I heard that if you keep your head up high
Good things will wanna happen to you
And God knows, I could use a good thing about now

Then it comes along 
Someone to make you still believe in love
That's what you are

My heart beats like a jackhammer
She goes by like she don't matter at all
Can't you see
I'm off my feet
Girl, I'm pulsing like a jackhammer
Rush of blood to the head and my balance is gone
And I see stars.
There she goes and knocks me out

Now, I don't even think about it
Cos you are all the thinking I could need
And God knows, I was in a bad way until now

Till you came along
Someone to make you still believe in love
That's what you are

My heart beats like a jackhammer
She goes by like she don't matter at all
Can't you see
I'm off my feet
Girl, I'm pulsing like a jackhammer
Rush of blood to the head and my balance is gone
And I see stars
There she goes and knocks me out

From nowhere you come
I wanna know where you go
My heart, it's beating like a jackhammer
She goes by like she don't matter at all
Can't you see
I'm off my feet
Girl, I'm pulsing like a jackhammer
Rush of blood to the head and my balance is gone 
And I see stars
There she goes and knocks me out

Lyrics:
I’ll be whatever you want me to be
I’ll fit in the cracks to your fantasy
I’m in love with the lie that you think I am

So tell me your deepest desires and fears
Let’s see if we’d have a future in this routine
I’ll fill in the blanks of the life we need

Is it all so wrong?
The twisted things I’ve done?
Is it all so bad to keep us on our toes?

I’m in love with the lie that you think I am
The lie that you think I am

Dance with me like I had imagined I’d spend my days
When I was a kid watching silver screens
I’m in love with the version of me I can’t be

You’re away, and that way it’s better
I’ll never change
I threw out the difference in love and pain
I’m in love with your all
Your everything

Is it all so wrong?
The twisted things I’ve done?
Is it all so bad to want to hold you close?

I’m in love with the lie that you think I am
The lie that you think I am

I’m in love with the lie that you think I am
The lie that you think I am
The lie that you think I am

The Lie That You Think I Am

Lyrics:
You'd sleep
You'd sleep better in a warm bed
You'd be better staying with the pack
It's a fact

'Cos out there
It might look like it's a life of ease
It might look like there's a world to seize
But it's a lie

Stay
If it makes you feel better then stay
And I'll be whatever you need
'Cos you give more than I've ever seen
Stay
Stay just the same
'Cos I'd never recover from shame
If you walked out of something so beautiful

I miss you
I miss you better in a cold bed
I'd ring you louder than a chapel bell
If it'd bring you back

And I'll be
I will never ever be the same
You should stay a while and feel the change
Feel the flame

Oh stay
If it makes you feel better then stay
And I'll be whatever you need
'Cos you give more than I've ever seen
Stay
Stay just the same
'Cos I'd never recover from shame
If you walked out of something so beautiful

Lyrics:

Last night I dreamt we got together
Now I can't think of nothing else
You had your hands around my body
Is this just something I made up
Or this could be love

I wrote my feelings in a letter
Then tore it up before you saw
My friends all think that I've gone crazy chasing her
Maybe they're wrong
And this could be love

Oh
Did I fall for a delusion
Oh
Is this how I find my ruin
Oh I wonder
Could this be something
Oh I wonder
If this could be love

The air was cold it was December
We numbed our sense on the gin
But my head and heart could not kickstart
And I let you go
For all that I know
This could be love

Oh
Did I fall for a delusion
Oh
Is this how I find my ruin
Oh I wonder
Could this be something
Oh I wonder
If this could be

Love. Love. Love, oh
Love. Love. Love, oh

Baby tell me
Are you feeling it like I do
I go crazy
Lately I can never be without you, no

Oh I wonder
Could this be something
Oh I wonder
If this could be

Love. Love. Love, oh
Love. Love. Love, oh

Stones - EP

This Could Be Love

"Stones From Paris" written and produced by Owen Denvir
Drums by Peter J. McCauley

From the EP "Stones"

Lyrics:

Jealousy
It's not something I'm accustomed to
Wouldn't openly admit to
Doesn't top my list of failings

She will stand
As the limits to my patience
My overactive imagination
To think that she could ever fall for me

Stones from Paris
Was further than I was willing to go
Stones from Paris
Was further signs of a superior lunge for a love

This chivalry
If there was a line I think you crossed it
And the bar plain reinvented
Give a man half a chance

Because in my head
Are scenarios of her
And I'd rather that they stayed there
Because she wants a gold mine, not a man

Stones from Paris
Was further than I was willing to go
Stones from Paris
Was further signs of a superior lunge for a love

I could go to Dublin
I'd even stretch to London if you really wanted
But stones from Paris
Is too far out for riches for a girl that I'd want to know

I don't even know you
You don't even know me

Stones EP

Stones From Paris

"A songwriter of subtle complexity that belies his tender years" - Daily Mirror

Training as a young orchestral viola player, Belfast-born Owen Denvir was drawn by the alternative sound of Bon Iver over Bach. These two styles of music influence his songwriting, which Hot Press magazine have described as "honest, personal... complex and affecting".

"Honest and personal song-craft, paired with beautiful vocals... This Northern star is rising fast" - Hot Press magazine

Owen's DIY production has totalled over 100,000 streams on Spotify and 2,000,000 views on videos across Facebook and Youtube, even drawing the attention of Coldplay on Twitter. Coupled with support slots for dodie, JC Stewart and Ryan McMullan as well as Irish TV appearances on BBC 1's "Nolan Live", ITV's "UTV Life" and TV3's "The 6 O'Clock Show" and major Irish radio playlisting, his music has stretched far beyond its quiet beginnings of his bedroom studio.

"Well worth a look" - Coldplay
"Will leave you mesmerised" - Independent.ie

Over the course of the next 12 months, Denvir will be releasing a trilogy of EPs: "Sticks", "Stones" and "Bones", which encompass Freud's theory of personality (3 individual parts which form one whole). Lead singles from "Sticks" ("Ghost" & "Stay") have topped the "RTE Radio One Recommends" playlist and were selected by Spotify for Irish curated playlist "An Alternative Eire".

"One of the finest talents around in Northern Ireland today" - Ralph McLean, BBC Radio Ulster

After spending the last year collaborating with the charity 'Live Music Now' - who provide professional music for care homes and special schools - Owen recorded and produced the album "Music & Memories: Voices of Belfast" alongside Peter J. McCauley (of Rams' Pocket Radio). This side-project compiled performances and stories from residents of Belfast care homes, resulting in a unique set of arrangements featuring guitar, piano, viola and ukulele, bringing together voices from across the city in a blend of nostalgia and Belfast wit.

"One of Belfast's gems" - Gigging NI
"Lyrically and vocally expressive... Denvir's classical background provides an intricately delicate musical scaffold" - State.ie
