about

~It really isn't you.~

This is my first single since my last EP "Red Skies"
Mark Pico and I wrote this together and co-produced it over zoom starting in April of 2020. This is definitely the first piece I've done that is almost entirely virtual in its production and it is also the first song I've released that is a co-write. I hope you enjoy. Share with your friends and consider giving out of your abundance to support the next few releases and production costs we have. Much love -B

lyrics

Long Shadows in a dim lit cell
You're tired of picking locks
Your eyes are like two wishing wells
Dried of every drop

And I know it isn’t new
But this is all that I can do
I don’t care, I really should
But I don’t love you like I could
Giving nothing’s so easy when you’re so good

Sitting on the foot of my bed
Our disguises on the floor
Can’t take back words I never said
You deserve so much more

And I know it isn’t new
But I can’t see myself committing to
A version of me more mature
I only wish you understood
That giving nothing’s so easy when you’re so good

Suddenly what feels like an hour
Is only a single moment
I’m stumbling, I can feel the power
Of all these years I’ve stolen

(Of all these years I’ve stolen)

And I know it isn’t you
I’ve been everything love doesn’t do
Someone is saving their best for you
Nothing is easy when you’re so true
