Red Light Day 02:55
lyrics

It's a red light, it's a red light day It's a red light day, it's a red light day Try to talk but I know too much Six or seven hours, too much Simple facts, I haven't been so wise Captured by those perfect Golden Eyes It's a red light, it's a red light day It's a red light day, it's a red light day Trying hard to reach you, so far Six or seven hours so far I know that you only need some time But I need to learn to calm my mind It's a red light, it's a red light day It's a red light day, it's a red light day

Locked Door 03:04

Just like a wanderer, feeling so small And I wonder where you found your courage at night I know I need to be someone, I will I know you run because you're scared of me I have kicked every bad habit I have spoken through the locked door I have lit the fire in this burned castle I will solve the puzzle that is haunting me With the truth, I can begin to grow again Learn together in the fire glow at night There are stars for every word I want to say I need to stop and catch my breath again I have kicked every bad habit I have spoken through the locked door I have lit the fire in this burned castle I will solve the puzzle that is haunting me I'll learn, in line This is the last time you'll cry Locked door, I'll break it down I have kicked every bad habit I have spoken through the locked door I have lit the fire in this burned castle I will solve the puzzle that is haunting me

Shine a Light 03:38
lyrics

Sinners and secrets, I'm closing my fist Pen onto paper, strike it off the list I try to show you I'm open and bare Painful emotion, I guess that it's fair Shine a light on me, always Burn away all my disease You're the one, you always have been Since the day my heart beat again Finding the light switch, my side is in a stitch Something is missing, don't know if you're listening Cold in the basement and rain on the pavement I knew much better, I'll write in a letter I believe we are for always Golden Eyes, you are everything My mistake, all of this heartbreak Breathe again, we win in the end Shine a light on me, always Burn away all my disease You're the one, you always have been Since the day my heart beat again Shine a light on me for always Burn away all my disease You're the one, you always have been Since the day my heart beat again And when the oceans rise I'll still be waiting by the sea I will not say goodbye It's not the end for you and me They say my heart will rise But it's your love that gives me wings

Golden Eyes 03:56
lyrics

I must have lost my way Hurt my best friend today So then she slipped away Might feel ok someday I'm so afraid of everything The day I died, I lost, denied Anxious to please, full of unease Glance back at me so you can see... Don't look the other way My love is here to stay Eventually ok Don't hide your heart away Fatal mistake, feeling heartbreak Looking inside her Golden Eyes What can I do if I've lost you? Come back inside, my love, abide Don't let it be this way for always Give it some time then come inside What can I do if I've lost you? Come back inside, my love, abide If I don't see you tomorrow or even the next day I will always still be thinking of the words I need to say If I don't see you tomorrow or talk in any way I will always still be thinking of you each and every day If I don't see you tomorrow or even the next day I will always still be thinking of the words I need to say If I don't see you tomorrow or talk in any way I will always still be thinking of you each and every day

Nothing Stays the Same 05:01

My love, it's true, nothing stays the same But me and you will figure out a way, a way But nothing stays the same A way, a way You start a fire, it started in your hair And now it's mine, burning all the air away But nothing stays the same Away, away I believe we are for always Golden Eyes, you are everything My mistake, all of this heartbreak Breathe again, we win in the end Don't let it be this way for always Give it some time then come inside What can I do if I've lost you? Come back inside, my love, abide My mistake, all of this heartbreak Breathe again, we win in the end

about

Endless thanks to my parents and my friends Timothy, James, Eric, and Kim for their feedback, support, and encouragement.

These five songs were written and recorded between January 2019 and May 2019 in my basement apartment on Capitol Hill, Seattle.

This project is dedicated to Golden Eyes. My love, it's true - nothing stays the same. We can’t change the past, but we can create the future.

Much love to everyone,
-MERIN
