About Time 04:26
You first wanted me to go, and so I went there, semi-stable. Crowded eyes, and fast below into the depths of your appraisal. Telling signs, to tell the tale, that came too tall to trail. Collapse into a pile, under a floorboard, cold and frail. Too late now to ask, the moment's passed. Took my time but I'm here now, I forget how. Suffering insomnia that I would dream away. If I could sleep forever, I could make it through the day. Take me up to heaven with you when you go away, I love you and I always will remember you this way. Too late now to ask, the moment's passed. Took my time but I'm here now, I forget how. Drifting into other worlds to find out who is here, No one thought to save the words and at last they disappeared. Travelling for hours under the starlight free from fear, I felt your hand above me, you were smiling ear to ear. Too late now to ask, the moment's passed. Took my time but I'm here now, I forget how.

about

About Time is a lilting journey through depression and retribution. Its main focus is the theme of suicide contemplation, and the struggle of the individual shutting themselves off from community. It’s about feeling unable to explain or express feelings and so hiding them away. It hides intense themes within a boppy, surreal, DIY pop-folk song.

Shantayika Hareya is an ode to the earth, a shamanic channeling of devotion to nature. Failures and imperfections abound and are allowed to float in and out of this piece. It acts as a drawn out limbo dream-space after the distorted radiographic exploration of About Time, a space of integration and decompression.



About Time is out on 10th September - World Suicide Prevention Day
