ETML – Bind Me

ETML is a 18 year old singer, writer and producer from the suburbs of South West London who is exploding onto the club scene with his summer debut “Bind Me”. An instant classic, ETML (or Elliot as he is known among friends) sits well among contemporaries Bondax and Disclosure, and grew up on a musical love of Daft Punk, Fatboy Slim and Jamiroquai. Having just finished studying for his A Levels, ETML has been making and recording music from his bedroom, working with young producer Taneli on this single. Truly one of the sounds of the summer!

ETML – Bind Me lyrics:
Sweetest touch.
Breathe as I lust.
Give you everything and more.
But my all is not enough.

Speak in hush.
In you I pour my trust.
But this order is too tall.
And for me it’s much too much.

Take the sail and lead toward.
The things that I’ve been told.
Twist and turn to no avail.
These things that make me bold.

Cordon off the rituals.
That make it all the same.
Captivate and overrule.
I’m lying in your game.

You’ve got what it takes to bind me
To these things that you hold dear
Tying your knots inside me
Is the only thing I fear

You’ve got what it takes to bind me
So sweetly and sincere
Only holding on so tightly
Cause I see nothing from way down here

Even the rush is not enough
To make the blood run cold in love
It’s all too much, I’m out of luck
You give me nothing and it feels so rough

One day these teal eyes will realize
It’s only one thing that you need
I’ve been chastised by your lies
For so long that I can’t feel.

Take the sail and lead toward
The things that I’ve been told
Twist and turn to no avail
These things that make me bold

Cordon off the rituals
That make it all the same
Captivate and overrule
I’m lying in your game

You’ve got what it takes to bind me
To these things that you hold dear
Tying your knots inside me
Is the only thing I fear

You’ve got what it takes to break me
So sweetly and sincere
Only holding on so tightly
Cause I see nothing from way down here

Even the rush is not enough
To make the blood run cold in love
It’s all too much, I’m out of luck
You give me nothing and it feels so rough

One day these teal eyes will realize
It’s only one thing that you need
I’ve been chastised by your lies
For so long that I can’t feel.
