Cosmo Sheldrake - Run

Listen to the new album Eye To The Ear here: https://found.ee/eyetotheear I first wrote this while composing music for a Cirque de Soleil show just before the pandemic. The lockdowns brought a swift end to the project and Cirque de Soleil went temporarily bankrupt so I decided to rework it into its current form. It is a song about trying to figure out when best to run away from something and when to come back to it. I often find myself running away from unfinished music or unfinished projects, sometimes taking a break from them is very thing that was needed and can give rise to a burst of inspiration. But sometimes the impulse to run is the last thing I need to do. There is no easy answer to when to do which. Lyrics: I’ll run away I ran away I’ll run away again And then I’ll come back home I tried to stay I tried to say I’ll try again and then I’ll be alone I tried again To make amends To clear the way To blink and say the words again I’m over the walls Out the door On my way Because the wind won’t wait for me My music, shows/tour dates, merch, socials and more can be found here https://linktr.ee/cosmosheldrake
