Hold my breath ’til
I forget time
Stop using sight
Give up on trying
‘Cos my chest’s been tight
For the Longest time
Fool me as many times as you like
Hide behind doors
In extinguished light
Pick the right time
To give me a fright
‘Cos I’ve said I want
Too many times
Fool me as many times as you like
I have always hidden parts of myself out of view
I chose not to see it
In the pit of my stomach I think I always knew
The dark was always waiting
My feet want to move forwards but my eyes don’t tell the truth
And I’m too scared to move on
So just break me apart and rebuild me as something new
I don’t do much changing
I never did much changing
I’ll keep falling into fire
Call me a fool, if I am a fool
I just want to feel less tired
I don’t want to keep breaking in two
Inside I can see a liar
Every mirror I choose
Whispers shame upon you
Scared to admit my heart’s expired
If I say that I do, will it mean that I lose?

I don't know his complete work but up to now, this is my favorite album by Adam Scrimshire. Excellently produced (which is a granted with him), great songs and fantastic guest list. Jazz/nu jazz, soul, electronica, chill beats, cinematic, all those tags given apply. Carsten Pieper
