We Are

wild flower trapped in a bell jar 
starts to lean 
says , I need salt sand and sea breeze 
lay us down in an open windy field 
amongst the frozen grass
as the moon watches over us 
we welcome that freeze 
for a moment we're free
I take a traipse at night along the river tyne 
tell me your story orion and I’ll try to tell you mine 
we’ll be swept away anyway with the tides of time 
light house leans heavy on the old dock 
sighs forget me not, as he crashes to the sea 
and the herring gulls all screech 
for the grief of what they’ve seen 
I take a traipse at night along the river tyne    
tell me your story orion and I’ll try to tell you mine 
we’ll be swept away anyway with the tides of time 
moorland, raw wild and true
planted in her cliffs and heather 
from the grounds we grew
the cracks in this valley start to show 
how was we to know 
the cracks in this valley start to show 
and its beautiful 

Orion (demo)

Lyrics: 

Our home is an old t25, 
Worn out tires roll on through the night, 
And the moon the she follows on by our side,
By our side 

And the trees grow tall, oh taller up-ahead,
Stop at the beach, so the dogs can stretch their legs 
And feel the sea breeze, 
Cold sand between our feet

Well the road is a dangerous place for some, 
But for us its our safe haven 

Run to he mountain side, 
Where the weather is changing and wild ,
Worn feet, strong hearts, bright souls, eyes wide
Lay under stars, flames burning up into the night 
Warming our cold skin, somethings changing within 

Well the road is a dangerous place for some. 
But for us its our safe haven,

This our place, this is our calling,
Yes, this is where we are born to be,
wild and free

Well the road is a dangerous place for some, 
But for us its our safe haven 


Safe Haven

Wargs

Lyrics: 

I watch as the water swirls in the rocks beneath my feet
Oh man, this gentle sea breeze could be my defeat 
Oh such a kind love
But much too harsh for me
And oh so a gentle touch 
But much too heavy 

My dreams that come in such beautiful colour
Make this world when I wake seem duller 
Throw me that life rope please dear 
And rap it around my shoulder 
God knows that I’ll to hold on 
But i know that I’m getting older 

Oh carrion crow feather 
Tug at my teather, tug at my brain 
Oh carrion crow feather
What ever the weather
We are the same 

Pale, good sunlight, drape your worn warmth around 
Cold cherub moonlight, send me to the ground
And hold to me not to your promises,
When you know that I cannot keep them 
And I’m sorry it came to this, my unfamiliar friend 
 
Place wild fields beneath my feat 
And wide skies above me 
Come starlings my darlings 
Swoop and rise and sing 

Oh carrion crow feather 
Tug at my teather, tug at my brain 
Oh carion crow feather
What ever the weather
We are the same 

Crow & The Carrion


Lyrics: 

pebbled roads, lined with woodbine
be my ally be my alibi 
come words, visit me freely 
on the darkest hour of the equinox
come cure this brain block 

come trees and bright gasoline 
show me fire worth fighting 
keep me fighting

all those years spent wrenched 
over an untruthful life
all those years spent hell bent 
never knowing why,
oh such an delicate lie 
oh such a lie 

like a beast it was was raging 
uncontrollable and aching 
always out of place, always in doubt
on the sidelines as I crept out

I was a caribou
fighting with the bears and wolves
with nothing but horn and hooves 

all those years spent wrenched 
over an untruthful life
all those years spent hell bent 
never knowing why,
oh such a delicate lie , 
oh such a lie
