Lizard Love
"Fear and doubt, I feel it spread"
A song about a love once lost. On the surface, its about pining after someone once the relationship has ended, but it's really more about how if the person truly meant something to you, there's always that lingering flame, never to be doused.
The arpeggiated synth in the chorus was added way after the song had been finalised. On its own, it sounded so out of place, but on a whim I decided to add it in. I'm extremely glad it's there, it really gives the chorus such a huge lift. It was a rare occasion where I literally jumped out of my chair with excitement upon hearing it all together.
My second music video, this will forever remain one of my proudest moments. Walking the streets of Glasgow as a 6'4" lizard man was weird for me, never mind the passers-by! Fun fact: I had to keep re-applying black make-up around my eyes throughout the entire shoot. By the end of the 10 hour day, I could barely see and the next morning I was in a serious amount of pain. How many other people would nearly blind themselves in the name of art? Totally worth it.
“This is for the best” you said
Fear and doubt, I feel it spread
Through my flesh and through my bones
This is more than sticks and stones
Of all the twists life can throw
Breaking through the status quo, because
Even though it went this way
There’s always time for you in my day
C.
It’s always you that I dream of
Yeah, I bet you don’t, I bet you don’t at all
It’s always you that I dream of
Yeah, I want you to know, I want you to know
This chain will never break
O’er hills and far away
This is where I thought we’d play
But I guess this lizard love of mine
Has shed its skin with me entwined
