SHEABOU - This Is The Start

I had this guitar lick kicking around for ages and ages. I didn't really know what to do with it until my friend Lucoline (https://soundcloud.app.goo.gl/GAJYT) had a go at it and we came up with this.

Lyrics:
The moon looks sharp tonight
cutting through the atmosphere
dark shadows pierce the light
so lonely and austere

my breath fogs up like ice
but all my thoughts are crystal clear
I won't let you break my stride
I am getting out of here

Sharp footsteps pound behind
stirring up my hopes and fears
your voice rings clear and bright
it echoes in my ears

Such force and eloquence
that every word is insincere
I won't let you break my stride
I am getting out of here

What do you take me for?
You don't love me anymore
and I'm not the girl to stick around 
just to numb your pain
Your broken and wounded soul
it only keeps you in control
but I realized and it's hit me like
a bullet to my brain

I see reflections of you in the crowd
No use keeping up with you now
Too many miles left to go
To waste my time chasing a ghost
I know that you're no longer there
Yet I keep on turning around
I still see your face in the crowd
Too many miles left to go

Left this behind, it's all in my mind
(Please just)
You should be dead to me, why won't you go?
(Let me go)
Left this behind, nothing to find
(Can't keep)
You should be dead to me, why wont you go?
(Chasing ghosts)
Why won't you go?

I want to leave all these shadows behind
To pack up my car and just drive
Nothing left here for me now
Except some ghosts in the crowd
Yet I keep on turning my head
I can't get a hold of the thread
Too many miles left to go
To waste my time chasing a ghost

Left this behind, it's all in my mind
(Please just)
You should be dead to me, why won't you go?
(Let me go)
Left this behind, nothing to find
(Can't keep)
You should be dead to me, why wont you go?
(Chasing ghosts)

Named after Nick’s childhood imaginary friend, Eleanor Collides started life as a lockdown project in March of 2021 when a group of London based musicians got together to support each other in writing, recording and releasing music. Named The MusiCollective, this group has produced acts such as Pisgah, Colin Tyler, Corporate Drone and Lucoline

'People Are Taller in Real Life',  the debut album by Eleanor Collides, falls somewhere between Indie, Alternative Rock and Dream Pop. On this album Nick draws on a wide range of influences from the 90s alt-rock of Alice In Chains and Hole, British Indie bands such as Manic Street Preachers and Depeche Mode's moody synth pop
