You lived that night in Godric’s Hollow,
Delivered by your mother’s plea, [in the]
Years that followed, how you had to hide
Blood doesn’t make a family.
From Privet Drive and grim stagnation,
Through the Leaky Cauldron you were led,
Your relations, finally left behind.
At last, your old existence shed.
Chorus:
The love you seek is all around you
Oh Harry, can you fin’lly see
For those who love you now surround you,
We are your chosen family
You walked a path so convoluted,
But in the company of friends.
Persecuted, | told you’re telling lies
You shine your light as dark descends.
Chorus
If you fight or hide, we’ll be by your side, though you’re feeling alone.
Seeking in obscurity, parables of purity, cloak and wand and stone.
(Together we’ll find you!)
With you to the end, even death transcend, holding you when you fall.
When it seems like all is lost, heedless of the higher cost, all of us are standing tall (we’re always behind you)
The love you seek is all around you,
No need to hide beneath the stair,
Old expectations may have bound you,
You’re free to be with those who care.
The love you seek is all around you
Oh Harry, can't you fin’lly see
For those who love you now surround you,
We are your chosen family

The moment I heard 'Forget the Girl' on a mix years ago, I fell in love, and I was so delighted to find more music by the same band. Avery's lyrics are a standout in the world of wizard rock, and I don't say this lightly. His grasp of characters and the heartfelt, poetic songwriting and delivery are second to none. I adore songs about canon relationships that give me new insights, and this album does that so well. yourwizardrockresource

A gorgeous second album that holds up well to the high standard set by the first. The sweet love songs are back, along with an ode to Ron Weasley, a gorgeous metawrock song (and I'm not usually a big fan of metawrock), a couple of spiritual successors to songs from the debut album and one of my favourite DH Chapter 34 songs ever, among other gems. The fact that Avery is a songwriting genius cannot be understated. yourwizardrockresource

A long-awaited wizard rock album from a pioneer of the wrock community. Mostly wrock, but there are some other nerdy songs thrown in, though they don't disrupt the cohesion. Lauren is always awesome, and if you liked her previous music, you will enjoy this fuller sound even more. yourwizardrockresource
