Verse 1:
There she is,
starving, cold
Her eyes they hold
a hollow hurt haunting me
Shallow breath
She says to me
You left me for dead
Nothing’s left
pre:
I’m a part of you
You never knew
(but) You forgot me too
ohhh
please remember why
you severed our tie
So then i answered her
ohhh
Chorus:
Oh, feral child
Your hair so tangled
Your soul so wild
I’m not whole without
You in my heart
I pushed you out
I had to go down so far to meet you where you are
You’re lonely and cold but it’s only the dark
I'll hold you through the pain, promise you it’s ok
Couldn’t tell you before,
Now i'm ready, and here for you
Oh, feral child
Verse 2:
I'm trying
To love you again
Feed you and clothe you
Find my innocence
touch your hair
tell you i'll be there
your eyes come alive
your beauty it fills me
pre:
you’re a part of me
I never knew
(and) i’m broken too
ohhh
i remember now
To get better
we must be together
Forever…
Chorus:
Oh, feral child
Your hair so tangled
Your soul so wild
I’m not whole without
You in my heart
I pushed you out
I had to go down so far to meet you where you are
You’re lonely and cold but it’s only the dark
I'll hold you through the pain, promise you it’s ok
Couldn’t tell you before,
Now i'm ready, and here for you
Oh, feral child
Bridge:
the open sky
i see ahead
i can feel space in my chest
I feel you
Here with me
Together we
Are flying, wild and free
Chorus:
Oh, feral child
Your hair so tangled
Our souls intertwined
I’m not whole without
You in my heart
won't push you out
I had to go down so far to meet you where you are
You’re lonely and cold but it’s only the dark
I'll hold you through the pain, promise you it’s ok
Couldn’t tell you before,
Now i'm ready, and here for you
Oh, feral child

Volcano

Verse 1:
Running through concrete streets I
Feel something building inside
It shakes the ground beneath my feet
So I move faster and faster
My heart like a drum getting louder
I don’t think that I can hold it back..
Pre- Chorus:
What if I can’t control it?
I don’t want this world to choke
On the anger that has smoldered
into ash and smoke
It’s coming, and I know it
It brings me to my knees
For so long, these tremors waiting
To find their sweet release
Chorus:
I’m a volcano….
When I let my fire go…
I’ll make diamond sands
And fertile lands
and you will know
you will know
I’m a volcano….
When I let my fire go…
I’ll make diamond sands
And fertile lands
Where new things grow
New life grows
Verse 2:
You almost won, you deceived me
With your honey tongue, i believed it
I pushed my feelings underground, hey
but my blood became a river
Heating and boiling over
A silent scream finally let out….
Pre- Chorus:
What if I can’t control it?
I don’t want this world to choke
On the anger that has smoldered
into ash and smoke
It’s coming, and I know it
It brings me to my knees
For so long, these tremors waiting
To find their sweet release
Chorus:
I’m a volcano….
When I let my fire go…
I’ll make diamond sands
And fertile lands
and you will know
you will know
I’m a volcano….
When I let my fire go…
I’ll make diamond sands
And fertile lands
Where new things grow
New life grows
I’m a volcano….
I have let my fire go…
I make diamond sands
And fertile lands
Where new things grow
Im a volcano, volcano

My Heart is Dry

Verse 1:
my heart is dry, like the sand under Arizona’s sky
and i have no tears left to cry
i already tried to let someone like you inside my soul
the clouds burst and i lost control
but you
Pre-chorus:
you say I need a river
my soul’s about to wither
Chorus:
But i've been stuck in this drought for so long
I can’t remember the rain
This desert feels like my home
And love might be a mirage
Verse 2:
I walk for miles, these lonely dunes Are cold and wild
i don't want to live and live die in exile
but i
I am scared of this love, I spent too long worshiping the sun
I don’t know if I can open up
but you
Pre-Chorus
you want to be my river
I take your hand and whisper
Chorus:
But i've been stuck in this drought for so long
I can’t remember the rain
This desert feels like my home
And love might be a mirage
Bridge:
gold skies
I see a wildflower
Reaching for the sky
The possibility for new life
maybe its not too late for you and i
Chorus:
But i've been stuck in this drought for so long
I can’t remember the rain
This desert feels like my home
And love can’t be a mirage

Ghosts

Verse 1:
It’s 3am and
I can’t fall asleep
These memories
Dance on the ceiling
I feel something rise
From a graveyard in my mind
I toss and turn
Put on all the lights
I’d rather stay up all night
Than have to face what’s underneath there…
Chorus:
I’m scared to wake the dead
So I’ll let those lonely shadows rest
They don’t belong here
So ill give them to the night,
No these ghosts
Won’t haunt me tonight
Verse 2:
It’s 4am and
My skin is shivering
I walk outside
To feel the starlight
Pale figures appear
At the edges of the trees
I stand my ground determined to fight
Suddenly I see
These ghosts are part of me,
Wandering, yearning
Chorus:
It’s time to wake the dead
Bring back those parts of me
I left, hungry and broken
Hiding from the light
Now I know love can bring them back to life

Black Cloud

Sitting by the ocean
Wool coat not keeping me warm,
Blue sky all around me, inside a gathering storm
Gold light on the water, but I could see only grey
The hours stretching for days
I wanted to fade away, but something inside me
Was praying, for changes
I close my eyes tight, feel electricity rising
I knew I couldn't run,
I knew I had to face it
To become the thunder and lightning
Knew i had to embrace it
I felt my body shaking
When the tears finally came I
Let it rain
Going through the black clouds.
Going through the black clouds
When I saw you hurting, couldn't get it out of my brain
Your eyes were pleading, I tried to take in your pain
It went inside me, till i couldn't feel anything
It was too big for the both of us
You know I love you,
but I'm not the one who can heal you
I have to let go, pray that you will find
The peace that you seek
I knew I couldn't run,
I knew I had to face it
To become the thunder and lightning
I knew i had to embrace it
Felt my body shaking
When the tears finally came I
Let it rain
Going through the black clouds.
Going through the black clouds
Water pouring out of me
Spills into the earth
This tiny seed is sprouting
This is my rebirth
I knew I couldn't run,
I knew I had to face it
To become the thunder and lightning
I knew i had to embrace it
Felt my body shaking
When the tears finally came I
Let it rain
Going through the black clouds.
Going through the black clouds
Going through the black clouds
Going through the black clouds
Made it through the black clouds

Alternative Dark Pop singer-songwriter Tess Posner takes the listener on a journey into the realms of the subconscious to
shine a light on the hidden parts of ourselves left behind.
She weaves together mesmerizing piano, ethereal synths and dynamic orchestral elements together with her lush vocal harmonies that lay over a bed of deep-sounding drums and bass.

I've bought 24 albums on Bandcamp Friday, working myself now through this pile of great music, while trying to catch up with the Olympic Games 2022. Emily Henry is one of the best Twitch streamers I'm aware of, and she's an outstanding songwriter, selling her music on Bandcamp, too. I wonder why so many fellow streamers prefer to get ripped off by Spotify... Anyway, I hope for many releases of Emily Henry here - and for many great streams on Twitch there: https://www.twitch.tv/emilyhenrymusic
