Ivy House 03:27
I heard your voice, kill the dark in my head The sound of your voice, the sweet nothings you’ve said I saw you there under forest trees, my dear We both lived there, a house covered in ivy, my darling Memories flooding my head of days back then I’m tired of thinking these same thoughts again A shimmering skyline that I saw in your eyes I felt so safe wrapped in your arms A series of moments replaying inside my head Reminders of beautiful days A series of moments that repeat inside my head Reminders of better days

Daffodils 03:07
Hold my hand, walk with me, through the daffodils In your house, in your room, countless hours, flowers bloom Devotion plays on repeat, “Home Again” be here with him I know it’s hard when I get sad, but you’re always there to bring me back You bring me back This is the place we both go This time is different than before Oh, my love Hold my hand, walk with me, through the daffodils You always bring me back

Girl Gloom 03:47
Do you really want to change? It’s only a matter of when And it’s so easy for you to transgress So I lied, so I lied, so I said it’s okay Never mind, never mind my face when I say I said it’s okay Do you really want to know? I force-fed your fake words into my mouth Don’t touch me, don’t look at me I feel at night it creeps the thought of you and me Don’t touch me, don’t look at me

I’m on holiday and I’ve been dying to come talk to you The stories to be said, a perfect portrait of past gatherings we’ve had But do you really know just where you will go? I hope the next will be kinder than the last You haven’t changed a bit A kid at heart making light of everyone and everything After all that’s your attempt at being fun You weren’t ready yet, you’ve always had the worst luck in the world I wasn’t ready yet, now I am left behind But do you really know just where you will go? I hope the next will be kinder than the last When I drift away at night into my sleep, would you please tell me I’d like to believe that it was painless, please Just tell me it was easy

Blur 04:02
I tried to forget the last time when we met I see you when you smile, it’s so big and bright, it makes me mad And when you’re not around, I feel so much better about myself So hear me when I say it’s meant for us to be this way And for a brief moment I thought you were heaven, you were heaven We grew up in the city of flowers, you walked me home You took the part of me that was happy I’d like to say it’s all a blur, but I remember it like yesterday And for a brief moment I thought you were heaven, you were heaven
6.
Waking Life 05:52
Stay up half the night from the stings of waking life You hadn’t known just how hard it would be, and do you really have to change completely? And it’s often nights like these where you hide under your sheets with racing thoughts And you don’t want to talk, I wouldn’t understand at all and I’m sorry I don’t want to assume how it feels to be so far Forgoing how you were and now what you are (Away from yourself, I might not be waiting for you) With the way that it went How you thought such bad thoughts, well it consumed me Are you trying to fool everybody in the room by being so nice? I don’t want to assume how it feels to be so far (Away from yourself, revisions of you) Forgoing how you were and now what you are (Away from yourself, turning back into what you knew) Becoming what it is and leaving how it was (Away from yourself, I might not be waiting for you)

Slow 04:12
Hating myself is tiring and I’m not who I want to be I get it, I get it, it’s all just slow I give up and watch you go But come and find me at the end She said “come and find me at the end” Anxiety draws near and I feel truly alone But you’ll never know, it’s all just slow She said “come and find me at the end” I said “come and find me at the end” It’s all just slow once you let go
8.
Eulogy 01:48
To think of you in parts won’t do me good, so instead I’ll remember you whole
9.
I can’t say I’ll get better, I don’t know if I can be well But in my dreams, I know myself so well You make me lovely and you held me like a baby I was so small, the bad in me couldn’t be seen, absent from all reality Hold me close, don’t let go, stay in dreams To live a life so weak takes its toll, darling I don’t wish to see the day This warmth is too real, I thought you’d never be mine Hold me close, don’t let go, stay in dreams (Lightly and holy, I thought you’d never be mine)

about

Since it’s genesis (2015), Center of Heaven was meant to be our first full-length project, but it’s theme didn’t emerge until sometime last year after having experienced the tragic loss of some of our beloved family members. This album was meant to cope with that loss, and express the grief that is often too hard to talk about. It is dedicated to those who are no longer here, who we miss most, and who have left a great impact on our lives forever.

As always, thank you for listening and we hope you enjoy.

Gabriela and Sebastian

Dedicated to the memory of Eduardo and Cuca Moncada Franco, and Robert and Julian Campa.
