lyrics

You’ve cried yourself to sleep and cried yourself awake.
You’re thinking maybe you’ve got too much at stake.
In lighter moments this affair is thrilling and fun.
But in the dark you’re a swimming duck, vulnerable, exposed…
Your move is under threat, you can’t stay utterly composed.

We feel brave in the sun.
We throw our hearts around like they’re invincible.
We tell ourselves we’ll never hurt, on principle.
But we’re still lost when we’ve won.

You’ve held yourself together and you’ve held your head high.
The volume of your self-control is hard to quantify.
And with each victory you deserve to let a little go.
But opening up is painful as well as liberating.
It wears you down, the day to day, you’re getting tired of waiting…

We feel brave in the sun.
We throw our hearts around like they’re invincible.
We tell ourselves we’ll never hurt, on principle.
But we’re still lost when we’ve won.

A strong background in classical music has her in good stead, though her music now suggests Jazz and Folk have been powerful influences. Mary’s songs are thoughtful yet frank, exploring human fragility, self-discovery and connection. ... more
