The first track to come from the upcoming debut EP due out before the end of 2021

lyrics

Just a cog in the machine
Keeping time in motion
Like a dream
Like an ocean breeze
Comes crashing on me
And Im riding the wave of some scene

Like a butterfly from nowhere
Or a light on a screen
Has an angel descended
from the clouds that rain over me

We repaint the picture as we start it over
mistakes and regrets are thrown over the shoulder
The pages burn to ashes as we turn them over
Do we live for the unknown or do we live for now?

From the fog in-between
In the haze of the sunlight
as it bleeds through the tear at the seam
We don't have to agree
To be cruel, to be kind
To be free

From the clincking of glasses
Or a spark in the eye
Theres a glimmer of memory
As time goes rushing by

We repaint the picture as we start it over
mistakes and regrets are thrown over the shoulder
The pages burn to ashes as we turn them over
Do we live for the unknown or do we live for now?
