Better manz

Lyrics 

[Verse]
Dark nights the lights so bright
Whispers call me in the night
Promises of joy so near
Masking all the pain and fear

[Verse 2]
Chasing dreams I couldn't keep
Lost myself in pleasures deep
Family's cries just faded sound
Shadows pull me further down

[Chorus]
Sweet ecstasy I held so tight
Made me feel so high so bright
Lost my way couldn't see the fall
Addiction's grip it took it all

[Verse 3]
Once a man with morals true
Now I'm someone I never knew
Turned my back on love and kin
Pleasure's grasp it pulled me in

[Bridge]
Embarrassment I faced the shame
Love so close to slipping away
Near-death brush brought me back
Fighting hard against the knack

[Chorus]
Sweet ecstasy I held so tight
Made me feel so high so bright
Lost my way couldn't see the fall
Addiction's grip it took it all

Downstairs (Live from Newcastle Civic Centre)

This track marks a bold evolution in Janeuary's musical journey, blending rich, emotional depth with a symphony of colors far beyond the simplicity of black and white. The fans will be able to enjoy the velvet vocals of the singer and enchanting instruments of the orchestra.
   "This song represents a new stage for me," Janeuary shares. "It’s more than music—it's a revelation of raw feeling and intricate instrumentation. While black and white have been my foundation, I’m now exploring a polyphony of musical colors."
   Janeuary’s emotional approach to music distinguishes her work, making each composition feel like an intimate, live performance. "If most music is a movie theater, mine is a theater," Janeuary says. Her intention is clear: to leave nothing behind, pouring every last ounce of soul into her compositions until the music falls silent forever.

Once I, I will open all your doors 
And come inside. 
Since I never hoped you’d be so close… 
I almost died
Tonight.
Tonight…
Just black
And white 
Why?..

Kiss me… I could feel your silver touch
Inside my tears.
Oh, listen… I could wander in your dreams
For  thousand years 
Of love 
Of love…
My love, love, love, love, love…

Once I, I will open all your doors 
And come inside…
Since I realized you are so close,
And I won’t die 
Tonight!

You’ll paint my black 
Into white


Janeuary - Black into white

Verse 1:
You always start a show
And I fall asleep
You like to hog the bed
While I steal the sheets
The kitchen light is on
But we forgot to eat
It’s alright
It’s alright

We’re always making plans
Then we change our minds
I forget the date
You forget the time
But somehow babe
It all works out fine
It’s alright
It’s alright

Chorus 1:
Cause when it’s all been said and done
Take the doggies on the run
Together we have so much fun
Before the party has begun

Verse 2:
Sitting on the porch
Strumming my guitar
While you paint the house
Splashing on the car
We don’t have a clue
Who the neighbors are
It’s alright
It’s alright

Chorus 1:
Cause when it’s all been said and done
Take the doggies on the run
Together we have so much fun
Before the party has begun

Chorus 2:
Cause you say come and hold me tight
And you say everything’s alright

Verse 3:
You call me on the phone
I don’t answer
I never can remember
The password
You never let me get in
The last word
It’s alright
It’s alright

Chorus 1:
Cause when it’s all been said and done
Take the doggies on the run
Together we have so much fun
Before the party has begun

Chorus 1:
Cause when it’s all been said and done
Take the doggies on the run
Together we have so much fun
Before the party has begun

Chorus 2:
Cause you say come and hold me tight
And you say it just feels so right
And you say it’s a lovely life
And you say everything’s alright

Chorus 1:
Cause when it’s all been said and done
Take the doggies on the run
Together we have so much fun
Before the party has begun

Before The Party Has Begun

Pain And Misery

Holliday was born in Georgia in eighteen fifty-one
His parents called him Johnny but he was better known
As a sharp shootin' gambler
Doc Holliday
A whiskey-drinkin'
Woman-lovin' man

Doc Holliday was a bad man
One of the baddest in the land
Runnin' with the Earp brothers
If you see him
You better run for cover
Doc Holliday was a bad man

He was raised up by his mama to be a southern gentleman
But a childhood illness changed all of her plans
So he moved out to the desert for the dry
Dry air
To treat his ailing lungs

Doc Holliday was a bad man
One of the baddest in the land
Runnin' with the Earp brothers
If you see him
You better run for cover
Doc Holliday was a bad man

He was a card-carryin'
Sharp-shootin'
Southern gentleman
Quick-drawin'
Hard-drinkin'
Gambling man
Cold-blooded
Tubercular
No-good-for-not-in outlaw
From Georgia

Doc Holliday was a bad man
One of the baddest in the land
Runnin' with the Earp brothers
If you see him
You better run for cover
Doc Holliday was a bad man
