kenwaylights Aly is a friend of mine, and I've been a fan of her music since we were in high school. With powerhouse vocals, kickass instrumentation and meaningful lyrics, her debut EP is sure to take your breath away.

(Honestly, picking my favourite track is hard -- it's a tie between "Losing Sight," which means a lot to me personally, and "High Hopes & Long Shots," which sounds like it belongs in a sweet coming-of-age dramedy!) Favorite track: Losing Sight.

It's been so long since I have seen you last Where have you been all of this time? Why don't you just move in a little closer? Tensions high but I know how to relieve it You know I feel now sorrow Don't try to fight it, you know you want me Just wait until the music stops (Chorus) Oh, take me higher Hate me if you want to but I know you just want to Hold me closer You know you can't resist the taste of my sinister kiss You say you've got a girlfriend I don't really give a shit She can't do what I do for you I bet she don't even know that you're here Oh, my dear You know you want me, just start the fire But don't wait until the music stops (Chorus) Take me higher Hold me closer It's all the same if you play my game Don't look back honey You're with me baby (Chorus) x4

Best of Me 03:18
(Chorus) Yeah! You underestimated me Yeah! You thought you got the best of me Yeah! You thought you knew your shit 'Bout where I'm going, who I'm gunna be What is life without the unexpected? Is there a reason why the typical is so damn appealing? I've got a plan that will take me anywhere Just as long as I don't look back I won't let you stop me I won't let you hold me back Who are you to say I need a second choice? 'Cause this is my life (Chorus) When tomorrow seems against the odds I push down, fight off anything in my way I live for the impossible I'm stronger than unstoppable I could have chose the simple life, so proper and probable But who are you to say I'm not a rose with thorns? 'Cause this is who I am (Chorus) You underestimated me Yeah, you underestimated me Yeah! You underestimated me Yeah! You thought you got the best of me (Chorus) Yeah! You underestimated me

I see it every time he's there And when he's not here I still think about it Oh, I have done worse but I still hold my grudge I can't stop, I can't stop, I can't stop I've made mistakes worse of my own So why can't I get past what he's out grown? (Chorus) You see right through me, Know me better than myself I just hold onto foolish mistakes You have come in with high hopes and long shots Oh, I believe so help me Get past the past And teach me how to bathe in the moonlight What's unforgiven is not what you have done It's the selfish bitter burning inside me I wish it wasn't always all or nothing with me Oh, I am burning, drowning in self pity Though you always seam to save me, This time this is not your responsibility (Chorus) All I have shown you is how fast I fall I'm sorry it's all I know how to do I don't want to scare you I just want to love you But it's not so easy with these walls I have built Break them down (Chorus)

I'm Crazy 03:28
Somebody hand me a pen and some paper I need to write a song about a certain asshole He told me he loved me Then I broke his heart and he couldn't believe I was the first girl to deny him To take every little piece of him and throw it all away I was the last girl to believe him To let him hold me in his arms while he thought of his next prey (Chorus) Lock me up into a mental institution For thinking that you're worthless Put me on a ton of different medication To cope with what you've become You and your dickhead syndrome Somebody throw me my guitar and a guitar pick So I can sing about all your imperfections It's your stupidity, your idiocracy You will never learn my ways You're not the first boy that I destroyed Fall under my spell and I will tear your heart to shreds The thought that you tried to complete me Watch me laugh, watch me cry You are now the reason why I'm fucking crazy (Chorus) x2
5.
I'm slipping into uncertainty I wish that you would come and save me, save me Cause I need you here It's not so often that you hear me say that Falling for you was never easy But I knew you were worth it, so I refused to forfeit You are the only one I see (Chorus) I wasn't thinking clear when I told you That I think we should just move on I'm so glad that you found me I don't know what I would have done cause You take my pain away You take my breath away You are someone I could stay with forever But only if you want the same I'm trying not to let my fears Run my thoughts because I love you so, dear But every time you look away I question if I'm enough to make you stay (Chorus) x3

Losing Sight 03:50
I still have the tissues from that day on my floor You know that I feel the same But you knew that wouldn't change But still I feel your arms around me Cause you tell me that you still love me Where do I go if you say you just need time? Take me back, or let me go cause I... (Chorus) Can't find myself and now I'm losing sight Of what I planned for my life You came around and showed me just how much I didn't know That I can't trust anyone that says love Or anyone that tries to get close You fucked me up, what have I got to lose Cause I already lost you Tonight I'll pretend you're still mine Cause I snuck out for you, hope that's enough this time Everyone's tellin' me to stay away from you But I can't help the way that I feel There's so much wrong, but still I'll stay here I'll try to find another you but you're one of a kind So I'll wait for you, or instead just lose my mind (Chorus) x2
