Speak me truths untold
Through your push my pulls
I'm weightless. We're nameless
Inside our glow
In our midnight hour
The time it moves, our mouths
Are shaping, are waiting
To come undone
For a moment of love
In our unmade ribs
Our structure softly bends
When raining, we're swaying
Slip inside your skin
When we touch we'll pretend
you're giving, I'm receiving
Oh, your breathing
(In the tree tops incandescent)
We're leaving
(Like a tree we shed our skin)
Our old skin for new skin of love
And you just don't fall the same
(Like leaves you're falling freely)
When the air all goes away
(In the tallest trees)
Your leaves they sway so strange
(In the moonlight reeling)
You're sleeping and I'm singing
And so suddenly I want to say
When you breathe into me...
(A storm could not shake us)
Oh when you breathe, into me
(A force could not break us)
Yes, when you breathe into me
(Our gravity is changing)
When you breathe, when you breath
(We’re floating and nameless)

Alone in Chicago
04:02
|

I’m all alone in Chicago
Had to see my baby off
Next time we meet I don't know
I ain’t checking my clock
Well, we’ve been running the rivers
Climbing the rock
Swimming the seas, yeah
Singing our songs
We've been surfing the hands of time
All along
Now that you're gone
I’m all alone in Chicago
I’m all alone in the window
Waving at nothing there
Just the wind that you flew on
Left behind nothing but air
Well, we’ve been running the rivers
Climbing the rock
Swimming the seas yeah
Singing our songs
We've been surfing the hands of
Time all along
Now that you're gone
I’m all alone in Chicago
I’m flying home all alone
See my baby on the wings
Watching the setting of the sun
As she floats into the breeze
Well I’ve been running the rivers
Climbing the rock
Swimming the seas, yeah
Singing our songs
We've been surfing the hands of time
All along
Now that you're gone
I’m all alone in my heart
Alone in my heart
(Gone, long gone. Gone, long gone)

Ghost Town
03:47

I got my head straight
But got a dead weight
If I could shake free
I try to shake free
Will I wake up alone
And everyone’s gone
Maybe not
I’m in the mirror
I’m seeing clearer
I’m seeing through me
Seeing through me
Will I wake up alone
Feel the heat of you gone
From my heart
I got some heart ache
If I could escape
If I could break free
Try to break free
Feel the rush of the road
And the beat of my bones
Feel the spark
But in the mirror
I’m seeing clearer
You’re seeing through me
I see right through me
Will I wake up at home
and everyones gone
are we lost
In a ghost town
Ghost town
Are we alive
Are we living a lie
Living a lie
Are we not
In a Ghost town
Ghost town
Are we alive
Are we really alive
Are we really alive
Maybe not
Maybe not
(Ohhh, ohhh, ohhh)
In a ghost town
Ghost town
Are we alive
Are we living a lie
Living a lie
Are we not
In a Ghost town
Ghost town
Are we alive
Are we really alive
Are we really alive
Maybe not
Maybe not

Feel My Impulse
03:14

Feel my impulse
From afar away
Feel my impulse
From far away
I can’t pretend
You’re my blood, you’re my blood
I can’t pretend
You’re my blood, you’re my blood
I can never be like them
I won’t be around
No I can’t always near
But you know
Where I’ll be
Where I’ll be found
Feel my embrace
From far, far away
Feel my embrace
From far, far away
I can never be like them
I won’t always be around
No, I can’t always be near
But you know
Where I’ll be
Where I’ll be found
(Mhhmhhh)

SHIMMER ISLAND Austin, Texas
“Shimmer Island is unique among the endless links and releases hitting my inbox as a radio presenter. There’s a deep
soulfulness in their music. A timeless, almost genre-less, universal quality recalling electronica, folky-pop music, and the reflections of a strong singer-songwriter crafting songs that stand out … out of time, yet familiar all at once.”
- Marc Fort (Amazing Radio)
