When I couldn't find it, I searched hours upon days When I couldn't feel it, I tried to scour and sort my ways Paranoia doesn't get you too far Guess I never really got a fair start But, all I know Is there's room for us to grow Fingertips, They outline maps of two in this Yes, it's been a long time Since I've left the sure lines It's fall in the garden, The leaves are furling with the wind We've kept ourselves close now, In our room hiding from the din Paranoia doesn't get you too far, Guess I never really had a fair start But, all I know Is there's room for us to grow Fingertips, They outline maps of two in this Yes, it's been a long time Since I've left the sure lines.

Oh, Brother 03:06
Oh brother, what you seek lies here And the flowers, they bloomed soon this year Birds cross wires their shadows line The house where we once lived So tell me why, you seem to try To run away your fears? You find You're fine Now brother, where we are is clear Roads and shallow remarks soothed your ears Whippoorwills and willows, they yearn for your return So tell me why, you always try To play away, pluck away your fears? You fine You're fine.

Floorboards 02:35
All of the clothes they pile on the floorboards You and I make our way far from the door Tickets and gin we laugh about old nights When you held me closely away from the fights Winter was coming hands ache, chill cool winds I find a place for mine in your front coat You're a layer You curl onto my neck and hold Neath the cold dark, You weave good words and make me whole All of our clothes still pile on our new floors Though it's been years since I've seen my old fears Spaces they change, we laugh about old nights Ever so slightly we've gained love in age See fall is coming, knees ache, chill cool winds We move together, two leaves in the trees

Funny how things always change You take whats yours, You wonder how its played Some days I wonder away Like how are you Or if you're not ok Well, I would never wish you sadness Yes, I'm glad we played our game too And, I am loving well it's not you But I'd like you to know that There are other shades than blue I watch you dissipate in good ways Water always poured in May So what's it now? It floods in all your gates Don't make questions you can't say Like “are you with Another man these days” Haven't heard your voice in years I hope you found a love that fills your fears Well, I would never wish you sadness And yes I'm glad we had a go too And, I am loving well it's not you But I'd like you to know that There are other shades of blue

Leave, leave it on the floor I recognize the times when I was sure That now, we've got everything A loving year that came with fears of future days Go by, with you by my side I forget all the hours drowned in fretful sounds Darling I'm afraid of everything and I complain and leave remains with my old words But darling, with you I hear only melodies I regain strength and fly off like a new bird Put, put your feet on ground The air it fills my lungs and stirs my love around Your face, though we both are strained From working hard and standing round for others sake I know, that although it's hard We forget all the hours drowned in fretful sound Darling I'm afraid of everything and I complain and leave remains with my old words But darling, with you I hear only melodies I regain strength and fly off like a new bird Like a new bird.

about

Lose Your Blue is an indirect product of falling out of love, moving cities, and falling back into love unknowingly years down the line. Written over two years, these songs are an ode of "losing your blues" and gaining from experiences that seem unfit for reminiscing.

I'd like to thank my brother and father for their integral part in this process, and Scarlet for letting me turn her bathroom into a recording studio. More importantly, I'd like to dedicate this EP to all of the people who help us lose our blue and lift us out of sadness.
