lyrics
One moment I stood strong
a feather, bravely up against the wind
One washy attempt
A wave, reasoning the current
Sensible resist
overruled by the blink of an eye
Lasted for one memorable sigh
These poisonous leaves
taste too good not to touch
maybe it'll be fine
if we don't take too much?
I'd rather risk to fall
than to not jump at all
'cause for something that's supposed to be wrong
this feels way too right
Up against the tide
It's easy to resign
My head on your chest
I confess
my heart in your hands
being with you it's crystal clear
All there is is here
All there is is now
All I have is this
All that counts
All there is is here
All there is is now
All I have is this
All guards down
a feather, bravely up against the wind
One washy attempt
A wave, reasoning the current
Sensible resist
overruled by the blink of an eye
Lasted for one memorable sigh
These poisonous leaves
taste too good not to touch
maybe it'll be fine
if we don't take too much?
I'd rather risk to fall
than to not jump at all
'cause for something that's supposed to be wrong
this feels way too right
Up against the tide
It's easy to resign
My head on your chest
I confess
my heart in your hands
being with you it's crystal clear
All there is is here
All there is is now
All I have is this
All that counts
All there is is here
All there is is now
All I have is this
All guards down

about
Fridolijn Amsterdam, Netherlands
Amsterdam based singer and songwriter Fridolijn aims to find pockets of intimacy and connection in a fast and disconnected
world. Her music comes in soft layers of swirling synthesizers, acoustic folk guitars, ambient electronics and distant drums, wrapping around you like a blanket.
She brings a dreamy style uniquely her own.

Julien Baker is an acquired taste - assuming of course you’ve acquired great taste in singer songwriters… beautiful, devastating, honest, insightful… I’ve not heard a single song of hers that hasn’t left me in absolute awe.

Stunningly beautiful songs wrought with pedal steel and nylon-string guitar that cast mesmerizing melodic shapes.
