About the song:

This song came about after Sue shared a profound conversation with our friend Nyla and began to reflect on her own experiences. Sue found the words to be difficult yet cathartic to write. When Kim read the lyrics, she immediately came up with a melodic structure and from there we filled in instrumentation like layers of paint. We are so proud of what this song has become. It’s got a bluesy rock beat with extra guitar at the end. Plug in your speakers and pump up the groove!

“Orphan” will be available on all platforms in a few days!

Orphan (lyrics)
Published by © 2018 Karmic Fury Records (ASCAP)

My feet fall heavily on this earth
One step after another is more difficult
I stand alone like an island
With all their good, with all their bad

Coursing through my veins
And clouding up my mind
So different, so much the same
Their spirits fill the air around me, surround me

All my regrets, all my darkness
All my joy, all my kindness
It has all come to the surface
It has all come to the surface

The veil between our worlds is thin
Haunting inside and outside of me
Walking together, I’m now walking alone
I’m walking alone

An island surrounded by a sea of memory
Thick and dark and as deep as fear
I must swim through and not drown
To walk again on solid ground

No matter how complicated it was
No matter how close or far away
I’m alone in this world
I’m an orphan

All my regrets, all my darkness
All my joy, all my kindness

It has all come to the surface
It has all come to the surface

The veil between our worlds is thin
Haunting inside and outside of me
Walking together, I’m now walking alone
I’m walking alone
