thank you Kirsti for(most of) the lyrics x

Step away from your phone, my friend
The devil’s got his eye on your DMs
What-did-you-think would happen then,
You’d cast out your line and reel them in? 
Songbirds of-a-certain-age 
Should-learn-to-pick-the-locks-of their own cage

Are you trapped or just away?
Someone-changed-the-locks on your next-stay
While you chose to walk away
Someone-changed things today

She can’t win. She won’t lose  She can’t win. She won’t lose 

The shy ones fear the stage
Someone changed things today

Gilded Cage

It's Zed not Zee . I said it’s Zed not Zee. Not Zee !
C’mon. Well Tell me . Well do you want to know a secret
And If I tell you will you keep it. huh. Will you keep it? Will you keep it? Oh 
There's too much space in the room. People need to say something new.
Listen. You don’t know what you are missing. Well there’s a better way of talking. It’s not too late to fix your squawking. An option?
I know you , you know me. I know its Zed not Zee 
I know you , but you know me. But I know it’s Zed not Zee

Zed Not Zee

Can you taste blood?
My aching bones 
Just take your drops 
That’s how it goes
You hear the sighs
The creaks and groans
The sound of the earth 
and the noise of the stones 

We sense the mood, the feel, the atmosphere 
the everything


It’s minus 3 and almost dawn- playing Mario just to keep warm
I’m in the system, On my knees. Guess everyone has this disease . 
I wake at 5, confused and ill . There's a seagull on my windowsill.
Let’s go out fighting. One last fling. They cannot break 
The Everything

The Everything

This is a new and strange environment at first, this, suddenly finding yourself in orbit.

When I was a child I would sometimes move my bed to the other side of my room.
Just for a change of the usual scene. But I wasn’t a weirdo, I was being sixteen.
Years later in a room with no en-suite.
I made a bed from an old worn-out fitted-sheet
I bought a used shitty Talbot Horizon.
400 quid and it broke down every week.

Every week. Every night. Every time that the light wasn’t quite right.
When someone says “Last night, did you see the moon?”
Well you-should-have-told-me-yesterday-afternoon

No I’m OK. On my own. It’s never easy when you’re in a different time-zone
I met a girl. With great cheek-bones. 
I said I’m not inter-ested just let it go
She had tattoos. On her ankle-bone
She said I’m weird, I-said-I-just-like-being-on my own

Remember that time when you thought I did
and we fought, then you left, and I sulked, then we both hid.
You never said sorry, and I never brought it up
so we lived pretty much in silence for a month.
You’ll hate me for this, we were both in the wrong. 
Both on a learning curve, both getting on. 
It’s a bit like yoghurt. Let me explain. I think I always just liked plain.

owwwhhh Forget about it. owwwwhhh Forget about it.

IDK
Well how long is this going to take?
I don't know
Can I see it, can I touch it, will it break?
I don't know
What about fate is there something in that?
I don't know
So how about your thoughts on Schrodinger's cat?
I don't know
We could stand around and pretend to like Descartes 
But I would rather sit alone and listen to my heart

A tender kiss, or Taylor Swift I don't know
A bit of George. Or a bit of Prince I don't know
I can’t decide. I won’t decide I don't know

I DON'T KNOW
How long is this going to take?

WFM

Its April and a quarter past 4
Got my plan and my contacts mapped out on a corkboard
Just thinking of the best place to stand
Take a breath take a minute be a man be a good man

Don't feel bad just feel free
Not everything we do has to work for me
No plan A no plan B
Not everything in life has to work for me

Not everything has to work for me
Not everything has to work for me

Be a good man

Not everything in life has to work for me
Not everything in life has to work for me

Work 4 Me

AGS

Hear me
I mean this sincerely
Let me tell bout you my theory
Of how I need you. Clearly
Here we..   ..go..
	No-one-knows-that-we-met-in-a-bookstore
	They-just-say-we-look-good-on-the-dancefloor


		Before we met.Before we kissed
		I think I always dreamt of being on your playlist
		Hey whats the rush. It wont be long
		I'm happy hanging out just waiting for a good song

## how many tickles does it take to make an octopus laugh. It takes Ten Tickles. Tentacles you see . 

		I'll take the win. I'll take the hit.
		I think I always dreamt of being on your playlist
		You take your time. It wont be long
		I feel the DJ is about to play a good song

		Let's try to change. I made a list
		Then you can add it to your ever changing playlist
		And when you leave. Well-can-I come along?
		Let's time our exit so we're leaving on a good song

A GOOD SONG

I do my best. But I can do better I know
By the water this sticky weather and more
Some things are there to remember you know.
I let things flow. But don't let them go
There by the lake we can hear feelings break. 
So many episodes..

Cry. I cry. I often cry. Our lives are like a dragonfly

A flash of light. Emeralds and sapphires unite
One look. With no awkward pauses. Alive.
Side by side. Just alive.

Effortlessly flying by. 
All my love my only dragonfly.
