I Want to Die

i heard you died
what'd you do that for
don't you know that no one
overdoses anymore
i know it's hard
your parents love god
they found your pills
and now they won't talk to you

but you and me we found a way
to snort away the things that they say
and the last thing the world needs
is another liar

you said 
do you want die
well its my first time

your mother found you on the floor
makeup a mess, stockings all ripped and torn
you called me a pussy, when we were in your car
i thought the cops would come, your pants were on the floor

but you and me we found a way
to snort away the things that they say
and the last thing the world needs
is another liar

you said do you want to die
well i'm scared to try

i heard you died
what'd you do that for
don't you know that no one
ods anymore
i know it's hard
your parents love god
they found your pills
and now they won't talk to you

you've had some practice i've not had
ambient, coke and pills is too much for anyone to have
when you said hey baby lets od
i said no way thats just not for me
but ill take what you have
don't hold back
i want to walk in to hell with you
yes i want to die

i want to die on my very first try

Landfire (Single Version)

Boy of the Mountain Green

lyrics:

verse1:
so the day goes
I feeling so cold
driving back back
where I last met you
it's getting dark now
switching lanes to
walk in the sunlight
but it's still dark tho
I feeling limb and a bit dull inside
don't you wanna follow me onto the other side
under the sunlight
everything seems bright
but it's no time
for the sun to shine

chorus:
what have you
been up to
I forgot
to ask you
but I fought
without you
I'm sorry 
what you've been through
give me your hand
follow you down
out of my mind
we've got no time
now we transcend 
looking around
out of your mind
and no more time

verse2:
what you wanna do today
do you wanna spend your day with me
your words so colorful
don't dare the day to go
hollow inside of me
or we meet inside of you
talk about things we don't understanding
I'm taking what you're handing
hold on to some things and
live life like I'm spending
colorblind I'm ending
receiving life you're sending
no matter how long
there is no solution
cooling down my mind in a hectic
no more planning my days like a tactic

bridge:
I lose I'm losing ground
I wish you were around
I had to leave this town for the sake of nothing at all
in order to understand my own ways again
I'm painting new pictures and I'm painting again
fill up empty space with all the things that I chase
doing things my own pace still running in their race

chorus

Runaway

A song to mark mp3hugger's 15 year in existence in September 2020. Played by Boise's best indie pop band the Very Most (https://theverymost.bandcamp.com/)

The Very Most - Mp3hugger

‘WHAT DID YOU DO?’ ASK THE ELEPHANT TREES IN THEIR NEW POIGNANT ANTHEM THAT CALLS FOR CHANGE

Release Date: 25 / SEPT 2020 via Incantation Records
'What Did You Do' is a rhetorical, a comment on 2020, the year that changed the world.    A soundtrack for the UK in ‘post lockdown’.
Written by lead singer Martha Phillips during lockdown the band self recorded the song in their homes, and is the first fully self produced track by Martha, who has spent the last 6 months working on her production skills. The lyrics read like a biblical warning; ”there’s a change coming, a mighty flood or something” Martha says, “ In 50 years time where are we going to be, what world will our children live in? When they ask, what did you do, what will you say? We’ve all learnt about the depths of the climate crisis, black lives matter movement, and our unequal society, but what do we actually do about it other than post on social media and use a few woke hashtags. I include myself in this question more than anyone! When I wrote this song I was struggling with the constant wave of ‘bad news’ from 2020, and looked inward. I imagined my future family, looking at me and asking “but mum what did you actually do?”, the answer right now is very little, but by raising the question for myself I hope to inspire others too."

A little piece which I wrote in a day, for Guy Mitchelmores "How to write music challenge". 
Worked short and intense but I'm really happy with the peaceful outcome.
