I've Made a Change

about

I've Made a Change, a song about transformation and empowerment, was originally written for the Twilight finale, but did not end up in the film. Years later--and serendipitously--Catherine Hardwicke (director of the first Twilight) heard the song and reached out to Anya about including it in her new show "Don't Look Deeper" on Quibi (July 27, 2020). At long last, it felt right to release this special song written and recorded in Portland, Oregon in 2011. Fun fact: I've Made a Change was initially divided into two songs--part I and II.

lyrics

Always been so lost, never fit in
Never felt quite right in my skin
When I saw you with your secret eyes, I was found. 

Now I feel so new
I’ve made a change
Gotta wonder where I was all these days

I’ve been here all along
Yeah I’ve been here just waiting it out


Always been so lost, never fit in
Never felt quite right in my skin
Now I feel so new
I’ve made a change
Gotta wonder where I was all these days

‘Cause I’ve been here all along
Yes, I’ve been here just waiting it out
Never knew the power just under my fears
Never knew the hunger but it thunders in my ears so loud

‘Cause I’ve been here all along
Yes, I’ve been here just waiting it out
Never knew the power so quiet inside 
I never knew the beauty but you saw it in my eyes somehow
Let it out

Now I feel so new
I’ve made a change
And I am found.

Why don’t you show yourself? Why don’t you show yourself?
Do it just to do it
or do it like you’re someone else

Why don’t you show yourself? Why don’t you show yourself?
Do it just to do it
or do it like you’re someone else

Why don’t you show yourself? Why don’t you show yourself?
Why don’t you show yourself? Why don’t you show yourself?
