Stay So x Big Mood

Co starring Dexta

Oh this simple life we're living is boring me to tears 
I've been waiting for a godsend now for far too many years 
I've been wandering the streets 
Wearing the hat you used to wear when we were alone 
In the bedroom. Now the photographs are all that's left 
A memory laid good to rest 
A tribute to the ones we used to know so well 
The faces that I miss 

And oh, this world is falling down
And you can't understand me now 
And no one here can lead us through the maze 

Oh the pressure that I'm feeling was locked inside a drawer 
But the heavy weight from times of late
Has broken down the door 
You were drunk and I was too 
You said goodbye, I took a chance and followed you 
Do you remember lying naked on the bed all day? 
The hours seemed to slip away 
Remember when you're far away across the sea 
The simple life we used to lead 

Oh she left me by the traffic lights, you found me just the same 
And all the songs I write about that night 
Never help to clear my brain 
This cryptic code to revelry 
The naive view of how our lives were meant to be 
But now I'm haunted by the way you used to bite your lip 
And close an eye in every picture 
Haunted by the tattoo just below your sleeve 
The day you wouldn't left me leave 

Never could you hope to see 
How hollow I was meant to feel tonight 
We spied eyes through silver sheets 
Remembered what I meant to be alive 
Never could you hope to learn 
Your flame was hot and destined to burn bright 
Hopeless in a sea of flesh 
Granted presence in your special light 

To be honest with you darling, it was never meant to last 
You were all that filled my present, now you're buried in my past 
I surrendered all I knew 
Just for the chance to spend a week alone with you 
And in the summer, took a trip back home to forget you 
My skin turned brown, my blood turned blue 
In the summer, never got a call or letter through 
This fickle heart has paid it's dues

And oh this life is over now 
When we would both shake up the town 
Tequila sunshine glistening through 
Tequila sunshine glistening through 
Tequila sunshine glistening through the day

In Truth

Tequila Sunshine

I learnt a tricky lesson at the age of twenty four 
I’d never known defeat till she came knocking at the door
It’s a shame to feel so heavy, so heavy in these times 
Now there’s a man outside my window shouting something about a war 
I am numb to all his warnings, I have heard them all before
I should learn to be a better man, a better man than I 

Just give me a minute to breathe
We’re writing the tale of the century
It’s everything I’ll ever be

Seems everyone’s a soap box standing on a worthy cause 
Mine broke under the weight of a diminishing applause 
There’s a story being written. A truer tale than mine 
I tried to raise my voice but it got lost within the crowds 
If given but an inch, my head would rise above the clouds
There’s a method of floatation that I could never find 

Have we given up on our dream? 
We all have to wake up eventually 
Maybe it’s time. Maybe it’s time we made peace

Tale Of The Century

There’s a whole list of reasons why we were meant to be
I missed your face upon the days we were divided by the sea
I wrote a letter to you darling but it never made the post
It seems if pride is my affliction, I’m the worthiest of host
Though the ocean is my prison, though the waves keep us apart 
I hoped in curtesy, you’d honour safe returning of my heart
We spoke of tales of your adventures, writing late into the night
Hearing tales of you adventures was the best part of the night

But as the bitter wind hits my bones
It coincides with the thought 
That I was wrong to let you go
But in truth, only god knows

There’s a hole in my diary where your name used to be 
I find it’s presence overwhelming every time I stop and see 
Such a wretched hole it is, but to the untrained eye 
Would never stop and ask me what I did for joy in my life 
Though your face is still a blessing, though your smile is still the cure 
I’m still uncertain if I’ll ever see your face upon these shores 
I’ll write a letter to you darling telling all you need to hear 
I’ll cast my words into the fire just to have you with me here my dear 

Only God Knows

I was down by the river
I was deep in your water when the devil spoke out 
Heard the devil speak out 
I'd been praying for a release
I'd been begging down on my knees for something to sing about 
Well your affliction took like disease 
Led me far away from the creek and lit a fire inside 
Now I'm burning up for your touch 
I've a slave to your system
Every situation you come to mind 

So hold me my holy 
My one and only fantasy tonight 
Well there's a thousand rivers out there 
But only one I want to be inside 
Well I pray at the alter
Sing 'god, hallelujah, come my way' 
But she's an unforgiving mistress 
And baby I want to be her slave 

So hold me my holy 
My unwritten story is yours to make 
I surrendered to your needs 
I was born again into the stream
Into my favourite place 
Just to swim through your body 
Your taste in my bloodstream's all I crave
Now I yearn for a remedy constantly 
Anything I can see that will be able to ease the pain away 

Cause I'm waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting on you

My Holy

Lyrics:
Do you know me well?
Could you paint my skin? 
Do you think about the days we wasted? 
Do you recall anything? 
Do you dream in the daytime? 
Am I still within your mind? 
What's the verdict you arrive to? 

Do you take me for a wise man? 
Or would you take me for a fool? 
Will you take me on the mountain side just one more time 
As the wind whispers to you 
Does she tell you of the future? 
Or did you read it in the headlights while we made our work into an art 
I wish you well my friend, if a friend is all you are.

Hallowed be the memory of it all 
It was the most majestic dream 
I can recall, but not relive the things I've seen 
So I dream in the daytime 
How you occupy my mind with the notion I'm prescribed to.

MY FRIEND

Hallowed be the ground she walks upon
She is the most majestic queen. 
Though none of us are worthy of her time 
She gifts her soul only to me. 
She's a world to find, she's a dream of mine 
She's a moment in time I want to be inside. 
But I am heavy on the water
And I will drown before I make it to her side. 

Can you oversee my everything? 

Cursed are the ones who occupy her time 
When I am far away. 
And I want the eyes of everyone 
Who sees my love going about her day. 
I am jealousy, idiocracy
I was riddled with sin, I was taken in by pride. 
Now I am heavy on the water
And I will drown before I make it to her side. 

Can you oversee my everything?
