Open your heart with
to find you
04. off “The Mountains inside”
“To Find You”
happens to encapsulate a very vulnerable moment for me. After undergoing a very rough breakup after a long-term relationship, I had completely shelled up to protect myself. I wrote “To Find You” in the midst of an emotional breakdown where the walls started to soften for the first time.
Whispers thread through as the verse begins, recorded through the microphone on my computer, sealing in the raw emotion of the moment. The naive electronic drums and piano put forth a soft, innocent structure that develops into sprouting hope.
Astrological energy of VENUS IN CANCER

Gear in making the song: Ibanez artcore AM93 semi-hollow body guitar, Audio Technica 4033a condenser microphone, Presonus studio channel tube preamplifier, Native Instruments interface and Komplete software, and Ableton Live
To Find You
Oh my lost love, carry me through
Carry me through
The next part
The next part
To to the better part
Oh my memories, cradle me through
Cradle me through
The next part
The next part
To the better part
Oh my lost love
Cradle me through
Oh my tired, tired heart
It still fights, it still fights
To find you
Oh my worn, worn soul
It still fights, it still fights
To find you
Oh my courage, lead me through
Lead me through
The rough part
The rough part
To the better part
Oh my strength, push me through
Push me through
The rough part
The rough part
To the better part
Oh my lost love
Carry me through
Oh my tired, tired heart
It still fights, it still fights
To find you
Oh my worn, worn soul
It still fights, it still fights
To find you
To find you
Oh my tired, tired heart
It still fights, it still fights
To find you
Oh my worn, worn soul
It still fights, it still fights
To find you
To find you
