about

Performed and Recorded at the Nevada Theater
Written in India by Maren while on a solo 5 month journey, this song is all about acceptance and embracing the adventure that is ahead. Multi rhythmic represents the lightheartedness and the weight of self growth. It was written with a backdrop of the Mediterranean sea, and an indian jungle song and far of Rag singing of a nearby classically trained traditional singer who practiced outside each night. His melody informed some of the song.
Arranged by Maren, Justin and Eliyahu

lyrics

these sea salt locks dangle wild wild like the child inside my heart
tempted to tangle magic spells with the fear of the unknown parts
take it off, bathe it clean, a lover or a dream or time time times illusion
and i am all that i want to be if i can only learn to love the confusion

and we go down down down to the ocean side wash me clean today
down down down to the sea to give it up in this way
La da da da

in the dark of the soul i open my eyes to see these tangles worked loose undone
release to open up this hesitant smile, spicy tingle stays on the lips & tongue
the biggest mama knows when to let you float and when to throw you around
sometimes she’s calm warm arms wrapped round, other times a fierce storm to drown

and i go down down down to the oceanside to give it all away
and i go down down down to the ocean to let these pieces float away yay, la da da da

your sorrows the perceptions the assumptions the stories we spin inside our heads
and for how sweet the creativity, we must let go or be sunk like lead
please sing to me sweet love i give it up, give it up to you
& i will let go into what i dont know so i can live & love more true

and we go down down down to the oceanside to give it all away
and we go down down down to the seaside to let these pieces float away
and we go down down down - to the sea to the sea, give it up, give up today
downx3 to the ocean side to give it up, give it u-p, give it up, give it up this way...
