All of the things
That you wanted to say
Have gone away
Far from here
Away from the fears
That hold me down
Another reason to be bold
My bones and brain are getting old
I don't want to lie to you
I lie enough to myself (to myself)
I don't want to die tonight
Not now (not now)
I'm not ready
Chorus:
Bonded by instability
Grounded in inability
To unwind myself from these threads that tangle us
Our excuses, well, they strangle us
And I love your design
You confuse me every time
Springtime is here and it's spent in apathy
All around me
Flowers in bloom
While something inside me wilts in gloom
Another reason to be bold
They tried to take away my soul
I don't need to prove to you
My life (my life)
You're not listening
I don't want to die tonight
Not now (not now)
You won't take me

Emptiness
The only now, the hurt
And are you lonely now
You go back in the dirt
What do I know?
The stars seek past Orion
And it’s crucial, I know
To paint the Halls of Dying
Find a way to memories of the past
Ancestral pain, we have to mend the gash
And what do we know?
We made this mistake before
It’s so crucial, I know
I need to act more, but
Numbing cycle consumes me and I
Want to, need to, feel like I’m gonna die
I can’t expect you to understand
You’re looking through the glass

No Future

So another night
Idly passes by
I’m blanking out, staking out
Who’s invading my mind
That creeps so steadily
There’s no future
No future for me
So many mines in a field of vines
I’m breaking out, thinking out
A futile escape from thee
It’s easy to see
There’s no future
No future for me
This is no time for survival
There is no time, I thought I told you
Crushed under the weight of it all
I surrender to the depths of my soul
Cruelty plays a part
In carving up the heart
I’m passing out, crashing down
I reach out to adore thee
But you don’t see me
There’s no future
No future for me
A downward spiral fall
A spirit heard the call
But I atrophied
In my apathy
I made a promise to me
I’m sorry to see
There’s no future
No future for me

April Rose Orlando, Florida
Acoustic music steeped in melancholy with lyrics that are honest and often times heartbreaking.
Vocals that are
rich yet as the same time ethereal.
My biggest musical inspirations for this style of music are: Elliott Smith, Seal, Tori Amos, Aimee Mann, Porcupine Tree, and Kate Bush.
