Lyrics:

Idealise the life
Can't mix the paint right

Steal my colours
Just don't see me fall down

Steal my colour
Take my thunder
Give me wonder
Steal my colour

Steal My Colour (demo)

Cake For Breakfast

Too Honest

Wrapped in early-2000s pop sheen, Known is a heartfelt confession of the lifelong ache to be seen. Camp Rock woven into a love letter to the inner child. Explosive guitars, sugary synths, and a soaring vocal capturing the tension between fame and intimacy. 


Known

A ruthless dive into desire, wanting someone because they are wanted by others. Mandolin, cello, fuzzy guitar, knotted necklaces, pickled people. How envy and self-awareness collide.

Hits Me

Wanting to help a friend in need, so much so that you'd pick them up with a spoon, tie it onto a balloon, just to make it all a little lighter. A circus of sounds, bouncing bass, triumphant horns, and a big warm choir, fostering a journey of hope from start to end.

Spoon Song

Fleetwood Mac’s ‘Dreams’ but turn up the yearn. Wanting someone and yelling it into the sky instead of asking yourself to be honest. Thick harmony, driving drums, floating saxophone, and desperation sickening enough to listen to on loop.

Let’s live like Alice, our own little palace
Preposterous things
Worried white rabbits
let’s make it a habit to follow our dreams

The roses are painted but they are not tainted
They still smell the same
Sing to me sweetly, I’ll love you completely.
Am I to blame?

I’m bonkers
But the best people are
I’m off my rockers
But one day I will conquer
Off with your head
But I don’t want you dead
I just want to be held
Be my king of hearts
Til our wonderland falls apart

I cannot explain myself because I’m not myself you see
My words are nonsensical, my dreams identical
Care for some tea?

I live the way I want to and I want to do it with you
A cat with a grin, some bald happy twins
Just find it within, to be

Bonkers (I’m bonkers)
The best people are
Off our rockers
But one day we will conquer

Off with my head
But you don’t want me dead
You just want to be held
I’ll be your queen of hearts
Til our wonderland falls apart

Wonderland

It would be nice if you could glance my way
Cuz I’m hanging on to every word you say
How was your day?
How was your day?

Feel free to look a little closer
Take notice of the way I feel
Do I look more tired than usual?
Do you think that I’m beautiful?
Could this feeling be mutual?
We’ll see

You emerald eyes light up at night
And they shine
I doubt you know what shade mine glow
For tonight you’re not mine

How was your day?
How was your day?
