Cool Days 03:14
I’m in love, feels like I’m winning Weighing up what I’m feeling lately What about all of your cunning I have to say I’m not okay with it I’m in love with I call It’s a foreign light Shining bright I fall for it all One can’t even sight What’s right Cool days Come and stay No pain I’m okay I’m in love a symbol of living Silver veins sore and showing faintly Accolades a sense of glowing Carry false to where my boredom lies Growing pains it’s all the same Dialing inward help Running miles Falsely tries to realise This shoulder resides For your wet eyes Cool days Come and stay No pain I’m okay Pursuit a place where stillness stands Save the date And know the earth will wait Cresent sun and filtered rum Hold your glass up And cheers to a good lesson done Cool days Come and stay No pain I’m okay

Right Way 04:13
You are one type of mind So only speak your kind Categorize each word To match your profile blurb I called your mothers bluff She didn’t like that much A coffee stain in in grooved A mark to show your wound What’s in your hand I’m packing all essential needs To help me breath I’m on your side I might be wrong but it’s the right way Stay in your stride before you’re forced to think nicely Summed up in one small notion stick by your line and don’t cross me Perfectly microwaved The food you didn’t crave A seamless human wealth In plastic cups for health Small talk for larger toys Discuss communal voids Please don’t discredit me Until you’re on your knees What’s in your hand I’m packing all essential needs To help me breath I’m on your side I might be wrong but it’s the right way Stay in your stride before you’re forced to think nicely Summed up in one small notion stick by your line and don’t cross me I’m here to stroke your back Until you relax Your thoughts are safely kept You’ll soon forget I might be wrong you’re in the right I’m in the front you’re in the back seat I’m on your side I might be wrong but it’s the right way Stay in your stride before you’re forced to think nicely Summed up in one small notion stick by your line and don’t cross me Don’t cross me

Insecurity 03:14
Hold my glass I’ve got a trial With a helpless child Listen boy I’ll prove a pointless point For the sake my own drive dramatised I got away with words It’s what I call insecurity It’s all but a ploy to hide my own immaturity For good for worse Rub those eyes I can see your tired Have I crossed the line Hold me tight I’m loosing all sight For the sake of my own drive dramatised I got away with words It’s what I call insecurity It’s all but a ploy to hide my own immaturity For good for worse Trip on soft ground Wince at the sound Big sighs it’s grand Aaah Aaah Indefinable dwindled and distilled Keep crawling down and deep I got away with words It’s what I call insecurity It’s all but a ploy to hide my own immaturity For good for worse

Teenager 03:02
I feel like I’m resorting back to being a teenager I won’t deny it My head’s exploding Catch my breath and soak her depth in so much love You won’t regret it Denote the heart strings Circles round the garden I want to feel a throbbing bee sting Did you die for me Differentiate what’s real You won’t remember It’s just a fuzzy state I feel like I’m resorting back to being a teenager It’s contingent with the traffic lights Four steps back peer through the cracks and hear that pulse It’s a reminder Of your former self Circles round the garden I want to feel a throbbing bee sting Did you die for me Differentiate what’s real You won’t remember It’s just a fuzzy state Come here baby Dip down in my company Headrest headache Warm battle of melodies Ease I feel like I’m resorting back I bathe in pink silk So smooth to touch Radiant florescent dew blue silver dots on my forehead

Dreaming 03:42
I’ve been dreaming of you Every single night Nine to five, nine to five I’ve been inundated In a rolling trance Blending lights Now’s your chance No one dare doubt it Where’s my grip No one cares about it Where’s my grip Come to life Going on to need it Going on to find it Maybe I’m still dreaming Don’t come running back I’ve been trying To make light of it Foreign signs You know that Only human nature Urges overrun Falling thin Moving on How about a statement Forget what I’ve done Falling thin Must stay numb No one dare doubt it Where’s my grip No one cares about it Where’s my grip Come to life Going on to need it Going on to find it Maybe I’m still dreaming Don’t come running back I’ve been trying To make light of it Foreign signs I’ve been falling for simple lie It’s all different now Don’t come running back I’ve been dreaming of you Only deemed it lust Nine to five, nine to five No one dare doubt it Where’s my grip No one cares about it Where’s my grip Come to life Going on to need it Going on to find it Maybe I’m still dreaming Don’t come running back I’ve been falling for simple lie It’s all different now Don’t come running back Going on to need it Going on to find it Maybe I’m still dreaming Don’t come running back I’ve been trying To make light of it Foreign signs You know that

Appease 03:18
Moments like these You will begin to appease Liquid stars You are a speck in fine skin I’m held by strings A brightness silver glistening Incomplete without blue light A steady slow feel of humbling Oh disappearing moonlight All about your fate Coming back over Oh disappearing moonlight All about that gate Opening wider Moments like these Luna decides on the waves Molten glaze You will take on a new phase I’m held by strings A brightness silver glistening In complete without blue light A steady slow feel of humbling Oh disappearing moonlight All about your fate Coming back over Oh disappearing moonlight All about that gate Opening wider Silent silence Blushing in the dead of night Cold sweat when you rise Blood tied Swept mind A common tale of sadness Realising you am I

Angulate 04:22
Holding this trap For a life in your grasp What do I have to say Love and adored What will you score Ferment your idea of me I won’t win this fight Angulate your heart I won’t be your find Interrogate you heart Awakening tempt To wave off your sent Sorry sorry is all that I said Body in sweat Wide eyed in bed Hold back my own strength I won’t win this fight Angulate your heart I won’t be your find Interrogate you heart Hardly wrong Your not my storm I’m all but worn I won’t win this fight Angulate your heart I won’t be your find Interrogate you heart Hardly wrong Your not my storm I’m all but worn Hardly strong I’m always wrong Rule of thumb

Stay here a minute I’m not trying to forget Waste your seconds I fear that I’m too late I hope there was a measurement To get us through this sentiment Just before an existential crisis I’m not alive I must survive I’m under a false interpretation of this wicked world Just about to hit something so heavy Stay here a minute I’m not trying to forget Waste your seconds I fear that I’m too late To heal for you To heal for you Look for out a red eye heart shaped radar To scope out high end affluence Tell me now does that make you feel better I’m not alive I must survive Stay here a minute I’m not trying to forget Waste your seconds I fear that I’m too late To heal for you To heal for you Body ignite I fall for you tonight Body ignite I fall for you tonight Stay here a minute I’m not trying to forget Waste your seconds I fear that I’m too late To heal for you To heal for you

Grey Area 06:06
You’ve got so much to look forward to Hard to realise effort over feud Overhauled with thoughts to fuel wrong sight A hard earned buck to make it all worth while In a grey area Search a pond In a grey area Don’t respond Work it out work it out Slap yourself without convincing doubt Work it out work it out Set yourself with promise and shout No one warned of how things turn about What’s it like to have it all worked out Stand and face the wall and watch the news Overhauled with egger eyes what’s new In a grey area Search a pond In a grey area Don’t respond Work it out work it out Slap yourself without convincing doubt Work it out work it out Set yourself with promise and shout

Eplilogue 03:50
I was fighting Watch my breath Watch my fingers twine A sigh of fleeting I’m a waste of time I am a sifter through Flicker out the dust Stop wait don’t rewind Serve me if you must I’ve fallen near by Your insufferable mind I may wander inside Open windows Feel the scent A gesture of your luck Make it easy Drink perfume Can I leave this room Search the sunken ash Rummaging for eyes Come baby don’t deny Hundred million miles Burning sighting Your invited I’m just sick and tired of fighting What’s my moment Take a step back I’m still learning Give me air I am a conjurer Performing for the wild ode to the ground at last Throw me your red flowers Burning sighting You're invited I’m just sick and tired of fighting What’s my moment Take a step back I’m still learning Give me air Nothing ever lasts Soon your time will pass Nothing ever lasts Soon your time will pass Nothing ever lasts Soon your time will pass

about

Clea is awash with resonant sounds, be it her velvet voice, the tremor of her acoustic guitar, or the melancholic swirl of the Mellotron. At the core of Clea’s music is the melodic pull, each song drawing the listener in to a world of both discovery and recognition. For Clea, writing music usually starts with the guitar, the strummed melody revealing the sentiment. Emerging from Clea’s transitioning into the world of adulthood, Vermillion explores the reconciling of instilled social conditioning with the realisation that we all have control over our own lives, the trick being to relinquish control altogether. Vermillion, the colour of fire, the transformation of unbridled energy, ashes holding knowledge of the fire, a new version of itself. Vermillion is resilient, difficult, rich…words that encapsulate metamorphosis and transition. Together with her partner, musician/producer Alistar Richardson, Clea recorded Vermillion in Ali’s hand built recording studio, idyllically perched over a lily strewn damn on a hundred acres in the Scenic Rim.
