Slip Away is the first single from Ryan Ritual's debut solo album

lyrics

It’s been more than a while
Since I met someone like you
The world shut down and so did I
Reversed into a cocoon
I didn’t mean to let this happen
The circumstances are uncouth
But you keeping showing up in my life
And now all I want is you

I never thought I’d say
This to someone again
I never thought I’d feel like this again
It’s been so many days
Hiding myself from pain
And I don’t wanna let you slip away
Before it begins

I’m not the best at shapes and shit
But I can read a room
This ain’t no damn triangle
Almost a decade now removed
Still I get where you are coming from
I know the loyal rules
But I also know this feels different
And I think you feel it too

I never thought I’d say
This to someone again
I never thought I’d feel like this again
It’s been so many days
Hiding myself from pain
And I don’t wanna let you slip away
I never thought I’d say
This to someone again
I never thought I’d feel like this again
It’s been so many days
Hiding myself from pain
And I don’t wanna let you slip away
Before it begins

Ryan Ritual's "The Weight Of Love" is a haunting echo chamber of 80s-inspired hooks and modern melancholy, a tribute to a year spent in the shadow of familial illness and global crisis. Ritual's songwriting is a masterclass in pop sophistication, each track a capsule of raw emotion, produced to perfection by Chris Zane (Passion Pit, The Walkmen). ... more
