Kevin, I hope you read this. You are the most amazing artist I have ever heard, I’ve been following you since you released your first EP and it’s so amazing to see how you’ve transitioned. Please believe me when I say I love your music, every song holds raw emotion that only you can sing through your lyrics. When you tour again, best believe that I will buy VIP because I want to be able to tell you all this. Honestly, thank you for your music
LYRICS💗 [Verse 1] Unwrapped in paper It never phased her when I give To hold on was all but gone in an instant I could not blame her I didn't stay enough to wish and one priest could not absolve me of my sins, yeah [Verse 2] Some time ago now Gave up my post I left behind Cause she wanted what she always thought felt right But since I've come down From that old mountain I had climbed I heard that she's still searching for her good sign [Chorus] Stay low, swim to home, hold tight Cause it looks rough on the front tonight Lost my way, once or twice but I won't sway in a fight Do I pray? No, but I have faith you might [Verse 3] I did not sleep but still I can't see what it has become When she held it all against us in the long run Maybe I'm focused on something other than some love But only ever thought that when I was young [Chorus] Stay low, swim to home, hold tight Cause it looks rough on the front tonight Lost my way, once or twice but I won't sway in a fight Do I pray? No, but I have faith you might [Bridge] Underneath my skin you exist I cannot get rid of all of it Up too late to shout so I quit And I don't give a shit, hmm [Chorus] Stay low, swim to home, hold tight Cause it looks rough on the front tonight, tonight oh Lost my way, once or twice but I won't sway in a fight Do I pray? No, but I have faith you might Do I pray? No, but I have faith you might [Outro] Do I pray? No, but I have faith you might
i think it actually says “HANDwrapped in paper.” and “it never phased her when HER GIFT , to hold on was all but gone in an instant.” it makes more sense grammatically and sounds more correct as well

It's either (swim to home or swing your arm, and I feel like "swing your arm" makes the most sense :/ lolol) Enjoy!
Your voice is like a big hug from a loved one, it just does something to my soul where for a moment everything is calm, warm and safe! I’m so excited for Hoax! ❤️
Kevin....... I will see you in Atlanta, sir... I saw you in Athens with Oh Wonder, and ever since then.... you have really just been there ever since. ( through everything ). I appreciate you as a musician so much, and i hope to share the stage with you some day in the future. You are simply the best. Thank you so much.
KEVINNNNNNN you've done it again! You're music NEVER disappoints. ALSO so happy you released merch!!!! I LOVE the design and am definitely getting some. I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE ALBUM AND HOPEFULLY A TOUR IN THE NEAR FUTURE????!!! Thanks for everything you do
Seems as if he’s caught in his thoughts, maybe he doesn’t know how to relay them to her, so they sit in silence. But he channels his emotions through music. Which might not be how she communicates. And the in the end, she’s gone. I’m sure it goes much deeper than that but that’s what I gathered from the first watch. I love Kevin. This song is beautiful. Can’t wait for the rest of ‘hoax’ to be released. Long time coming for OG stans.
“Do I pray? No, but I have faith you might” ... wow I don’t know why this touched me so deeply but it has!
I was just gonna write the exact same thing!
Our boy Kevin’s back with his turtlenecks and his bittersweet melodies
And don't we just love him for that, and more? :')
Who else liked it before listening? It's raining outside right now... What a beautiful setting for this song. ❤
Honestly one of prettiest songs I’ve heard in a while. Thank you man, you’re grossly underrated
thank you kindly xx

hope you haven't forgotten about this... if so, I just reminded you
He is not appreciated as much as should be 😭
So many feels
Your voice feels like a spring breeze in a summer morning ❤️.
I will never understand how someone with a voice this incredible is still so underrated
THERE IS NO DRILL how am i suppose to be ready kevin 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
This came out of nowhere, & it's exactly what I needed. Thank you so much Kevin
just wanna say i'm glad that i found him and his music.
I don't know how many times I listened to this song man.... And the video, just so beautiful.
All the way from South Africa and just bumped to his songs on Spotify and now I'm a new fan❤️! Awesome Music!!!❤️❤️❤️
Once again Kevin, thank you, your music speaks to the soul. Love from Trinidad and Tobago
Amazing! 🙌
Can't quite describe this beautiful sadness, trusting in something other than myself. *Faith
heart-wrenchingly beautiful, thank you.
LYRICS💗
[Verse 1]
Unwrapped in paper
It never phased her when I give
To hold on was all but gone in an instant
I could not blame her
I didn't stay enough to wish and one priest could not absolve me of my sins, yeah
[Verse 2]
Some time ago now
Gave up my post I left behind
Cause she wanted what she always thought felt right
But since I've come down
From that old mountain I had climbed
I heard that she's still searching for her good sign
[Chorus]
Stay low, swim to home, hold tight
Cause it looks rough on the front tonight
Lost my way, once or twice but I won't sway in a fight
Do I pray? No, but I have faith you might
[Verse 3]
I did not sleep but still I can't see what it has become
When she held it all against us in the long run
Maybe I'm focused on something other than some love
But only ever thought that when I was young
[Chorus]
Stay low, swim to home, hold tight
Cause it looks rough on the front tonight
Lost my way, once or twice but I won't sway in a fight
Do I pray? No, but I have faith you might
[Bridge]
Underneath my skin you exist
I cannot get rid of all of it
Up too late to shout so I quit
And I don't give a shit, hmm
[Chorus]
Stay low, swim to home, hold tight
Cause it looks rough on the front tonight, tonight oh
Lost my way, once or twice but I won't sway in a fight
Do I pray? No, but I have faith you might
Do I pray? No, but I have faith you might
[Outro]
Do I pray? No, but I have faith you might
Beautiful.
i think it actually says “HANDwrapped in paper.”
and “it never phased her when HER GIFT , to hold on was all but gone in an instant.”
it makes more sense grammatically and sounds more correct as well
oh and “i’ve BEEN asleep but, still i CAN see what it’s become.”
i think so too! but i got this from a lyric page and i didnt change anything
Qeertu F i’m glad u think so too, i thought i was crazy
[ Lyrics ] 💓🎆
Hand wrapped in paper
It never phased her when her gift
To hold on was all but gone in an instant
I could not blame her
I didn't stay enough to wish
And one priest could not
Absolve me of my sins, yet
Some time ago now
Gave up my post I left behind
Cause she wanted what she
Always thought felt right
But since I've come down
From that old mountain I had climbed
I heard that she's still
Searching for her good side
Stay low, swing your arm, hold tight
Cause it looks rough on the front tonight
Lost my way, once or twice
But I won't sway in a fight
Do I pray? No, but I have faith you might
I've been asleep, but still I can
See what its become
When she held it all against us in the long run
Maybe I'm focused on something
Other than some love
I only ever thought of when I was young
Stay low, swing your arm, hold tight
Cause it looks rough on the front tonight
Lost my way, once or twice
But I won't sway in a fight
Do I pray? No, but I have faith you might
Underneath my skin
you exist
I cannot get rid of all of it
Up too late to shout, so I quit
And I don't give a shit,
hmmm
Stay low, swing your arm, hold tight
Cause it looks rough on
The front tonight, tonight oh
Lost my way, once or twice
But I won't sway in a fight
Do I pray? No, but I have faith you might
Do I pray? No, but I have faith you might
Do I pray? No, but I have faith you might

Kevin's voice echoes in my brain after every song I listen. It's amazing.
