Lyncs - I Shouldn't Say It

〈Verse 1〉
My love was the string on the bow that let free
The shadow of arrows that hit you beneath
And I'm sorry I locked in your eyes and then left like it was nothing

〈Pre-Chorus〉
I'm afraid it'd be something
And I'm afraid that it's nothing
I'm just hopin' you feel it
I just wish I could say it

〈Chorus〉
And I act like it's nothing but you don't know
I shouldn't say it, but you were the only one
And you act like it's nothing and I don't care
I shouldn't say it, but you were the only one
(You were the only one)

〈Verse 2〉
So high on emotion, so scared of devotion, I'm fakin' it
Your eyes like the ocean
I'd dive and I'd drown, I just know it
(I can't get you off my mind, I can't get you off my mind)

〈Pre-Chorus〉
I'm afraid it'd be somеthing
And I'm afraid that it's nothing
I'm just hopin' you feel it
I just wish I could say it

〈Chorus〉
And I act like it's nothing but you don't know
I shouldn't say it, but you were thе only one
And you act like it's nothing and I don't care
I shouldn't say it, but you were the only one
You were the only one
You were the only one

〈Post-Chorus〉
I shouldn't say it, no
I shouldn't say it, no
I shouldn't say it, no

〈Bridge〉
I can't get you off my mind
I keep sayin' thousand times
I can't get you off my mind
All day and all through the night
I can't get you off my mind
I keep sayin' thousand times
I can't get you off my mind
All day and all through the night

〈Chorus〉
And I act like it's nothing but you don't know
I shouldn't say it, but you were the only one
And you act like it's nothing and I don't care
I shouldn't say it, but you were the only one
(I shouldn't say it) You were the only one
(I shouldn't say it) You were the only one

〈Outro〉
I shouldn't say it, no
I shouldn't say it, no
I shouldn't say it, no
I shouldn't say it at all

Lyncs, singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, blends the elements of folk, pop, and indie rock into her own chapter of music. Noted for memorable and connective lyrics, her debut work, The Safety EP, was self-recorded, performed, and released August of 2018. After touring locally and opening for artists such as Young The Giant, New Vices, and August & Alden, Lyncs recorded and released “If You Just” and “Black Hole” in 2019. WXPN quotes her journey as “Easy-going acoustic tuneage to ethereal electro-pop singer-songwriting.”

Known to her friends and family as Jacqueline Hynes, Lyncs started her career in the red-rose city of Lancaster, PA. She showed interest in music from the age of 6 and began learning everything from piano to upright bass. She landed a spot with the Hershey Symphonic Orchestra in high school and has performed in many cathedrals and theaters such as Carnegie Hall.

At the age of 18, Lyncs started her degree in Music Business Technology at Millersville University having received the Rising Star Award. She released two B-Side singles, the first titled “Rose Coloured Eyes”. “The Moment”, her sophomore single, has been featured on local indie playlists and blogs. Over the next few years, Lyncs evolved from student bass-player to guitar enthusiast and started writing her own infectious melodies and songs. This led her to start her own project under the artist alias, “Lyncs”, finding what connects us all.

“I’m trying to create something new in a world that is oversaturated with a lot of the same thing, just re-created. I love making music and want to reach people on a new level to discover something new together. We all feel emotions and connections, but not all of what we feel is said in today’s music and I want to change that.”
