Description

This track sounds like a letter from autumn, written on the margins of yellowed leaves. It has the sweetness of a tangerine sky and the quiet heaviness of farewell hidden in every line.

The music shifts between light sadness and hope, as if the wind is rustling through the grass and someone is whispering, “Don't get stuck in your head.” Flowers become both a funeral wreath and a promise of a new cycle, and October is the point where sadness turns into calm.

This melody is about how hard it is to carry everything at once, but how beautiful the moment can sound when you let go.

Lyrics and translation

Original

sun-kissed tangerine
sky that helps you grieve
in a field, it’s early fall
once in a lifetime
once in my baby’s eyes
in these limestone lullabies
will try and fix you
only life to come
is it eternal?
in a flower burial
it’s too much to carry all
all begin in watercress
make me whole again
make it October
when the leaves reveal themselves
lift up, guide away
don’t be in your head today
in a flower burial
it’s too much to carry it all
and I’m wishing you the best
all begin in watercress
