Dressed as the voices that riddle my mind They are the teachers prickling my spine This life feels like a test, push me into a mess The more I resist I break Sit back baby, loosen your grip You’re holding on too hard What if the answer comes with surrender Could you part? Give it up, would you dare? Give it up, dare not to understand Stop fooling yourself there’s no way out And it’s the only safe place around here The only safe place around Covered in blankets still naked and ashamed You love to bring me here to play these awful games Sleeping feels like the best, but then I wake again From the dream when I escape Sit back baby, loosen your grip You’re trying too hard What if the answer comes with surrender Could you part? Give it up, would you dare? Give it up, dare not to understand Stop fooling yourself there’s no way out And it’s the only safe place around here The only safe place around

Sunchild 03:57
Sunchild, sit and rest with me I’m lost And help me find the innocence long gone It’s been torn out and I’m worn out So please show me the way back Oh sweet Sunchild, would you stay here for awhile And promise you’ll never lose that golden smile Darlin’ let’s lay across you warm summer rays Escape the eve of an endless day To get back oh-oh-oh-oh Get back oh-oh-oh-oh Get back oh-oh-oh-oh Get back oh-oh Yet in time the sun will kiss the horizon goodbye Would you still remember me, Sunchild? When I’m lost in the shadows of the moon Take my hand and pull me back through Through ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh

Drifter 04:50
The velvet sky is calling, every night she whispers in my ear “It’s time for you to go my love, sail with the wind my dear” I’ve tried so hard to settle, my brakes are wearing delicately thin Summertime is fading, the velvet sky is calling You say that I’m a fool, an unhinged drifter You run with the wolves while I wander alone Sometimes I wonder if I’ve gone to far Look up and I’m seeing stars I’m seeing stars again, I’m seeing stars I’m seeing stars again, I’m seeing stars A journey down the endless coast I’ll dip my toes in salvation My soul is being hollowed out by routines and people taking I’m headed to a place where my thoughts can rest and never be sould The devil winds are howling the velvet sky is calling You say that I’m a fool, an unhinged drifter You run with the wolves while I wander alone Sometimes I wonder if I’ve gone to far Look up and I’m seeing stars I’m seeing stars again, I’m seeing stars I’m seeing stars again, I’m seeing stars I’m seeing stars again, I’m seeing stars I’m seeing stars again, I’m seeing stars You say that I’m a fool, an unhinged drifter You run with the wolves while I wander alone Sometimes I wonder if I’ve gone to far Look up and I’m seeing stars

Introvertigo 04:11
Stranded in the crowd and overcome by voices I slowly disappear Thought I’d find the secret everybody keeping Yet happiness ain’t near Too tired to pretend Oh what a fool I’ve been I gave it a spin Now I’m headed off the bend And I’d rather be alone Than irritate my soul As the shadow casts a home I take to the cold There you go you see it, everybody breathing Suffocating life A product of disease or maybe just a season I step into the night And reach for a friend Oh what a fool I am I give it a spin But the habit just won’t mend Well I’d rather be alone Than irritate my soul As the shadow casts a home I take to the cold Yeah I’d rather be alone Than irritate my soul As the shadow casts a home I take to the cold I tried my best with no success Naturally spent I need a rest Destined to blow out on my own I think I’ve finally found a home Dried down to the bone Hardened like a stone Me, myself, alone

about

Baybs San Francisco, California

Baybs is the project of San Francisco musician/songwriter Craig Jacobs. With songs created as a way to cope with an anxiety- ridden past, Baybs' music itself delivers a more optimistic posture while still remaining chillingly intimate and impassioned. The resulting sound is an ebb and flow of dreamy folk pop with a flirtatious rhythmic pulse. Debut EP "Introvertigo" out June 11 on Text Me Records. ... more
