☾ Released on the June Strawberry Moon of 2023 – let me introduce One ☾
———————————————————————————————————————————————————
I’ve kept this a little close to my chest 💛
After years of health issues, and life’s many challenges, it took time for me to really believe I could do anything with music at all. I spent my time in the North East learning how to piece together songs and tell my story. For my next releases, I’ve decided to take it back to where it all began for me with a project called, ‘Trust the Season’.
The music has spiritual messages that I received and whispered to myself in times of need and I hope they find you well and hold your hand if you need it. ‘One’ is the opening single of this three part collection and was finished remotely over lockdown. It is fundamentally a protest song that encourages healing through an appreciation of the connection we share with each other, nature and the cosmos.

❂ Lyrics ❂
One
Broken pieces stained glass
The universe can hear us
We’re all shards of the same
Experience in one name
If I hurt you, I hurt me
So in the end we all grieve
Broken pieces, one glass
See the beauty of us
The same, same, same, same past
Like stained, stained, stained, stained, glass
Find your pieces, find your path
Like stained, stained, stained, stained glass
Can we take it much higher than here?
(Broken pieces, stained glass)
Everything that we’re doing to disappear
(The universe can hear us)
Well that could never be real
(We’re all shards of the same)
No matter how far we stray, we are still here
(Experience in one name)
Broken bodies on the street
(Broken pieces, stained glass)
Cover your eyes cause you don’t wanna see
(The universe can hear us)
You see the truth will set you free
(We’re all shards of the same)
No matter how far you’ve been deceived
(Experience in one name)
If I hurt you, I hurt me
So in the end we all grieve
Broken pieces one glass
See the beauty of us
The same same same same past
Like stained stained stained stained glass
Find your pieces find your path
Like stained stained stained stained glass
There’ll be no house left
If we can’t share it
So we burnt it down
The children knew it
Screaming from their lungs
But we didn’t hear a sound
There’ll be no house left
If we don’t share it
So we burnt it down
The children knew it
Screaming from their lungs
But we didn’t hear a sound
