say my name that’s what i was waiting for you’re so similar, i don’t feel alone anymore as the sun sets see the reflection in your eyes and there’s nothing else quite like this but i’ll delude myself entirely i knew something was right when i saw you i remember conversations had subtle compliments but feelings were left unsaid take my hand we’ve got so much left to explore you’re so comfortable i don’t feel alone anymore as the rain falls see the reflection in your eyes and there’s nothing else quite like this but i’ll delude myself entirely i knew something was right when i saw you i remember conversations had subtle compliments but feelings were left unsaid

a clouded memory of you into me i took my guard down and i lost something that would never be now it’s raining inside filter through me the words that you mean a ghost in my life and i thought that you were too nice to me i’m contemplating your mind now you don’t see me anymore i’m just shadow that walked out the door only worth talking when there’s a reward now you don’t see me, not like at the start i’m now just a fool on my way to get hurt yeah only worth talking when there’s a reward you came into my life and i hoped you’d stay a while but i took my guard down and i thought that i would be over you trying to hide it in my eyes now you don’t see me anymore i’m just shadow that walked out the door only worth talking when there’s a reward now you don’t see me, not like at the start i’m now just a fool on my way to get hurt yeah only worth talking when there’s a reward

cut it out 02:28
never mind, i’ve been overthinking all the time stay in bed avoiding more replies i need to send now i'm thinking about you while i walk out the door ask for your number, will you give me a call? should just cut it out i never know what to do should just cut it out should just cut it out i never know what to do should just cut it out see you there, i'll be acting like i never cared (never cared) looked to you, god i really wish you asked me to if i saw you around i'd never know what to say maybe i need a sign i guess i'll just have to wait should just cut it out i never know what to do i should just cut it out should just cut it out i never know what to do should just cut it out

in the rain 03:25
it’s been a while haven’t felt like this for so long can’t stop thinking of your smile and the simple things you do and i feel at home in your eyes standing in the middle of a field watching the moon rise i just want to be close to you met you once or twice is it wrong to feel this way after such little time? or do you feel the same? cause i really caught the vibe that we could be talking here all night, in the rain or was it just my mind? now once again i fantasised too much about the good times have you been talking with your friends? have they told you things that weren’t true? and i feel so alone while i cry standing in the middle of my room waiting for you to reply i just wanted to talk to you met you once or twice it was wrong to feel this way after such little time and you never felt the same cause i really caught the vibe that we would be talking there all night in the rain but it was just my mind
5.
dreaming 04:14
i tried to fight the feeling who would’ve known, who would’ve known that someday you’d be healing my broken bones, broken bones inside of my head i think about the times that i’ve spent but i know feelings come and go, feelings come and go i try to find the meaning who would’ve known, who would’ve known that i’d end up believing that i’m alone, all alone and inside my head i think about the times that i’ve spent but i know feelings come and go, feelings come and go i try to stop from dreaming who would’ve known, who would’ve known that i would find the reason for the unknown and inside my head i think about the times that i’ve spent but i know feelings come and go, feelings come and go

about

I wanted to create a project that felt incredibly personal to myself and was able to bring acceptance and confidence to me as an autistic person living in the society we live in. I hope the lyrics can ring true to other autistic people who listen to my music, while also giving a perspective to those who aren’t. The name of my EP is inspired by a cassette tape of the same name, my mum had made with her band in the 90s – it felt right to use it as my mum has helped me out so much and she’s just great. I wrote and produced most of the songs myself in my bedroom, but I worked with Martyn Barker from Shriekback who did percussion for subtle compliments, in the rain and dreaming, and co-produced in the rain with me at Echo Zoo studios. Working with Martyn is always great as we work really well together and he’s always able to understand the vision of the songs I write.
