about

La Serena is power pop drenched underneath wet, surfy, and delayed guitars, scaled-down walls of shoegaze, and a consistent 90s-esque chorus hook. The song pays homage to early 90s American and British Rock, while maintaining a present day timbre. Lyrically, it points to a cycle of self-reflection, escape, and pain rationalization. It's an oscillating continuum that leaves the listener wavering between cynicism and optimism.

lyrics

Run soon, away
Run soon, the only thing
And I know, if you choose not to decide
Well you still have made a choice
Cause I know this thing goes on and on and on and...

Forgot to run away (here i am)
For I’ve got to run away - way hey hey
Forgot to run away (here I am)
For I’ve got run away - way, hey hey

Look soon, away
Look soon, the veiled trail
Well I guess, a soft rain feels just right
And I can’t be wrong this time,
Cause I gotta reign it in before it gets a-way-ey hey

Forgot to run away (here i am)
For I’ve got to run away - way hey hey
Forgot to run away (here I am)
For I’ve got run away - way, hey hey

As I look out upon the day
A quiet crown atop the haze
The Northern Andes show their face
To the West, the endless ocean waves
Never felt a softer rain
Never gave myself the time of day

Forgot to run away (here i am) And I can’t be wrong this time
For I’ve got to run away Cause I know it’s on the line
Forgot to run away (here I am) And I can’t be wrong this time
For I’ve got run away Cause you’ve known it all the while
