Evermore

Another year has passed by.

A long, bittersweet one.

Watching the world fall apart each month.

With people dying, and lives changing.

It hasn't been easy.

But we all made it this far.

And we are still fighting on.

Some highlights from the year:

- Australia wildfires, BLM movements & riots, SG and US elections, COVID19 and the damn circuit breaker that impacted everyone.

- Changing companies at least 3-4 times. It wasn't in my control and hasn't been easy at all. In fact it may still be changing next year.

- The ups and downs of a being in a committed relationship. It is all about being honest and understanding to ourselves and each other. And I am thankful we are always working things out together.

- That maybe 'family' isn't everything after all. Especially a toxic one. Which is why I am committed to settling down with my partner in the future. Not in SG of course.

- Had a fall in the toilet, and injured my wrist. Took a while to recover. Not long after, I survived a car accident. Nobody got badly injured.. but it was quite an experience. Took me a while to get over that trauma. I still have it, but it has been getting much better over time. 

- My constant battle with my diet and weight, and my insecurities. I have started dieting and a constant gym routine for about 3 months now, and I have never felt healthier. Gonna keep this up of course.

- Not to mention the amount of new music released this year. Wow, it has been fantastic. From my idols JoJo & Hayley Williams to the amazing Olafur Arnalds that has been constantly inspiring and healing me. My ears have been blessed.

- Finished recording an acoustic version of my debut EP. Which I'll be releasing early next year. It will be more intimate and raw. Looking forward to more collaborations :)

Yeap. Pretty much sums it up.

Today I watched the fireworks from my partner's room.

It was short.

But sweet and simple.

And me feel contented with what I have.

I just want a simple, and cozy life.

And that will be my evermore.

Love, Eran.

Gray November
I've been down since July
Motion capture
Put me in a bad light

I replay my footsteps on each stepping stone
Trying to find the one where I went wrong
Writing letters
Addressed to the fire

And I was catching my breath
Staring out an open window
Catching my death
And I couldn't be sure
I had a feeling so peculiar
That this pain would be for
Evermore

Hey December
Guess I'm feeling unmoored
Can't remember
What I used to fight for

I rewind the tape but all it does is pause
On the very moment all was lost
Sending signals
To be double crossed

And I was catching my breath
Barefoot in the wildest winter
Catching my death
And I couldn't be sure
I had a feeling so peculiar
That this pain would be for
Evermore
(Evermore)

Can't not think of all the cost
And the things that will be lost
Oh, can we just get a pause?
To be certain we'll be tall again
Whether weather be the frost
Or the violence of the dog days
I'm on waves, out being tossed
Is there a line that I could just go cross?

And when I was shipwrecked (Can't think of all the cost)
I thought of you (All the things that will be lost now)
In the cracks of light (Can we just get a pause?)
I dreamed of you (To be certain we'll be tall again)
(If you think of all the costs)
It was real enough (Whether weather be the frost)
To get me through (Or the violence of the dog days)
(Out on waves being tossed)
I swear (Is there a line that we could just go cross?)
You were there

And I was catching my breath
Floors of a cabin creaking under my step
And I couldn't be sure
I had a feeling so peculiar
This pain wouldn't be for
Evermore
Evermore
Evermore
This pain wouldn't be for evermore
Evermore
