3 Spyglass demos from 2013, previously unreleased 

Detonator

Written by Lauren Mayberry, Iain Cook, Martin Doherty
Originally performed by CHVRCHES 

I've been super excited to see CHVRCHES tomorrow, and this has to be my favourite song they do. One-take acoustic cover straight to my phone. 

Recover

Another song I'd written but never recorded, this one always resonated over the years and was always on loop in my skull. It's only 3 chords, but that's possibly why it stuck in my head. 

It's 3AM and I'm wondering why I can't sleep
While the world revolves outside
You dream oblivious to the silent screams, the things I hear inside
Somnambulist, pointing a gun against his head
So if you don't think there's a chance for him,
Can you step right in and pull the trigger?
 
Is it something I should tell you?
Or do you already know?
Are the signs you give misread, or am I just being slow?
 
A promise etched in stone has been eroded by the fickle winds of fate
Didn't want to form these ties, I should simplify, and cut straight to the chase
Irrational, going against my common sense
Ignoring the voices in my head telling me that she's just a girl; just another girl...
 
Is it too late to start over
and pretend we never met? 
Don't wish for something you can't have
Don't wish for something you'll regret
 
Sure I'll ask you to come inside
Sit down and we can talk a while
I'll show you all the secrets I have drowned
She said she's never coming down
Pull off your new shoes
Don't remember what was said
Pointing a gun against his head
He's pointing a gun against his head.
