Lyric

A Freedom That Frightens Me

Orin Keller

Shiver in the speakers

Air is holding its breath

Every little ghost in my chest

Climbs the ladder of sound

I open up

Like a crack in the glass

Light gets in

Cuts straight through my past

All that I was

Runs thin, runs fast

Face in the water

I can’t make it last

It’s a beautiful release

It’s an ache I can’t contain

I’m a shape that never settles

I dissolve, then start again

I am open, I am trembling

Every promise, every stain

Beautiful release

Unfixed in the falling rain

Hands at my sides

Nothing left to defend

Words lose weight

On the way that they bend

You look through me

Like a door with no end

If I disappear

Will I still pretend? (Oh)

It’s a beautiful release

It’s an ache I can’t contain

I’m a shape that never settles

I dissolve, then start again

I am open, I am terrified

Every truth, a quiet flame

Beautiful release

Unfixed in the falling rain

Let me be formless

Let me be wrong

Let me be breathing

Inside your song

If I become nothing

Held in your gaze

Would that be mercy

Or just another phase?

It’s a beautiful release

It’s an ache I can’t contain

I’m a shape that never settles

I dissolve, then start again

I am open, I am breaking

Every loss, a gentle stain

Beautiful release

Unfixed in the falling rain

Breathing in the in-between

Where I end, where you begin

Staying here, half-formed, unseen

Let the next life seep in

    Loose Maps

    Orin Keller

Loose Maps is an album about tolerance, chaos, solitude, and release found in motion
Instead of focusing on specific places or events, it captures shifting emotion through humid air, blurred crowds, uncertain light, and small acts of kindness, all shaped into a refined Electronic / Downtempo sound.
