demo no 71: homesick (Patreon)

hey secret demo club! I present to u your February demo: 'homesick', as written by a girl who is very far from home right now

as always u can stream the track here on the patreon site/app or download the mp3 for keepsies. let me know what u think in a comment below ! I had a lot of fun w this one trying out some new drum sounds & previously unexplored synths and it gave me a nice focus on tour this past week

lyrics:

it’s like my dreams have all been shrinking

lately i’ve been zooming out a lot

and i’ve been thinking

wouldn’t it be nice

to move to the countryside

give up on this and trade it in for a simple life

i’m like my parents undercover

tell a joke like dad

and keep a straight face like my mother

sticky habits stick around

they follow u and hunt u down 

every time the past comes calling - I gotta go

I don’t know where the hell I keep on running, I gotta go

blood is running too fast, too thick,

when will I admit i’m homesick?

you can take girl out of her home

and you can take the home out of the girl just so you know

if you tell your story

to enough strangers

you might even start to believe it yourself

I guess I was feeling uninspired

so I went and spent all of my money on a flight

now i’m here, is anyone listening?

my accent’s not enough to make me seem interesting

every time the past comes calling - I gotta go

I don’t know where the hell I keep on running, I gotta go

blood is running too fast, too thick,

told you that I feel fantastic 

blood is running too fast, too thick,

when will I admit i’m homesick?

water me down!

til i’m nothing but small talk

til i’m nothing like I was before

water me down!

dilute me like a juice box

now i’m nothing like I was

every time the past comes calling

I gotta go

I don’t know where the hell I keep on running, I gotta go

blood is running too fast, too thick,

when will I admit i’m homesick?
