A voice memo of a new song for you!
Added 2021-08-12 03:56:07 +0000 UTCHello my beautiful $5+ patrons!!
While we set up this download site for you (that will have ALL THE DOWNLOADS IN ONE PLACE HUZZAH!!) I wanted to give you this little voice memo! It's not an actual demo, this is just me recording the song I wrote on my phone so I'd remember it. I wrote it at the beginning of July and forgot about it, but I found it today and was like...hmm there are some gems in here! I'm not sure what I'll do with it, but it's nice enough to share for now. Complete with awkward text "ding" from my computer that I forgot to mute 😬 It's called That's How You Know.
Enjoy, friends! I'm writing a lot more right now, so get ready for all the memoooos!

When you cry when they’re not around for no reason at all
When they help you fall in love with who you’ve been all along
When there’s not a second that goes by
When they hug your inner child and wipe her tears away
That’s how you know
When you watch yourself unfold like a fresh set of sheets
When the life you think you want lies open and complete
When your phone dies during every call
When there’s no way to walk away without longing
That’s how you know
That’s how you know x3
When they ask you to be strong as they break you
When you pause before saying “I love you more” cause you’re too afraid it’s true
When your feet don’t touch the bottom and the panic hits your chest
That’s how you know
That’s how you know x3
When your friends start to ask if you’re ok
When you say you’re tired but you lie there awake
When you bring your whole self in the room and leave with half
That’s how you know
That’s how you know x3
When you grieve the loss of someone you’re going to see tomorrow
That’s how you know

Oof that hits differently, absolutely beautiful! ❤️ Love that! Also the little text notification sound at the end was perfect 😂

2021-08-12 05:12:47 +0000 UTCAbsolutely beautiful as always, I feel like so many people could relate to it in so many different ways. I kinda hope that you keep the message notification at the end because it actually works really well with the theme of the song!

2021-08-12 04:30:55 +0000 UTCIt might be a rough cut, but I agree you have a gem here. 'When they help you fall in love with who you’ve been all along' is the line that had particular meaning for me. And please make the final version end with a little 'ding' like that -- I think it really works!

2021-08-12 04:29:08 +0000 UTCAbsolutely Beautiful and Brilliant. I'm 58, and yet I still don't know, but that's ok. I'm at ewase knowing I never will. Thank you, Malinda.
