9. Pisces Sun

Liner Notes

Finally, a love song! To break up the monotony of regret and nostalgia, I hereby drop this song about my wonderful partner, about regret and nostalgia. It sticks to the theme of this project while also, like, being positive and stuff.

I wouldn't be here without her, and even when I'm using music as a means of therapy, I have to stick in a song for her. She deserves a billion of 'em.

This song in particular is about our history, and future. We met long before we got together, and would you believe me when I tell you that I was an insensitive Teenage Boy once upon a time? We were best friends, then we weren't, then I would hurt her, and then make up, and all of this toxic stuff that lead to us not talking for years.

Thankfully, I grew, and I learned, and while I am still a work in progress, there was a Rom-Com-esque realization where discovered that "The Thing That You Want Has Been Right Beside You The Whole Time". She deserves my love and devotion for being my best friend through everything, and for being the sweetest, kindest, weirdest, funniest person I've evet met.

I guess it's a statement on being able to change and be better. I'll keep writing songs for her and jamming them into projects that may not make sense, because even despite my Sad Boi ways, she makes me the happiest and best version of myself.

Anyways, if you survived that sickly sweetness, I hope you enjoy the song, and I hope that my disgusting Pisces energy isn't too glaringly obvious. But it is. I can't help it.

Lyrics

Verse 1:
Parking lots, and
Wishing-You Well's,
You came back into my life and
I just could tell that

I'd wanna keep you
All to myself.
If only I were
Somebody else.

I crawled before I
Knew how to run.
I was caught up in the haze
Of the Pisces Sun, and

I said some things
I really regret,
But I'd do it all
Over again.

Pre-Chorus 1:
You know I was scared
Of hurting your heart?
You gave me those Pick-Up Lines,
And I gave you scars,

But Through the Glass,
and through it all,
You knew who I was.

Chorus:
I'll drive us to
The edge of the coast,
The ocean disappearing
When I'm holding you close.

Baby, will you
Run away with me tonight?
It's better when
You're by my said.

Chase me down
The hotel halls,
I'll catch you if your
Body ever chooses to fall.

So, maybe we can
Take it all the way tonight?
We'll find some places
We can hide.

Verse 2:
I fell so hard
Down onto my knees,
You picked me up and brushed me off,
And you made me see,

That there's some things
I never wanna give up.
There's a better person
I can become.

So make your plans,
And put me down as a "Yes".
Put your hands into my own,
And your head on my chest.

I wanna let you know
That you're perfect.
I thought that you should know
You deserve this.

Pre-Chorus 2:
I never believed
In being in love,
But you tossed me the keys,
And then I locked up my cuffs.

You're everything, babe,
You're all that I want,
So get in the car.

Chorus:
I'll drive us to
The edge of the coast,
The ocean disappearing
When I'm holding you close.

Baby, will you
Run away with me tonight?
It's better when
You're by my said.

Chase me down
The hotel halls,
I'll catch you if your
Body ever chooses to fall.

So, maybe we can
Take it all the way tonight?
We'll find some places
We can hide.

Bridge:
You take my breath away,
Now you're all I dream about.
The perfect hideaway will always be just

You and I,
In a world of our own.
Where you are mine,
And I am yours.

I'll drive us to
The edge of the coast,
The ocean disappearing
When I'm holding you close.

Baby, will you
Run away with me tonight?
It's better when
You're by my said.

Chase me down
The hotel halls,
I'll catch you if your
Body ever chooses to fall.

So, maybe we can
Take it all the way tonight?

So, as a Pisces Sun myself, I of course had to give this a listen, of course (also, I love your stuff in general, so there's that, too.) We really can't help it, it's true!! Lol. But, seriously, I love this. It's very sexy and romantic. Especially love that first couplet in the chorus. Love the doubled vocals and the piano is really lovely in this.

I don't know what pisces means but I like this song! It's very sweet (and tinged with sadness). I really like the bass line, it adds a lot of depth! The melody on the bridge is gorgeous, I adore the high notes. Really great work!

This is the perfect combination of moving and memorable! I love the vocal harmonies. I love how you include a mix of your fears for this relationship and your hopes to improve as a person and everything in between
