Rising Tide 03:30
lyrics
buy track
Taking time To find the perfect moment Consumed by the rising tide Of conflicting emotions If this is how it feels Falling out of love Tell yourself it's OK To want a new start If this is how it feels Falling out of love Tell yourself it's OK To break a heart A single finger Won't cover the sun When revealing rays of truth Shine on everyone If this is how it feels Falling out of love Tell yourself it's OK To want a new start If this is how it feels Falling out of love Tell yourself it's OK To break a heart

Anyone 02:58
lyrics

Labouring endlessly You could be anyone You could be anyone Anyone Chasing relentlessly Under the illusion there is a destination Delaying gratification But there is no compensation Life rolls on Part of the mass delusion Lost in the same confusion It won't be long 'til we're all singing the same song

Follow Me 04:05

Oh, wont you come Oh, won't you follow me and I will make you see A world fun of fun Full of wonder, you'll be free If you just follow me Don't run just hide behind the lies you tell yourself just to feel alive Indulge, the world revolves around Shrinking and sinking into me Oh won't you come Because now I'm not going to let you go And you won't dare let go of me You and I survive off the hungers that ache inside And now they're taunting me Don't run just hide behind the lies you tell yourself just to feel alive Indulge, the world revolves around Shrinking and sinking into me I will never be free I will never be free Just got to keep shrinking I will never be free I will never be free Just got to keep shrinking So they won't see what lies beneath So they won't see what lies beneath So they won't see what lies beneath So they won't see Oh no, I didn't mean to go this far She told me I would be admired And I would see all of my wildest dreams come true I thought that I would be just fine But I sold my soul just for a ride Straight down And now I'm sinking Don't run just hide (behind the lies) Everything will be alright (to feel alive) If we just keep shrinking If we just keep shrinking If we just keep shrinking I will never be free I will never be free Just got to keep shrinking I will never be free I will never be free Just got to keep shrinking So they won't see what lies beneath I will never be free I will never be free Just got to keep shrinking So they won't see what lies beneath So they won't see what lies beneath So they won't see what lies beneath So they won't see

Giving It Up 04:23
lyrics
buy track
If I could change Don't you know I would Just rearrange myself To be understood So many times I have tried Still I seem to fold Keep losing my days to the nights Just to forget it all But giving it up is so hard But giving it up is so hard When I slip I fall right back to the start Back to giving it up Giving it up Giving it up Giving it up It's easy to say Maybe someday but not today Just keep sliding from moment to moment Watching the hours waste away Isn't it strange How hard we fight denying our reality? If tomorrow never comes I'll never know who I could've been Who I could've been But giving it up is so hard But giving it up is so hard When I slip I fall right back to the start Back to giving it up Giving it up Giving it up Giving it up

about

Future State's debut 5 track EP captivates the listener with trip-hop beats and haunting vocals, creating a sombre reflection of 2020.

“The concept for the Rising Tide EP came to us through the current isolation we are all experiencing. Isolation creates the opportunity for self-reflection and that has been our focus. It is no coincidence that our selected tracks express the themes we are all feeling during this time of loneliness; reminiscing on lost love, uselessness, addiction and the human condition”

“Whilst the themes we are exploring are quite dark we hope the journey of the EP leaves the listener feeling seen and ultimately uplifted with the final track ‘Giving it Up”
