8 am from Holy Mountain by Grandamme
Claudia explains, "8 AM is about the moment you first see something for what it really is and not what you’ve wanted it to be. When these moments happen you realise just how much of your own story, needs, and wants you have placed on the lens in which you look at that thing with; (when it’s more or less told you what it was all along). I’ve had many of these moments when you’ve been filling in the gaps in your mind and then the fantasy turns to reality and you think ‘why did I think that was a good idea?’"

Lyrics
8am
In some weird way
I found myself some inner peace
And it's something new
I found myself high and dry
I put my heart out on the line
For a someone that you turned out not to be
My lust for you
Was burning bright
Devoted despite the heat
And this figment of my desire
That I created of you
Was a burning effigy
In the deadliest desert planes
You came as a mirage
My darling belladonna
I’m Icarus to the sun
I got too close
And now I’m in deep water
It was 8am and a brand new sun
Was giving me insight
Enough to come undone
You came along
I filled the gaps in my mind
I saw perfection I was blind
‘cause you’re not the one
In the labyrinth I made up in my head
I lost my way back home
Too consumed in this new world
Where you couldn't do no wrong
And with this I deceived myself
In the deadliest desert planes
You came as a mirage
My darling belladonna
I’m Icarus to the sun
I got too close
And now I’m in deep water
It was 8am and a brand new sun
Was giving me insight
Enough to come undone
You came along
I filled the gaps in my mind
I saw perfection I was blind
‘cause you’re not the one
