i wrote this song near the end of 2018, right after i escaped a difficult time in my life and had to move in with my dad before i found my feet in glasgow.
those of you who know me through my previous songs will understand that i was trapped in a difficult relationship, it’s no secret. this is a song about how i used to dream about breaking up with her and subsequently breaking her heart. it was often raining in my dreams.
all instruments performed by me. drumming by sam leighton.
i currently record my music at home in my apartment in glasgow, scotland.
i used two microphones for everything, an se 4400A and an se 2200A. i use logic pro x, and plugins by waves.
i think my favourite guitar pedals are my jhs vcr and tc hall of fame.
i play a fender stratocaster. -----------
lyrics
I stopped looking out for myself.
The answer’s never in the bottom of the bottle.
But it doesn’t, hurt to find out whether that is common knowledge.
Til the day after when you’re all alone, again.
And it rains down on me. You woke me up this morning.
When I break your heart, every night when I’m dreaming.
When it rains down on me, why I wasn’t I just sober.
When I break your heart.
I took my mind for a wander.
The air was bitter, but I'm bitter too.
I’m sorry to be constant misery.
Let me fall the next time I reach for your hand.
And it rains down on me. You woke me up this morning.
When I break your heart, every night when I’m dreaming.
When it rains down on me, why I wasn’t I just sober.
When I break your heart.
Tell me if you’re gonna be there, tell me baby, tell me soon.
Tell me if you’re gonna be there, tell me baby, tell me soon.
Tell me if you’re gonna be there, tell me baby, tell me!
And it rains down on me. You woke me up this morning.
When I break your heart, every night when I’m dreaming.
When it rains down on me, why I wasn’t I just sober.
When I break your heart.

if the word "ethereal" had a favorite album it would be No More Summer Songs! a wave of warm sounds envelops you like fresh blankets from the drier the moment the album begins! juno!
Perfectly gloomy Norwegian goth/post-punk, anchored by a punchy rhythm section and driven by chiming guitar lines and morose vocals. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 16, 2021
