Truth or Dare
from Chapter One - a collection of 3 songs by Fridolijn

Billy Stewart
Fridolijn’s old soul but young spirit remains winsome, lucid, a joy in her magical, quotidian, celestial style. She masterfully shares from the depths of her heart, mind and soul, all which she would hold close but here bravely lays bare. Her lyrics lovely, a piece of her she cautiously but sincerely proclaims. The music is airy, a wisp, a lovely, bewitching siren’s song upon which her vocals softly soar, carrying we listeners on a new journey to the vaulted heavens of her melodic ilk.
Favorite track: Truth or Dare.

about
This is a song I've been holding close to my heart for a few years. I wrote it during a strange time where I felt like my life was divided in halves. Together / alone. Here / there. It feels quite exposed to give you an insight into my mind during a time where I felt vulnerable and confused. This song is for those who have ever fallen into the trap of letting the mind decide on matters of the heart.
lyrics
And so the story goes
the walls you'd seemed to melt like snow
are pulled back up and I withdraw
I've come to know it well
here on the inside of my shell
where the air is different, emptier
as I watch you go
a hazy, fairytale-like glow
pulls up like a blanket, slow
Gold in the air, so rare
Make worthwhile all we bare
Truth or dare, nothing to spare
What do we care.
You take along a piece of me
everytime you leave
leaving me a little less complete
every corner in this town
reminds me of you somehow
though I've lived here ages before we'd ever met
I track the traces that you left
I think of words I left unsaid
the image blurs in my head
Gold in the air, so rare
Make worthwhile all we bare
Truth or dare, nothing to spare
What do we care.
the walls you'd seemed to melt like snow
are pulled back up and I withdraw
I've come to know it well
here on the inside of my shell
where the air is different, emptier
as I watch you go
a hazy, fairytale-like glow
pulls up like a blanket, slow
Gold in the air, so rare
Make worthwhile all we bare
Truth or dare, nothing to spare
What do we care.
You take along a piece of me
everytime you leave
leaving me a little less complete
every corner in this town
reminds me of you somehow
though I've lived here ages before we'd ever met
I track the traces that you left
I think of words I left unsaid
the image blurs in my head
Gold in the air, so rare
Make worthwhile all we bare
Truth or dare, nothing to spare
What do we care.

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.
