lyrics

They can’t erase the obvious
They can’t wipe away our consciousness
Maybe they are still louder than the softest of us
But maybe being soft is what makes us worthy of trust
So if they keep pushing

Backwards
Backwards
We will push
Forward
Forward

I don’t know how to raise my voice
Lately it seems so hard to act accordingly
To the principles we put upon ourselves
So when everything is already to loud
I just want to shut everything out
But I won’t sweep this truth under the rug
Because I’m the one who’s standing on it
It’s already uncomfortable enough
I’m sick and tired of this feeling
How my feet are growing roots
My body feels loose
I’m not sure of many things
But I know that we can’t stay here
It won’t do us no good if we only look

Backwards
Backwards
We will push
Forward
Forward

No, I don’t know how to go on from here
No, I don’t want to go back to sleep
And stop caring just cause I can turn off TV

Carried by Bogat's clear & extraordinary voice, her music drifts between soul, alternative RnB & indie. Synthesizers & voices, spoken word & grooving beats interweave with a playful lightness. ... more
