Collapse / Expand isn't a concept EP, but it is aptly named. Each of these songs survived multiple, heavy reworks and they landed where they are now. The title also comes from the fact that a lot of things seem to be ending or beginning or growing.
lyrics
The world seems ripe
For taking on a new life
An easing of its gravity
A calming of the skies
The places of old
Are waiting for the new fold
To settle and get comfortable
Someone bumped the shutter speed
I'm having a hard time focusing
Surrounded by lights that I'm not used to noticing
Up in the atmosphere, it's dry of all the yesteryears
There's no going back from here
Don't wash away the past
Just pass it down the line
The sooner you let go
The sooner you can find your child eyes
I was hearing this over and over back in 2013, made me feel validated when I had depression and severe anxiety. You visiting my home country México for the VConcert event right after the album came out and hearing your music live was a dream come true, what are the odds. Thanks Daniel. zeoal
