Released on 9 May 2018. Primal is my first electronic album. I tried to capture a particular flavor of both sadness and exuberance texturally and lyrically. The album is titled ‘Primal’ because the songs within the album embody a vibe of intense instinctual expression—the confrontation between the self and life, love and emotion.
PUSH EM
Got the love and the shakes
Got me feeling this way, you never knew me
Yeah you don’t know me
Gotta change
All my lovers in my head-they just want me to feel like I’m dead
I know this
I’m not gonna tell you
You just gotta stay true
They say honesty’s the best policy and I agree
My love and my heart on a t-shirt
Everybody wants to be heard
I just wanna dance
All the love in the world won’t save me
All the time in the world won’t behave me
I hold to no one and no one holds to me
You don’t wanna know what goes in my brain and out my eyes
You don’t wanna see what’s inside
It’s dark it’s light, it’s feeling alright
You asked me a question
I told you a reason
Push ’em back, push ’em back
Got a lot on my plate and it’s a state of mind that you got to maintain
And I know that you know that we both know
That it’s all gonna fall apart someday
Anyway
All the love in the world won’t save me
All the time in the world won’t behave me
I hold to no one and no one holds to me
Bliss is failure to see past tomorrow
Life it isn’t a gift, but to borrow
If you ain’t no robber
Don’t even bother
GROW without you
What to say
To go or stay
I’ll fall in line, tell ’em that I’m fine
But I’m still the same girl
I tried to find a different kind
Like a dove they say
I will fly away—
But I’m lost
Yet I’m still right here
When the lights go out
I walk around but my feet are slow
And I don’t really know how I actually feel
I’ll take my chance
To walk far and dance
But taking it down ’cause I don’t wanna know about you
It’s the root at the start and I found I could grow without you
I wrote it out, words out my mouth
But the moon is gone and I can feel the sun
It burns
And my chest hurts
If I’m still alone until I’m old
I know I fled from what they said was true
Has it all gone wrong?
There comes a time
Lemme take you back to a memory
Let’s lose ourselves in a melody
Have you lost yourself in the melody?
I love the way we’re moving
so softly and so smoothly
How am I here with you again?
I like the way the window talks and all I wanna do is run
oh, how I wanted you to stay
Oh, there comes a time
When you lose yourself in the melody
Oh, there comes a time
when you feel your soul seek a remedy
Oh, there comes a time
When you find yourself in a memory
Oh the time has come
when you cannot help but remember me
If we ran around in places that only hearts could touch
Oh, would it be your teeth to bite?
So I crossed my heart and hoped to die just to hear your secrets
Oh, but all you told were lies
a game
Let’s play a game
Let’s pretend that you’re on fire
I was inspired
Oh how inspired
I was inspired
I’ve caught myself on fire
