LIGHTS was at MuchMusic yesterday performing and getting the word out about her new album. Two of the performances were on TV and a third one published online only:
LIGHTS released her new album today, The Listening, which is available on iTunes. It’s her first full album, which includes many of the songs previously released and quite a few new ones.
Sadly the acoustic version of The Listening is not on the CD.
In the lead up to the release of her full album, LIGHTS this weekend released a small EP of the first single, and also this video of an acoustic version.
Her full album comes out Sept 22!! Be sure to get it – a preview of all the tracks on her full album can be heard on iTunes.
Lyrics below as posted on her blog:
Please excuse me I’m not thinking clear
It must just be stress
But I likely shouldn’t be here
I’m such a mess
I never really ever know what to say
When I let my emotions get in the way
And I’m just trying to get us on the same page
I always get it better right after wards
When all the wrong impressions are said and heard
How come I can never get the right words
I need to convey, wish I could explain…
The things that I have to work out
I don’t feel right
What has come over me I’m about
To lose my mind
I never really ever know what to say
When I let my emotions get in the way
And I’m just trying to get us on the same page
I always get it better right after wards
When all the wrong impressions are said and heard
How come I can never get the right words
I need to convey, wish I could explain…
Can I let the trees do the talking, can I let the ground do the walking
Can I let the sky fill what’s missing in, can I let my mouth do the
listening
