Tattoo
Spinning a captivating web entangled with ruminations on his past relationships, Darius Martin’s new song, Tattoo, is filled with ethereal beats swim, coastal riffs, and a lush field of transcendental sonics. But, despite the pain of heartbreak, Martin can’t help but surrender to the serendipitous wonder of each connection.
No matter what, when you get into different relationships, they can leave marks on your mental, physical and spiritual self, and especially on your heart. So much so that when you no longer have that person in your life it hurts like ripping off the tattoo that they left on your heart. Every lover, every friend and family member leaves these little tattoos all over your soul throughout your life.
