LONG-FORM SINGLES

AMONG THE LIVING

Dedicated to those who are no longer with us. May they rest in peace.

This song is an elegy. An elegy is a poem of serious reflection, typically a lament for the dead. In writing this song I tried to call upon compassion and loving kindness toward the living as well, those left to mourn. Those who’s hearts are broken, their souls floating somewhere outside of their bodies trying to unite with their recently passed loved ones. Frozen with grief, struggling to find meaning in anything. Carrying a heavy burden and not knowing where to turn in order to find some relief.

With as much loss as people all over the world have experienced [since the pandemic], I wanted to write a tribute to the people who have died and to pass on some words of comfort to their families. I am hoping this song can spread some healing to people who are in pain. To help them feel a little better. To be reminded that they are not alone. To feel embraced and held in a safe space. I hope for their burden to be lifted even if it is just for the 13 minutes it takes to listen to this song.
