Original song written in October 2014, Vancouver, BC.

The way you wrapped your arms around me
A thought so warm I could not see
I never thought you'd be unwilling
To lie one more night here with me

You know I've always had this weakness
For blue eyes black hearts
I didn't know what I was into
Into deep

Maybe you shouldn't run away, baby
Hide your scars, baby
Here we are
Hold me close, I won't be the same, baby
Would you stay, baby
Would you stay, baby

I'm trying hard to be rewritten
I'm working hard to be myself
When you come storming in I'm crumbling
You're busy wishing I was someone else

You know I've always been outnumbered
Alone on this road
But you and I could clear a new path never known

Maybe you shouldn't run away, baby
Hide your scars, baby
Here we are
Hold me close, I won't be the same, baby
Would you stay, baby
Would you stay, baby

Maybe you shouldn't run away, baby
Hide your scars, baby
Here we are
Hold me close, I won't be the same, baby
Would you stay, baby
Would you stay

Hide your scars
Here we are
Hold me close, I won't be the same, baby
Would you stay, baby
Would you stay, baby

Walk with me
Talk with me
Let you be only yourself with me
Stay with me
We'll try again
Let's rewrite all the ways this could end

Rewritten

Spent the day at Kitsilano Beach with my good friend, Sean Potter. We jammed out and recorded a few songs on our iPhones with the waves crashing in the background. Enjoy!

Concrete - Original song by Alyssa Schultz written in March 2015

Tell me one more time
Can't seem to get your off my broken mind
I'm losing faith and I'm losing time
Can't seem to get you off my mind

I'm leaving west-bound streets
I'm moving East
I'm feeling less concrete
It scares me

I'll see you again for now
Maybe, you and I can fall asleep
You'll be mine again for now until I'm
I'm not asleep

Tell me you are mine
Know the words I crave from you all the time
Whispers I've lost my mind
There hasn't come a time when I would 
Leave you behind

Maybe I should leave these west-bound streets
I'll go East
I'll miss that old concrete
It scares me

I'll see you again for now
Maybe, you and I can fall asleep
You'll be mine again for now until I'm
I'm not asleep

I've built a home
I know we can't be together
But I'm not alone
Good things don't last forever
We'll celebrate tonight
The best years, the best years of our lives

I'm leaving west-bound streets
I'm moving East
I'm feeling less concrete

Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
I'm crying over
Something that's left behind
I'm spilling over
Enough wine for me tonight 
To sing my heart out
This tune will make me feel safe

(Verse 2)
The sun is falling
Vancouver's getting dark
And the waves are climbing
I crave a second start
To sing my heart out
This beach will make me feel strong
What's it like to feel strong?

(Chorus)
And in the sunset I can hear a whisper
Give me one more day to ease my mind
I'm losing grip while we're losing shore
And the tides are rolling in, it feels like I've been here before
My heart is giving in, it feels like I've been here before

(Verse 3)
Warm streets are cold here
Strangers will find their way
To the busy shops and buzzing streets
They're running circles in their sleep
And I don't want to be here
Something is holding me in place
About time I found my own space

(Chorus)
We'll chase the sunset and I'll slowly whisper
Give me two more weeks to ease my mind
I'm losing grip while we're losing sleep
And the tides are rolling in, it feels like I'm in too deep
My heart is giving in, it feels like I'm in too deep

(Bridge)
These islands know me
They can see my soul
I'm not missing home
Just feeling it's time to go
Sand between my toes 
There's colours in the sky
They are colours of goodbye
And I wish you wouldn't cry
I wish that I could hide away

(Verse 4)
So the plane is boarding
Goodbyes are all that's left
And my heart is pouring
I think I'll run unless
I can sing my heart out
Or I can't even tell you why

(Chorus)
When I see the sunset I will hear you whisper
Hold me one more time to ease my mind
I'm catching grip while we hit the sky
And the tides are rolling in, it feels like I'm ready to try
My heart is giving in, it feels like it's not goodbye

Tides

Written in April 2015 by Alyssa Schultz.

Produced/Sound Engineered by George Dean.

Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
Cold hard touch; Jagged lips are all I find here
Nothing to ease my mind here
We will meet again; Until then I'll realize, you
Some things you just can't undo

(Chorus)
So tell me to walk straight
Don't tell me to look back
I was so wrong
You knew it all along
I can't blame myself for trying to lose track
I'll wonder if I am ever coming back
Ever coming back

(Verse 2)
I am not afraid; Face my demons when I have to
Hold my ground like I was born to
Walls are coming down; Layers peel with teary eyes
And forget our wasted time while you

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
There's nothing wrong with bleeding hearts
Let me hold you in my arms while we spin
Deeper in this oblivion
And shut my eyes until I can't see
All the things they want me to be
When I just need to breathe

Don't look back
I'm never coming back, never coming back

(Chorus)

I'm never coming back, never coming back


Undone

Original music written by Alyssa Schultz in June 2013.

Produced/Sound Engineered by George Dean in August 2015.

LYRICS:

(Verse 1)
Take me back
Don't you remember those moments I feel first
Head over heels
I couldn't help; couldn't help but feel that something was stronger the closer
I remember the late nights, the goodbyes
While I sat around and wait for you just to realize

(Chorus)
Someday you're going to find this is extraordinary
You'll be here by my side
Telling me this is all we'll ever need
All we'll ever need

(Verse 2)
Don't think that they can tell
I was a goner the second the hour
But I feel so broken down and 
This love's a place where I can still feel the power
I dug my feet in and held strong, won't carry on
Can't shake this feeling that you'd rather I'd moved on

(Chorus)
But someday you're going to find this is extraordinary
You'll be here by my side
Telling me this is all we'll ever need
All we'll ever need

(Verse 3)
I walk home all alone
My mind, it wanders with the thought of you not here
My hands are getting cold
I can't turn around you know 'cause
You wont be running, trying somehow to tell me so

(Chorus)
But someday you're going to find this is extraordinary
You'll be here by my side
Telling me this is all we'll ever need
All we'll ever need

Extraordinary

Original music written by Alyssa Schultz in 2010.

Produced/Sound Engineered by George Dean in January 2016.

LYRICS:

(Verse 1)
Looks like a summer day it's beautiful to your eye
The cold is sharp on your skin; it isn't much a surprise
But still you seem so surprised

The sky is crying but there isn't a cloud in sight
Feels like I'm dying 'cause we'll never win this fight

(Chorus)
Wish I could find a way to take the sun from the sky
Wish I could find a way to put its light in your eyes
I miss that look in your eyes

(Verse 2)
Around a table we sat and we talked for a while
The child within me can still remember your smile
It's been too long to see you smile

I wasn't there when you were tired of holding on
I like to think the man I knew will live on and on

(Chorus)
Wish I could find a way to take the sun from the sky
Wish I could find a way to put its light in your eyes
I miss that look in your eyes

(Bridge)
Every time I feel that something could turn out right
Every time I feel a day might end alright
I start to think you'll be okay and the world might stop for a minute

I sometimes dream that the clouds will part from the sky
I dream I see the light returning to your eyes
I see that look in your eyes

Wish I could find a way to take the sun from the sky
Wish I could find a way to put its light in your eyes
I miss that look in your eyes
I miss that look in your eyes

Look in your Eyes

Written and recorded by Alyssa Schultz in February 2016.

LYRICS:

(Verse 1)
I know a place where we can hide away
You know I'd never make you stay
I think you'd like it if I asked you to dance
Like you ever stood a chance

(Verse 2)
I know a place where we can see the stars
Forget about our scars
I think I'd like it if you held my hand
Who ever said you can't?

(Chorus)
Take me for a drive before we have to say goodnight
Foggy city views will always make me think of you

Always make me think of you
Those foggy city views

Foggy City Views

Cover of "You've Really Got A Hold On Me" by Smokey Robinson and the Fabulous Miracles.

Recorded by Alyssa Schultz in February 2016.

You've Really Got A Hold On Me (Cover - One-Take Recording)

Written and recorded by Alyssa Schultz in February 2016.

LYRICS:

(Verse 1)
Rain is coming down hard
This gloomy city makes me sad
I didn't play my cards right
I didn't mean to make you mad

(Verse 2) 
Clouds gather at the mountains
I hear the streams are raging down
The flood is warning us to just stay in
Not much fun does that sound

(Chorus)
Would you go for a walk with me, baby?
We'll play in puddles all day
Would you spend your days with me, darling?
What do you say?

(Verse 3)
Playing house
Let's make a fort out of stone
Kiss my mouth
Remember your not alone

(Chorus)
Would you go for a walk with me, baby?
We'll play in puddles all day
Would you spend your days with me, darling?
What do you say?

(Verse 4)
I don't know much about love
I try my best every day
You seem to fit like a glove
Is that what love is these days?

(Chorus)
Would you go for a walk with me, baby?
We'll play in puddles all day
Would you spend your days with me, darling?
What do you say?

Would you go for a walk with me, baby?
We'll play in puddles all day
Would you spend your days with me, darling?
What do you say?
What do you say?

Playing House
