"Found Me" was born out of those long stretches of life where you feel like you're shouting into a void. I wanted to capture the exact millisecond where the silence breaks that moment when someone finally hears you.

Story behind the song
"Found Me" is an evocative journey from the depths of isolation to the radiance of human connection. The track begins in a minimalist, "silent space," using a melancholic piano and yearning cello to mirror the internal landscape of loneliness. As the lyrics shift from solitude to discovery, the production mirrors this emotional liberation with soaring vocal harmonies, driving percussion, and lush orchestral layers. It is a sonic tribute to that pivotal moment when a single voice or presence pulls someone back into the light.
The 'Movements':
1. The Echoing Silence (0:00 0:51)
The introduction and first verse establish a sense of vast, empty space. The sparse arrangement highlights the "empty rooms and nights," focusing on the vulnerability of the lead vocal and the haunting pull of the strings.
2. The Resonance (0:52 2:10)
Triggered by the line "Then you called my name," the energy shifts. The introduction of drums and layered harmonies represents the internal "change." The music swells into the first major chorus, signaling a transition from "lost" to "found."
3. The Morning Light (2:11 3:37)
Following a bridge that emphasizes the sensory experience of the world getting "quiet," the song reaches its peak intensity. This section features the most expansive instrumentation, representing the "brand new way" the protagonist sees the world.
4. The Lasting Echo (3:38 4:08)
The song winds down with a gentle instrumental outro, returning to the piano and cello. This serves as a peaceful resolution, leaving the listener with a sense of calm and newfound belonging.

Lyrics
Silent space inside
Empty rooms at night
Words that wouldn't come
All those years alone
Just my heartbeat sound
Breaking down
Then you called my name
Something changed, something changed
Lost until your voice found me
Lost until you turned around
Now every sound surrounds me
Your voice found me, found me now
Time was standing still
Counting stars until
Waiting for a sign
Every step I take
Every breath I make
Leads me back
When you called my name
Everything changed, everything changed
Lost until your voice found me
Lost until you turned around
Now every sound surrounds me
Your voice found me, found me now
I hear you in the morning light
I hear you in the rain
I hear you when the world gets quiet
Saying my name, saying my name
(Saying my name, saying my name)
Now I understand
How the pieces land
How the colors blend
Every single day
In a brand new way
Here to stay
Lost until your voice found me
Lost until you turned around
Now every sound surrounds me
Your voice found me, found me now
(Your voice found me, found me now)
