Growing Daisies

But you never came back to me to burst in hundred of doves at my window That’s where we used to sit and stare to smile growing summer roses All I can do is walk and wait to feel the things she arouses will she follow ? Will we be afraid to kiss even if the seeds would turn into daisies

Please tuck me in and lay me down With an iris in broken space and empty time With butterflies and kind candles so I could never fade alone (with you)

For Keeps

Tell me Tell me I belong somewhere Tell me I am still the man I’m looking for, still the man I’m looking to be

Don’t tell Don’t tell it’s still out there It lies within the promise of a better life a promise you won’t be able to keep

Know that Know that I’ve been petrified Not that I’ve been scared of you But all this time we’ve been playing for keeps

What is love ? Was it this mystery ? Was it this tiny life we’ve been leading, this awful joke we’ve been bragging about ?

Constantly surrounded by memories

Most of the time I'm surrounded by memories. I turned 20 a few days ago, and everything seems to fade away as time fly. When I go into places where I used to spend time, where important things happened, a lot of memories come to my mind. A lot of feelings too. I feel like all the good has passed in my life.

Today I have talked about it with a good friend of mine, and he said "if you tell people that the best period of their life will last at least one year, on 80 years of living, they'll kill themselves".

He was joking of course but at least he's not completely wrong.

"The best moment of my life lasted one month and a half. We were recording Had To Happen with Julien, and when we were done with the session, at the end of the day, we used to go to his place, eat something, and play heroes of the Storm together in his bed. At the end of the night, when morning came, we would have slept two or three hours. But we were good to go back to the studio and repeat the same routine. But man, what a routine. It was the best time of my last and it lasted one month and a half".

Normandy

I went back to Normandy, in a very quiet place. Today, I went to the beach for a walk, in the end of the day. It was very calm, and I watched a couple drinking wine. They looked peaceful.

Tommorow my best friend will come for five days, with a bag of weed, and we’ll try to finish the record we’ve been working on. It’s a very close friend. We’ve been to many places together, one time I nearly lost him but happily he’s here on his two feets. Life is hard sometimes.

I think I’ll start to read Dostoïevski, the idiot maybe.

I need to find a tascam cassette recorder to record my next album. I still have zero inspiration. I need to write lyrics again. I feel like I’ve lost that precious ability that I used to have: transferring my feelings into lyrics. But in the same way I know that I am afraid to try. I think that I’m afraid to realise that I’ve lost my ability to write songs. Which I haven’t. I know it.

God, there’s someone that needs therapy. It’s me. Hello.

Ps: my first album is still available on my bandcamp. It’s been out for almost a year and as no one is listening to it, it would mean the world if you could check it out, or even buy it, or even jam to it, I don’t know, anything related to it. But let me know if you make any move, I kind of like to know people’s opinion about my work.

Take care, Heartapes.

American Beauty post

Well, American Beauty is such an awesome film. Now it's in my top 3. Fuck.

Emo music post

Lately I’ve been listening to Mineral like a lot, it’s so good, very good band. I love the song &serenading it’s very very very touching.

And…

I TOOK MY TICKETS FOR MOGWAI AND DAMIEN RICE OMG.

THIS. WILL. BE. A. GOOD. YEAR.

And I’m preparing the release of my EP, my dear girlfriend is making the cover and it should be a good year. It will be some reclusive introspective folk music, with love as a major theme.

I think it’s the best songs I ever wrote.

This will (surely) be a good year

Bye,

Heartapes.

So I went to my grandparents place in the North of the country, I took my guitar with me, and I’m definitely working on new stuff, new sounds. I may start to write the lyrics as soon as possible but I have to know what I must talk about in the next album.

Anyway, my girlfriend is already working on the cover of my next ep, I hope I could release it around October for my birthday.

These times I started to lose confidence into my music. I have been losing confidence for a while now but I didn’t realize it completely and I think it’s kind of sad because I’ve always been very very confident with my music and what I can create. I guess there’s times where you feel bad. I sometimes feel bad but never like this.

Anyway I hope this tumblr diary will help me find the inspiration, and if it can lead people to my music, I guess it would be kind of -very very cool.

Ps: my album is still available on Bandcamp and YouTube. Go check the fuck out of it.

Why did I feel so bad today ? Oh god I saw her face It goes away today, for a day Oh god I saw her face It goes away, for a day

My heart is blue, he’s true Ocean is waiting for you She’s so blue ‘Cause I found a shelter, ‘Cause I found a shelter

Why did I feel so tired today ? Oh god you let me down It goes away, today, for a day Oh god you let me down It goes away for a day

My heart is blue, he’s true Ocean is waiting for you She’s so blue ‘Cause i found a shelter, ‘Cause i found a shelter, ‘Cause I found a shelter Yeah I found a shelter

[thelosthearttapes]

Hello everyone ! So I've uploaded my album in it's entirety on YouTube. It's theme is the ocean, the sea. When I wrote the majority of these songs, it was a big influence for me, I was and I'm still drawned to it. I hope you could appreciate it ! Take a look at it ! Bye, Heartapes.

08/07/17

So last night I went to one of my best friend's place, Étienne, in the suburbs of Paris. We recorded my album in his studio, in his house during one year, from March 2015 to May 2016. His studio was a mess because he moved some stuff out of the room, but it still reminded me of that period where we were recording some tracks for the album. It was a very good time and I hope I will return to it when my next album will be finished. Anyway, I will send to him my last ep and he'll do the mastering of it. Ps: my last album is still available, go check it out on Bandcamp.

[thelosthearttapes]

A few days ago I bought my first guitar in three years, it’s incredible because it’s a lowden and I couldn’t imagine that I would get one that soon. (Here’s a picture of the lady)

It’s an amazing guitar and since that I’m trapped in an endless circle where I can’t write a decent tune, hope she will bring me some fresh new songs.

My first album is still available, so if you like poetry, the ocean, romantism and introverted folk music, go listen to it on Bandcamp, Spotify and shit :

Bye, Heartapes !

Ps: I will try to write daily here but I don’t have anything to say specifically on my daily life. Maybe I could see this Tumblr as a diary…

[thelosthearttapes]

Just finished recording heartapes’s last EP.

So lately I’ve been feeling like I wouldn’t write a decent tune anymore. 

But two days ago I achieved to re-record one song on the next heartapes’s ep, and I guess it’s ready now. I just have to do the artwork, the cover, the mastering, all the post recording stuff. 

These five songs are the best I ever wrote in my life. I can’t wait to share it with you all.
