about

Our new song “Moon Lit” is about waking up to the fact that you might just be chasing the nostalgia of imaginary summer love. You might be catching yourself dreaming of lustful, humid, summer nights that keep you in a perpetual loop of hypothetical excitement for the unknowns just around the bend.

But this time something feels different. There's a slow unraveling reality that these kinds of nights are now filling you with emptiness and maybe don’t serve you as well as they used to. I just remember being really hung up on writing the lyrics “Always searching for the ghost of you before,” and not knowing if I meant the ghost of the person I thought I was dating or chasing the person I used to be who felt so comfortable in all the chaos that summer can bring.

lyrics

Feeling blue in the wake
of a Moon lit summer night

Am I wasting my time?

You know it.
Gets hard not to show it

Is it late or early?
always leaving on time

You always look so nervous
As if you're new to goodbyes

Tonight's alive
and I've been waiting
surprised to find
her mind is changing

gets hard to be
the one not faking
always searching for the ghost of the you before

How come you look so nervous?
Who you fooling this time?

If you got to break a good man's heart
Maybe save it for the next guy

Tonight's alive
and I’ve been waiting
Surprise surprise
that I’m mistaken

Gets hard to be
the one not crazy

Always searching for the ghost of the you before

I’ve been searching for the ghost of the you before

Oooh you know it. It's hard not to show it

Ooooh its over. It's my fault I chose her.
