we are each other, this will set us free

They’re strong, decorated in mystery Can they lift me up? Take me to the clouds that are sleeping Right now That are sleeping right now Can I hold them? Can they hold me? I want to fall down with all my weight I want to love you in this current state I want to connect to what you say I want to love you with all my weight I will trace the lines on your hands Take us on a journey through untouched lands And nights that cover our skin Nights that cover our skin Can I hold them? Can they hold me? I want to fall down with all my weight I want to love you in this current state I want to connect to what you say I want to love you with all my weight I want to love you I want to love you I want to love you I want to

Golden Sky 04:39
Touching this golden sky, fingertips reaching high Could you rest the moon down on the shore? Soft sand giving in and waves that roar Roar, roar, roar The birds are weaving through the atmosphere They don’t know the sadness we felt here And the circles circle And the faces never fade And I’m shacked up in this lonely place Nothing left behind, flecks of time, scattered mind But golden is this sky, tree branches reaching high Holding everything that came before Fore, fore, fore The birds are weaving through the atmosphere They don’t know the sadness we felt here And the circles circle And the faces never fade And I’m shacked up in this lonely place

The Garden 03:18
I am growing into these leaves The edges of my form My soul is dissipating Thorns to pull from my feet Arches in full bloom Heady and awake Oh desire, oh desire Scared to admit to you I will never submit to you Scared to admit to you I will never submit to you Blackbird curious and brave Watching you remember a lesson that your Mother gave Oh desire, oh desire Scared to admit to you I will never submit to you Scared to admit to you I will never submit to you

The River 05:51
Could I live my life sheltered by this heather hill? This soil is where my feet are sure This land holds my heart still Down by Millrace Cottages This was my sanctuary A girl who carried nothing but a will to be free All things flow And we love alone All things flow And we love alone Oh the river’s wisdom She taught me all there is to know My body it remembers her and she will always be home All things flow And we love alone All things flow And we love alone All things flow And we love alone All things flow And we love alone This is home All things flow And we love alone This is home, this is home, this is home

Eruption 05:10
Eruption of feeling We landed Looking across A lake of liquid stone Torn apart by huge vibrations Shaken into new formations Bodies split open Our bond is broken Core emotion has awoken The force of this choice Fragments of history Linger under skin Courage My weakness Torn apart by huge vibrations Shaken into new formations Bodies split open Our bond is broken Core emotion has awoken The force of this choice

Getting High 03:55
I love to get high in my bedroom I love the way it makes me feel When I’m writing songs, playing my violin It helps me process grief We used to get high in our bedroom Hiding from a pain that overgrew Living with the hurt, did I make it worse? Holding on to you? Now when I go back to these memories I’m less fearful, less separate Stretching out each moment that we shared It all felt so unfair Wherever you’ve gone, know that your love carries on

I feel like a bird I feel like a bird Flying above the beauty Not with the beauty Duality, urgency Laughing at me All is being, all is being, all is being
11.
I went out today and saw an opening Everything was quiet and it felt like something You were gone one day like a flower dies I held onto your voice and looked into the sky to see your eyes Your eyes Locks on all the doors, no one is coming out And I can hear your voice, I think I know now The whole world stops here, Mother you’ve cried too long Will the seasons change or will this be our last song? Our last song Now is the time Now we have the time
12.
Time Weaver 06:30
We all know how to make up stories Something planted, seeded in our stomach Pieces of energy making images you feel Make yourself a bird and you will understand There is a tapestry that is woven in each moment And everything exists here everything exists A great force of love, is it dancing? Is it circling? Will you honour the process of creation? There is a tapestry that is woven in each moment And everything exists here everything exists So tell them of the love

Out Beyond 05:57
I’ve always got secrets, of that I am ashamed Something pulling me back in And on this shore I’ll stay Tell me I’m braver now Teach me to be loud Something has got me down So wait for me whilst I find my way out We are each other Don’t believe the illusion Trust in the melody that flows through you Know that there is a place Beyond all ideas Beyond fear I will meet you there

about

‘we are each other, this will set us free’ is a collection of songs and instrumentals created through reflection, memory, connection, disconnection, wonder, grief, introspection, and inner healing. This album is dedicated to Viktor Panko, who passed away on 17th February, 2020 at the age of 26 after a long and courageous battle with osteosarcoma. Viktor was a very special human who saw the profound beauty in people and in life.

I hope when you listen to this album, it soothes you in some way and helps you feel connected to yourself and to others.
