Uncover the Truth (EP)

“Uncover the Truth” is the name of Katrin á Borg’s debut EP. Five songs, all in English, who basically are about love and struggle, the good and the bad in people’s everyday life.
After releasing her first singles “Fading Lovehearts” (2016) and “My Heart Cries” (2017), she began working on finishing the songs for this EP.

Still based in Oslo, and due to other circumstances, she was on the outlook for a new producer based nearby to work with. The talented guitarist, Espen Tappel, also a former music student at Høgskolen i Staffeldtsgate, was now producing as well, and a collaboration began. With a new producer she decided to take a slightly different turn musically compared to the previous two singles. The musical universe in these songs are overall more acoustic, organic and soulful, with the slightly more rhythmical challenges and the rich cords making it perhaps a little more complex.

The music is recorded in Bedehuset Studio in Grimstad, Norway, in January 2019 and the vocals are recorded in Tappeluft Studio in Oslo, Norway, in February 2020.

1. Go On

1. Go On

Words & music: Katrin á Borg

I can’t see
All the things you’re showing me
I don’t wanna live my life
Wandering ‘round in the blind

I cant’ see,
All the things you bring to me.
Never saw the signs you gave,
Learning to appriciate.

I don’t wanna keep in mind, all the things i try to hide
Meeting you made time fly, finaly made me realize
Waking up is hard to do, when you’re feeling, oh, so blue

Go on, darling, go on…

I can’t see
Going through this agony
That you’re waiting there for me
Arms wide open, care for me

I don’t wanna keep in mind, all the things i try to hide
Meeting you made time fly, finaly made me realize
Waking up is hard to do, when you’re feeling, oh, so blue

Go on, darling, go on…

Talk about the things we never ever said
Let it all out and maybe it will go away

Go on, darling, go on
Go on, my love, go on
Go on

Go on, my love

2. House by the Shore

Words & music: Katrin á Borg

Got me waiting for your call
Never knew it’d be my fall
Longing to hear your voice
Yearning to be your choice
Gotta say I’m not a big fan anymore
I know what you do, I know who you are
Still you get to me

When you say:
Believe me when I say, I’ll come visit you someday
Yeah, I mean it when I say, I’ll come visit you someday
In your house by the shore

Trying to move past your call
To prevent another fall
Wondering what could have been
Only stirs up everything
Gotta say I’m not a big fan anymore
I know what you do, I know who you are
Still you get to me

Every time you say:
Believe me when I say, I’ll come visit you someday
I mean it when I say, I’ll come visit you someday

Again, my mind
Again, my mind is overwhelmed by you
Again, my mind
Again, my mind is overwhelmed by you
Again, my mind is overwhelmed

Gotta say I’m not a big fan anymore
I know what you do, I know who you are
Still you get to me

When you say:
Believe me, I’ll come visit you someday
And I mean it when I say, I’ll come visit you someday

Ohh, believe me when I say, I’ll come visit you someday
And I mean it when I say, I’ll come visit you someday
I’ll come visit you someday
I’ll come visit you someday
In your house by the shore

3. Uncover the Truth

Words & music: Katrin á Borg

Uncover the truth
Tell me all the things you’ve been hiding from me
Tell me what was meant to spare me from reality
Oh, can’t you see

Uncover the truth
Little lies to hide the facts you’re running from
For the greater good, you say, but just for some
Oh, can’t you see

You can say what you want, but it won’t mean the same to me.
Losing out on the things everyone seems to know about me.
Pushing through, look at you, never knew all the things you do.
You can say what you want, but it won’t mean the same to me.

Uncover the truth
Even good intensions overwhelmed by greed
Restless hearts being fed the darkest seed.
Oh, can’t you see

Uncover the truth
Telling lies to keep us calm, while you do your thing
Feeling this, feeling that, while you make sure you’re meddling
Oh, can’t you see

You can say what you want, but it won’t mean the same to me.
Losing out on the things everyone seems to know about me.
Pushing through, look at you, never knew all the things you do.
You can say what you want, but it won’t mean the same to me.

Oh, it will never be the same
You can say what you want but it won’t be the same

4. What Happened

Words & music: Katrin á Borg

Waking up with heartbreak
With no proof anything has changed
Your memories lined-up
Shows you everything you could change
No useless regretting
Make sure it never happens again

All the people passing by
With no chance to reconcile
With their eyes just on them selves
Who would have known what happened?
what happened?

Don’t settle with wrong ones
Losing focus will stir things up
Look out for the stop signs
Let’s face it, there will be more heartbreak
Pull over and stop now
You have some things you need to explain

All the people passing by
With no chance to reconcile
With their eyes just on them selves
Who would have known?
The people passing by
With no chance to reconcile
With their eyes just on them selves
Who would have known?

The reason you left
Or the reason you stayed
Gave the same outcome of
Someone feeling betrayed.
Did you think this through?
Who’s depending on you?
What will this lead to?

All the people passing by…

You’re barely talking

what happened?

5. Our Hearts Belong

Words & music: Katrin á Borg

New life, a new beginning
Greatest joy ever found
Holding you close, my little wonder
Try to make the moment last

Your journey will run in circles
Making paths no one could foresee
Hopefully you’ll keep on reaching
For your deepest dreams to come true

Let hearts unfold
New tales be told
Our hearts belong
The love is strong

Carefully you reach for my hand
Finding ease for a while
Whispering little words of wonder
Seeking tales yet untold

Though our journeys may run in different circles
Hopefully aligned most of the time
No matter the outcome
My love for you will never fade.

Let hearts unfold
New tales be told
Our hearts belong
The love is strong

Always love you
Always care

Let hearts unfold
New tales be told
Our hearts belong
The love is strong
