Edges 04:52
Ground is flat, sea is rough, sky is deeper than we know. But you are edges, you are curves. And in my sheets, you are colors, you are shapes, you are lines. And in my your hues, you’re my muse. In your corners, I would hide, Where your shadows and light collide. And in my bloodstream, on my skin, There your colors, let you in. I forgot ’til we met, how to see the simple things. Like how your edges, come to curves. Do you mind if I write, so I don’t forget, Where you end and I begin? In your corners, I would hide, Where your shadows and lights collide. And in my bloodstream, on my skin, There your colors, let you in. Where your edges, and my edges, align. Where your edges, and my edges, align.

about

The sun, the sea, a cup of coffee,
A book, the rain, a window pane;
These are the simple things,
These are the simple things.

We’re growing up and everything is complicated.

It’s overwhelming. It’s losing all your left socks in the dryer at once, or getting into a minor car accident, or your body changing, or your heart being broken for a very, very long time. As long as you can remember you’ve been feeling like you’re running to stay on top of the world, and maybe it’s spinning faster than you can keep up with.

Remember when you realized how much you love the scent of lavender, or a bath at just the right temperature? Things have been moving so fast and yet so slow that you’ve forgotten about those simple things, even though they’re the most important, vital parts of life. Without them, we’d all just be chainlink fences, with each part of yourself twisted and inseparable from the rest.


As we enter our quarter-life crises, we’re striving to manifest simplicity. This warm love song is simultaneously about love and our fiery friend in the sky. The sun is one of the simplest, most amazing simple pleasures out there.
