This is a new song entitled “Everything Made Sense With You Around.” I wrote it 2 or 3 years ago during the most stressful moment of finals week. My guitar is my best friend during stressful times, and I often turn to songwriting during panic attacks. This was one of those instances. Will and I are hoping to release this song soon, but more details will be announced at a later time.

Twin Cities currently is giving our music away for free at twincitiesmusic.bandcamp.com. If you like what you hear, we’d love for you to download more!

Lyrics:
The walls are caving in
and time is slowing down
my mind is wandering
and I can’t make a sound
so I’m pulling out my hair
and pacing on my breaks
always staring at the stairs
unsure what’s real and what’s fake

but everything made sense with you around

80 hour weeks
not sleeping for days
I come home to an empty house
and reread every page
while drinking box wine
and seeing your eyes
in everything I own
in this place you once called home

but everything made sense with you around

when you’re away
I’m sleeping on the couch
mixing fiction and reality
never leaving the house
not getting too much done
drinking away rationality

but everything made sense with you around
