Lyrics:
It was the last of our shadow
Disperse the cloud covering
It was the last of our shadow
Found a release today
It’s been five years never too late
Because there’s nothing left to say
I’m done with hiding
Scared to let my life be seen
The guilt was choking me
It was the last of our shadow
Loose the hold it had on me
It was the last of our shadow
Found a release today
It’s been five years never too late
Because there’s nothing left to say
Carried this too long
Trying to make your landing soft
I tried anyway
Felt only fair to you
I lose myself in all I do
I came to find a way back to me
Only wanted
Lay it on the line for you
But there’s nothing left to say
Okay
***
Nona on the track:
This song revolves around the ending of a years-long relationship. It was a “bad” breakup, because it wasn’t mutual and because I perhaps didn’t go about it in the most gentle of ways. I felt self-conscious in my small community and spent too many years dampening my presence, not playing music out, hiding my joy and new love for fear of hurting my ex. Some communication finally happened and it was like a cloud lifted and I just felt totally free to be myself and exist in the world. I realized how I had been totally dogged by these feelings of guilt and shame and I needed to move on from the black hole of ruminating I had been living in. I wrote this in a day and never looked back.
Universally healing-thanks Nona for everything and for this; and thanks Cole and Shawna Lee; and thanks Andrew Broder
Keep Going Always 🕯️
Dark Dark Dark, the choir and Nona’s other work never cease to amaze me. Healing, yes. I think this artist is reaching new artistic heights. It’s exciting to hear this new music.
Thanks Nona for the gift of your voice. I really admire you. -Nicky k Liminal
