Love and Demons

Severance - purpleclaire x AudioBake

miss the madness and the in jokes 
out the back laughinmg til we choke
on our cider and black 

start singing
 
feeling part of ...some
thing beautiful 
remember at the start they couldnt 
hold us back
i miss gripping the guitar so tight it almost breaks
the buzz of going on ...the ocean of the crowd 

miss the feeling when we oh so tight feel th flow of energy through the night 
feel it in the night

start singing

ties get broken 
harsh words spoken 
said and done 
no take backs
ego clashes
mental crashes no way to 
hold together ...its a shit business

shit biz

Clouds Scribble hazy    - hieroglyphs across a blank blue page of sky whispy creeping tendrils of other peoples Dreams  fragments of  Dreams  trees writhing twisted limbs dropping dead wood  The wind so cold  from the east Drying their roots  but killing the rot in the soil  sometimes the harshest winds are needed  to thrive    blowing other peoples dreams across the sky,  fragments of our dreams across the sky   i wonder what they think of Mine we are open we are the tree we are the wind  we are the ocean we are the dreams    that blow across a summer sky  say goodbye   we are open we are the tree we are the wind  we are the chosen we are the dreams    that blow across a summer sky  say goodbye  say goodbye   not forever  for now

Fragments

you say dont wear that you say wear this you say dont do that i dont give a shit  you say i asked for it i didnt ask for it too much make up not enough
make your fuckin mind up
clothes do not define me breasts do not define me you do not define me 

i am woman

you say dont go out after dark you say dont walk through the park at night if you do hold your keys in your hand and be ready to fight
if i have to fight gonna go for the eyes gonna go for the balls and after it all i put my foot on your chest and scream 

i am woman
 hear me roar 
i am woman hear me roar

stop the suffocation manipulation violation
stop the exploitation subjugation violation

you say

as the green light turns to red all the voices rushing round youre head 
arre telling you to stop when you should run

given up the ghost to the one you thought you loved the most and 
suddenly red is green
you run

 Am  I all white keys

Or ebony
Only sad only happy
 Am  I all white keys
Or ebony
Emotion singularity 

 
Red light turns to green and then pushing pulling handds unseen
try to tie you down to where you are

You want to run green is red before the gun
 life traffic screamms around you still you run 

 Am  I all white keys

Or ebony
Only sad only happy
 Am  I all white keys
Or ebony
Emotion singularity

I’ve Got my purple guitar 
you bought for me 
At that little bazaar (I had to beg )
just along the street (I had to beg you for money)
From our house  (our house?)
Well it used to be our house (it was always fuckin your house)
Now it’s only sticks and stones 
And full of bones ( whose bones? My bones)

inside of me 
I find 
No music left behind you 
 Just My guitar and me 

Now you’re over the bridge 
And it’s burning burning 
Running over the bridge 
I’m just water under it 
Now you’re  over the bridge 
And it’s burning burning down
Running over the bridge 
I’m just troubled water now 

I Play my purple guitar 
And sing alone 
No harmony left (no harmony)
 without a Melody (you stole)
Our song (my song)
Well it used to be our song (our song?I fuckin hate our song)
Now it’s only words and notes  (it was never my song)
That stick in my throat 

inside of me I find 
No music left behind you 
Just My guitar and me 
 
Now you’re over the bridge 
And it’s burning burning 
Running over the bridge 
I’m just water under it 
Now youre over the bridge 
And it’s burning burning down
Running over the bridge 
I’m just troubled water now 

I can’t remember the songs we used to sing together
I can’t remember (bridges are burning burning) songs we used to sing together
I can’t remember…….

A void dance ….in silence
My penance…for your sins 
(so I dance on your grave ….bridges are burning burning 
Bridges are burning burning down.

Burning down around your feet ..burning down ]
Burning down around your feet . You better run you better ri

a Void Dance

Karma -

Don’t fuck with pc 🤣🤘🏻💜🤘🏻

Obssessed with me possessed by me 
Eaten up by jealousy
You twist and turn you sweat you ache
Lying awake wishing you could be me
Silent seething you can’t sleep
Stomach turns when you try to eat 
When you sing you only shout 
Vitriolic hate you spout

No harmony for you my friend 
No melody no never again
No harmony for you my friend 
You haven’t met my demon yet

Distracted me with needy greed 
I no longer let you feed
You scratch and claw dig your own grave
Lying in the dirt wishing you could be me
Wishing you could be me 
Ripped the scales from off my eyes
I see now how you sucked me dry
Leave you drowning in desire
Sick and twisted heart afire 
Burn burn burn 

No harmony for you my friend 
No melody no never again 
No harmony for you my friend 
You haven’t met my demon yet 

You curse my name I do the same 
Again and again and again 
Who’s left standing ? 
At the end …..

Cursed

music by https://soundcloud.com/metrocityrecords

It was just yesterday ,
I felt you dance across my grave
Sent shivers …right down my spine,
Made me remember - the night we drank
Lilac wine ….
On the beach forever...

when you call out my name
Will it be the same as yesterday
Coz those days,
Those hazy days are gone
If I call out your name
Will it be the same as yesterday
But those days
Those crazy days are gone

Was it so long ago I stood beside u on the shore,
You’d throw a stone and hide your hand
Sent ripples, cross water clear,
Across the ocean
And then the way you looked at me
Knife cut me open

Chorus x2

I miss those days
I miss those hazy days
I miss those days
I miss those hazy days with you
I miss those crazy days with you
Do you remember
Sent shivers right down my spine …

first collab using someone elses lyrics and music ..very interesting learning curve for me ..hopefully more in the pipeline

Cybele Pantomime Riot with purpleclaire

I don’t wanna hate myself …but I do ..I denegrate myself .because of you ..because of you …you twisted my intention …lies to sick to mention …I don’t wanna hate myself but I do …because of you …you stripped away my confidence til I was left defenceless…small and trembling..echo of my voice came back to wake me …so I gather my inner army …gaze upon my righteous rage …as I undo the bars of your cage around me …
..you were the loosest screw of all ..I love to see how far the mighty have to fall …the loosest screw of all …I stole your crown and now it’s you who has to crawl ….
I don’t wanna hate myself but I do ..because of you
I still fuckin hate myself …
I won’t let you use me anymore 
I don’t wanna hate myself 
All the time ….i was mine ….
When will I wake up …..
You …were the loosest screw of all….

FEE fi fo fum ...i smell the blood ..
fee fi fo fum i smell the blood here i come 
fee fi fo fum i smell the blood
fee fi fo fum i smell the blood youd better run

something wicked this way comes ..you forgot to drop the crumbs..
now the paths all look the same ..can you guess the monsters name..
something wicked this way comes...poison needle pricked your thumb..
as u slowly fall asleep ...through these the woods the beast will creep 

fee fi fo fum....

something wicked this way comes oh so scared body numb..
you can almost feel my breath...fight with all that you have left (fee fi fo fum)
something wicked this way comes..head towards the jungle drums 
you will dance til your feet bleed - and your blood will feed the seed..

something wicked this way comes to my will you must succumb..
hypnotised i own u now ..try and stop me dont know how 
something wicked this way comes deep within you crawl the worms
born in darkness long ago - as above - so below...
fee fi fo fum.....
be you live or be you dead ...grind your bones to make my bread...fee fi fo fum

pressure rising,,a lil bit a lil bit more
senses heightened a just a lil bit lil bit lil bit more
fascination keeps us locked behind these doors
of perception how do you see me , how do i see you
a glass half empty let me fill you
a glass half empty let me fill let me fill let me fill you up
from my broken cup....broken cup
can you feel it ..i can feel it ..
feel it rising like a tide inside of me and i am the wave
feel it rising like a tide inside of me and i am the wave
sail yourself on me
you can turn me upside down and inside out
never find the real me
you can twist me wrong side round and right side down
never find the real me
feel it rising like a tide inside of me and i am the wave
feel it rising like a tide inside of me and i am the wave
sail yourself on me

its them not me
all the trouble in this world caused
by other fuckin people
so by degrees
slowly slipslide down helter skelter in
paranoid dreams ..nothing as it seems
am i wrong to think theyre all out to get me
but nobody ever gets me...too strange deranged too off the rails
dont believe the bullshit rhetoric
dont believe the parlour trick politics
i dont think how im supposed to i dont see the world like they do
i denounce the hands that hold us down
that scares you- it should

my mind is the enemy i am the enemy
the freak i hide inside
my mind is the enemy i am the enemy
i am not your kind

so sick of creeping through the shadows
coz theres eyes upon us everywhere i go
oh this thought control
keeps me safe deep down at the bottom of my hole
so deep i cannot see the light
but i hear steel heels on the empty street at night
a hammer on the door  (open up) to fix my broken mind
today im the enemy - tomorrow maybe you
does that scare you? well it should

my mind is the enemy i am the enemy
the freak i hide inside
i am the enemy - my mind is the enmy
i am not of your kind

im so deep i cannot see the light
so fucking deep will you help me , help me find the light...

lyrics-
you give me chills -you give me fever 
you make me ill- you make me quiver
i know i gotta break this cycle of woe
how can i when youre in my head everywhere i go?
so i slip down deeper - nowhere else to go
getting weaker - i just cant say no

you make me sweat you make me rage 
you make me rust you make me smaller and amaller and smaller and smaller and small

i know i gotta stop this spiral
i know i gotta break this cycke of woe 
just cant seem to find the right road - keep my feet upon the right road

you give me thrills you give me the fear
you make me blind you make me hear things- louder and louder and louder and loud

i know i gotta stop this spiral i know i gotta break this cycle of woe 
just cant seem to find the right road - keep my feet upon the right road

what would i be? who would i be ? without you

CYCLE of WOE- Audiobake x purpleclaire

if i was thirsty would you bring me water..or would you leave me dry
if i was hungry would you try to feed me ...or would you let me starve..
if i was sinkin would you try to save me ..or would you let me drown
if i was thirsty would you bring me water

still waiting , waiting for you
im still waiting , for all the things you said youd do

if i was flying would you try to ground me ... or would you leave me high
if i was broken would you try to mend me ...or would you let me die
if i was too warm would you try to chill me ...or would you let me fry
if i was flying would you try to ground me

still waiting , still waiting for you
still fucking waiting for all those things you said youd do
now i see youre no friend to me
now i see youre no fuckin friend to me

No Friend Of Mine-Audiobake x purpleclaire

ive taken an old folk tune i learned as a girl many moons ago- (island spinning song) and done something a little different - enjoy!

A woman’s work is never done 
 bear them daughters bear them sons 
-A woman’s place is under thumb 
oh tell me truly wheel-o
-When will someone come to me 
will he come by land or sea 
Will he my true lover be ? 
Tell me truly wheel-o
Tell me truly wheel-o

 Hull a Mack a doo- hoo rova hee 
Hoo rova Hinda hee rova hinda 
Hull a Mack a doo - hoo rova hee 
A-Dick o deck o dandy 

 Send a message-I don’t know if I’ll get through 
 Now My head is ringing …into you
Leave it ringing such a long time ..
Maybe this time …maybe this time
I’ll get through… to you 

Hull a Mack a doo…
Maybe this time I’ll get through ..to you

Left my name far behind me 
Must I feel the same ?
 Always raging inside me 
 Cannnot see the end 
 Of this love 

Hull a Mack a doo …
Tell me truly wheelo
Cannot see the end .
Tell me truly wheel-o
Cannot see the end of this love 
Tell me truly wheel-o

When will someone come to me
 Will he come by land or see 
 Will he my own true love be 
Oh tell me truly wheel-o

          TONGUE TIED
should i tell you i saw you 
when you were meant to be with me 
but there you were...kissing her madly .
do i do nothing say nothing?
try to keep it quiet all the while
silent screaming 

do i do nothing say nothing ?
should i just keep my mouth shut ?
stand back and watch you fuck this up?
its just my stupid pride 
keeping me tongue tied
should i just blow this shit up?
couldnt be a lot more worse than this 
its just my stupid pride 
keeping me tongue tied

as i sneak softly through your pockets 
looking for some evidence of who it is? 
your touching secretly.
and you lie sleeping ...sleep lying 
never think that i might find you out 
you dont know that i know.

do i do nothing say nothing ..
chorus

and now im thinking why worry ? 
waiting to see if youre coming home 
doesnt matter to me now
coz i met someone this morning 
who ive had my eye on for awhile
two can play at that game 
i gotta do something say something 
do something say something

i just cant keep my mouth shut
stand back and watch me fuck you up 
its just my stupid pride keeping me tongue tied
just watch me blow this shit up
could it be a lot more worse than this
its just my stupid pride keeping me 
tongue tied

I can see the world around 
locked in silence not a sound
to say i love you would be cruel
you stand there staring at me 
like a fool
i love you hate you feel you come inside you 
squeeze you tell the world youve died youve
run youve fled to the unknown
i turn you to stone ..i turn you to stone

something breaks inside my head
feel the snap.
cuts me down ...
inside i ache for something new
all this time i bleed for you

i stone you bruise you 
make me want to use you 
burn you freeze you fuck you kill you
crying into the unkown
i turn you to stone

im not drowning 
im just drinking 
im sleepwalking
did you think youd be the one...to wake me
did you think youd be the one to wake me up?

there was a time - when i was over it 
there was a time - when i didnt give a shit about it 
there was a place where i could handle it 
there was a space between us -
where i could lose ...

didnt wanna break you
(but i did)
didnt wanna chase you
(but i did )
no matter how i try ...
all i ...seem to do
is hang myself ...
for you..

there was a line - you shouldnt have crossed it 
there was a sign - you tore out my eyes i missed it..
there was a race ...i didnt know i was in ..
you came second place - now you watch me leave 

didnt wanna break you
(but i did)
didnt wanna chase you
(but i did )
no matter how i try ...
all i ...seem to do
is hang myself ...

up on my tiptoes - on your gallows 
i can feel you - in the shadows
i hang no more
cut the rope that kept me hanging on 
forever and a day 
(I'll break your heart - I'll let you hang )
cut the last thread that connected us 
(i warned you from the start)
and then i found my way
i hang no more ...
(I'll break your heart)

Tonight I sing for you one last time 
Tomorrow you’ll be somewhere new
I’ll go on without you 
Tonight I cradle you one last time
I wrote this melody for you 
Take it with you when you go

Tonight I sing this lullaby …one more time
If you wait for me I will follow you ..one more time 
I said Wait ..you couldn’t wait 
I can’t reach you anymore 
Hush now hush now don’t you cry 
My song will ease your mind
I said wait …for me
You couldn’t wait for me 
I can’t reach you anymore 
Tonight I sing this lullaby one last time
Tonight I sing for you
 one last time…

Lullaby-Temple Of The Haunted Man X purpleclaire x (LucyScrew Mix)

She thought she was the queen of hearts 
(ha ha ha ha )
Instead she was the dealers mark 
(Ha ha ha ha )
She thought she held all the cards 
(Ha ha ha ha )
Ripped them up into little parts 

She danced in confetti 
Screaming off with his head 

He thought he was the king of spades 
(Ha ha ha ha )
Til the joker he got played 
(Ha ha ha ha )
The king he thought he ruled this game 
(Ha ha ha ha )
Now he’s digging his own grave 
(Ha ha ha ha )

He overturned the table coz he put his chips on red 
She danced in confetti screaming off with his head
Off with his head 

Now they know …..the house always wins 
Shouldn’t have gone inside the house of love 

Roll right up no regrets
Go for broke never forget 
It’s just a game 
Roll right up place your bets
Wheel of fortune can’t be bested 
It’s just a game 
To be played …

Queen of Hearts

Here comes the Rain (cover)

Tripping over memories of you 
I’m tripping up
Tripping over melodies of you
I’m tripping up 
I waited all day for no reason 
But you might show
Faces come and go
People I may once have known and 
Now i know im lost without you 
Knowing I can’t be beside you
Now I just can’t find my feet

Always I slow down 
Try to let my blow mind catch up
Sunshine on a winters day 
Made me remember
Now I know I’m lost without you 
Knowing I can’t be beside you
Now I just can’t find my feet 
Now I just can’t find my feet at all
Tripping over memories of you 
Tipping over melodies of you 

I waited all day …for no reason..but you might show up.

All da rest - lil ol’ me 🤣🤘🏻💜🤘🏻
Reverbs - Officer Murphy 🤣🤘🏻💜🤘🏻

You're standing slowly dawning 
Everything’s not apple pie with me 
Ever since that morning 
You never knew but you just set me free 
French letters in your pocket
Heaven knows they sure weren’t meant for me 
Last chance your time is over 
Never knew my life belongs to me 

Never even noticed- I turned my face away
Never even noticed- my heart had gone astray
But I wanna thank you.

Sleep never did come easy 
When I was lying miles apart with you 
Now I dream so freely 
Learned that to my own good self be true …
My heart was slightly broken 
Years ago you couldn’t see the scars 
Well hidden softly spoken 
Sweetest lies can  only cut so far 

Never even noticed -turned my face away 
Never even noticed- my heart had gone astray 

But I wanna thank you

Thank you - I forgot that I was sweet without you 
Thank you- didn’t know my life was good without you 
Didn’t know that I was sweet without you…

The Lesson

I wish that I knew what I know now ….💜🤘🏻💜
