about

'This is the first song that Thijs and I composed together. We had sat down to jam for the first time, and with Thijs being classically trained I was a bit self-conscious about my lack of formal musical knowledge and really had no idea what to play…but then I remembered I had this old song idea that I had always wanted to hear with piano. I started playing the intro chords and Thijs just straight away came up with a piano line not far removed from what you hear in the final recording! It just worked. It was such a beautiful experience hearing the song come to life, as the lyrics and the basic chord structure had been with me for about 15 years. We kept playing for hours that night and it was such an enjoyable experience for both of us, working through the different parts of this song, tying various ideas together that it really forged the beginning of our musical relationship. 6 months later we had composed enough material for a full album!'

lyrics

Forever fallen into the belief that no one understands
When all along I was just right here in your hands

Well we’re twisted, we’re faded, we’ve messed around
Forever tangled in a cloud of almost
And this life really has us both in a strangle hold
But our feelings grow stronger, not get old
So to battle scars we both make this toast
...We both make this toast

And I never want to see you with anyone
Even if you think you’re happy, I’ll know you’re not
I’ll know you’re not

Because I’m the only one that really connects with you
And understands just what this life has put you through,
I was there before the start of this rot...
Never! Not Anyone
Never! Not Anyone
Never! Not Anyone
Never! Not Anyone!
