about

This song was written before my near-death experience and seems to be a spooky kind of premonition of the earthquake and close brush with death. Song writing is so mysterious! I have written many songs that didn’t necessarily make sense at the time of writing but nevertheless felt right. In time, they revealed themselves to be elucidating something that I hadn’t understood when writing them.

lyrics

the ground beneath my feet will always be shaking
the blood under my skin will always be racing
the centre of my body will always be aching
the death inside of me will always be waiting

dare turn and face me
where i’ll be waiting
yeah come and make me
dare
yeah

I never thought I’d meet you in a place like this
heard you call me here from empty space
holding me to feel the thing in my chest
everything before is gone with no trace

dare turn and face me
where i’ll be waiting
yeah come and make me
dare
yeah

the ground beneath my feet has always been shaking
the blood inside my skin has always been racing
the centre of my body has always been aching
the death inside of me has always been waiting
