Lyrics:

I FEEL IT NOW THE WIND BLOWS
THE COLD IT EATS INTO MY BONES
YOU TOOK MY HOME, MY LIFE, MY PRIDE

NOW THINKING ‘BOUT THE FUTURE
IT DOESN’T EVEN MATTER
THIS TWILIGHT-ZONE YOU DROPPED ON ME
YOU REALLY BROKE MY MIND

AND IF U SAY YOU’RE GONNA LET ME BE AS FREE AS
NOT EVEN ANYONE
I’D RATHER YOU WERE ME

I WAKE UP EVERY MORNING 
AND PACK ALL MY BELONGINGS
THE ROAD IS LONG ‘TIL I NEXT EAT

NOW SITTING ON THE PAVEMENT
CAP IN HAND IT’S TORMENT
TO SEE YOU LAUGH AND JUST WALK BY
I KNOW I WON’T LAST LONG

AND IF U SAY YOU’RE GONNA LET ME BE AS FREE AS
NOT JUST ANYONE U WANT ME TO BE
THEN THROW IT BACK IN MY FACE
LIKE I’M NOTHING
NOT EVEN ANYONE
I’D RATHER YOU

AND IF U SAY YOU’RE GONNA LET ME BE AS FREE AS
NOT JUST ANYONE U WANT ME TO BE
THEN THROW IT BACK IN MY FACE
LIKE I’M NOTHING
NOT EVEN ANYONE
I’D RATHER YOU WERE ME

Sight for Some Eyes

Ready For the Big Time

All my life I've been, walking 'round with my
Feet like lead and my head in the clouds
Couldn't wait to pro, crastinate feel like
Every day I'd say later not now 
  
Waiting for the dream to die
So I can say at least I tried
But I've finally found the power to say

I'm ready for the big time,
I'm ready for the big time, can you hear me
I'm ready for the big time, oh yeah
I'm ready for the big time, ain't no stoppin me now

Just you try, and put the brakes on me
I'll leave you for dust, yeh you better believe
Re-found love, in a soulless place
Got my mojo working, so show me the stage

Workin every day and night,
Trying to keep the dream alive
And I've finally found the power to say

I'm ready for the big time,
I'm ready for the big time, can you hear me
I'm ready for the big time, oh yeah
I'm ready for the big time, ain't no stoppin me now

From my heart's where these words come from I'm still 
Grateful for jammin every night
Time to make a name for myself playing
This guitar like my life's on the line

Armwrestling - Big Wednesday

An acoustic demo of a brand new track.  Has been performed live both solo acoustic and with full rock band.  A lament for the independent musician...

Two Steps

Acoustic demo of a new song.  This is usually performed live with two guitars, piano and three vocals - it will be getting the full treatment for my second album, currently in the early planning stages.  

Apologies for the hiss - I hope you enjoy all the same!

Don't Recognise Me

An acoustic demo of a brand new track, usually performed live with full rock band.  The sound quality is a bit hissy, but you get the idea!  This track will feature on my new album, currently in planning.

I hope you enjoy!
