I saw you standing alone I felt so bad not talking to you And I fell in love With the girl right there, just staring at me Tell me, tell me if you like me Tell you, tell you that’d I’d love you I can’t control myself It’s tearing me apart I can’t stand it anymore I just wanna say I flipped out, got scared My heart was pumping, my vocals were churning And I thought it was real But it was just a dream that never occurred Tell me, tell me if you like me Tell you, tell you that’d I’d love you I can’t control myself It’s tearing me apart I can’t stand it anymore I just wanna say That I love you

I thought that I saw you But it was just a girl with the same hairstyle And I had insomnia At the thought of your beauty which I’ll never have I searched through crowds till I found you It was real hard But in the end it was right I thought of you till I slept through A dream where you were Oh woah, mine And I searched all round the web For a picture of you just to see the night through And my heart was in shambles I wanna be yours but I’m too scared to speak I searched through crowds till I found you It was real hard But in the end it was right I thought of you till I slept through A dream where you were Oh woah, mine I was just paranoid It was a convulsion of blood, sweat and tears You’re an angel from the sky I tried to talk to you but you just didn’t reply I searched through crowds till I found you It was real hard But in the end it was right I thought of you till I slept through A dream where you were Oh woah, mine

It didn’t seem too long ago I looked in your eyes and whispered to you I couldn’t seem to tell you the truth I tried my best but I choked on my words It didn’t seem too long ago I didn’t see you crying I didn’t let my feelings go Now I’m sitting all alone Now I rest my weary soul I look around and realize that you’re gone It was just a moment and I’d be with you It was just a moment and I fucked it up It didn’t seem too long ago I didn’t see you crying I didn’t let my feelings go Now I’m sitting all alone It didn’t seem too long ago I didn’t see you crying I didn’t let my feelings go Now I’m sitting all alone

about

Picking up where Rank & File left off:

As time went on I realised that this string of songs couldn't fit anywhere without bloating an album so instead, I decided to release it on its own because they are meant to go together to tell a mini-story of sorts. In the mind of my younger self, the whole concept was to represent the lifecycle of a flame from the start with a simple orange flame, to an intense, condensed blue flame to the inevitable extinguishing process.

I wrote these songs quite close to each other back in 2014-2015 about a girl (duh) and they're meant to express the development of a crush, from the huge infatuation at the start to a bunch of regrets which drown amidst the emptiness of chasing after daydreams. And to respect my younger self's intentions, I also chose not to drastically change any of the lyrics from back then.

A lot of times, our relationships never really end up becoming more than a thought that lasted a little longer than we wanted. We replay these scenarios in our head, thinking of all the 'what-ifs' rather than figuring out how to get those things because it's so much easier to delude ourselves with tales of grandeur and romance as opposed to being rejected in real life.

I'm planning to fit a somewhat different rendition of the track, 'CO2,' on the next album which is in the works so keep an eye out for that.
