Sometimes I look up at the sky
And I realise all the birds are flying by
In the same direction, and I’m wondering where
They all get their information when I’m struggling to find my own feet
Sometimes I look down at the ground
And my breath begins to fade and my heart starts to pound
And I feel a weight is lifted, and it takes a few moments
When I’m drifting up through the clouds and away
I might seem like a dreamer
But I’d rather be the one drinking bottles in the sun
And spending countless hours questioning everything I know
For one split second of clarity and proof that I’m on the right road
Sometimes I have tears in my eyes
When I think of all the goodness, all the people in my life
And it’s never been a problem finding places I could belong
I just wish that I could split myself into a million little pieces
And be everywhere all the time
Tonight, I’ll look up at the stars
And I’ll see a few I recognise, and I’ll know that you and I are staring
At the same constellations, and no matter what
It’ll all be fine
Every now and then I get a little bit self conscious
So I wipe the smile off my face and I try to hide the obvious
But I’d like to take this moment to be grateful.
I might seem like a dreamer
But I’d rather be the one drinking bottles in the sun
And spending countless hours questioning everything I know
For one split second of clarity and proof that I’m on the right road

I bought the physical copy of this demo, #2/50, the night before All Tomorrow's Shoeys. I bought it again almost two years later when Jen was in a bind. In between those purchases I bought it on vinyl from Craigos. What I'm trying to say is that I've bought this fucking thing three times now and I'd probably buy it again, so you know it's good, aye!

The second EP from Northern Irish singer-songwriter Bea Stewart runs from gentle folk to pillowy pop ballads, all perfectly executed. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 15, 2024
