From the recording Patterns
Inspired by Max’s first relationship and it’s ‘on again, off again’ nature, Patterns reflects on all the forms taken by the ties we make. “While we know how to paint with all the colours of the rainbow, the patterns we repeat when it comes to who we pick, how we interact with them and how we let them treat us, run deep below the surface.”
Lyrics
PATTERNS
You hurt me once before
I cried then I’m now oh
But you didn’t pick up all the pieces
And I found the ones I needed
Then we again once more
A pattern I’m sure
But the colours fit so well
And the grooves are deep as hell
And now I’m wondering how to get you out my mind
Because you take up significant power and significant time
Ooo x4
And I will loosen my grip just to let you go
Cut the cord just to let you know
That we can lose each other in the dark
And we will find our way back
And I will leave you behind in the back of my mind
after a laugh and cry I will be alright I’ll be fine. I said that I will be fine
We thought it be best for us
If we forgot our love and trust
But I won’t ever forget your eyes
And the way they stared into me and mine
And I break every time that I go
And you scream just to let me know
That you still miss me
And I still miss you
And now you’re wondering how to get me out your mind
Because I take up significant power and significant time
Ooo x4
And I will loosen my grip just to let you go
Cut the cord just to let you know
That we can lose each other in the dark
And we will find our way back
And I will leave you behind in the back of my mind
After a laugh and cry I will be alright I’ll be fine. I said that I will be fine ill be alright I’ll be fine. I said that I will be fine
To see you out with your friends
Smiling and laughing with all of them
To see you like that and to see you be
Someone more than you were with me
I’m glad for the eyes that I saw
Staring back lying on the floor
Reminiscing in the times we had
There’s tears in my eyes but I’m not sad
loosen your grip just to let me go
Cut the cord just to let me know
Lose me in the dark
Won’t find our way back
leave me behind, back of your mind
laugh and cry you will be alright you’ll be… I said that you will be fine
I’ll be fine
You’ll be fine
In my brain taking space
Just fine.
