about

in 2018/2019 I was doing a lot of DIY touring which was an absolute gift with so many moments of joy, but also very difficult. I was experiencing some very bad things with my health that couldn’t be explained by just tiredness. I kept pushing on in denial of the fact I needed to stop and give my body a break. I played “alive again” on all of these tours with disconnect, even though it was a song about the extreme lack of wellness I had. Even now, I feel a bit uncomfortable to share the things I’ve been through, for personal reasons
“Alive again” comes out on Friday, and I really hope it conveys the place I was in when I wrote it back in 2019, and also encourages people to reflect on their own health and well-being, something that’s increasingly important to me.

lyrics

Feel suffocated from a life
moderated by design
elementary division layered in the grime

everyone I know is helpless
but helps me all the time
there is never any justice for those

CHORUS
can I lay down my head
until I feel alive again
until I feel alive again

roll in the mud to ease the burn
easy habits I have learned
opportunity is chosen
it's never really earned

have a throat as dry as chalk
aftertaste of recent shock
take care of all your friends and enemies

CHORUS
can I lay down my head
until I feel alive again
until I feel alive again
until I feel alive again

BRIDGE
I wanna feel alive (repeating)
