Not a Good Judge, the first single from our upcoming album We’re Trying Our Best is about getting out of your own way when you don’t believe you deserve the best. Lead singer/songwriter Joy Deyo: “Not a Good Judge is about pushing past doubt, even when it’s your own. Sometimes you have to put anxiety in its place. It’s about listening to past or future versions of yourself that had or will have more faith in your abilities than you have in the moment.”

Not A Good Judge

Alone In My Room

Happy birthday Will Ferrell.

Pick my thumbs dry,
Did down inside,
If I could find the thing,
That makes me tick,
Blow up the fuse,
Cut off the switch. 

Repression is not regression,
There’s far too much to do,
Than to worry if I’m,
Upset with you.

How nice it’d be,
To just be.

Water me down with other people,
Anything to make me digestible,
Catches me off guard,
How much you have to,
Chew me up,
To swallow. 

Back in hometown,
Same face, same crowd,
If I could find the one,
Who knew me,
When I knew myself,
They were long gone, 
Before I was around.

‘Work on myself’ more like,
Working out the bumps I swept,
Under the carpet,
Stamp ‘em out,
Forget they were ever there. 

How nice it’d be,
To just be. 

Water me down with other people,
Anything to make me digestible,
Catches me off guard,
How much you have to,
Chew me up,
To swallow,
Me. 

I’m sorry I’m just like him,
You don’t deserve this,
Deserve this. 

Water me down with other people,
Anything to make me acceptable.

Water me down with other people,
Anything to make me digestible,
Catches me off guard,
How much you have to,
Chew me up,
To swallow. 
Water me down with other people,
Anything to make me acceptable,
Catches me off guard,
How much you have to,
Chew me up,
To swallow,
Me.

LYRICS

What now?
A night between two friends
Became something to lie about
You’ve lost me in your words
I told you many things you might’ve heard
I’m not original with girls
But you could be the first to be the first
And I could be the worst, I am the worst
I told you I tried to die 
You smiled, we cried, we kissed
We dived and we died
And we lose when we fight
It’s all gone, it’s all right
We hugged and I left
To the sun, wearing red
And I’m gone, and I’m gone
And I’m gone again
Again (that’s right)

Seeing through the green inside your room
I’d shout your name and I keep it real
That’s what I say, I’m not a man
I’m not a stranger
Losing all the battles that I start
I walk into the room, tear it apart
I whisper to the wind to sing your name
I whisper to my friends it’s all the same

“I hope you change for yourself”
(For yourself, yourself)
And I know it’s hard 
When it’s all fine
But it’s just not right
I held your hand (just not right)
Held your hand, let you go
Now I’m walking in the snow
I paint me red and then I go
I can see it, I can see it
I can see it in the goal

Shooting everything I have
To break you out the box
I tried to make your friends my friends
I never knew the cost
I played you the piano, you were crossed
I could feel it, it was salt
I’d love to love you back
I know I didn’t keep the promise though

Resonating a tapestry of loss, hope and human connection, Ike Thomas offers any listener a gentle escape into the tales of an artist paving their way to becoming one of Liverpool's most compelling storytellers.


Ike Thomas, Modern Sky’s newest arrival, released his latest single "Here’s To You" on 20th August. A familiar face in Liverpool’s spirited music scene, Ike began his journey busking in Sefton Park and since began hosting his own open mic nights to share his knowledge and courage with the younger generations, giving them the same chance he had to play for the first time. His dedication to the scene has since seen him become a celebrated fixture of the city's gig circuit.

Weaving his spiritual upbringing with a generous helping of vulnerability, and casting reflections of folk artists before him, Ike is carving out his own evolution of the genre. A nuanced style of humble story telling of the self and others he’s met along the road. His trademark voice, low and softly spoken, along with the music’s persuasive drift, instil a sense of warmth and invites you to jump in and surrender to its undertow.
