About this album

I can't believe I spent 3 years recording this album (very inconsistently!).

It's been the strangest time - this was originally going to be an album about daydreaming and feeling alone while stuck in my house during lockdown, but as time progressed I learnt more about myself and started to actually understand these feelings. While themes of daydreaming are still ever present throughout, I eventually realised quite late into the process that I'm actually just singing about autism, ADHD, and gender dysphoria. That's right, I've got the full wombo combo, and maybe I'll speak about it more one day in the future.

Tracks 8, 9, and 10 are more lighthearted fun, and have much less to do with the overarching theme, but they're songs I'm still really proud of and would love for you to hear. Fun fact, back in 2018 on a livestream I once said I'd eventually make a proper song about cats, and here we finally are!


All lyrics, instruments, vocals, production by TomboFry (now moonfloof).

I had some help and inspiration with the lyrics on tracks 8-11, from someone who goes by Papaya. He didn't want any credit but he's a wonderful person and I couldn't just not!

Lyrics

Dear diary,
I think I might be dreaming again.
I spent the afternoon jumping on cotton clouds and speaking to my demons.
They tell me the world down there is not real, that I am just a misguided being with no sense of direction.

But there are people I love, people I care about. Are they not real? That feels real.

I want to see the colours in the trees and in the sky, feel the rain on my skin. Is that so much to ask for?

Can you help me?
Please?
Can somebody help me?
I feel like I'm drifting off again.
I feel like I'm...
