    "Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards" - Søren Kierkegaard

    I released my debut album "Disarm" in September 2010. I'd been collecting the songs together for a few years, gradually focusing my mind, building my confidence and getting ever closer to making the music that was playing in my head a reality, a tangible thing for others to share. I could never have imagined what adventures those songs would take me on, but I've thoroughly enjoyed travelling around with them ever since, feeling them grow and spread their wings and spending time with some of the people who count them as a valued part of their personal soundtracks.

    As the fifth anniversary of “Disarm” approached I started making plans to revisit some of the songs, tenderly reworking the tracks that felt the most resonant to my current self, and the ones I felt would benefit from a different sonic approach.

    This EP is the result of those efforts. Originally released in December 2015, it was an important staging post on the musical journey that continues today - one I hope you’ll join me on.

lyrics

I am the sweet defender
I am the one you bruised
I am sick of feeling
I am sick
Of feeling used

I am the one who held you
I am the one who was always there
My heart, so swollen and sick to find
That love was useless

Now my tears stain
The streets you named
You kissed my heart then you ripped it away
But I only hold myself to blame
You ripped it away

I am the one left craving
I am the one who ends up alone
I am the one who loved you
I am the one you don’t

Now my tears stain
The streets you named
You kissed my heart then you ripped it away
But I only hold myself to blame
You ripped it away
Now my tears stain
The streets you named
You kissed my heart then you ripped it away
But I only hold myself to blame
You ripped it away

Now my tears stain
The streets you named
You kissed my heart then you ripped it away
But I only hold myself to blame
You ripped it away
