||||| LYRICS

I’m getting led astray
Swinging left to right 
She was a hero of the day
And a rebel of the night 

This bar’s as busy as hell 
Yet she stands so tall
It always goes so well
Until my back's against the wall 

Rebel Hero, oh my, she can dance to the music
Rebel Hero, oh my, she can dance to the music

Her world doubles in size
The rhythm casts its spell
I see it glowing in her eyes
With every decibel 

She doesn’t mean no harm
But when the stage gets lit 
It’s like a prisoners alarm 
She goes and loses it

Rebel Hero, oh my, she can dance to the music
Rebel Hero, oh my, she can dance to the music
Rebel Hero stole my soul
Oh, I’ve never seen someone so alive

She ain’t no handcuffed soul
Just lives for rock ‘n’ roll
Preachers preach, she ain’t listening
Keep on flying, fiery bird

The rebel don’t pretend 
She loves the fact, she ain't perfect 
We’re all so far from perfect 

Rebel Hero, oh my, she can dance to the music
Rebel Hero, oh my, she can dance to the music
Rebel Hero straight stole my soul
Oh, I’ve never seen someone so alive

My Tears Ricochet - Taylor Swift (Song Cover)

Lyrics:
High expectations 
Underestimated 
She’s got mountains to climb 
Wants to be a good daughter told to be a better wife 
She’s playing Catch up all the time 

O she wanted so much more 
O she had places to see 
But society thought differently 

O man o man 
There goes another piece of her again 
God damn god damn 
Wish she knew that she’s worth so much more 
O girl your walking on a tightrope 
Trying not to fall but the loads getting heavy now 
O man o man 
Some days it’s hard being a woman 

No college degree 
Because he wanted to start a family 
Kids running round her feet while he’s out acting like the life of the party 
Ideally she’s staring out the window 
At the would’ve could’ve been 
 
But this house ain’t a home 
Just walls and paint she’s his little doll wife and he’s playing a game 


O man o man 
There goes another piece of her again 
God damn god damn 
Wish she knew that she’s worth so much more 
O girl your walking on a tightrope 
Trying not to fall but the loads getting heavy now 
O man o man 
Some days it’s hard being a woman 


O man o man 
There goes another piece of her again 
God damn god damn 
Your going to lose her boy if you don’t grow up quickly 
O boy she’s walking on a tightrope all on her own and the load’s getting heavy now 
O man o man 
Some days it’s hard 
Some days it’s hard being a woman

One, two, ready
I'm gonna take mine with you with me
Ah, "Mine," say it again
"Mine of you with me," thank you
One more time
One, two, ready
I'm gonna take mine of you with me
I'm gonna take mine of you with me
I'm gonna take mine of you with me
Like "Rocky Mountain High"
The way John Denver sings

So you say there's a chance for us?
Should I do a dance for once?
You're a family man, but
But

Do you think about Heaven? Oh-oh
Do you think about me?
My pastor told me
"When you leave, all you take
Uh-huh, is your memories"

And I'm gonna take mine of you with me
I'm gonna take mine of you with me

So many mountains too high to climb
So many rivers, so long, but I'm
Doin' the hard stuff, I'm doin' my time
I'm doin' it for us, for our family line

Do you think about Heaven? Oh-oh
Do you think about me?
My pastor told me (I'll do it, I'll do it)
"When you leave, all you take (I did it, I did it)
Uh-huh, is your memories"

And I wanna take mine of you with me
I'm gonna take mine of you with me
Yeah, I'm gonna take mine of you with me
Like "Rocky Mountain High," the way John Denver sings

My sister's first-born child
I'm gonna take that too with me
My grandmother's last smile
I'm gonna take that too with me
It's a beautiful life
Remember that too for me

Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah

Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd

The Grants

Well I came home at half past three with the tequila on my breath and the wine on my sleeve 
You looked at me like I was crazy but I had to laugh cause you did the same thing 
Caught me in town with that crooked mans son you cursed me out and I just had to run 
The taste of freedom never felt so good I’d give anything to feel that way again 

Saturday Night dreamers , Sunday morning praying 
Monday always came our way , Tuesday Wednesday living 
Thursday waiting , Friday let’s starts again 
No we’re not going to miss a thing 

So blame it on my youth 
All the reckless mistakes that I made go ahead blame it on my wild age 
All those one night kisses that turned into two blame it on what careless teens do 
All the alcohol flowing through the night go ahead blame it on the 3 for 2 
If you want something to blame for my untamed way go blame it on my youth   
 
Well I snuck out bout half past three went out the window so you wouldn’t see The getaway car waiting for me 
Laughing like it was going out of fashion lost friends along the way but what can I say 
Sometimes you got to lose to really see the truth 

Saturday night dreamers Sunday morning wishing 
Monday always came our way Tuesday Wednesday living 
Thursday romancing Friday let’s start this thing 
No we’re not gonna miss a thing 

So blame it on my youth 
All the reckless mistakes that I made go ahead blame it on my wild age 
All those one night kisses that turned into two blame it on what careless teens do 
All the alcohol flowing through the night go ahead blame it on the 3 for 2 
If you want something to blame for my untamed way go blame it on my youth

Vaguely Alive

The Big Bang is a cosmic love story about how falling in love can feel like the beginning of the universe. Life can change in an instant when meeting someone special and I thought I had my life planned out in my 20's, but then someone came along and ignited everything. 'The Big Bang' takes indie influences from Mitski and the floaty nostalgia of Lana del rey to create this cinematic romance. I really hope you feel the energy in this song, It's very close to my heart. Its official release is Friday the 21st of March 2025.

☁️ I romanticise everything 🔮

Blending the moody intimacy of Lana Del Rey with the raw emotion of Mitski. GRACiE is a pianist and singer-songwriter crafting indie-tinged songs that hit you right in the feels. Her smooth, crooner voice carries nostalgic lyrics born from a need to capture honest emotions and real moments. You might’ve caught GRACiE's music on BBC 6 Music, UK BBC stations, or even seen her perform at the BBC Introducing concert at the Regal Theatre, which later aired on BBC iPlayer. GRACiE's new single, ‘The Big Bang' is a cosmic love story, a metaphor for that explosive moment when love sparks life into being.

Bio:
I spent most of my childhood travelling Europe with a Big Band. This introduced me to a lot of live music mainly centred around jazz and swing. From this I taught myself piano and joined the band when I was old enough. I also grew up with a healthy dose of glam rock due to my dad being a drummer. From this I decided to create music somewhere in-between, making indie music sprinkled with jazz. I've been called 'moody' and 'serious' when I perform but really i'm lost in the moment and the lyrics. Currently I work with Vibe studios in Manchester where we're continuing to record my upcoming EP.
