about

lifeline is a track eva and i made in 2021. i made the instrumental in around august-september time, as a part of a larger project. i sent the track to eva around the same time, we then continuously worked on it until around early 2022. its a track we're both super proud of and one that means a lot to us. i hope ya dig <3

from Evangeline:

"Lifeline is about my experience with coming out as trans to my extended family, and being myself in a country town full of small-minded people. It's super hard to tell something to someone who you know won't understand, and may never want to talk to you again, but I have to give it a shot, because there's no way I'll live with never having said it"

lyrics

Look at me sideways like you don’t understand
I hated the thought of ever telling you
Do you get what I’m saying? Should I say it again?
Cause I’m not sure which one of us is more confused

I’m not the person that you used to know
So, stop calling me by his name now
I’m not the person you knew long ago
If you’re doing this on purpose then I wanna go home

Tried to tell you then I realised it was all a game
I knew it for so long, but didn’t try to pass the blame
Guess someone had to be the first to take it all away
And I don’t blame you, I don’t blame you
I was asking for your help and still nobody came
The song we wrote together will never sound quite the same
Now you look at me like I’m just another stranger’s face
And I don’t blame you, but I want to

You were my lifeline
For so long
And I just realised the monitor shut off

I scream and cry at night
For so long
Because all I’m familiar will soon be gone
