I wrote and produced this song solo when I was struggling with anxiety and depression. I wrote it as a reminder to myself.

Lyrics

Limelight

Give me the time
and the sight to be fine
Are waiting for someone
to call you home?
Tell me the lies
and the fight will be fine
Are you looking for someone
to call your own?

Am I holding you too fast
when I’m kissing you tight?
Is it so unkind to ask
if I’m wasting the night
in your eyes
your eyes
in your eyes?
My My Limelight

Hide me inside all your wise
Make me high
Are you waiting for someone to give you more?
Let down your cry
We can hide on the rise
Are you looking for someone to keep you warm?

Am I holding you too fast
when I’m kissing you tight?
Is it so unkind to ask
if I’m wasting the night
in your eyes
your eyes
in your eyes?
My My Limelight

JT Roach - Limelight

When I wrote the first demo of Photograph it was a sad love song about missing someone you had broken up with, but I changed the lyrics to be realer to me with where I am in my life. I wrote about my crew of friends that fell out and don’t talk to each other any more and how much I miss hanging with all of them together. I lived in the hallway of an artist commune house with four other people when I first moved to LA, and wrote all my demos out of a walk-in closet. When we moved out of that place, several of my friends from that era had a falling out. I’m still friends with all of them individually but it makes me so sad that I can’t hang out with all of them together. It was a great squad. When I see photos of that time it makes me grateful for that era of my life but it also hurts because things turned out so differently than we had been planning. I wrote this song to get out some of that sadness.

Lyrics : 

When I about the summer
That I moved to California
I can smell the Northern Lights
We were smokin’ late at night

But when we got to August
And you moved out your apartment
We left with our goodbyes
And mistakes we can’t rewind

When I thought of where we’d end up
this wasn’t what I pictured

So much that we left unsaid
If it’s really for the best
Why does it still hurt
when I’m lookin’ back?

Couldn’t seem to make it last
It was over in a flash
When did our love turn
into photographs?

I wish the days went longer
On the lake up in Minocqua
Where we flew in for the week
Just to breathe the evergreen

Dressed in whiskey denim
we gazed into the heavens
with a fire among the trees
That night was a masterpiece

Sometimes I can’t help but wonder
how ya doin’ where you are

So much that we left unsaid
If it’s really for the best
Why does it still hurt
when I’m lookin’ back?

Couldn’t seem to make it last
It was over in a flash
When did our love turn
into photographs?

Photograph

Lyrics : 

Wanna feel your ocean crashing up above
And fall into a silence I can’t interrupt
Somehow your familiar never feels the same
Make the tension leave me
Send it all away

You dive into the spaces I was hollow
Keep me on your skin where I belong
You lead me anywhere you know I’ll follow
Take me in your arms and I’ll dissolve

Oooh
Oooh
Dissolve

Searchin’ every moment for the clarity
Chasin’ the emotion to a remedy
Somehow your familiar never feels the same
Nothin’ left beneath me
Fallin’ into place

You dive into the spaces I was hollow
Keep me on your skin where I belong
You lead me anywhere I’ll follow
Take me in your arms and I’ll dissolve

Oooh
Oooh
Dissolve

Dive into the spaces I was hollow
Keep me on your skin where I belong
You lead me anywhere I’ll follow
Take me in your arms and I’ll dissolve

Oooh
Oooh
Dissolve

Lyrics:
Tied to her cheek when she turns her head away - away

Won’t speak to me and I don’t know what to say - to say

And she can be elusive in the light

It’s hard to read the corners of her mind

 

But night falls and I watch her bloom – bloom

I’m lost but she is in bloom – bloom

 

Push and we pull but it never feels the same – the same

So colorful that I linger on her name – her name

And she can be elusive in the light

Leading me along and on the line

 

But night falls and I watch her bloom – bloom

I’m lost but she is in bloom – bloom

But night falls and I watch her bloom – bloom

I’m lost but she is in bloom – bloom

Bloom

LYRICS: 

I WAS THERE FOR YOU DEVOTION IN MY NAME
ALL MY SECRETS IN YOUR HANDS
SHOWED I CARE FOR YOU IT NEVER WAS A GAME
SO I'LL NEVER UNDERSTAND
HOW YOU LOOKED ME IN MY EYES
AND SAID YOU'D NEVER DO ME WRONG
AND FED ME ALL YOUR LIES
I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU GOT ALONG
​
I WASTED ROSES ON YOU 
THAT SHOULD BE IN THE DIRT
I WASTED ROSES ON YOU
I HOPE YOU WATCH THEM BURN
AND NOW THERE'S POISON IN YOUR TOUCH
GIVE SOMEONE ELSE YOUR LOVE
I WASTED ROSES
I WASTED ROSES
​
YOU CAN SAVE YOUR TONGUE FOR SOMEONE WHO CAN SIT
WHILE YOU SPIT YOUR SILVER WORDS
'CAUSE IT'S NOT ENOUGH TO TEMPT ME WITH A KISS
WHILE A KNIFE TWISTS IN MY NERVES
AND I DON'T CARE IF YOUR EYES LOOK 
LIKE THEY'RE FIGHTING GRAVITY
I DON'T THINK THAT YOU EVER WERE
THE GIRL YOU USED TO BE

Lyrics :

Don’t Keep Me Waitin’

Givin’ up your pride isn’t easy
C’mon realize that you need me
It’s enough to hold

Tell me all the lies that you’re keeping
I’ll be on ya side not fleeting
And we hardly know

Tryin’ to catch your eyes when they pass along
Don’t keep me waitin’
Me waitin’
Find me when the lights are turnin’ off
Don’t Keep Me Waitin’
Me waitin’

Call me when the fear turns over
I’ll be on the rise getting older
It’s enough to choose

Find me to the left of ya shoulder
I’ll be in your eyes getting colder
And we hardly move

Tryin’ to catch your eyes when they pass along
Don’t keep me waitin’
Me waitin’
Find me when the lights are turnin’ off
Don’t Keep Me Waitin’
Me waitin’

Funny how I been right here crying
For one of you to call me out
Call me out
Funny how I been right here dying
For one of you to pull me out
Pull me out

Don't Keep Me Waiting

Lyrics :

Call it faith cause I know it sounds insane
But a look from you melts away the doubt
On your face there’s a secret locked away
But I know it’s too good to speak aloud

Losing myself
Yours eyes are an apple
Let me confess
Your lips are a chapel

Call it sin
I would still worship your skin
When I play your fool I am right at home
Make a wish
And I’ll grant it for a kiss
If you say you’re mine I’ll be yours alone

Losing myself
Yours eyes are an apple
Let me confess
Your lips are a chapel

Lyrics :

Heard ya voice in my head
Sayin' don’t be afraid to tell the truth
I should have held my tongue
Now I'm layin' in bed all alone
And I can hardly move thinking what I've done

But we play games and we make shapes on different sides
And we prefer all our colors outside the lines

We fight each other like oil and water
But you and me got chemistry
And if we scatter it doesn’t matter
'Cause you and me got symmetry

When ya talk like ya do you should know
It shows up on my face when you’re not around
But I’ll break all the rules if you hold me
And you tell me all the ways you’ll take away the doubt

STILL GOT NEON IN YOUR EYES
I TRACE THE SKIN OUTSIDE YOUR HIPS
IN OUR FAVORITE PLACE TO HIDE
​
SO GIVE ME YOUR SUNDAY TWISTED
LAZY KISSES
GOT NO PLACE WE NEED TO GO
AND GIVE ME YOUR SUNDAY TWISTED
LAZY KISSES
LETS JUST STAY RIGHT HERE AT HOME
​
LET THE HOURS DRIFT AWAY
WASTING TIME ON ME AND YOU
LOTS OF GAMES THAT WE CAN PLAY
LOTS OF THANGS THAT WE CAN DO

Lyrics :

Got me feelin' so weightless
When I’m usually tied to myself
I don’t wanna be patient
But we can waste time somewhere else
And I know you’re down

I can give you what you like
You know I got the supply
For you
For you

Tell me do ya feel weightless?
Do you wanna be careless tonight?
Ooh

Well ya givin' me shivers
That kinda love is like a drug
Am I givin’ you shivers?
Just tell me when you’ve had enough

Got me feelin’ so anxious
From the way that you’re taking control
But it’s too late now
So pick a location
Anywhere you want to go
Ya you know i’m down

I can give you what you like
You know I got the supply
For you
Yeah

Tell me do ya feel weightless?
Do you wanna be careless tonight?  

Well ya givin me shivers
That kinda love is like a drug
Am I givin’ you shivers?
Just tell me when you’ve had enough

I’m just here to entertain
Til ya get the shivers
Shivers
Whatever it’s gonna take
Til ya get the shivers
Shivers      	

Well ya givin me shivers
That kinda love is like a drug
Am I givin’ you shivers?
Just tell me when you’ve had enough  

Shivers
Whatever it’s gonna take
Til ya get the shivers
Shivers

Lyrics :

Make It Up To You

I can tell
Tell ya mad
From the look of ya
Tell me whats
On ya mind

Tell me lies
Say ya fine
It’s all good butcha
Tryin’ not
Not to cry

I’m feelin’ like I kinda know
Where this is comin’ from
So I’ll take all the blame and make it mine

I can tell
Tell ya mad
From the look of ya
So I’ll do my best
To make it right

Lemme make it up to you
Lemme make it up to you
'Cause you need someone to hold
Stop pretendin’ that you don’t
Lemme make it up to you
Lemme make it up to you
You been treatin’ me so cold
But I know just what you want
When ya need a lover
Girl I gotcha covered
'Cause there ain’t another
That I would choose
Lemme make it up to you
Lemme make it up to you
I can make it up to you
It’s up to you

When ya say
Ya need some space
That’s when I run to ya
What we fight
Fightin’ for?

Just tell me
What you need
Girl I got it for ya
Say the word
And it’s yours

I’m feelin’ like I kinda know
Where this is comin’ from
So I’ll take all the blame and make it mine
 
just the word
just the word

Lyrics :

Dusty tapestries 
they don’t want to sway back and forth
And your black hair ties 
scatter all over on my floor
Know I had this comin’ 
but I can’t take this anymore
I would trade my life 
for the smallest moment in yours

They say that you probably aren’t the one
And time will help with falling out of love

But I can’t help
Help
If I want you
Help Help
No I can’t
Help Help
If I need you
Help
I can’t help it

I can feel your touch 
but you’re not around for the tell
And the pain stays close 
so it’s hard to look at myself
Now my blood runs cold 
‘cause the warmth of ya soul isn’t there
But I’m scared to move 
so your pictures stay on the shelf

They say that you probably aren’t the one
And time will help with falling out of love

Lyrics : 

Murderer

No one in the world
Puts on a dress like you
I die every time
You walk into the room
I do
Yeah you know that I do

And when ya mad at me
Ya make me want ya so bad
Sometimes it hurts enough
I swear I feel like can’t
move
It’s like I can’t move

And you don’t
Don’t even know
What you’re doin’
Doin’ to me

But darlin darlin
You’ve been killin’ me
You’re a murderer
Mmm
My heart is stallin’
Yeah I’m barely breathin’
You’re a murderer
Mmm

Girl you sure know how to make me mad
But I don’t mind when we make up like that
No
You know I don’t
That look ya givin’ me could put me in a coffin
And when ya say my name I’m like a dead man walkin’
oh
Can’t wait to get you home
