Waters

Coming Up Roses

This mini-album touches on themes that come with the experience of entering adolescence, whether it is love (“Sky”), anger and disappointment (“Lies”), despair (“Waters”) or loss (“Fall”). Waters is an exploration of these different emotions and a journey through the rollercoaster ride that is growing up. This is reflected in both the lyrical and sonic aspects of the music: Sky combines sweet, melodic guitars with lyrics about running away and the ideals of a ‘happily ever after’. Meanwhile, the title track Waters contrasts harsh, dense noise sections and sparse middle sections as the protagonist despondently contemplates over her future.
