• Lyrics •

Portrait of a life in bloom; pretty now, forgotten soon.
Growing now but quickly fade away.
Fortunate and fancy-free, happy with our company;
Knowing that it’s only for today.

Is it even real?
I don’t trust anything I feel,
but I’m happy to believe it anyway.

Pictures of a perfect you, post ‘em cause you wanted to
own a thing that isn’t really there.
Look around and see your friends; open up and be with them
cause maybe this is all you’re gonna get.

Is it even real?
I don’t trust anything I feel,
but I’m happy to believe it anyway.

Painting of a golden moon; pretty now, forgotten soon.
Move the world and vanish in a day.
Echoes of an ocean song; listen up, it won’t be long;
Loving us with nothing left to say.

Is it even real?
I don’t trust anything I feel,
but I’m happy to believe it anyway.

What a discovery - I'm not sure how I survived this long without Fog Lake. 'I'll Be Around' - so insanely tight... Human Barbie

A truly stunning album that mentally transports you to foggy early morning streets, the pavement wet from recent rains. Dreary, but in a comforting way. Like sitting next to a window during a rainstorm, listening to the drops hit the glass while remaining warm. Never fails to make me feel safe. Crow Yo
