We were only eighteen And I visibly remember saying yes please But you ran out as I ran in We had ended before we had the chance to begin You said it's getting late, I should've then just walked away 'Cause you didn't give me any time Was that supposed to be your goodbye? Oh Woah oh Oh Woah oh Oh Woah oh Oh Woah oh Oh Woah oh Oh Woah oh But we were only twenty two Senior year of college in your dorm playing the blues You hung your head so I looked over And suddenly you lost that cool composure You said we'd be fine, that should've been another sign 'Cause you didn't give me any time Was that supposed to be your goodbye? Oh Woah oh Oh Woah oh Oh Woah oh Oh Woah oh Oh Woah oh Oh Woah oh But we were only eighteen, and suddenly we're twenty two And you walked out so I moved on And now I know where I belong

California 02:38
You left me for California On a day like today Pulled me aside and said baby I'll warn you When I leave I might stay I cry and I beg, you insist you need to go You say maybe by next year, "You can show me your new home" You left me for California On a day like today Pulled me aside and said baby I'll warn you When I leave I might stay I cry and I beg, you insist you need to go You say maybe by next year, "You can show me your new home"

Up For Air 03:43
It doesn't take one to know one Should've seen it from the first sign You pick me up when I'm down I'll always be by your side I've got a lot of love to give you And I hope that you'll take it from me Something's changed in our dynamic, and now I think All bodies must come up for air But don't be gone too long Your touch, your feel is all I care So love me and I'll be there Eyes light up in the morning Pull you in one last time Then you leave no warning Until I see you later on that night Bodies twisting and turning Hold me closer than ever before We both say this is heaven We know for sure All bodies must come up for air But don't be gone too long Your touch, your feel is all I care So love me and I'll be there We're lying to each other Protecting one another from our own mistakes we've drowned But it doesn't make it easy, inviting heavy breathing So come on and take me down All bodies must come up for air But don't be gone too long Your touch, your feel is all I care So love me and I'll be there

Kings 04:33
Charging towards something greater that we can't see Staring blankly out the window but I see me What do you want from me I don't think that you can see It's bigger than it ever seemed, why should this mean a thing Trying not to come between any matter that I've seen It doesn't feel real anymore and the walls are so loud, so loud The noise is too sound, too sound I just look back at my reflection, seeing the new I say, "Who are you to think of me the way you do" What do you want from me I don't think that you can see It's bigger than it ever seemed, why should this mean a thing Trying not to come between any matter that I've seen It doesn't feel real anymore and the walls are so loud, so loud The noise is too sound, too sound She smiles back and tilts her head, as if to say "Why do you ask this question to me tonight" I think about my answer and return with "You and I, we're the same. You best be kind" What do you want from me I don't think that you can see It's bigger than it ever seemed, why should this mean a thing Trying not to come between any matter that I've seen It doesn't feel real anymore and the walls are so loud, so loud The noise is too sound, too sound The walls are so loud, so loud The walls are so loud, so loud

Tell me a story while it's still dark, my love Until the light comes through Sing me to sleep my darling, my love Just to be with you Ooooh Ooooh ooh ooh Ooooh Ooooh oooh ooh ooh ooh I'll stay with you all night As you hold me near And in the morning when you wake I'll be here Tell me a story while it's still dark, my love Until the light comes through Sing me to sleep my darling, my love Just to be with you I'm floating, I'm falling, ain't nobody I'm calling Your number on my table, roll a couple for you later Hoping that while I'm asleep you lie awake thinking of me Mmmm ohhh I'm speaking in circles while you speak poetic verses I've been dealt my hand and it could have come out worse And then I think maybe we'll see what this little thing will be Maybe you and me, oh baby you and me Tell me a story while it's still dark, my love Until the light comes through Sing me to sleep my darling, my love Just to be with you

Bigkid Chicago, Illinois

A combination of bedroom pop, lofi beats, and classic theater training, Bigkid offers insight to their experience growing up sandwiched between nostalgia and longing for the new. ... more
