I am nothing, Im everything I am naive, I”m all knowing I am the dark, I am the light I am the day, I am the night I am fire, I am frost I am found and I am lost I am love and I am hate I am chance and I am fate We are one here and now There is no why there is no how There is only your hand in mine Bodies fused, our heart intwined So just let go, take a breath There is no life there is no death There is only you and me Here and now I am passion, ennui I am chained, I am free I am distant, I am near I am love, I am fear I am nothing, Im everything I am naive, I”m all knowing I am the dark, I am the light I am the day, I am the night Yes we all get lost sometimes Judging by the weight on my mind Should listen instead of talking Sit still instead of walking Have I been so beguiled as to be blind I am nothing, Im everything I am naive, I”m all knowing I am the dark, I am the light I am the day, I am the night We are one here and now There is no why there is no how There is only your hand in mine Bodies fused, our heart intwined So just let go, take a breath There is no life there is no death There is only you and me Here and now

Life is Better With You 03:10
lyrics

I can climb the highest mountain Breathe the air above the clouds I can dive the deepest waters Where it's cold and dark as hell I can walk amongst the ancient trees And feel their wisdom envelop me There's one thing I've discovered to be true It all feels better with you Life is better with you I can't believe the things that I have found Digging round inside my self All the pieces of my broken heart And of the darkness of my soul There's one thing I've discovered to be true It all looks better with you Life is better with you All those things that never happened Still they weigh upon my mind I lost my head inside the passion Trying to make up for lost time There's one thing I've discovered to be true It all looks better with you Life is better with you

Please don’t leave me now I can feel it so close some how Please don’t walk away tonight We just began our time I can’t seem to get enough of you Don’t ask the questions you don’t want to know the answers to You aren’t mine but I want you to be I sit in the dark hoping you’re thinking of me Please don’t leave me now I can feel it so close some how Please don’t walk away tonight We just began our time Nothing is forever Everything comes to an end one way or another Every moment we were together could have been our last And then it was Please don’t leave me now I can feel it so close some how Please don’t walk away tonight We just began our time

Claire 04:06
lyrics

Oh my dear Claire Our love seems so unfair Caught between a lover’s dream And the depths of our despair At first you set me free Now I’m lost upon your sea One minute I’m drowned in ecstasy The next I’m on my knees The next I’m on my knees Sleep now Know that it’s over Dream now Of moving forward Clear out All that has held me back Held me back Oh my dear Claire Eyes like lode stars calling me Still I must beware Oh my dear Claire Raging tempest, darkest nights It’s more than I can bear Sing that song to me The one that helps me to sleep Forget that I am lost at sea Adrift inside this dream Adrift in side this dream Sleep now Know that it’s over Dream now Of moving forward Clear out All that has held me back Held me back Oh my dear Claire Wind so warm, light so bright And skin so fair Oh my dear Claire You calm my soul with you I’d go Anywhere Sing that song to me The one that helps me to sleep Forget that I am lost at sea Adrift inside this dream Adrift in side this dream Wait now The dream isn’t over Place your hand on my shoulder Clear out All that has held us back Held us back Oh my dear Claire Our love seems so unfair Caught between a lover’s dream And the depths of our despair

Surrender 03:52
lyrics
buy track
We push and pull We scratch and claw We scream and shout Knowing nothing at all We forge ahead Without a clue Chasing a ghost Or something to hold on to…..but I surrender I surrender Spinning around Inside our heads We never live a day And then we’re dead Our eyes are closed Our minds are shut Whispers of heaven Keep us stuck in the mud I surrender I surrender I saw the look Deep in your eyes The ancient pain Came as no surprise Look where we are See where we’ve been As I awake This is where I begin I surrender I surrender

Ev'ry Dying Day 03:38
lyrics
buy track
Even though you are not with me You are coursing through my veins Killing all my anger Killing all my pain I’ll always make you balanced And I’ll never shift the blame And I promise to be present Ev'ry dying day There is no second guessing There are no steps to take Lay down right here beside me And we will both fade away In between the constellations Is the love that we have made And I promise to be present Ev'ry dying day And I promise to be present And to listen to my heart I promise to be still even when all the world seems like it’s falling apart For you alone have freed me I have broken my own chains So I promise to be present In ev'ry dying day Blessed are the faithful Who don't believe in anything For they we hold the answers When we let our voices ring The glory is upon us In every essence we are kings And so I promise to be present In ev'ry dying day And I promise to be present And to listen to my heart To be still when all world seems like it’s falling apart I’ll always have you with me Deep in my heart’s where you shall stay And I promise to be present In ev'ry dying day

I Forgive You Anyway 04:03
lyrics
buy track
Oh mommy dearest Life sure it ain’t fair You always said I’d never make it I was going nowhere You hid yourself in plain view Reciting your prayers When I asked you why you left me You still look at me and swear It was for love, love, love You did it for love, love, love It sure don’t feel that way But I forgive you anyway Oh daddy tell me What did you fear? Always a bottle between us I never got near You let your fists do the talking Let me wipe away my tears When I asked you “how could you do it, after all these years?” You said it’s love, love, love You did it for love, love, love Oh yes it’s love, love, love It sure don’t feel that way It sure don’t feel that way But I forgive you anyway You were my first love Sure won’t be my last Dark secrets looming Buried in your past I followed you down a dangerous path Kept thinking to myself Will I ever get back Into love, love, love Back into love, love, love Back into love, love, love It sure don’t feel that way It sure don’t feel that way But I forgive you anyway

Better Together 04:11
lyrics
buy track
When we first met You were heartbreak in silhouette I fell in love before a word was said And before too long We couldn't be apart We lived for the moment Even though you're right here You are a million miles away So please come home to me We are better together Don't you see So please come home to me We are better together Don't you see You and me Don't give up on me I call on you now In my moments of weakness You are the closest thing I have to forgiveness And now the lines are blurred and it's getting much worse I'm drowning in the secrets I'm standing still Like it's some sort of thrill watching you leaving But even though you're still here You are a million miles away So please come home to me We are better together Don't you see So please come home to me We are better together Don't you see You and me Don't give up on me

Almost There 05:12
lyrics

The time has come for me to disappear So hold me close one more time my dear This is a tragedy of the heart We can't be together but we can't be apart This pain it is so raw I can't be alone in it I’m torn up and twisted Everything I do reminds me of you And it kills me not to be able To be everything you need Your shadow in the darkness Your bandage when you bleed The whisper on your shoulder That gently guides your soul And so because I love you I have to let you go Yes I have to let you go We were almost there We were almost there I hope your next lover Loves you better than I did As you sip red wine in the moonlight On some rooftop in Madrid Let him look you in the eye Like I loved to do so much As you let your body go And surrender to his touch And it kills me not to be able To be everything you need Your shadow in the darkness Your bandage when you bleed The whisper on your shoulder That gently guides your soul And so because I love you I have to let you go Yes I have to let you go We were almost there We were almost there Maybe some day we will be together And I can have another chance To be the light that guides your travels And to kiss you as we dance We were almost there We were almost there

Let Me Love You 02:55

Many things have come to pass Sometimes I walk on broken glass There's been times when I can't breathe Open my eyes but still don't see All I know is that we're here right now So let me love you Many days have come and gone Many nights have been too long Many times I laid awake, again Thinking bout if we would still be friends All I know is that we're here right now So let me love you No one knows what lays in store Questioning life and what it's for Many hearts never have a chance To fall in love to feel romance All I know is that we're here right now

Where Lovers Go To Drown 03:57

You have hurt me over and over and over again Why the hell did I ever let you back in You have left me bleeding on the floor Think you’ll just come pick me up when you want more Go find yourself another punching bag Someone you can take for granted and tear their heart out instead You pull me in You push me out You suck me up You spit me out You pick me up You drag me down Into the depths Where lovers go to drown I thought my beating heart would burst when I saw you again Then I remembered how you left me for some film-making man You left me bleeding on the floor Think you’ll just come pick me up when you want more Go find yourself another punching bag Someone you can take for granted and tear their heart out instead You pull me in You push me out You suck me up You spit me out You pick me up You drag me down Into the depths Where lovers go to drown You don’t deserve my love anyway So I am telling you now, I’m taking it away You pull me in You push me out You suck me up You spit me out You pick me up You drag me down Into the depths Where lovers go to drown

Holding On To Me 04:06
lyrics
buy track
The way you look at me is how I know I let my walls come down, I let you touch my soul There's something so beautiful in letting go There's something strong in being vulnerable There's nowhere else I'd rather be Holding you holding on to me The way you tell me all the things You know I want to hear It makes my heart swell up and it melts my fear I want to do everything with do I want to live inside you There's nowhere else I'd rather be Holding you holding on to me I never thought I'd need you But suddenly I do Don't want to tease you with what I can or cannot do I have to break myself just so I can see you Then that's what I'll do The way you look at me is how I know I let my walls come down, I let you touch my soul There's something beautiful in letting go There's something strong in being vulnerable There's nowhere else I'd rather be Holding on to you holding on to me

about

Conceived, written and produced in Nosara, Costa Rica

Surrender to the unknown and let go of the fear and illusion of separation. Give in to the truth that we know in our hearts - we are all connected (to each other and nature) and we have the power to overcome our fears and reach our highest potential if we just let go. I surrender.
