Take away the days that aren’t worth spending Catch a little breath before you go Drag the strength through the depth of pulses in your chest Lost souls sticking together Ooooh Take off the shirt you wore today Keep it close so nothing wears off Run your hands softly through my hair And be here remembering today Summer nights simulate the daytime Capturing our breaths beneath the sheets Feel the pulses through the morning beating in your chest Warm nights sticking together Summer night’s Lost souls Lost souls Sticking together Take away the days The days that aren’t worth spending Catch a little breath Before you go Before you go

Like the thunder clears the air Shake it up to go somewhere Like the thunder clears the air (running with the blue moon) Like the ripples on the pond Telling me that a change would come Like the ripples on the pond (running with the blue moon) Running with the blue moon Finally found my way out of the woods Running with the blue moon Finally found my way - I knew I would Shattered and broken (I) carry the shards I found my own way Under the stars Made it this far Hearing river’s quiet call Searching for a waterfall Hearing river’s quiet call Running with the blue moon Finally found my way out of the woods Running with the blue moon Finally found my way - I knew I would Shattered and broken (I) carry the shards I found my own way Under the stars Made it this far Courage unbroken Bearing my scars I found my own way Under the stars Made it this far Like the birds in the wind Going high above the clouds Never knew how to fly If at first they didn’t fall Steady wings, were build, through the storm and so Nothing will keep them down, now
3.
Mind into the mire Haunting sirens wail I’m starting to tire Battling to prevail In these waters For so long now It kinda feels like home All alone Chocking Soaking Find new hope - catch it Fleeting as it is Build it strong - keep it Fragile as it is Find new hope - catch it Fleeting as it is Build it strong - keep it Keep it Deep inside there’s a fire Yearning for release How do I keep this pyre From dying in the breeze? Summer rain Is bound to wash me Turn my flame into smoke All alone Watching Wishing Find new hope - catch it Fleeting as it is Build it strong - keep it Fragile as it is
4.
Under the sun The road is long How far did I walk I don’t even know Tired and torn I’m moving on ‘Cause I can’t give in Gotta keep it up Would I do it all again you ask If I would have known I would be put to the test like that Oh yeah Anything better than Would I do it all again you ask If I would have known I would be pushed to the edge liked that Oh yeah Anything better than Turning my back Under the sun Digging the dirt Tryna make it work Tryna make it worth it Living the dream But, up close it feels Like my ache is growing Living in the promised land Would I do it all again you ask If I would have known I would be put to the test like that Oh yeah Anything better than Would I do it all again you ask If I would have known I would be pushed to the edge liked that Oh yeah Anything better than - turning my back Would I do it all again you ask If I would have known I would be put to the test like that Oh yeah Anything better than turning my back
5.
Engulfed in desperation While your train sped down the tracks Atlas load rests on my back I took the long way home - in hope My mind would find respite Can my heart prevail this fight One day the wood will be touched Tell me the words of truth Wandering around the carousel Will it turn again The universe is sprung and bound By a myriad wandering souls Your longing has eternal hold I’ve lost you once before - I know This heart I must now mend Until the time we meet again One day the wood will be touched Tell me the words of truth Wandering around the carousel Will it turn again The sea has used its salt To bleach away Coloured boats as they Drift astray Like the taste of thoughts We left behind Until we meet again One day the wood will be touched Tell me the words of truth Longing to see with new eyes Colours that I once knew Tell me the words of truth
6.
Circle round the date But nothing left to celebrate You’re somewhere far away I’m learning to accept my fate No sweet surprise (no one here, no more cheer) Just long goodbyes (no one here) Gone, gone Gone into my past Lost cause Dreaming of bringing it back So long Your gift is all wrapped up My heart in knots, a bow on top Deflated old balloons The sweetest years, on you marooned No candlelight (no one here, no more cheer) Just long goodbyes (no one here) Gone, gone Gone into my past Lost cause Dreaming of bringing it back So long No sweet surprise (no one here, no more cheer) Just long goodbyes (no one here) Gone, gone Gone into my past Lost cause Dreaming of bringing it back So long
7.
No one revealed the trail - I had to find it When fear becomes a shelter (Must fight it) I’m moving into the light Amber morning comes Settles on the peaks For just a while Nothing’s out of reach If you dare, if you dare To dream I linger longer in it - I let it lie Wish I could stay forever (Take my time) The world can keep on spinning Weaved in its web A wrestle never-ending (I’m out of breath) I’m moving into the light Amber morning comes Settles on the peaks For just a while Nothing’s out of reach If you dare, if you dare To dream Moving into the light
8.
Moving through a field of all That I have come to notice Wordlessly it speaks to me Syllables of red and green Moving forth among the boughs That I have come to notice Tenderly it comforts me Swallow comes Circles the tree Moving through a field of all That I have come to notice Wordlessly it speaks to me Syllables of red and green Moving through Chewing on the flesh of thoughts Swallowing shards of copper Running out into the open Arms spread wide for No good reason Churned up by the unspoken Syllables devouring me Moving through a field of all That I have come to notice Wordlessly it speaks to me Syllables devouring me Moving through
9.
Flowers in my bed Another one came to share I’ve been in your head Not really going nowhere Everything was said Lines on our hands laid bare Your eyes cried red But I couldn’t answer your prayers If you wanna go If you wanna go If you wanna go Nowhere If I wanna go If I wanna go If I wanna go Nowhere Is it really fair If I stutter to dare Lingering despair Not really going nowhere Circling affairs Wasting myself out there But flowers in my hair Remind me of myself somewhere If you wanna go If you wanna go If you wanna go Somewhere If I wanna go If I wanna go If I wanna go Somewhere If you wanna go If you wanna go If you wanna go Ahead If I wanna go If I wanna go If I wanna go If you wanna go If you wanna go If you wanna go Ahead If I wanna go If I wanna go If I wanna go Ahead
10.
If you’re ever coming back to me I’ll be waiting by the almond tree Spring flows forever in my memory As time slows down by the almond tree Oohh If you’re ever coming back to me I’ll be waiting by the almond tree You sing forever in my memory As time slows down by the almond tree Ohhh
11.
Floating through space Gravity is fading away I'm no longer afraid Of falling Back into place Lost track of time Why does slowing down Make me feel like I'm falling behind I've tried But I'm changing my mind I'm changing my mind And I know It may seem like We no longer stand, On the same side Maybe we will find It's alright Trailing the stars Constellations breaking apart now I’m lost in the dark I wonder Am I back at the start? Holding my breath Memories I thought I’d abandoned Are pulling me back I’m left With a storm in my head But I know, it may seem like We no longer stand, on the safe side Maybe we will find It's alright
12.
Why do I feel so lonely All the time Can’t somebody hold me Just for a while ’Til it passes alright Same reason no crime Same reason no crime ’Til it passes alright Bittersweet taste of double stout I’m staying in, ‘cause falling out Of love is hard without a doubt They say I’m better off without You I’ve heard the wise words I was told To trick my mind out of this hold To fill my sails up with new hope And move along before I’m (old) Ooh They say I’m better off without But standing tall and feeling proud I say I’m lost, I can’t let go It’s wrong I know, but Why do I feel so lonely All the time Can’t somebody hold me Just for a while ’Til it passes alright Same reason no crime Same reason no crime ’Til it passes alright Ooh
13.
I see with a surgeon’s precision Changing form but no disguise A knowing ever showing Dependence, reluctant to share The lies you tell Make me unwell Instead I move in my own time Inhale whatever comes to us Giving space to the blue A knowing ever showing Independent Not reluctant to share I disregard the sceptics salve Leaving me intermittently surprised Enough to keep me roaming wild Are numbers only fictional figures? The lies you tell Make me unwell Instead I move in my own time Numbers are only fictional figures That should be redrawn daily As they will not age or weigh heavily Numbers are only fictional figures
14.
Give me another day, I Find me another place, I’m Heavy here And as the rain caresses my good old fears I ask myself “How am I still standing?” Tell me another lie, I Show me another sign, I’m Drowning here And as the wind blows away my bitter tears Pull me out, pull me out Save me from myself Birds and feathers Flying by Calling me to follow their song Sing it Scream it Scream it out loud
15.
You were running circles in the garden Even though you were told you couldn’t fly Nothing could stop you from trying harder And to anyone who’d ask you’d lie You were climbing every tree in sight To grow and look over red rooftops No call convinced you to go back inside Cause you were busy chasing raindrops Rollerblading through the streets of your hometown Every Sunday afternoon Walking barefoot in the grass You were not afraid to lose Sometimes we need patience Sometimes we need luck So keep on falling over Keep on getting up

about

Once in a lifetime, you’ll experience a pandemic. Once in a blue moon, you’ll have a chance to visit a secluded island. Once on a red Thursday, as the local saying goes, you’ll be in a situation with a group of complete strangers and the sparks of musical creation will fly forth. This album is the product of just such a gathering of musicians from a multitude of backgrounds, journeys, skills and preferences.

Songwriters, producers, and session musicians from ten countries were invited to gather in Cyprus to test their limits, trust strangers, and allow their artistry to merge in a songwriting programme called Eurotoire. Their initial week-long meeting beginning began on a Thursday in June at Studio eleven63 in the island’s capital of Nicosia and blossomed into fifteen demos. After another two writing and recording sessions in July and September, the tracks bloomed into the Eurotoire team members’ fully-fledged album. Now they’re using On A Red Thursday to spread the word about the power of surrendering to creative instinct and collaborating with the unknown.
