about

This is the conception song of the album and first lyrical song I've ever made under this alias. For years I've wanted to write about how fluid and ever changing my life's been, and how major events which made me homeless (quite literally transient) and the people that led to that or helped me survive changed who I am as a person into the woman I am today.

lyrics

I tried my hardest to get through to you
All the reasons I've been gone
I wasn't sure if you could make it up
But now I know I can go on

And though it feels like I've been drifting through
I'm stronger now and I give thanks to you
'Cause you pushed me when I thought I would fall
Now I tell myself how to get through it all

Hold the line, keep on moving
You've come this far so you can't stop now
Work it out, flow like water
Don't forget all things are transient

You just don't understand how much it means
You don't know you set me free
Feels like I could give you the universe
It wouldn't be enough to me

And though it feels like I've been drifting through
I'm stronger now and I give thanks to you
'Cause you pushed me when I thought I would fall
Now I tell myself how to get through it all

Hold the line, keep on moving
You've come this far so you can't stop now
Work it out, flow like water
Don't forget all things are transient

It's kinda funny how things go
You might sink under but you know
That it's day to day and you will carry on for everybody
I wish the very best for you

And though it feels like I've been drifting through
I'm stronger now and I give thanks to you
'Cause you pushed me when I thought I would fall
Now I tell myself how to get through it all

Hold the line, keep on moving
You've come this far so you can't stop now
Work it out, flow like water
Don't forget all things are transient
