Who Am I
Feel, do you feel what I feel Can you tell me if it's real? So I know which way it's gonna go 'Cause by now, I'm gonna pull myself down Before it even shows Time, they say it heals all wounds But there's still a little bruise I hope you see I've tried to let it go You don't even know 'Cause it's deep in my soul It doesn't even show And I wonder, am I strong enough To follow through Who am I? Am I someone that's done something wrong? Who am I? Will I always walk this road alone? Who am I? Am I someone that can write a song? Who am I? Just someone that you've heard before Why, why do I tell myself They're much better than me It shows, I've got to let insecurities go 'Cause by now, I can't give it all my energy There's not much left in me And I wonder, am I strong enough To follow through Wooah wooah wooah wooah Who am I? Am I someone that's done something wrong? Who am I? Will I always walk this road alone? Who am I? Am I someone that can write a song? Who am I? Just someone that you've heard before Or is it in my mind? Is it in my mind? I think it's time I tried, I've left myself behind Is it in my mind? Is it in my mind? I think it's time I tried, I've left myself behind

Vincent (Starry, Starry Night)
Starry, starry night Paint your palette blue and grey Look out on a summer's day With eyes that know the darkness in my soul Shadows on the hills Sketch the trees and the daffodils Catch the breeze and the winter chills In colors on the snowy linen land Now I understand What you tried to say to me And how you suffered for your sanity And how you tried to set them free They would not listen, they did not know how Perhaps they'll listen now Starry, starry night Flaming flowers that brightly blaze Swirling clouds in violet haze Reflect in Vincent's eyes of China blue Colors changing hue Morning fields of amber grain Weathered faces lined in pain Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand Now I understand What you tried to say to me And how you suffered for your sanity And how you tried to set them free They would not listen, they did not know how Perhaps they'll listen now For they could not love you But still your love was true And when no hope was left in sight On that starry, starry night You took your life, as lovers often do But I could have told you, Vincent This world was never meant for one As beautiful as you Starry, starry night Portraits hung in empty halls Frameless heads on nameless walls With eyes that watch the world and can't forget Like the strangers that you've met The ragged men in ragged clothes The silver thorn, a bloody rose Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow Now I think I know What you tried to say to me And how you suffered for your sanity And how you tried to set them free They would not listen, they're not listening still Perhaps they never will

Another's Arms
How can we pretend we're ok When everything around us falls apart Right now it feels like a hurricane Is blowing the roof off our house of cards Tell me how are we supposed to figure it out 'Cause I can't make you love me If you don't have it in your heart You don't have to stay here If you'd rather be in another's arms It would break my heart, but it's better than, Better than the lies No, I can't make you love me If you don't You don't even try to give me the time (Mmm) As you try to fix your web of lies (Oh) I wanted your love but I'm suffocated By all of the rules you expect me to abide by If I granted your wish Would you ever even try? 'Cause I can't make you love me If you don't have it in your heart You don't have to stay here If you'd rather be in another's arms It would break my heart, but it's better than, Better than the lies I can't make you love me If you don't I can't make you love, I can't make you love me I can't make you love, I can't make you love me (Woah) I can't make you love, I can't make you love me (Woah) 'Cause I can't make you love me If you don't have it in your heart You don't have to stay here If you'd rather be in another's arms It would break my heart, but it's better than, Better than the lies I can't make you love me If you don't

Healing
Reset my heart Restart my life Leave every part of you and I They say some things will never die But if I gotta let go of you Whatever comes, it better be good 'Cause all of the struggle that I have been through Left every piece of me battered and bruised This heartache I'm feeling Will take some healing And if it gets black and I'm losing my mind You just gotta hold me and give me the time This heartache I'm feeling Will take some healing I need some space to figure out The moments I can't live without 'Cause I don't want to make you wait So if you're gonna stay by my side I need to know that we'll be alright 'Cause all of the struggle that I have been through Left every piece of me battered and bruised This heartache I'm feeling Will take some healing And if it gets black and I'm losing my mind You just gotta hold me and give me the time This heartache I'm feeling Will take some healing So be real when I look in your eyes I've been missing that for some time Just say that you're mine 'Cause all of the struggle that I have been through Left every piece of me battered and bruised This heartache I'm feeling Will take some healing If it gets black and I'm losing my mind You just gotta hold me and give me the time This heartache I'm feeling Will take some healing Woah It will take some healing

This song is about letting go

What if your path is about un-becoming everything that isn't really you. So you can be who you were meant to be in the first place?

I never thought I’d write a song like this. If I had a song like this to listen to in my past, I think it could’ve helped me process my thoughts a lot better, and become the person I am proud to be, sooner.

Do you ever struggle with the idea of shaking off bad habits sometimes that are holding us back from becoming the best version of ourselves?

I wrote this with the amazing singer, songwriter and producer Kjetil Mørland who has worked with the likes of James Morrisson Sam Ryder and represented Norway in Eurovision. I am so proud of what we’ve created together.

Pass it to someone you feel like should hear this ❤️

Track #10: Shut My Eyes

After I played it live for the first time, many people came up asking who wrote the song because they related to it so much. That's when I realised maybe I was onto something as a songwriter, and I decided to focus more on my own music instead of just doing covers.

Shut My Eyes
I won't shut my eyes In case I don't see you again And the light that you bring Into every room That you walk into And I want to follow you Just take me home Would you take me home 'Cause home is where it all began And home is where I'll see your face again So I won't shut my eyes I want you to know The feelings that I hold So close to my chest So it will repress what's really going on 'Cause home is where it all began And home is where I'll see your face again So I won't shut my eyes So now it's time to choose What you want for yourself Do you see me and you? Am I holding you near? Holding you so near So now it's time for you to choose What you want for yourself Do you see me in you? Am I holding you near? Holding you so near 'Cause home is where it all began And home is where I'll see your face again Ohh And if we could live For a thousand years Well, there is nothing that I I wouldn't give to remain by your side So I won't shut my eyes
