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

I've been taken for a ride on a lonely road
But I've nowhere to go
I'm seeing pretty things at the edge of the sky
That no one else knows

Now I'm flying all across the sky
I'm flying all across the sky

Don't turn your back on a revelation
You've just gotta glide
Learn how to master your expectations
And that on that ride

Now you're flying all across the sky
You're flying all across the sky
Don't you cry your pretty little eyes
There's a world outside your mind

Whispers in your head become a thunderous roar
But it's all too much
You can't take anymore
All is not lost
Just look to the sky
Take a deep breath
And let out a sigh
Passion building
You're taking flight

Now you're flying all across the sky
You're flying all across the sky
Don't you cry your pretty little eyes
There's a world outside your mind
