For my Uni assignment, had to write two contrasting songs. 

Shoelace

Nectar

The Dog is Getting Old

I’ve been practicing patience; it’s been outright war
I can’t hide in the basement, behind the cellar door
Lies kind of tell themselves sometimes
My mind kind of made itself this time
You told me "work on your patience", my heads against the wall

So I call again,
Alone in my room then,
Your mobile phone goes dead,
Elusive, I’ve lost my head

Do you remember things that didn’t happen?
Your brother sings and you forget to clap him
Heres’ the thing, your temper has a button
A violent spring and all is just forgotten 

I’ve been practicing patience; it’s been outright war
You told me "work on your patience", my heads against the wall

So I call again,
Alone in my room then,
Your mobile phone goes dead,
Elusive, I’ve lost my head
