Better Off 03:48
I wish you knew how I was doing All the ways that I'm proving That I'm better off I hope you know I'm good despite you All the lies I had to fight through To know I'm better off than you I wouldn't go as far to say I'm fine They say all wounds heal with time But know for now I'm better off I'm better off I'm better off You know it's true I'm better off than you I'm better off I'm better off I'm better off You know it's true I'm better off than you I didn't know if I could make it Now I know that time was wasted Cause I'm better off than you I hope you know that I'm shining And if you don't here's me reminding That I'm better off than you I wouldn't go as far to say I'm fine They say all wounds heal with time But know for now I'm better off I'm better off I'm better off You know it's true I'm better off than you I'm better off I'm better off I'm better off You know it's true All the ways I know I'm fine without you Wouldn't all fit on a page small font single lines too No, no they won't I'm better off I'm better off I'm better off I'm better off You know It's true I'm better off I'm better off I'm better off You know It's true

Atone 03:14
It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood We say our hellos like we know we should But underneath I think we know This relationship is just for show Yeah it's all for show Riding around in your white SUVs You don't care about anything Oh no, you're deserving Situation goes from bad to worse Suddenly you think you're cursed And you want to know Will you atone for me Yeah you ask me now Will you atone for me If you're really never wrong then why am I right Why is your bark as bad as your bite When underneath I think we know The stunts you pull are just for show Yeah they're all for show Riding around in your white SUVs You don't care about anything Oh no, you're deserving Situation goes from bad to worse Suddenly you think you're cursed And you want to know Will you atone for me Yeah you ask me now Will you atone for me Atone for me Atone for me Will you atone for me Atone for me Atone for me Atone for me Will you atone for me Atone for me And if you ask me now That'll be a no from me

Audience 03:54
Driving on to County Line I know I said I was doing just fine But being here makes me think of you And all the things you put me through I was doing fine I was doing fine I've got no need to reminisce I can't think about this without consequence And at one time I was on the fence But now I'm sure I'm not your audience I'm not your audience No Drive until I see the sun When I left I was on the run And I was doing fine I was doing fine I've got no need to reminisce I can't think about this without consequence And at one time I was on the fence But now I'm sure I'm not your audience I'm not your audience No I'm not your audience I'm not your audience I'm not your audience I'm not your audience No I'm not your audience I'm not your audience I'm not your audience I'm not your audience No And at one time I was on the fence But now I'm sure I'm your audience And I was doing fine But maybe I'm not fine

Whisper 03:24
Whisper Gentler in my ear So I know you're here Make it clear Whisper How you feel Let me know it's real Sometimes I wonder if what we have is real Or if I'm all in my feels Sometimes I wonder if it's too good to be true The way that you and me do Oh I love that I'm with you Whisper Whisper Whisper Whisper Whisper Whisper Whisper Whisper Whisper In my ear

about

Growing up as a classical pianist, Laurlyn’s favorite pieces to play were Chopin Nocturnes. They were melodic, emotive, and allowed for free interpretation and expression. Woven throughout this moody EP are melancholy melodies and experimental sounds used to similarly set the scene of a Nocturne or “night music.”
