Run does not count - 2

It’s easy to blame the other person in a breakup, but what about when your own complicity in a toxic dynamic comes to shake you awake? Objectively is about that haunting realization, soaring from a lilting acoustic opening to a full country-rock arrangement as the truth sets in.

Lyrics:

[Verse I]
never thought of my love as a loaded gun
but I'm objectively trying to take you down
'cause I always want your eyes on me
but then they're not on the road where they ought to be
and neither of us knew
and that's no excuse

[Verse II]
I can't say your name without feeling like
it will explode if I don't say it right
and tear a hole so wide that the whole world sees
and gets its own ideas about you and me
well, they don't understand
but don't they again?

[Chorus]
this is not how good love starts
this is not good love

[Verse III]
would have given my lungs to keep you around
but I'm objectively doing better now
because if I never dance with you
then I'm not second-guessing my every move
and I miss how it hurts
but isn't that worse?

[Bridge]
and this is my conclusion, honey
that you work better as a memory
because reality is messy
but we are dark objectively
I swear I meant the whole thing truly
but you work better as a memory
so honey, don't text me
so honey, don't text me

Honey

Lyrics:
Last week I went and saw a psychic
Not because I really believe in magic 
I just wanted to hear that I could be happy
She said I was damned, it was $5 for a reading
(Cash or credit?)

Long gone are the dreams
And the healing
Lost my imagination
Now it's the treason
Playing the victim
Self-destruction at its finest

I’m so sick of myself
But I don't wanna deal with it
I can't burn in this hell 'cause 
I'm already at the bottom of the deep end
I think I'm losing myself
Can't recognise who I am
Won't catch me turn around
'Cause I can't face the stranger in the mirror

My older brother lives in glamor
He's a criminal defence and naval lawyer
They say don't succumb to societal pressure
I can't help but feel like a failure (Ugh)

Long gone are the hopes
And the growing
A healthy way of coping
Now it's the hoaxing
Taunting the broken
Self-destruction at its finest

I’m so sick of myself
But I don't wanna deal with it
I can't burn in this hell 'cause 
I'm already at the bottom of the deep end
I think I'm losing myself
Can't recognise who I am
Won't catch me turn around
'Cause I can't face the stranger in the mirror

My baby kept our love a secret
I told him it's fine, it's just you and me but
Turns out I wasn't the only person
If only I was a better person
I'm so sick of my

I’m so sick of myself (So sick of myself)
But I don't wanna deal with it
I can't burn in this hell 'cause 
I'm already at the bottom of the deep end
I think I'm losing myself (I'm losing myself)
Can't recognise who I am
Won't catch me turn around
'Cause I can't face myself

I tell myself never again, again, again, again, again
But I do it again, again, again, again, again
I tell myself never again, again, again, again, again
But I do it again
And again
And again
Stranger in the mirror

Lyrics:
This new boy, he texted me back after a week
He’s busy working hard for our little life, gosh he’s so sweet!
And so mature, he's so in love

I can't be more wrong  
He don't want me, he wants the control
And I fed right into his ego
This world is just too complicated
I prefer the one that I created 'cause

When the one don't mean anyone
I pretend I don't give a fuck
When close isn't close enough
I burn the idea of love
Self-inflicted misery
To stay in his periphery
When love isn't love at all
I keep it delusional
Oh!

He's playing hard to get
But I know his plot and I'll play with him
Yeah, he bought a brand new yellow shirt
Guess what my favourite colour is

He knows Taylor Swift, a coincidence?
He knows a friend of a friend who's friend of his
That clearly means we're meant to be
Our first kid’s name’s Ace

When the one don't mean anyone
I pretend I don't give a fuck
When close isn't close enough
I burn the idea of love
Self-inflicted misery
To stay in his periphery
When love isn't love at all
I keep it delusional
Oh!

He's got red flags
Dick wags
Waving around
Get me an airbag
I'm gonna crash straight to the ground
God, what am I doing with myself?
Need him like O2, I'm not proud
I swear I'm fine I don't need help
(Help...)

When the one don't mean anyone
I pretend I don't give a fuck
When close isn't close enough
I burn the idea of love
Just opened a joint account
We'll save up to buy that house
I’m done being logical
'Cause I’m fucking delusional!
Oh!
Oh!

DELULU

„Hallo Deutschland“ – Das Debütalbum das rebelliert, provoziert und gleichzeitig Spaß macht. 
Nach unserem gefeierten Mixtape legen wir jetzt richtig los: Hier verschmelzen treibende Electro-Bässe, bissige Punk-Attitüde und eingängige Melodien zu einem völlig neuen Klangkosmos. Unkonventionell, gesellschaftskritisch und absolut tanzbar – dieses Album ist nichts für die Nebenbei-Playlist.
Songs wie „Im Bann der Hundebesitzer“ oder „Reich“ greifen Themen auf, die jeder kennt, und verpacken sie in Texte, die nachhallen. Ein Debüt, das mitreißt: ehrlich, roh und voller Energie.

Lyrics:
I know that look when I see it
So I blushed and bluffed you weren't my type
To get you riled
You don't have the guts to admit it
But it's been playing on your mind
At night

You know with precision the way I dysfunction
The secrets you whisper in the dark when you're drunken
With every touch you know just what you're doing to me
Baby

'Cause I'm just a casualty
In the battle of your reality
Yeah, you want me
So you kiss girls, pretending it's us
Woah oh oh
And every night like gravity
You pull me to your vicinity
'Cause you know I'll float in your orbit
For as long as i live
Woah oh oh
I'll float in your orbit

You bury your head in the "what if"s
While we dance under Melbourne's city lights
In desperate times
I'm your solace baby
I know that your morals' in conflict
And I'm not worth putting up a fight
Or worth a try
You know just what you're doing to me

I'm just a casualty
In the battle of your reality
Yeah, you want me
So you kiss girls, pretending it's us
Woah oh oh
And every night like gravity
You pull me to your vicinity
'Cause you know I'll float in your orbit
For as long as i live
Woah oh oh

So you kiss girls
And you just want to
Keep me a secret
Too cowardly to face it
You know that I get it
I swear that I get it
But don't you know that it's killing me slowly?

You'd dare to kiss me
If it was that easy
I know that you fear me
'Cause you think that I'm pretty
Perpetually spinning
Right there when you need me
But don't you know that it's killing me slowly to orbit round you?

Oh, oh
Right there when you need me
'Til dawn 'cause you're lonely

I'm just a casualty
In the battle of your reality
Yeah, you want me
So you kiss girls, pretending it's us
Woah oh oh
And every night like gravity
You pull me to your vicinity
'Cause you know
I know
You know
Woah oh oh
I'll float in your orbit

This Broken Heart of Mine

Jezebel

I Don't Want to Go

I Love-Love-Love paying and singing this one.  And that's lucky because, after all, it is the Only Law.

The Only Law Is Love

'Her James Dean' is a dynamic blend of modern Nashville-style country, Alt-Rock, and touches of 'slow jam' R&B with a hook that catches you on the 1st listen. It is the 1st single to follow up Jonathan Ingram's debut EP 'Better Late Than Never' from 2015, and will be featured on his forthcoming 2nd EP 'Whiskey Business' set for release in Fall 2017.

Her James Dean

Folie A Deux

Ginger cream, sweet to taste
I don’t know how commonplace it is
to fantasize about someone for so long.
But to think another place or time,
we’d pull off victimless crime,
avoided all of this heartache
is real enough to dream about.

Do you think I
ever could 
rely on this?
It’s a feeling 
that’s escaped me in the past 
My hesitance is complicated.

(Some times I want you.
Sunbeams fall on me
& take me away for a while.)

Don't get it wrong I still think about you all the time.
and now wonder if I’d even feel this way about you
If I hadn’t tried so hard to counterfeit the way you looked at him that night, 
in hindsight it's revealing.

Do you think I 
ever could
rely on this?
It's a feeling
that’s betrayed me in the past.
Romantic or
exaggerated?

(Some times I want to.
Sunbeams fall on me
& take me away for a while.)

Is it real if I think it?
Is it real enough?
It’s real if I think it.
Is it real enough to chance?
Is it real if I think it?
Is it real enough?
It’s real enough I figure.

That's all I ever wanted from you (x8)
