Peyton Stilling tem apenas 18 anos, mas quem não souber e a ouvir, certamente não diria que é tão jovem. Pisou os palcos pela primeira vez com 12 anos e teve a certeza, já nessa altura, que era isso que queria fazer da vida. E agora aqui a temos, com o seu single “Forest Through the Trees” que junta à sua poderosa voz uma veia poética. Depois de a sua mãe ter sido diagnosticada com cancro, foi na música que se refugiou e é através dela que agora conta as suas histórias que espera encontrarem significado em quem a ouve. “Forest Through the Trees” é uma composição simples, mas cheia de alma. Comandados pela voz de Peyton, somos incitados a caminhar por uma imagética bela, entre a luz e as sombras, mas é palpável a força que nos empurra para um novo despertar.
Sobre o tema a artista conta: “This song came from a time in my life last year when I was feeling confused about the unknown. I had just been rejected from a prestigious music school and was feeling completely lost. I thought I had my future planned out and was so focused on what I thought would be best for me. ‘Forest Through The Trees’ is me coming to the realization that if you focus too closely on one thing, you’ll lose sight of the big picture.”

A distant little dream
Floating in my mind
Reaching out to touch
Then it fades into the night
Pre-Chorus:
It’s in my soul
It’s in my soul
It’s in my soul
I can feel it
Why is there no
Why is there no
Why is there no
No direction
Chorus:
Help me
I can’t see the forest through the trees
I am searching for that feeling
Trying to find the hidden meaning
I’m caught up in the leaves and the green
I can’t see the forest through the trees
Verse 2:
Tangled in the mess
Sinking down into the sand
Just cause you hit the ground
Doesn’t mean you can’t rise again
Pre-Chorus:
It’s in my soul
It’s in my soul
It’s in my soul
I can feel it
Why is there no
Why is there no
Why is there no
No direction
