about

Stockholm is the final track of my debut EP, a warped love and is a total crowd stopper. I worked with a progressive rock band, & was inspired by the style of Evanescence and Sleep Token for this one. It is led with a distorted electric guitar, hard-hitting drums and haunting synth sounds combined with gut-wrenching lyrics that tell the heart-breaking story of someone trapped in a toxic relationship, but one they don't want to escape from - driven home by the line "i'd rather be fighting than lonely”.

lyrics

My dear, you could throw me in a cell
And tell me the world was ending.
Go into detail
Of just how you’d end it for me.
I would still stay
With no ropes around my hands
Just tell me you love me and
I’m chained to your command

I love
The way you’re mean and voice your hate
And your touch
The way you yell and spit my name
It’s toxic
But I’m used to it being this way
So I’ll find the beauty in calling you baby

I’m losing my mind over you
When I say I’m scared it’s the truth
But I know that this is all my fault
Cause I’d rather be, rather be
Fighting than lonely

Oh, oh

Poison is icy cold and in your veins
You’re screaming things out people usually wouldn’t say
And I’m over my head
In blood that I’ve bled
In time that I’ve spent
But I’d do it again
You could leave me dead and

I’d still love
The way you’re mean and voice your hate
And your touch
The way you yell and spit my name
It’s toxic
But I’m used to it being this way
So I’ll find the beauty in calling you baby

I’m losing my mind over you
When I say I’m scared it’s the truth
But I know that this is all my fault
Cause I’d rather be, rather be
Fighting than lonely

You know I’d take all the pain away from you
And you know I’d take all the pain away
Away, away
I’d go away
I’d leave the planet
If you meant it when you said
Leave,
I’d die without you,
Please, please

Oh, oh
I’m losing my mind over you
When I say I’m scared it’s the truth
But I know that this is all my fault
Cause I’d rather be, rather be
Fighting than lonely
