Proof
For every dream I was chasing, Trying to find something I could put my faith in, Lover, it wasn't wasted When, at the end of the road, you were waiting. All I know
Is that I never needed proof The way most people do, It’s enough to just be here, It’s enough to just have you, And that's always been the truth, That whatever we walk through, It’s enough to just be here, It’s enough to just have you.
It's enough, it's enough, It's enough to just have you.
And when that doubt spins in my mind, That when I hold you it might be the last time, I'm starting to understand, These moments don’t fade anymore You turn this life into an open door,
And all I know,
Is that I never needed proof The way most people do, It’s enough to just be here, It’s enough to just have you, And that's always been the truth, That whatever we walk through, It’s enough to just be here, It’s enough to just have you.
Lover, I feel the universe around us here Like nothing’s ever been so clear, Still all our time can come and go And I'll always know,
Is that I never needed proof The way most people do, It’s enough to just be here, It’s enough to just have you, And that's always been the truth, That whatever we walk through, It’s enough to just be here, It’s enough to just have you.
It's enough, it's enough, It's enough, it's enough, No, I never needed proof. It's enough, it's enough, It's enough, it's enough, No, I never needed proof.

The final song on the album, and the conclusion and acceptance of the questions that I have posed over the course of these songs. I have found that the more that I accept and make space for all of the parts of myself, all of the highs and lows, the more resilient I feel to the fears that have held me down for so long, and that is represented in this song; the belief that there are certain parts of us that cannot be stolen or destroyed, that our spirits are the shield that will keep us safe, and that the connections between us are essential to keep us alive.

V In all that was waiting ‘Till the end of the storm, I feel myself changing Into some other form,
The second hand fallen, Broken in two, In the emptiness, calling For a different way through.
C ‘Cause that twist in the road It's coming up fast And it's hard now, I know Making anything last
But hold onto your spirit No, don't let it fade It's harder, these days Keeping anything safe
(Hold on, hold on, Hold on, hold on.)
V2 What's gained in between us Can never be lost, It's not a drop in the ocean And not a coin being tossed,
Stand in your light, now, In every shape Oh, nothing can ever Take that away.
C ‘Cause that twist in the road It's coming up fast And it's hard now, I know Making anything last
But hold onto your spirit No, don't let it fade / break It's harder, these days Keeping anything safe
Hold on, hold on, Hold on, hold on. Hold on, hold on, Hold on, hold on. Hold on, hold on, Hold on, hold on.Luca Fogale - Run Where the Light Calls (Official Audio)Luca Fogale2023-03-24 | Stream here: music.lucafogale.com/rwtlc
I wrote this song as a call to action for myself and for those in my life who are struggling; to choose to look for reasons to stay alive, to search for strength and goodness in this life. This song is a rejection of ideas of fate and destiny; a belief that we decide what this life can mean to us. The lyrics speak of strength waiting within, of infinite potential just beneath the surface, and how important it can be to have people who have deep and unconditional belief in you.”
“In every breath I can feel your resolve, Let yourself fall, Run where the light calls.”
V Are you willing now to fold? To rewrite every story? Or is that darkness hanging on With the promise of the dawn
Is there something left to keep Some fragment of the passing time For whatever's turned to dust I still believe and trust In the bond between your soul and mine
Pre Can you feel my love all around you?
C Cause I know that Fate could never force your hand Not in the future, not in the past In every breath I can feel your resolve Let yourself fall, Run where the light calls. Destiny can't hold you down So don't look back over your shoulder now, If there is nothing left inside these walls Let yourself fall, Run where the light calls.
V2 Can you let it pass you by Salvation in those falling stars? ‘Cause for all that's left to give Well, infinity is just a start
Pre Can you feel my love all around you?
C Cause I know that Fate could never force your hand Not in the future, not in the past In every breath I can feel your resolve Let yourself fall, Run where the light calls. Destiny can't hold you down So don't look back over your shoulder now, If there is nothing left inside these walls Let yourself fall, Run where the light calls.
B And in this place Of disappearance Beneath the noise I Can feel your spirit Overflowing Into all you will become.
C ‘Cause Fate could never force your hand Not in the future, not in the past In every breath I can feel your resolve Let yourself fall, Run where the light calls. Destiny can't hold you down So don't look back over your shoulder now, If there is nothing left inside these walls Let yourself fall, Run where the light calls.Luca Fogale - To Run (Official Audio)Luca Fogale2023-03-24 | Stream here: music.lucafogale.com/rwtlc
The introduction to this body of work. “To Run” poses the questions that repeat throughout the songs that follow; questions about love, about motivation, and about destiny. Throughout all of the doubt in my mind and in this song, I introduce the thought that nothing is left to chance, that we hold power over all that we decide.
“I have faith that every choice is yours, To climb in spite of every fall, To run where the light calls.”
Written by Luca Fogale Produced by Luca Fogale Mixed by Steve Hassett Album Photography by Erica Chan ericachan.com Album Design by Keenan Kosolowski heavysleeper.co
Is there hope for all the love that I keep hidden? Is there life inside the dreams that I let die? Is purpose hidden somewhere in the details? A wind waiting for a chance to rise
If fate can really force our hands Then what does that leave us? Crumbling where we stand, Beholden to the dust? If destiny can hold us down, Then what would it all be for? I have faith that every choice is yours To climb in spite of every fall To run where the light calls (Run, run) To run, to run, To run, to run, To run, to run, To run, to run.Luca Fogale - Let Go (Official Audio)Luca Fogale2023-03-24 | Stream here: music.lucafogale.com/rwtlc
“Let Go” is the apex of the fears of the songs in this album; the fears that I do not have enough time or enough control over the moments within my life, and that I will not be ready when my time comes. I have spent too much time over the course of my life worrying about whether or not I will be able to eventually accept my own mortality, and many of those thoughts are written into this song.
V Inside of every moment I know a time will come To let this place unravel, To feel it come undone, But I can’t find the courage, I can’t lift my feet to run.
I wash out every word And wish I could forget that Running through my hands now Is all that I have left, But I can’t see the way out Or feel the heartbeat in my chest.
P Communion with The ash and dust, A desperate call Too close to touch, But at every turn Nothing was ever enough
C Oh, every time I open up my eyes I see a different way, If there’s a moment left Then I can’t let it go to waste, Standing here, at the end of the road I gave too much to just let go (Every time I, Open my eyes, There is too much Passing me by So far from control How can I let go?)
V And now in this silence The hope has left my hands, I try to chase each minute In ways I know I can’t Still, I lose myself in Every chance I ever had.
P Communion with The ash and dust, A desperate call Too close to touch, But at every turn Nothing was ever enough
C Oh, every time I open up my eyes I see a different way, If there’s a moment left Then I can’t let it go to waste, Standing here, at the end of the road I gave too much to just let go (Every time I, Open my eyes, There is too much Passing me by So far from control How can I let go?)
P Communion with The ash and dust, A desperate call Too close to touch, But at every turn Nothing was ever enough.Luca Fogale - Hold Back (Official Audio)Luca Fogale2023-03-24 | Stream Here: music.lucafogale.com/rwtlc
“Hold Back” was written as an attempt to break myself out of patterns of closing myself off from everyone and everything; to allow myself to be open to giving love and receiving love in the ways that I always wanted. I have been trying to create new patterns of openness and honesty in the ways that I live my life, in the hopes that I can avoid pushing myself to a breaking point like I have in the past, and I share those desires in these lyrics.

“I want to be free from this, I want to let go of everything.”
Watching the stars burn out All of the days I took for granted, Now they hold me down. Am I letting the darkness win? Stranded, waiting, Begging just to be let in.
Pre I, I am running out of sacrifices I, I, can’t see where the light is
C There’s no weight in the words that you don’t say No risk in the chance that you don’t take, I feel it slipping out of my hands Any hope for the love that I hold back, Any hope, any hope, Any hope for the love that I hold back.
V2 When all of our time is spent I want to have chosen to have Given every single breath, And I want to let you in I want to be free from this I want to let go of everything
Pre I, I am running out of sacrifices I, I, can’t see where the light is.
C There’s no weight in the words that you don’t say No risk in the chance that you don’t take I feel it slipping out of my hands Any hope for the love that I hold back There’s no power in stories left untold No grace in the things that you control I feel it slipping out of my hands Any hope for the love that I hold back
B ‘Cause every single time I go on alone I lose my direction, No matter how I try Can't find anyone inside my reflection, And I don’t want to hide From the chance that I could let myself be known, no.
C But, there’s no weight in the words that you don’t say No risk in the chance that you don’t take I feel it slipping out of my hands Any hope for the love that I hold back. There’s no power in stories left untold No grace in the things that you control I feel it slipping out of my hands, Any hope for the love that I hold back, Any hope for the love that I hold back, Any hope for the love that I hold back.Luca Fogale - Proof (Official Audio)Luca Fogale2023-02-10 | Listen here: music.lucafogale.com/proof

Worthy of Love Lyrics
V Leave the television on I can't sleep If it's quiet Dreams of hospital beds And the rain On the highway And the breath in my lungs Oh, it feels Like a hurricane As if everything I am Might all just blow away
C ‘Cause All the hurt Left in my blood Is burning up the world I used to dream about I'm lost for answers And I always was But you show me what it means To feel worthy of love
V2 Still anything at all Gets hard to keep in my grasp I see it in my eyes On my skin In my shaking hands, now The pounding in my head Oh, it feels Like an avalanche Running out my time In this life Just an hourglass
C2 Because All the hurt Left in my blood Is burning up the world I used to dream about I'm lost for answers I always was But you show me what it means To feel worthy of love
B You are the heat Of every sun The guiding light In moments where I’ve come undone But still I fall At every turn For all the things I can’t unlearn
C3 ‘Cause all the hurt Left in my blood Is burning up the world I used to dream about I'm lost for answers And I always was But you show me what it means To feel worthy of love (All the hurt) You show me, you show me, ah You show me what it means To feel worthy (You show me) ‘Cause I’m lost, I’m lost, I’m lost But you show me what it means To feel worthy of loveLuca Fogale - Evergreen (Piano) [Official Audio]Luca Fogale2022-10-21 | Stream and download Evergreen here: music.lucafogale.com/evergreenpiano

Evergreen
If I turn back now Would you understand? That I'm a winding path An idle hand If if disappear Could you just forget That I'm an empty page A silhouette?
Have I lost the plot Of everything, Thrown the punch Half-speed swing?
I want to recognize this world For all it could become I want to see all of the parts As more than just their sum I want to know all of your love And all that it could be An infinite blue and evergreen
But do you think about The years that pass I can't look away Darling it happened so fast Am I destined, now To fade away To lose myself In palest grey?
Have I lost the plot Of everything, Thrown the punch Half-speed swing? Did I take a breath And waste it all, Pull the cord Before the fall?
Because I want to recognize this world For all it could become I want to see all of the parts As more than just their sum I want to know all of your love And all that it could be An infinite blue and evergreen
For I moment I could see The future When I looked right in your eyes Now It's all that I can think about Every time I turn away I miss it And darling I just can’t run anymore
I want to recognize this world For all it could become I want to see all of the parts As more than just their sum I want to know all of your love And all that it could be An infinite blue and evergreenLuca Fogale - Evergreen (Lyric Video)Luca Fogale2022-09-09 | Stream and download Evergreen here: music.lucafogale.com/evergreen
"Evergreen" is out now, something I've been waiting to share with you for a very long time. This is the first of the new songs that I've written over the past two years; an attempt to dive deeper into the ways that I hope to see this life and hope to see myself, and the ways that I hope to keep trying.
“I want to recognize this world for all it could become.”
As always, it has been an impossible privilege to have the space to create this music, and I am able to do so because of the support that you have given me. I appreciate you more than you could ever know. x
This is the last song I worked on with my dear friend Olivia Quan, and I really hope she would have liked the way this one turned out. Thinking of her as I send this one into the world today.

Nothing is Lost
It's different now The power that I used to feel Has faded out Lost sight, lost hold of the wheel And I wonder still Is this life what you had hoped it would be?
But, it's closer now What I saw in your eyes That our days, somehow Aren't just a roll of the dice In my clearest dreams Every moment is setting us free
'Cause if nothing is over Then nothing is lost After all of this I know we're better off If nothing is ending Then nothing is gone I can feel it all around
There's a vision here Of how the emptiness fills Measured out When the air is finally still And, I can wait forever Until we both get it right And we will
Because if nothing is over Then nothing is lost After all of this I know we're better off If nothing is ending Then nothing is gone I can feel it all around
Nothing is over Nothing is over Nothing is lost Nothing is over Nothing is over Nothing is lostLuca Fogale - Surviving (Solo) [Official Live Performance]Luca Fogale2021-09-20 | Lyrics:
It's there in your eyes The way this world Has held us down The shifting of light Of second tries No break in the sound
Wherever the road is To stay alive To find a way out We lost the control and We're on our own At least for now
Just Surviving Surviving Surviving Surviving Surviving Surviving And nothing else
And it's falling apart Around us now The room in a spin I hear the howl of the wind And the pounding of the rain And I'd give everything to dream again
There must be more than Surviving Surviving Surviving Surviving Surviving Surviving And nothing else

Unfolding
Let me out, The wires are all showing, Sleight of hand is slowing, Everything explained. Further now From anything absolving, Nothing left to solve, and, Nothing left to say.
In time Untrace Any part of this still holding.
I am not breaking, I am not broken, I am unfolding. I am not breaking, I am not broken, I am unfolding.
Settle in The ordinary sequence, Scatter all your reasons, And leave the rest behind. Lost to win, Everything believed in, Trust the sense to bleed in, Carried to the light.
In time Untrace Every part of this still holding.

The blood rushing in Rhythm is thrown The floors giving out Dragging me home And somebody, fading Moved in the grass Like just for a second A decade has passed
So bend the rules Or break them all You and I The same old cloth
You're the one You're the one You're the one You're the one
And I'm caught in the balance The wind taking hold So sit for a while And burn out the cold I guess I was the killer And you were the cave 'Cause you open your eyes And I'm already saved
So bend the rules Or break them all You and I The same old cloth Bend the rules Or break them all Lights blown out And curtain's called

I’ve been trying to reach deeper into some of what I’ve experienced in this life, and I poured as much of that weight and honesty into this song as I could. Wherever you’re listening from, I hope it resonates with you. Thank you all so much for your support, it means more than you know. x

Feel It
Get it all out now, Anything you need, While the book is open, Cold and incomplete. Nearly disappeared, Who I could’ve been, Cast into the heat, Recklessly in spin.
But, wait, Something got left out, Isn’t someone meant to be Standing beside me?
‘Cause I can’t feel it, I can’t feel it, Like the most important piece Is always buried underneath And I can’t feel it, No, I can’t feel it, No, I can’t.
And on a turn of phrase Surrender to the side, Bury all the meaning, Wash over the white, ‘Cause I can hear the loss Inside everything, Torn into the grandeur, Hollowed to the skin.
But, wait, Something got left out, Isn’t someone meant to be Standing beside me?
‘Cause I can’t feel it, I can’t feel it, Like the most important piece Is always buried underneath And I can’t feel it, No, I can’t feel it, No, I can’t.
My new single, Every Colour, is out now. I wrote this song a very long time ago, and it's taken as many forms as a song of mine ever has, ending up as you hear it now. We thought a lot about what song to put out next, and landed on one of positivity; a song about finding beauty in anything and everything

Every Colour
I’ve been staring at the ceiling Trying to figure out How we end up here time and time again, Swallowed up in doubt.
Brother, I quit dreaming Around the time that you did, And traded hopes of leaving For the role where I’m best suited.
Do you hear me screaming Up into the sky, “What’s the sense in grieving, If nobody ever dies?” Oh, I feel the hours slipping While I stumble to the edge, Losing faith in everything When I couldn’t make a dent.
‘Cause I seem to forget When I get all worked up, That you can find every colour If you look close enough.
Ooh, ooh, ooh.
There’s a certain bit of stillness That I only ever chase, Like eyes before they open Or a storm before it breaks. Running fingers into soil Releasing all its heat, Well I can feel the humming Of the earth beneath my feet.
But still I seem to forget When I get all worked up, That you can find every colour If you look close enough.
Ooh, ooh, ooh. (If you’re looking close enough.) Ooh, ooh, ooh. (If you’re looking close enough.)Luca Fogale - Every Colour (Official Audio)Luca Fogale2020-07-10 | Stream Every Colour here: lucafogale.fanlink.to/everycolour

Another Way Around
Trust me when I say that I understand That believing in nothing is a lead-heavy hand, That the fate of the water resolves in the sand, That maybe all we’re doing’s for nothing. But you pace down the hallway with nothing to say, And the chords all feel empty when you sit down to place, So you stand in the doorway and wait for a change, Wishing that every piece was for something,
But if nothing is sacred, Then nothing is lost, And I’m in your corner Whatever the cost, And if the fists that are flying are keeping you down Then we’ll fight a little harder, And find another way around.
But still the traces of you seem to lie spread apart, The engine won’t turn and the furnace won’t spark, Conversations of futures resign to the dark, Feels like all that you’ve built may just crumble. But, I know that I’ve seen, in your eyes, there’s a space, To salvage the moments all nearly erased, To finally hold on to the feelings you chase, To learn how to sprint through a stumble,
But if nothing is sacred, Then nothing is lost, And I’m in your corner Whatever the cost, And if the fists that are flying are keeping you down Then we’ll fight a little harder, And find another way around. If the fists that are flying are keeping you down Then we’ll fight a little harder, And find another way around.Luca Fogale - Unfolding (Official Video)Luca Fogale2019-07-12 | Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2GabmNR Apple Music: apple.co/2NSXYE0
Unfolding is a song that I wrote about struggling to find my spirituality and my place in society, in response to which I was forced to look inwards to find self-worth and self-love. The music video for Unfolding represents a rebirth. The characters have both become affected in similar ways that I was, paralyzed by doubt and confusion and chased by anxiety and anger, but in searching, they eventually find a place of stillness in solitude as I have tried to do in my own life.
Let me out, The wires are all showing, Sleight of hand is slowing, Everything explained. Further now From anything absolving, Nothing left to solve, and, Nothing left to say.
In time Untrace Any part of this still holding.
I am not breaking, I am not broken, I am unfolding. I am not breaking, I am not broken, I am unfolding.
Settle in The ordinary sequence, Scatter all your reasons, And leave the rest behind. Lost to win, Everything believed in, Trust the sense to bleed in, Carried to the light.
In time Untrace Every part of this still holding.
You are not breaking, You are not broken, You are unfolding. You are not breaking, You are not broken, You are unfolding.Luca Fogale - Half-Saved (Official Video)Luca Fogale2019-03-29 | Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2YqCdg2 Apple Music: apple.co/2HKMZZE
Produced by opaque philly Shot by Rick Cook Edited by Hunter Siede
This is one of the first songs that I’ve written about the questions that I’ve had since leaving the Catholic faith nearly a decade ago - questions about feeling worthy of salvation, or love, or consciousness, or purpose - asked from a spiral unlike anything else I’ve experienced. Whatever your ideals may be, I hope you find a point of resonance in it. Thank you so much for listening, sending all of my love to you. x

Half-Saved
Your voice is ringing in my ears Cadenced and ever-clear. I’m in the middle of the road Unrequited, uncontrolled. Caught still in heavy-handed swing, Swallowed while the heavens sing, To be God-damned, but never feel a thing.
To be half-loved Or half-saved Still means something but it’s in a form I can’t explain. To have half-gone Or half-stayed, Maybe I’ve never really found Or really lost my way.
I held close the hands I used to know Suspended in the altar’s glow, Dissolved in harmony and grace Hidden in that stranger’s face. But still, I can’t escape the sounds That keep me held down to the ground, Their voices have all become too loud.
To be half-loved Or half-saved Still means something but it’s in a form I can’t explain. To have half-gone Or half-stayed, Maybe I’ve never really found Or really lost my way.Luca Fogale - What I Came Here For (Live at Monarch Studios)Luca Fogale2019-02-15 | Listen to the studio recording here: Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2rl6gqG Apple Music: apple.co/2JQFIUW
"What I Came Here For” was written following a story my grandmother told me about being caught in a bombing raid with my grandfather in Italy during the Second World War. She recalled that when the attack started and they tried to find cover, one of her family members was killed, and they realized that all they could do was hold on to each other and hope to make it through unharmed.
- What I Came Here For
Early in the morning, When the colors reappear, I'll be here. And they're coming without warning, So close your eyes And block up your ears. But we'll be alright, We'll be alright. We'll be alright. We'll be alright. Because as long as I've got you in my arms, I don't mind That I forgot what I came here for. As long as I've got you in my arms, I don't mind that I forgot what I came here for
So let's find a little shelter, And play a game of hide and seek. Maybe for an hour, Or maybe for a day, or for a week. Well I do my sleeping in the winter, So let's just leave our living for the spring. But don't you worry for a second, child, 'Cause I'll take care of everything. As long as I've got you in my arms, I don't mind That I forgot what I came here for. As long as I've got you in my arms, I don't mind that I forgot what I came here for.Luca Fogale - What I Came Here For (Official Video)Luca Fogale2018-05-04 | Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2rl6gqG Apple Music: apple.co/2JQFIUW

Luca Fogale - I Dont Want to Lose You (Official Video)Luca Fogale2017-11-12 | I Don't Want To Lose You - a song about love, doubt, and the things that fall in between.
It was always hard to pin you down And it was only natural For me to hope you’d come around, But please, Take your reservations and forget them Because things could be so easy if you’d let them
And I don’t want to lose you now Or ever. I don’t want to lose you now Or ever.
There’s a darkness In the way you sing, And something curious in how you walk As if you’ve got a broken wing, That makes me want to help you find a way To throw your shadow, We can even sing songs about your past loves At my piano
Because I don’t want to lose you now Or ever. I don’t want to lose you now Or ever.
And I can always feel it When you’re getting set to run, Like you’re halfway through the chorus And you think the song is done. But baby take a minute Or take a beer out from the fridge, So maybe we can try this time To make it past the bridge.
Because I don’t want to lose you now Or ever. I don’t want to lose you now Or ever. I don’t want to lose you now Or ever. I don’t want to lose you now Or ever.
