about

Hello all! Just a little note on the EP. . .

These five songs were written over the past 7 months. After spending time with them, re-working and editing parts, they were brought into the studio for recording and further musical arrangement. I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Producer Dave Meszaros and some very talented musicians building them into what they are on this EP. It was one awesome time!

I have made this EP 'pay what you want' as I would rather leave it up to you to decide what to give. However, anything you choose to give will go directly towards sustaining this musical project.

I hope you enjoy the tunes. Please spread the word and stay on the lookout for some shows!

With all my heart and gratitude, thanks:)

Colyn

Track Name: Wild Country
Lyrics:
What will become of the truth when we keep it in
things we don't remember when they ask us when
we did the things that we learned we shouldn't do again
what wasn't learned from mistakes, we will make them

Maybe this is my heart and maybe it is yours
burns away the eyes peering in our doors

If I want to leave I will, stand on my feet I do
only takes these words you never believe are true
I'm never gonna chase something, it's a total waste running
after what they take in hundreds, look at what they praise, nothing

Oh we go where we don't know the way
fire meets fire we run and it's all the same
Oh we go where we don't know the way

Maybe this is my heart and maybe it is yours
burns away the eyes peering in our doors

If I want to leave I will, stand on my feet I do
only takes these words you never believe are true
I'm never gonna chase something, it's a total waste running
after what they take in hundreds, look at what they praise, nothing
If I want to leave I will, stand on my feet I do
only takes these words you never believe are true
Track Name: You'll Never Go
Oh my words, are always like whispers to her, they don't make us feel heard, they only make the heart hurt
Oh the hours, don't pass away what is ours, we must grow these flowers with our own soul's power

Oh but don't you say that you never loved somebody, we ran the meadows, drank it all up dry,
Oh but don't you say that you never loved somebody, we ran the meadows, fell but not to die,

Who are we to say we never had it good, we had every good thing like love
they say that you forgot your heart where you would, never go, never go

Oh the days, are so far from feeling raised, above all this madness we made, we got our love to save

Oh but don't you say that you never loved somebody, we ran the meadows, drank it all up dry,
Oh but don't you say that you never loved somebody, we ran the meadows, fell but not to die,

Who are we to say we never had it good, we had every good thing like love/
they say that you forgot your heart where you would, never go, never go
Track Name: Gold
So, didn't you find love or salvation in what they do,
a heart is built of gold, they fairies they are too, its in the hands you hold,
how long can we ignore, we build a little more, and then we break our truth

'oooooo' (for four bars)

I don't feel like I'm falling, I'm up against the sky,
I said I'd taken it all in to make the good life,
I don't feel like I'm falling, I'm up against the sky,
let's grab the heart of the world and turn into the light


But I cannot turn around, the angels hear me now, go where i'm bound,
you smile like you know the new world has been found

'oooooo' (for four bars)

I don't feel like I'm falling, I'm up against the sky,
I said I'd taken it all in to make the good life,
I don't feel like I'm falling, I'm up against the sky,
let's grab the heart of the world and turn into the light
I don't feel like I'm falling, I'm up against the sky,
let's grab the heart of the world and turn into the light
Track Name: Grow
I look around, saw the way that we hit the ground and tell me your not eager to get out
they way were down, it gets harder to escape and how if we want to runaway, lets go now

By the time I get ahead I feel some darkness reign,
these memories they call me back to them again and again,
we go falling slowly not break too fast, too fast,
they know our world's so strong for it will outlast all that

I never know what to think of what it shows to be loyal and grow old, strong we grow
but you can go, just don't forget this home we made and now i'll dance alone, free on my own

By the time I get ahead I feel some darkness reign,
these memories they call me back to them again and again,
we go falling slowly not break too fast, too fast,
they know our world so strong for it will outlast all that
Track Name: Seaside
I went down on one knee asking for forgiveness oh please,
begging like a beggar diseased, praying that she, that she show mercy,

Maybe we can walk at sunrise, at seaside
Maybe we can walk at sunrise, at seaside
Listen to the birds as they fly, and we rise
Listen to the birds as they fly, and we rise

I was shaken, held the hand of you, looking at the bottom of my soul,
Crying out, crying out to who would lead from this place i didn't know

Maybe we can walk at sunrise, at seaside
Maybe we can walk at sunrise, at seaside
Listen to the birds as they fly, and we rise
Listen to the birds as they fly, and we rise
