This song means a lot to me.

On the one hand, I've long been trying to find my way back to a more refined version of how I used to sound when working in Logic Pro, but I couldn't quite figure out how I sounded the way I did back then. After long last, I've found that it was orchestral elements— in this case, a string section, french horns, and bells— that made a world of difference. I'm finally able to capture the lush, full sound I once had with the more up-to-date production techniques I've learned in the last few years.

On the other hand, it's been a little while since I've written a more emotionally impactful tune. Meanwhile, in the last month it's been a struggle to step back from work and content creation to take better care of myself, and I felt the whispers of a version of myself I thought I left behind coming back to haunt me. This song was my reminder to myself that I've kept the best of myself with me, and I'm worth maintaining. The way I used to be is no longer here. I'm finally more fully and openly myself, and that will not change.

Please enjoy my last original release of 2022. And here's to a spectacular 2023.

SOMEWHERE WITHIN
(J. Stebbins)
--------------------------------------
VERSE 1
I haven't heard your echo
Hiding in the wind for many years
But somehow
You're darkening my shadow
Bittering the salt within my tears


BRIDGE
Another world, another time
You were the one who saved me, opened my eyes
But you gave in, a welcome goodbye
Why now, have you come back to be my...

CHORUS
Shadow from within
Was it never enough to watch you decay
Or was it in the light beaming from another time
That keeps you from the fade away?

Oh my shadow from before
Should've never allowed you to begin
Forever am I tied to the mem'ry you created
Yet you linger somewhere within


VERSE 2
Try as you might, are you frustrated
with the fact that I moved on without you
And in the light you're dissipated
In a moment you'll be gone
