your anything
I’m better off when I am free
Please take back your everything
Your light weighs heavily on me

But, you know that your love will never be enough
You know that your love will never be enough

You wanted my all, but I’m a loaded gun
You wanted my all, but I’m a loaded gun
