Woke up to the sound from the upstairs
Of them being ready to go about their days
Not that I mind this at all
I’ll slowly start off my days
In the time that it withers quicker than the tree in the garden where we spent our last time
Meanwhile, I have to tell you that I’m still in the same struggle
And it keeps me awake til I see you in the dark
Cold air creeps into my room
And I close the window
It was just to forget what I was on about
And I’ll be watching myself go around in circle
In the time that it withers quicker than the tree in the garden where we spent our last times
Meanwhile, I have to tell you that I’m still in the same struggle
And it keeps me awake til I see you in the dark
In the time that it withers right away and it asks you to take a next path
Move on, you said
Sometimes, all it takes is a year of evaporation
And a way to be honest with you

It has been little more than half a year since I left my home country again. When I set off to this sort of journey, it usually is to break myself off from living inside my days and to see them from a bird's-eye view.
It is definitely a strange tactic. Regardless of the change, I am living in the life nonetheless and it does not completely let me observe it as a spectator. You could say that it almost is an experiment, throwing myself in new environment and trying to see how I react to it. In that sense, this EP is like an experiment report that describes how I have reacted, felt and thought during this period of time.
Personally, the point of making something, whether you call it art or not, is to document your days; what you have seen and experienced. Your emotions, thoughts and everything in-between. The EP is yet another example of that.
I hope you enjoy these songs as much as I do, if not more.
All the best,
Ukas
