we had a lot of fun, didn’t we? oh sure, there were bad times. difficult times. times i wanted to cease to exist. but overall, through the ups and downs, it was all worth it. at the end of the day, even with everything that soured, my love for you survived.
it was a great journey. i thought that i would be sad when it came to an end.
now that it is almost over, i feel almost relieved… happy and content that most things turned out good in the end.
stay by my side, while the universe explodes.
lyrics
you say i’ll never
but i think i will
you’re under my skin
and we’re traveling still
and i feel this feeling
i could like it my dear
i will completely surrender
just to have you near
’cause the salt of your skin
the sweet of your kiss
the gentlest touch
brings me to this
that you say i won’t
but i think i will
your grip is tight
and we’re traveling still
you have me captive
and i like it that way
and the truest truths
are the ones i don’t say
and you think i’ll never
but i know i will
and with great abandon
i am traveling still

Amber Earl - lyrics.
The Chicago wunderkind's debut album is half lo-fi hip-hop pianos and breakneck drumming, half polished pop songs full of orchestral arrangements and whimsical but melancholic melodies. Bandcamp Album of the Day Nov 23, 2020
A haunting, beautiful, autobiographical record that uses samples of old gospel records to wrestle with faith and unbelief. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 2, 2021
A mind-melter of a record, writes hallucinogenic songs that are harrowing one moment, breathtakingly beautiful the next. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 2, 2023
