Lyrics: 

Silver linings weigh heavy in hopeful minds
And as I'm waiting for my lucky stars to align
I'll wear my armour to protect me from the rain
Because these metal shards are pelting down again
I know that storm clouds are waiting for me
But I'll still plant my apple tree

It don't matter how long we get to waltz around the sun
As long as I get to dance with my sweet someone

Let's surprise the puppet masters and cut away our strings
But still do the jig they taught us 'till we find our set of wings
I'll tread on your toes and you can show me the way
We'll write songs of love like a romantic cliche
Words that need to be said will crumble apart
We'll stitch up the wounds of two stolen hearts

It don't matter how long we get to waltz around the sun
Just as long as I get to dance with my sweet someone

The moon in burning red gives away his old halo
He's seen all there is to see and he knows all there is to know
So I'll look upon the universe and I'll try connecting the dots
When I finally stop seeing stripes and start to see the spots

It don't matter how long we get to waltz around the sun
I'm just glad that had the chance to dance with my sweet someone







Sweet Someone

Sorry the recording is a bit crackly in places, it's recorded on my phone. 

Lyrics: 

Oh life would be easy
If I could hurt only me
I've been the villain leaking cruel
Set it up and played the fool
Seen the light whilst starting fires
Been the victim
Been the one
Packed your bags when I was done
Tried to hide in the white lies

Oh I'm sorry now
I never meant to make you cry

Oh hearts could be freely
If we could just leave them be
I've been the monster, been the clown
Tried to bring you up when you're feeling down
Saw a spark behind the shadow
Tried to be a hero 
But I drowned
Is it too late to turn around
Before I'm tied to the white lies

Oh I'm sorry now
That I never came to say goodbye

Oh I'm sorry now
I never meant to make you cry
Oh I'm sorry now
That I never came to say goodbye

Sorry Now

Lyrics: 
First time words fell from your lips
My mind totally eclipsed by the magic of you
First time I ever saw you smile
My heart stopped just for a while
For the wonder of you

And I was sure for the first time
That you should be mine

First time I ever wrote you a song
I stared at pages all night long
Afraid I'd scare you somehow
First time we stood under the moon
And I sang all those silly tunes
Well those words escape me now

And I was sure for the first time
That you could be mine

The first time that we shared a kiss
I found it harder to resist
Saying those three little words
First time I ever saw you cry
I watched your tears float to the sky
And dance amongst the birds

And I was sure for the first time
That you would be mine

Last time words fell from your lips
My mind totally eclipsed by the magic of you
Last time I ever saw you smile
My heart stopped just for a while
For the wonder of you

And I was sure for the last time
That you'd always be mine



For The First Time

 

Lyrics:

Remember when we built
A home
From sticks and Stones
And a rose
Was just a thing that grows 
Amongst the weeds
And attracts the bees

Remember how it felt
To roam 
our road alone
In the hope
no-one would ever know
That we'd been
Beyond the boundaries we'd agreed

Ready or not, here I come
Take me back where I belong

Remember how we'd sit
Legs swinging on the wall
Tip toed pretending to be tall
Hide the sweets
To keep the peace

Remember, side by side
We stood up to the world
Never wanted dinner to be called
More time please
So we can dream

Ready or not, here I come
Take me back where I belong

Ready or not, here I come
I open my eyes
And we're gone. 


Remember When

Lyrics:

You'd think by now we'd know
Love is a fear of being alone
And you'd think the definition
Of happiness was 'longing for repetition' 

Here we go again
We're all human in the end
Here we go again 
We're not lost if we pretend

You'd think by now we'd see
Hate's easier to feel than agony
And you'd think the definition
Of sadness was 'resigning to repetition'

Here we go again
We're all human in the end
Here we go again 
We're not lost if we pretend

Here We Go Again

This is a terrible recording and I'm sorry. I've tried to do something a bit different to the usual things I write... :/

Lyrics:

I like how each sentence 
Begins with an eye
I like the way that you close them 
To preach your advice
And you're too blind to see only fools think they're wise
You hide desolation in whiskey and whines

Come on then here's your chance
Tell it as it is if you can
Try breaking my heart
It was never whole at the start
It was never whole at the start

I clung to your words 
Like a mayfly to spring
But a mayfly will die
The day it grows wings
There's a thin line to cross if you swim or you sink
I don't think that I'm bait, yet seem bound by your strings


Never Whole



Lyrics: 

Cross my heart and hope to die
A promise is easy to come by
But if they should make you cry
Come to me
Come to me

Sometimes it won't seem fair
Unless you're blissfully unaware
But if you've got something to share
Come to me
Come to me

I know that I will make
Too many mistakes
Just know that I am here
Just know that I am here

There are things we just can't mend
Cause all good things come to an end
But if you ever need a friend
Come to me
Come to me
 


Come To Me

Lyrics:

Fork and knife skewiff on the plate 
I've dropped my T's and pronounced it haitch
These are things that I can change
But what you gonna do about that face?
Your face

You'd be fine if you were just less miserable
I'd be lying if I told you it was fixable
Even Picasso wouldn't paint you that weird
I hate the space between your ears

Bite off more than I can chew
Try to change to fit your view
These are things that I still do
I hope your day's as nice as you
'Cause you're not

You'd be fine if you were just less miserable
A face like yours should be criminal
Even Picasso wouldn't paint you that weird
I hate the space between your ears

You'd be fine if you were just less miserable
I'd be lying if I told you it was fixable
Even Picasso wouldn't paint you that weird
I hate the space between your ears
I hate the space between your ears


I Hate The Space Between Your Ears



Pack it up in a bag for life
You move off go because you weighted all your dice
Even a clover with infinite leaves
Wouldn't give you the luck that you need
But keep looking
Keep looking my friend

Forget what it is to know yourself 
Pass the control to someone else
And there you stand with trembling knees
Staring into the eyes you can't keep
But keep looking
Keep looking my friend

There's only one way up
But there's seven ways down 
There's only one way up
But it's too late now

Hide yourself behind that smile
Accept the guilt and end your trial
And now you beg at pitiless feet
Who won't hear the truth from a cheat
But keep looking
Keep looking my friend

Keep Looking My Friend

Lyrics:

Don't wear Crocs on escalators
Or try to climb
Your feet might get mangled
Or your children may die
"That escalated quickly"
Is just an excuse
That the injured may try

Follow escalator etiquette
'Cause humans are so delicate
And if you fall you'll just keep falling
Your injuries will look appalling
Escalator etiquette
So busy bees won't get upset
And if your fed up of conforming
Don't blame me I'm just informing

If someone stands too close
And breaths all over your neck
You might want to check
You're not stood on the left
The left is for walkers
If you break that rule in London
Then they wish for your death

The brush along the side
Is not for cleaning your shoes
Although conveniently placed
They're risky if they're misused
And don't face backwards
If you oppose the motion
Your asking to get bruised

Follow escalator etiquette
'Cause humans are so delicate
And if you fall you'll just keep falling
Your injuries will look appalling
Escalator etiquette
So busy bees won't get upset
And if your fed up of conforming
Just take the stairs.
