new song: crawl

hello my sweet kg records family <3

i come bearing the latest release off the new album, "crawl" :) this song is about the chapter that comes after the knockdown--the chapter where you start to come to again, and though you're weak and hollowed out and broken, you're ready to start trying to put the pieces back together. to me it feels like the beginning of healing. or maybe the beginning of being WILLING to heal. it's about baby steps and celebrating the small wins and giving yourself grace on the occasions you might momentarily stumble back into the dark. "crawl" found its way to me in a dire moment and served as a little mantra i could sing to myself as i ever-so-slowly trudged my way back to myself.

so happy to send this little song out into the world to live its life! i hope it can offer the teensiest bit of light in these heavy times. sending you all love and hope and healing <3

“Crawl” Lyrics


Knock on the door

I'm afraid of all the things that I am not

Anymore, anymore, anymore


Just like before

I am scattered trying to find the parts of me

On the floor, on the floor, on the floor


And I know it’s getting quiet

But you know that I get like this


You and I will crawl until we both get up again

Even though we’re getting tired, so tired

You and I will fall and still we’ll make it in the end

In the meantime you’ll remind me, I’m always fine


You and the stars

Make a list of pretty things to fill my day

Bless your heart, bless your heart, bless your heart


You deal the cards

And it’s better when I seem to float away

From the dark, from the dark, from the dark


And I know that you’ve been trying

Full of tears that you’ve been drying


You and I will crawl until we both get up again

Even though we’re getting tired, so tired

You and I will fall and still we’ll make it in the end

In the meantime you’ll remind me, I’m always fine

I love this so much &amp; this song has been on repeat since you released it ❤️

I love this song so much Kina ❤❤

love it and thank you for it. it really helps during this time.. :)

Soooo beautiful! I love , love, love how honest this video looks♥

Ooh, this is going to be one of my personal favorites. I don't know if any of my current "life stuff" qualifies as a true "knockdown" compared to other stuff I've been through, but as I was listening to the words and enjoying the perfect visual that you created for it, it made me realize that maybe I didn't fully bounce all the way back from previous knockdowns. I feel related to and driven to look into this deeper. You're a gem.

I've had this on repeat ❤❤❤

Such a beautiful song. At first, I didn't really listen to the lyrics, but for some reason I kept playing it over and over. I just could feel the hope and love in the song. When I finally just read the lyrics this song became one of my Kina favorites. It is a nice change. Thanks for sharing! And always we believe in you and keep writing/singing :)

So love to hear you sing! ❤️❤️❤️

Have had this on repeat for the last hour. One of my new Kina favs.

I'm sorry for being a bit late to the party, just been too busy with work or work been too busy with me Thank you, this song is exactly what I needed both hear and I need to say.. that 'I am fine'. It's hard and super tiring to be my own support, you and Jesse are so lucky! And this song sums up how both magical you both are!! I've only watched about 10 seconds of the video as it too wholesome for me to cope without me breaking into tears .. once again just thank you so much
