I lay sad melodies
No choice not to
To expel cloudy sighs prevailing
Recalls too much
One love I gave up fully
And when it ended
Decided no to be in love again
I needed to save me
Why are us people longing for someone to be in love?
Despite the pain we surely know that comes within
I don’t want those feelings anymore
Maybe just right for me to love in the distance
Not too close to it
There’s me feel uneasy in the little things
Like the things I said bring me down
May this sad ballad end
Why are us people longing for someone to be in love?
Despite the pain we surely know that comes within
I don’t want those feelings anymore
Maybe just right for me to love in the distance
Not too close to it
One day my heartache be free
Might take a while
Till I get to release all my tears
May this sad ballad end

Stays on retaining the beautiful melody lines from previous one, but moreover, this EP has more relaxing sounds feature as adding a small combo arrangement which are done by her own Piano/Rhodes piano, Acoustic bass and Percussion programmings. These gentle songs are expressing a detailed her past romantic experiences that "How I really feel and think , and what I am looking for" as of today, and she positioned this as a building a bridge to her future thoughts coming in a while.
