about

Underneath the reverb-soaked guitars and vibrating countermelodies, lies a tale of a woman that is putting the past in her review and taking her first steps to getting back on her feet.

lyrics

Last Night she closed on the am
These words will make her find a way
Out loud, she please for a Holiday
But this girl, never knows what to say

Arrives home to her apartment
She resides a recluse of the day
To make rent, she persuades for a night,
She awakes, relieved but battered again
Scratch a ticket with a hopeful wish in mind
Back in - Heels on, she’s never looking back
Barraged from zealots of the cross
Ignored when these two worlds collide

But it’s all right
If it’s something that you had
Well, it’s too hard now
But it’s all right
If it’s something that you had
I know, I know

Commit when nothing is in her way
Feet down, she’ll make it through the months
Smokes are inherent to her life
The role model, she always condescends
She hears of better days from her friends
The life she wishes to obtain
A new job, a new house in the hills
In this life, she’s never giving up

But it’s all right
If it’s something that you had
Well, it’s too hard now
But it’s all right
If it’s something that you had
I know, I know

What it takes to make her feel this
I think that she can hear this
I think that she can feel this
But it’s all right
If it’s something that you had
Well, it’s too hard now
But it’s all right
If it’s something that you had
I know, I know
I know, I know
I know, I know
I know, I know
