Lost in the Trees - All Alone in an Empty Room

Anytime genres clash I get excited.

Mixing classical music with rock & roll isn’t anything new, but I’ve never heard it done quite like this.

Lost in the Trees new album has been my new obsession for the past few weeks now and I’m sure will stay that way at least until next summer.

The songs are written from that diaphanous place between heartbreak and new life, consistently wavering from despair to hopefulness.

Sadness reigns through most the lyric, but it is the music that reminds us… the future just might be better, or o.k. at least, or even (if you’re lucky)… good.

I could especially relate to “For Leah and Chloe”

Pains made me who I am

But I don’t want your pity please

I’ve learned more than I could share

I healed my heart

On a walk in the dark

And the loves made me who I am

Don’t be afraid you’ve hurt me

I’m stronger than you think

I healed my heart

Let in glow in the dark

And through this life

I’ve learned to love

What I’ve become

I’ve learned to love

What I’ve become
