about

A song steeped in hazy synths and whispered melodies, 'Out of Reach' relates to anyone longing for what they can't have, constantly wanting and waiting for more. A mediation on modernity, excess and loneliness carried by an otherworldly melody.

lyrics

Honey, are you doing alright?
Spent all your time by the poolside waiting for
All the flowers to bloom
Said summer couldn’t come too soon

But now that the sun’s arrived
You said it’s too hot outside
Can’t wait and escape to somewhere you
Won’t ever change, and you’ll do whatever it takes

Someday you’ll find what you're looking for
Until then keep avoiding dealing with
How you feel, gotta face it maybe

Honey, are you doing alright?
Cooped up all day at your luxury estate
Hoping that it might snow
But you don’t even like the cold

You always want what’s just out of reach
Can't hardly face reality
But now that you've got your wish, what’s next on the list?
Can’t wait and escape to somewhere you
Won’t ever change, and you’ll do whatever it'll take

Someday you’ll find what you're looking for
Until then keep avoiding dealing with
How you feel, gotta face it maybe
