hello hello! i'm lyrah. i'm a writer/producer/singer based in LA. im sooo excited for this drop. this has been my favorite song these last few months. and i can't wait for you to finally hear it. i wrote this when I was living with my parents a year into the pandemic. i was making music out of their garage (so literally my own garage band lol). i made this one night when i exhausted listening to all my go-to comfort songs. it started as me in the cold, spidery garage on my uku. the chorus was the first thing i wrote: "hold me if i lose my mind catatonic all the time erased promise i won't be like this forever i can see a day." this song felt like a breakthrough therapy session. my mental health was in the absolute gutter, but some days you have to accept that and know that it won't be like that forever. a few months ago i revisited this song, rewrote some pieces of it and the song was suddenly there. im now coming up on a year of having started this song. at the time of writing it, it felt more like a song to my boyfriend and wanting that comfort from him. now in listening back, it feels like a song to my future self. ive needed it this past week more than ever and it hits like a completely new song. music is funny like that. hope it does something for you <3
