Lyrics:

I used to cry as a child, lost in a jungle of fears, so when I cried as a adult, they called 'em crocodile tears!

The hearing you recollect, affect a dangerous mind, I just need a bit of space, in time, I'll be fine!

Verse 1

So tell my demons I'm winning and beginning to feel to love, take pride in what you do, don't let jealousy rip you up!

I love you, I love you, I cannot tell you enough, I know my lyrics are cheesy, I really don't give a fuck!

These words, for that 1 in one hundred thousand, arousing, compassionate conversations, by making you feel empowered!

Everyday is a painting and I can colour the clouds, and every night is a scripture and I'll be writing for hours!

Tell me, how can I make you smile, I'm all ears, I'm here to wipe away the crocodile tears.

Tell me your passions, tell me your fears, I'll tell you mine, and we'll confide in ideas, I have no cure, only the will to be here, because together, we're travelling were ever we steer.

We have control, now watch me fumble through the gears, the jungle is my home, no more crocodile tears!

My heart is a thousand years old, I am not like other people, their is fire in my soul, and blood on the easel.

I am burning in hell, surrounded by evil, the hell of myself, where the power is lethal.

Verse 1

I fear pain, never feared death, love is the only real thing we have left, I can take time, I can take breath, I can take more, I can take less.

I can learn a lesson from the beating off my chest, you can change her mind, but you can't change the lines on a lioness.

Life is like a never ending test, if you don't spend it with pride then you might as well be dead.

... Dead dead, never dread time, make time undress, less time spent alone, is the best, I don't know, some-times I just wanna be alone, just me, my thoughts and this bottle of ethanols, cosy.

One dose of the poison, and comatose slowly, escape to the broken when hopelessly lonely, I know, to walk through the fire is holy but I have desire to cloth me, go.

Hook

Verse 2

Not many people understand, I have died many times but survive what I am. Though we try to confine any lines in the sand, those who are shy, are silently mad, had times, when I wanted to get out, an intellects mind is designed to be blinded with doubt.

Find time for the vices, no kind to go out, all the bridges I burn and opinions I shout, keep me outside a circle which people in-crowd. A surplus of reasons to vent what I've found.

You're aloud to be crazy, naive and profound, please allow me to save you when weakened and down.

You're not bound by your senses, feel free to step out, paradise in the sky, but your feet on the ground, there is no correct answer perceive and astound, I can walk through the fire and see through the clouds.

Solstice Cypher - Matt Currie

Blurry Face - Matt Currie [Twenty One Pilots Remix]

This is my new project consisting of eight original songs. Each song is based entirely on one state of emotion.

The first four songs are culturally considered negative emotions and the latter four are culturally considered positive emotions. For each song I subjectively address the extreme ends of my experiences of these emotions and apply them to the wider context of societal behaviour.

I've titled it 'Exposure' as it's a personal and honest expression of my feelings toward myself and others.

Available on iTunes, Spotify, Tidal and Amazon Music now.
