about

This song is a hand reached inward to the swelling and amorphous cavities of grief. As time keeps moving forward, I have found that it can feel as if the 'bad days' keep going, growing into 'bad weeks,' 'bad years,' into new levels of struggle that are hard to move through. Though this realization can feel staggering, it can also feel like an honest admission to self: these times are very hard and yet I want to move forward, I want to feel, I want to grow. ‘Bad Week’ is my attempt to commit to myself in these feelings.

This is the first single off of our upcoming EP, "Nastavi, Calliope" out July 9th.

lyrics

It’s hard to talk about it being a bad week
When it’s been a bad week
For a long time now
And it doesn't seem to get better
And if it’s so hard then why should I keep going
It shouldn’t sound as sad as it does
But it’s just sad to say
It’s been a bad week for so many weeks now
And I see the positives
But it’s just so hard to ignore
There’s so much trouble
And there’s so much fire
I’ve been weary
And I’ve been trying
To keep above water and
Keep above lying down
It takes a train sometimes to pull me out
And I dont have the energy
I don’t have the stamina
To keep on fighting
But I’ll keep on fighting
I’ll do it.
Even at the darkest times
When I feel I’m cracking in two
There’s never a day that goes by
Where I don’t think of you
Wonder how you’re doing
Wonder where you sleep at night
If I’ll ever see you again
You were both a brother and a father to me
You were my whole family


It’s a struggle to keep it all together
Pretend that I’m holding too
Say that I’m here now and
that it will be over soon
If I’ve got to live like this
Wonder what I’ll wake up to
Wonder if I’ll wake up to
You were both a father and a brother to me
You were my whole family
