Anchor

I can see it in your eyes.
You're nowhere to be found.
You're speaking words
in awkward rhythms
I can hear your heart from here.
Uneven beats from your obsession.
Forced to the point
Where it starts to blur.
Getting high off of pain.
Settle with the suffering.
Not moving from where you are.
Yet you're still burning from afar.
This is where it's wearing off.
Where it all starts fading out.
Dulling all the senses
Disappear into the glow.
Getting high off of pain.
Settling with the suffering.
Not moving from where you are.
And burning from afar.
Getting high off of pain.
Easing into the relief.
Heavy as a stone
Sinking like the anchor in my heart.

Head Over Water

I feel the smell
of cigarettes and summer
The sun has just shown up
and so have you
But I still keep my head over water
Don’t worry about what's to come
Don’t worry about what’s to come
Don’t worry about what’s to come
Believe in me
I feel the warmth
of summer in the air
You keep your body close
and outshine the sun
Just like a picture perfect
in solid harmony
We left our old lives back home
and fell in love with summer
But I still keep my head over water

Nothing Constant
03:38

Let me see what you can be
with all your stars aligned
This growing pain beneath your skin
consumes what you have been
Again, don’t turn your heart from the sun
Again, don’t turn your heart from the sun
Again…
Light reveals the bitter future
This certainty of constant failure
consumes what you've become.
Again, don’t turn your heart from the sun
Again, don’t turn your heart from the sun
Again…

Bruised Knees
03:28
|

Another night passes me by
Another pile of hours lost
Liquor hits me hard and leaves
My body's feeling like a wreck
Despite my years of practice
I always fade into myself
I just want to sleep so calm
And let the night carry me away
Nothing makes me feel
Nothing makes me feel as close to nothing
As the sound of my own breath
crashing on concrete walls
The winds carry me home to you
Deep breaths to keep me close to the ground
A second try at getting things right
With bruised knees
With bruised thoughts
Coloured by your light again

On the Edge of Leaving Drammen, Norway
After years of sitting on half-finished songs, Ruben Jonas Sandstrand brought along Hakon Roholt and they started the duo On
the Edge of Leaving.
Together they finished the songs and recorded them. The result is the EP "Bits & Pieces".
Their path onward is not obvious, they keep an open mind and let the music show their way.
