Studio Blog - Day One (prelude – kitchen sessions)

Monday 18 August

We are sitting around the kitchen table. It’s all very human. I can see into the backyard and it’s a beautiful day, stunning really. That is helping with the nerves. Dan asks me to get my guitar out, and I’m super nervous. So nervous I hit it on the case while pulling it out and it made a little dint in the front. We are pulling the songs apart and I’m feeling very vulnerable.

After a while…

I start feeing real success and accomplishment with my song Unknown Water; really feel like I’m connecting with the music and in the right direction.

Human condition

To pry away from the human condition

To oppose what’s known the norm

Finally free

Finally me

Finally happy to not conform

The only life worth living, is that which is lived for others - 'Albert Einstein'. 

I’ve got two tickets to nowhere

I’ve got

Two tickets to nowhere

But I would go anywhere

With you

Anywhere but here.

On my left hand side I see a look in your eye I can’t trust

But on my right I see

A shadow, of wanderlust.

So I let myself indulge, in the thought of letting go.

So far from in control, but you promise to help me grow.

But you don’t. and you won’t.

But what you don’t know, Is I will take this

Far beyond your throw

I will move this, I will shake this

Further than you could imagine, further than you’ll ever know

Leave you, where you tried to leave me.

I will make it on my own.

Singular, but not alone.

I’ve got

Two tickets to nowhere

But I can go anywhere

Without you

Truth

I run the conversation through my head

Over and over

What is truth?

Truth is your perception

What if your perception is clouded?

With greys and blues and a deep orange

Does it still make it truth?

Loopy

Crazy eyes pre-photo-shoot today! Thanks for the love Courier Mail!

Winter

And soon the winter came

And the tree would stand the cold

Never to grow hungry, never to grow old

With shoots of life, gone dead

It's really not a mystery

You shape your present up.

And the rest, well that's just history

Working hard on this music... Can't wait to share it! Here's some inspiration I found at GoMA on the weekend, really hit the spot. 

Love, Ella Fence x
