  • Rough Trade Edition by Ren Aldridge

    [Ren] I’m putting together a Rough Trade Edition, which collects together some of the in-betweens and afterthoughts from the record. I’ve been writing it at the same time as physically cutting and stitching the album artwork - writing in and out of the lyrics - using cutting and stitching as a way of thinking about stuff like community, building solidarity, surviving precarity, resisting perfectionism, gender and craft, emotional labour and the environment. It’s kind of like how I speak in between songs on stage, but in writing. Right now it's only available to preorder via Bandcamp

about

I struggled to put lyrics to this track for a really long time, but following a week of spectacularly shit mental health in the studio, I made it into a motivational sonic kick up the arse and back into action. I personally find a lot of the discourse around mental health a bit claustrophobic and babying, and that contributes to me feeling worse. Independence, activity and purposefulness are what I need to keep my shit together. I wrote this song for myself - if its useful for other people that’s cool, but everyone’s different, and I really want to underline that.

lyrics

This works for me
It might not for you

Come on
Pull it back together
No one sails smooth
In erratic weather
Come on
Get your shit together
No one sails smooth
In erratic weather

Sometimes we have to go back to basics
Sometimes we have to ask ourselves difficult questions
Sometimes we have to fucking face it

You might have to wane
Before you wax again
