Look around This is what they all write books about Might take me a while Please stay while I read aloud Figured out It’s like a story that I can’t put down And I’m sorry But things can change If you’ll wait it out Yeah I get it if you want to leave So there you go, let me know There will be no lifetime guarantee Everything that I’m afraid to be Do you want to see? Emily Mercer is a Manchester-based indie artist writing genre-defiant songs for over-thinkers, self-saboteurs and anyone still thinking about something they said in 2016. Her sound blends indie, jazz inspired harmony and classic piano songwriting into something nostalgic, off-centre and quietly sincere, offering up a messy humanity with a lot of heart.
