Left Behind 04:03
How do you go back into the other light? Once you’d fight now is it any trouble I used to wander in the dark of night To find my pride, doesn’t it make your wonder Deep in my mind she’s trying to sympathize Or find the lies hidden under covers I won’t give up until I’ve been bled dry Why wouldn’t I? If you only knew where i’d been Then you’d understand where i’m coming from I’m just sand sinking under all our plans alone I’m so emotional Bathing deep into my left side Don’t know how to control Anything anymore I’m left behind Look to the sky and hope for some kind of sign Barely trying So unaccountable, how predictable I’ve lost all my will If you only knew where i’d been Then you’d understand where i’m coming from I can’t stand sinking under All our plans alone anymore I’m so emotional Bathing deep into my left side Don’t know how to control Anything anymore I’m left behind I’m so emotional Bathing deep into my left side Don’t know how to control Anything anymore I’m left behind I’m so emotional Bathing deep into my left side Don’t know how to control Anything anymore I’m left behind

Entwined 03:07
Dawn comes a new day And I can’t seem to get up off the floor I no longer wake up to your face At the foot of my bed frame Anymore Anymore Kissed me goodbye I swear you took away a piece of mine Bodies so entwined Now i’ve gone blind without your eyes All I really wanted was to hold you Why won’t you let me through Stared down all my trauma just to mold to What you wanted Holding my own hand I try to overcome a deep dislike The thought is so beautiful and grand But my skin has never felt so dry I fear you stole my pride Turned me into skin and bones A shell from my man My man has found a new home All I really wanted was to hold you Why won’t you let me through Stared down all my trauma just to mold to What you wanted

Dreams 04:26
Goodbyes Never seemed to do Freeze time You were in my room I strive To catch a glimpse of you Writing my own endings For memories I left incomplete I reincarnate all I wanted to be I knew this would happen Only my self-efficacy Could leave me living life as a dream Blue eyes Staring back at me Close mine Keep the reverie Alive I don’t wanna leave This time Never saw it coming How you’d become the one I need Redefining my vocabulary Though it shouldn’t happen I only feel alive in sleep So I’ll keep living mine As a dream

IDWBHA 02:34
Can’t remember when you said to me “You’re all you’ve got” But I don’t know how to try Seems this world has made me wry And overrun I’ll always be unsatisfied With mine I don’t wanna be here anymore I don’t wanna be here anymore Is this real or just self denial? (Is this real anymore?) Which would I want? Guess it’s a masochistic thought Wanting everything I’m not How unrelenting… Have I waited too long On my own? I don’t wanna be here anymore I don’t wanna be here anymore

Didn’t mean to cut you out Thought maybe you’d wait around Never seemed to meet the ground I guess it all burned out Any time you’d touch my neck Twist hard, try to forget But all the while, I’d made a wreck Let it breathe and make amends Wanting to shout So I let you crawl into my mouth But you wouldn’t make a sound Now you’ve left me in the dark Somehow I used to write these words Reread them like a bible But now I cannot practice what I preach When all these familiarities keep me held If I could leave my body and be free Wanting to shout So I let you crawl into my mouth But you wouldn’t make a sound Now you’ve left me in the dark Somehow And you left me in the dark You left me in the dark Mouthing words to myself

You/Me/I 03:52
Instead I’ll take it over the edge When forever seems a bit too intense of a dream I’ll wind up back on my knees again Or whatever strikes a sense of false liberty All that you wanted I gave to you And if you wanted you knew I’d pull through But now I’m not losing too much sleep over you She came alive when the old part of me died So I kiss every limb that still quietly complies All that you wanted I gave to you And if you wanted you knew I’d pull through But now I’m not losing too much sleep over you Can’t understand wanting to be someone else But could never comprehend the thought of being me Why then is it so fucking demanding To keep up with my health instead of deficiencies All that you wanted I gave to you And I swear to god I won’t lose anymore sleep anymore sleep over you

about

In her debut EP, “This Current Self-Intervention”, Julesy explores authenticity in healing, and the self-confrontation it requires. The NYC-based singer/songwriter produces her songs with sharp contrast: light and buoyant synths and dreamy melodies oppose the heaviness of the lyrics, in which Julesy attempts to give herself the intervention she believes she needs. The 80s electro-pop, reminiscent of The Japanese House, stands in willful contradiction to the razor-sharp, layered vocals that cut through with ease. But interventions are inherently disruptive, seen in pointed moments of vocal distortion and glitchy bites, a reminder that comfort and balance rarely last. "This Current Self-Intervention" is performed by Julesy, and features Julian Briones on guitar, Cal Mirowitz on synth/keys; mixing engineering by Dakota Mar, and mastering engineering by the remarkable Robin Schmidt (The 1975 , The Japanese House , Rina Sawayama)
