about

Vacancy is the moody first release of the forthcoming EP 'Carter Creek Choir'. Written in a secluded cabin beside the Carter Creek during a 2018 period of self isolation, the song and EP alike explore themes of self, spirituality, solitude and longing.

lyrics

I wish you were here, my love
staring at the empty space above
as above below, I sleep
doors and windows open, room beside me

I wish you were here, my friend
none of us could know it'd be the end
feel it all the time, you see
I'm a neon sign lit 'vacancy'

I wish you were here, my kin
playing in our minds like we were kids
History that binds us still
separated by our time and skill

I wish you were here, my love
staring at the empty space above
I wish you could feel my touch
tell me, could it ever be enough?

How could you leave?
Doesn't it haunt your memory?
Storms will come that stir the sea
I'm a neon sign lit 'vacancy'
