about

Twiin is an alternative love song, an intimate portrayal of friendship and rivalry inspired by a painting of two sisters on my home studio wall.

The production is purposefully sparse with emphasis on the vocal, giving stronger credence to the eerie melodies, bittersweet lyrics and creating a close and intimate sound.

lyrics

You clutch my arm
the charm on your bracelet hangs down
lost in the folds of my
dressing gown
The paper green
fleur de lys painted patterns on the wall
You and I we're symmetrical

Chours
So take some letters from my name
We are the same
We complete each other’s dreams
There’s a secret that we share,
We will always
Breathe the same air
And I can hear
You whispering Aline
The words you say my twin

Pale perfect skin
And a dimple so lightly on your chin
You were always the pretty one
The artist came
All those days we sat together,
he gave me a rose
And he gave you a ring

He’d paint us at night
lamplight would cast shadows
In our dark and listless eyes
He loved us both
Now i know but
Perhaps it was too much
too amorous
