thought I knew what I was doing
holding my breath till you loved me
holding my breath till I’m something to you.
I don’t have a dream of excess
not the one you need to impress
I just wanna sit here talking to you.
and I think you should let me in your head
I’m good enough, I’ve been through hell and out again.
never wanna sow dissent here,
my best hours on earth are spent here:
when you knock off work come out and meet me.
breaking up dry leaves, I’m nervous
knowing too well you’re worth so much,
trying to reconcile the way you see me.
and I think you should let me in your head
we’re good now, we’ve been through hell and out again.
love is giving without taking
love is giving up
I’ll keep giving without taking
till I’m good enough.
This album throws you into another world. A world of dreamy imagery, deep feelings, interesting narratives, beautiful compositions and a sense of adventure. I've been following Happy Axe from the start and this album is her realization of all that has happened before. A breath taking collection of songs. I hope this album opens up audiences and opportunities far and wide across Australia and the world. Paul Summerfield
I believe the last track was released as a single, and I remember listening to it while I had a terrible flu. It blew me away into a fever dream... in a good way? It was quite a somatic experience. I adore this album and recall the show at Knockdown Center a few years ago fondly. AD
