about

Ease Your Mind" is a siren song from one's vices to the inflicted. It was initially inspired on a day I was feeling particularly tantalized by the desire to self harm. I was curious about the dichotomy of being irrationally drawn to self harm despite the consequences. It's a pattern I'm all too familiar with. Something that causes you pain somehow repeatedly tricks you with promises of salvation and ease into acting against your own best interest. The narrative of the song became much more broad as I explored the idea of giving a voice to a vice.

lyrics

EASE YOUR MIND
What do you want
Fortune fame and virtue
What do you need
I promise not to hurt you
Where do you go when you die
A golden carriage in the sky
Or with cloven foot beasts below
But now it don’t matter though
You’re flesh makes you weak
Like castles in the sand
Put your faith in me
Put your heart in my hands
Let me ease your mind
So what will it be
Sweet revenge and vengeance
I promise to protect you
From all the consequences
Put your lips on that bottle
Push the pedal to the floor
Put your finger on that trigger
Take it all then take more
Your anger makes you weak
Like a fragile little lamb
I’ll give you the powers that be
Put your soul in my hands
Let me ease your mind

“Melo has created a guitar-heavy, alt album that holds true to her singer-songwriter roots.” – Culture Collide
