About Lost

Here’s the scene: 15 year old Luna Keller is standing in a doorway in Ireland with her guitar. She’s at “Make a Change” a place where young musicians meet and all rooms are taken though. So she’s outside with her guitar looking at the light rain fall against the street lights. Minutes ago her mom called and told her she had to make a quick decision that night: stay in Ireland for a year, return home after 3 and a half months (as planned originally) or return but apply to spend the next year in Canada. 

That was me, feeling very lost, overwhelmed and cold. I needed to enter my safe space, to understand myself - so I wrote a song. I often refer to my songs as friends, and in that moment “Lost” was exactly the friend I needed. One to acknowledge my feelings and find the courage to face them. Through this song I realized that I wanted to return home since “just because the door is open, doesn’t mean you have to go through”. There would be time enough for travel, but the time at home with my parents would never return. And my dad and I where just starting my music project together, a different decision would have changed my journey as an artist massively. I’m happy this song brought me home when I needed it. 

Life is confusing and sometimes big decisions can make our world spin. And that’s ok. It’s human and we get to learn a lot from those defining moments. This song is more than a song to me - it’s a turning point, a snapshot of a crossroad in my life. Ironically, “Lost” helped me find myself.
