"Beneath It Is Darkness" - 2026 Tiny Desk Contest Submission

This is a song I wrote that was inspired by a Virginia Woolf poem. Here I'm joined by the wonderful Adrian Bourgeois playing some beautiful lead work on the 12 string and singing some sweet harmonies! Lyrics: There's all these places I haven't seen It all seems so limitless Like the horizon in front of me I could summit through those plains Push aside a thick leather curtain And see the stroke of a lighthouse But life's sinking down Beneath it is darkness I wanna get out And rise to the surface My hands are working overtime On something dexterous with my needles Can't seem to catch a break My stitches ride just like those waves They could carry me anywhere Spit me out then swallow me whole I feel life sinking down Beneath it is darkness I wanna get out And rise to the surface Unfathomably deep Like the ocean that I swim in Can't let my childish apparitions Drag me even further 'Cause they're all sinking down Into the darkness I wanna stay out And rise up to the surface
