Wren LaFeet These two have sound down to a science. Heather's lusciously dripping voice combined with Isaac's melty yet bouncy production mastery create a unique and eminently dance-able set of tunes. Plus they are absolutely lovely people and just exquisite to experience live. Support these two and see em whenever you can now cause they're blowing up! <3 Favorite track: Closer.

VERSE 1: why do you run like it hurts babe? I could trace your fingers back to the place they remember best in eyes deer in headlights what’s come over me? I’m shaking like a leaf I just know I want you so I’ll roar like a lion So loud you can’t deny CHORUS I know I can become restless When I hear (see/feel) you I can’t help myself like the king of beasts find your running feet memory calling you under me, so I I pray to the land to make us wild again VERSE 2: wild again what we are blood & bones going far like shooting stars I am here the battle’s been won I'm ready for you the shape of delight lies in my bones tonight and it'll call you - it calls you right to me CHORUS BRIDGE Coming up slow from a dark so long Run on home right into my arms We’ll raise our heads and sing our song In our blood and in our bones ooh so loud they can’t deny CHORUS OUTRO: makes us wild again retrace your steps like memories come where I'll be waiting make us wild again

Closer 03:23
Take me to the dark side Show me the bright lights Your body speaks I lose My speech Deep into the velvet blue The moment that we embrace Listen to the give & take Warm me down In & out getting me lost Just to be found CHORUS Take my body closer To the place that trembles over Into starry corners Take my body closer Pressed against your arms I can hear your beating heart caress my mind a rising tide Filling me so high In and out pull me close Let me go I lose control Up and down Spin me round Pullin me in pullin pullin me in CHORUS Take my body closer Into starry corners Take my body closer To you

Broken Mind 03:16
VERSE: 1,000 hours in my room spent in my bed baby you lift your disheveled head and don’t recall where you’ve been If I looked at you the way you want me to would you - would you recognize my face or would you just push away? PRE : would you just push away? I want you to know CHORUS: If I could then I would leave you with your broken mind and if I had more discretion I would not desire you but I can’t fake it for you and I won’t make it without you every morning you’ll find the best of me VERSE: Enough letters fall away to take you every day do you think that I want it this way my babe - I don’t - I wish I wish that we could be happy I wish that you would want to see the way I want the world to lay out at our feet CHORUS BRIDGE: I won't chase your shadows Locked up on my wall You're like the ghost I always Longed to have at all i can’t fake it for you and I won’t make it without you every morning you’ll find the best of me OUTRO: damned if i do damned if i don’t you’re priceless death lost its will and now i won’t you’re priceless

VERSE: Rip tomorrow’s pain recall that you’re hanging on an empty frame so break the window open - and sing to the day that comes when you wear new wings I never knew that I could dream like this CHORUS : I can make the future fire in your eyes Shaking at the foundation It's bound to come to life so make it what you want give it with all the breath you’ve got You can make the day Like a wild flame Grace like bloods pounds Through veins that flow in your waking body My babe you’ll be free when fate follows Into tomorrow where stones and souls will become living things I never knew that I could dream like this CHORUS I never knew that I could dream like this CHORUS (DOUBLE) You can taste the future fire in your eyes We can shake the foundation We’re coming so alive no we won’t back down flying so fast hearts are pounding with fire in our eyes against the wind
5.
it’s all here welcome to your paradise the way is clear welcome to your paradise welcome to your new life time is every changing things are rearranging just like you no need to be worried no need to rush because this time it’s just for you your life is my life and my life is - it is a part of you (repeat) take it in Take it in now Take me in Breathe me in now it’s all here welcome to your paradise the way is clear welcome to your paradise welcome to your new life your life is my life and my life is - it is a part of you (repeat) take it in Take it in now Take me in Breathe me in now

Key To Me 04:19
VERSE: I’ll be waiting there catch my name scream my name down I’ll be waiting open armed and sitting - you fall into black and stained - come out to say - go down, and pray down, stop and come CHORUS All stops around the world fall away • fall away heart chasing for a pearl in the right moment you are the key You are the key • are the key • key to me You are the key • are the key • key to me I’ll be waiting there change my name scream my name down I’ll be waiting open armed and seeing you fall into down parading now you change my name you catch me as I fall down and pray CHORUS Bridge: Fall into these arms Fall into arms Fall into these arms Fall into these arms CHORUS
