Check out her music and other works [here](https://pinkie.horse)! OK so. I typed up a big ramble about the process of making this song, which was more complicated than almost anything else I’ve ever done - gonna tack it on here, in case that interests anyone… <b>THE SONGWRITING BIT</b> - I didn’t know what this song would become when I started it. It was just a piano doodle that eventually became the 8-bar refrain in the intro.

It became apparent that the instrumental was missing a melody, so I also started to draft one by humming (it’s how I do it on most of my music now). The first line <i>“All my life / I’ve sought a safer seashore”</i> emerged pretty quickly. |
