Alone with You

Painted Blue
Written by Gregory Dillon

I know I can’t keep praying forever
Bracing the end and my heart is screaming no

We used to dance within the flames
Making love all night right into the day
But now we face the cold
I try to stall from heading home
Cuz I’m way to scared to let you go
And feel alone again

Crying is hard, deepening the pain still
Dear God, feel I lost an Angel
I can’t bare to look back at you
Crying is hard, deepening the pain still
Dear God, feel I lost an Angel
This sad boy is painted blue

Deep in silence, thoughts echo off the ceiling 
Maybe dreaming we’re standing at your door

But in my mind I feel a war
Knowing all I want and what I had before 
Completely stole away 
And like a spell you call my name
And it all comes back a hurricane
The winds of yesterday

Crying is hard deepening the pain still
Dear God, feel I lost an Angel
I can’t bare to look back at you
Crying is hard, deepening the pain still
Dear God, feel I lost an Angel
This sad boy is painted blue

Bloodshot evening, nonstop oh my body’s trembling, I can’t bare to loose
We’re at edge of no return, shaking the door knob turns, one step breaks in two

Painted Blue

Lyrics:
Radio waves
Been scanning through all night
Sifting through haze
Looking for an outbound satellite

Thirty days of hope, longingly I stare
Waiting for reply, but nothing’s there
Bout' leave the room when frequency divides the air

Feel my makeshift heartbeat
Violet high beams in your eye
Be my alien boyfriend racing through the night
Send me constellations
Worn out duffle packin’ light
Lost in deep translation meet me in to the sky

Can’t get enough
Of your morse code outline
Calling your bluff
Begging me to come outside

Smoke and engine dust
Revving in the wind
Level down the thrust as you decend
Opening the door, oh my mind is crippling

Feel my makeshift heartbeat
Violet high beams in your eye
Be my alien boyfriend racing through the night
Send me constellations
Worn out duffle packin’ light
Lost in deep translation meet me in to the sky

Weightless footsteps, holding our breath
I'm struck anyhow
Star-crossed, now here, spanning light years
Just us, fading out

Alien Boyfriend

LOVE AGAIN

Lyrics
Lavender lightning 
Tracing my fingers over you
Oh as you hold me
Kinetic potential starts to bloom
Drifting electric afternoon

Ready the feeling 
I can wait for you and if you want me too
Steady the feeling
Just say you want me too

Chorus x2
I wanna love again, wanna love again, wanna love again with you
I wanna break and bend until we mend wanna love again with you 

Somehow but maybe
Feeling the voltage running through
Little bit Hazy
Oh baby what am I to do

Ready for feeling 
I can wait for you and if you want me too
steady the feeling
just say you want me too

I wanna love again, wanna love again, wanna love again with you
I wanna break and bend until we mend wanna love again with you 

like a dream your sailing away your sailing away
like a dream your sailing away your sailing away

I wanna love again, wanna love again, wanna love again with you
I wanna break and bend until we mend wanna love again with you

Love Again

Where We're Going
Written by Gregory Dillon

Lyrics:

You sailing from behind, with soft set mind, step off the train
Me smiling out of pose, no words to throw, where we're going

I think that we should head to the rooftop
Clear as the night and skyscraper shadows
Running around and smoking tabaco
And it feels so right
I'm leaning in, my head on your should
Inside your arms I feel so much warner
Can we stay here and feel this forever? 
It would make my night

Time drifting in disguise, our last goodbyes, holding to leave
Now looking in my eyes, you've read my mind, where we're going

I think that we should head to the rooftop
Clear as the night and skyscraper shadows
Running around and smoking tabaco
And it feels so right
I'm leaning in, my head on your should
Inside your arms I feel so much warner
Can we stay here and feel this forever? 
It would make my night

In the night, In the night, I hear yah, I hear yah calling
Just like a wolf I hear you cry
In the night, In the night, I hear yah, I hear yah calling
Up to the roof I'm sending my reply

I think that we should head to the rooftop
Clear as the night and skyscraper shadows
Running around and smoking tabaco
Cuz it feels so right, it would make my night

Where We're Going

Vacuum

Shaking over envy, automated overdrive
Playing with so many, a promise broken every night
Naked in the flames, I do it all again, Heaven is to blame
It never was you… Never at all

I’m sorry that I let you go
Forever I will be alone
You know I tried to hurt you
You know I tried to hurt you
I feel terribly good when I’m dancing in a vacuum

Ritalin and propane, doesn’t take me anywhere
Imprisoned in the fast lane, trying to avoid your stare
Passion is a lie, Taken over time, And everything I want
It never was you… Never at all

I’m sorry that I let you go
Forever I will be alone
You know I tried to hurt you
You know I tried to hurt you
I feel terribly good when I’m dancing in a vacuum

You know I tried to hurt you
You know I tried to hurt you
I feel terribly good when I’m dancing in a vacuum

Lyrics:

Lovely

Kinda a got new thing, yah
Something outta nothin’

Heaven is a curse inside my mind
Running in the circle of your eye
No where else to run, nowhere to hide 
Praying to stop this time

A nightmare, A daydream
Oh baby what was i thinking
A moment, now fleeting
Never stood a chance to just be lovely
Never stood a chance, Never stood a chance, baby
Never stood a chance… lovely

Is it by the way that you kiss, so so soft in the city light
Knowing that this love bliss, making me cry tonight

Heaven is a curse inside my mind
Running in the circle of your eyes
No where else to run, nowhere to hide 
Praying to stop this time

A nightmare, A daydream
Oh baby what was i thinking
A moment, now fleeting
Never stood a chance to just be lovely
Never stood a chance, Never stood a chance, baby
Never stood a chance… 

Praying, praying, praying lately
Baby please don't, please don't hate me
Crying softly, I am lonely
Now

A nightmare, A daydream
Oh baby what was i thinking
A moment, now fleeting
Never stood a chance to just be lovely
Never stood a chance, Never stood a chance, baby
Never stood a chance… lovely

lovely.

Plastic Ferrari 

Killing the quiet you know so well
insequities I curse myself 
I’m bitter and shaken the sweetest temptation
Checkin’ if you call
Give me a minute to quit it a sad farewell

Smiling desperate just like a barbie
Crying in your plastic ferrari 
Picture perfect tears are an irony
Fake it till we make it tonight
Play pretend then turn out the lights
Sinking deeper into reality

Driving for hours, I pass your house 
Down to the moment but still have doubts
With flowers I panic, a hopeless romantic, secrets in the mail
Facing away from truth I’m not your girl

Smiling desperate just like a barbie
Crying in our plastic ferrari 
Picture perfect tears are an irony
Fake it till we make it tonight
Play pretend then turn out the lights
Sinking deeper into reality
I scared and standing on the line
So baby please ease my mind
I feel so hollow tonight

I can’t let go, but baby I know
Your stoic ways, your empty gaze
Gamble alone, begging to know
Will our best days just fade

Smiling desperate just like a barbie
Crying in our plastic ferrari 
Picture perfect tears are an irony
Fake it till we make it tonight
Play pretend then turn out the lights
Sinking deeper into reality

Sunset is the fifth track off artist Gregory Dillon's first EP Sad Magic. 

Sunset lyrics

Crossing your mind, It's in your eyes
As if something is daring you in my sight
Now, I wander in spite 
How you pull my heart strings
And I’m just thinking out loud, can we stay another night?

And you feel, And your feeling so aware
And you want, And you wanna take it there


Stop hold off, I can’t go back
All the sky is burning fast
Call your name, I watch you turn into the sunset
And here we’re fading, on borrowed time
And if you’re waiting, I’ll stay behind
I see your eyes, and baby hope you notice mine


Edgin’ me on, the falling light
And caressing my hand, knowing I’ll bite
As we shoulder outside
How you pull my heart strings
And I just say it out loud, can I, stay another night

Stop hold off, I can’t go back
All the sky is burning fast
Call your name, I watch you turn into the sunset
And here we’re fading, on borrowed time
And if you’re waiting, I’ll stay behind
I see your eyes, and baby hope you notice mine

Take me back though i know its a road to never
As I walk kicking stones and my heart considers

Sunset

Swing Swing lyrics

Days swiftly come and go.
I'm dreaming of her
She's seeing other guys
Emotions they stir
The sun is gone.
The nights are long
And I am left while the tears fall
Did you think that I would cry,
On the phone?
Do you know what it feels like,
Being alone?
I'll find someone new
swing, swing from the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love.
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again
Wish cast into the sky
I'm moving on
Sweet beginnings do arise
She knows I was wrong
The notes are old,
They bend, they fold
And so do I to a new love
Did you think that I would cry,
On the phone?
Do you know what it feels like,
Being alone?
I'll find someone new
swing, swing from the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love.
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again
Bury me
(You thought your problems were gone)
Carry me
(Away, away, away)
swing, swing from the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love.
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again
To carry on again
To carry on again
