LYRICS

Wake up early in the morning
I don’t have the energy but I’m on it
Imma do it how they want it
I’m a wreck but it’s ok if I’m honest, right?

No, not too good; I’m living ok
Every day is the same, yuh
Oh my good god, a sweet disarray
It’s how I handle the pain, yuh

PRE-CHORUS
So what’s it going to be then?
You’re tripping up while you search for a reason yeah
Around again we go and then
On repeat, like you even believe it yeah


CHORUS
What the fuck do you think?
‘Cause nobody’s listening
Got blood on the kitchen sink
You watch it wash away
Kill em’ with vanity 
‘Cause nobody’s listening
A delicate fantasy
You watch it wash away
Playing with fire at your leisure 
Feeling the heat from the embers 
Paying the price for your pleasure

It’s not a mystery
Little by little you come for me
But it’s a long game now
And little by little I’ll figure you out 
No, not too good, it’s running away 
Every day is the same yeah
Oh my good god is all I can say
Don’t really handle the pain yuh

PRE-CHORUS
So what’s it going to be then?
You’re tripping up while you search for a reason yeah
Around again we go and then
On repeat, like you even believe it yeah


CHORUS
What the fuck do you think?
‘Cause nobody’s listening
Got blood on the kitchen sink
You watch it wash away
Kill em’ with vanity 
‘Cause nobody’s listening
A delicate fantasy
You watch it wash away
Playing with fire at your leisure 
Feeling the heat from the embers 
Paying the price for your pleasure

ah
You’re running away, running away again
ah
You slip up while we play pretend
ah
You’re running away, running away again
ah
You’re slipping while we play pretend 

CHORUS
What the fuck do you think?
‘Cause nobody’s listening
Got blood on the kitchen sink
You watch it wash away
Kill em’ with vanity 
‘Cause nobody’s listening
A delicate fantasy
You watch it wash away
Playing with fire at your leisure 
Feeling the heat from the embers 
Paying the price for your pleasure

Thank you so much to everyone who made this track possible. Been sitting on this one for a MINUTE so I'm so happy to be able to finally share it with y'all. Hope ya like it x

LYRICS
Show me how I should love
Been so long since the real thing
I don’t know how to be
Spend my nights overthinking
I don’t sleep so I don’t dream
Can’t be in the dark if the light’s on
Wrap me up like it’s enough
We could be all that we wanna be

Promise I’ll figure shit out
I’m not giving up on us now
I don’t know why ya have doubt
You got me now
Promise I’ll figure shit out
I’m not giving up on us now
I don’t know why ya have doubt
You got me now
You got me now

I jump
You run
We’re walking on a thin line
I’ll hold
My breath
You’re saying it’ll be fine
I guess
I’m good
But I just want you closer
I’ll just
Dive in
I’m praying I don’t get burned

You know I
You know I
You know I’m lost in my head

I don’t know what to think
Are we heading for nowhere?
I’m afraid you won’t wait
Does it kill you to stay here?
All our time was not a waste
But is it really love if it’s hard work?
I want you here face to face
Come on baby, let’s go in head first

Promise I’ll figure shit out
I’m not giving up on us now
I don’t know why ya have doubt
You got me now
Promise I’ll figure shit out
I’m not giving up on us now
I don’t know why ya have doubt
You got me now
You got me now

I jump
You run
We’re walking on a thin line
I’ll hold
My breath
You’re saying it’ll be fine
I guess
I’m good
But I just want you closer
I’ll just
Dive in
I’m praying I don’t get burned

You know I
You know I
You know I’m lost in my head

thank you sm for listening to my thought spiral! i hope it makes you feel less alone & empowered to flip your own mental switch <3 

trust issues, myself included
pulling my hair, pull at the rootage
don't say it, what if it's stupid?
playing it safe
oh now i'm muted

but imma bite it,
don't see me hide it, 
try it
pick out the ripest, finest, brightest
without the darkest, how can you know what the light is?

heart beat like i'm 'bout to blow
heating up, i'm in overload
open up for the antidote
flip the switch like

heart beat like i'm 'bout to blow
heating up, i'm in overload
open up for the antidote
flip the switch like

trust issues, my gut included
grinding my teeth til we hit the rootage
and i, and i
feel the chemicals kicking in
and i, and i
live off fumes of adrenaline

god i'm in a mess tryna be ok
looking for the eye in a hurricane
but i'm coming back again
a genesis from rain

heart beat like i'm 'bout to blow
heating up, i'm in overload
open up for the antidote
flip the switch like

heart beat like i'm 'bout to blow
heating up, i'm in overload
open up for the antidote
flip the switch like

i am not human,
i'm divine
taking a shape in my own time
i am before and after life
i flip the switch like

but imma bite it,
don't see me hide it, 
try it
pick out the ripest, finest, brightest
without the darkest, how can you know what the light is?

heart beat like i'm 'bout to blow
heating up, i'm in overload
open up for the antidote
flip the switch like

heart beat like i'm 'bout to blow
heating up, i'm in overload
open up for the antidote
flip the switch like

FLIP THE SWITCH (with Faffi)

I wrote Dear God at the end of 2016, following what I believed was not only a turbulent year but also one characterised by callousness over care. I was also reflecting on the past couple of years of my own life, and I was still struggling to come to terms with personal losses and heartache. This song was my way of coping with it all.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for listening and for your support,

LYRICS 

Dear God, 
I have some questions to ask
It's alright if you pass
I'm just a ghost from your past

Dear God,
Can't you cure my disease?
This disease of the mind
Or am I not worth the time?

'Cause dear god,
I lost you in the dark
When Death hit His mark
And my soul lost its spark

And I got so confused when I came out so bruised
And I lost all my youth
And I couldn't find you
And it's easy to say that you left me that day
But I left you in a way
And I was never the same

CHORUS
Oh no, I cannot stand it but you know better
I'm damned, but I'll pray
Is life really better this way?
I'm sure there are answers
And I know I'm so erratic but hopeful
So I will still ask anyway
Is life really better this way?
I hope I find answers some day
I hope I find answers some day

Dear God,
I've been told that you love 
All the life on this earth
But is it really deserved?

Dear God,
Why is there so much pain
Falsely done in your name
Or are your children to blame?

'Cause my god,
How can people behave
In the cruellest of ways
And believe they'll be saved?

And I get so confused when they claim that they're right
Disguised in your light
With a venomous bite
And it's easy to say you'll condemn them one day
But surely they pray
Does that make it okay?

CHORUS
Oh no, I cannot stand it but you know better
I'm damned, but I'll pray
Is life really better this way?
I'm sure there are answers
And I know I'm so erratic but hopeful
So I will still ask anyway
Is life really better this way?
I hope I find answers some day
I hope I find answers some day

Dear God,
I had some questions to ask
It's alright if you passed
I'm just a ghost

Dear God (demo)

LYRICS

You took issue with all my issues
Words were misused
We continued to play tricks on our hearts
We were falling apart with complete disregard
I was so different
You got so distant
Was I insufficient?

Now you don't have to pretend that you'll stay
We got lost in every shade of grey
But give me one last goodbye
Would it hurt us to try?

CHORUS
Oh
Pull me a little bit closer
Oh
We can call it closure
When all my words start to fail me
We'll tell the truth with our bodies

I was trying
I provided but you decided we were fighting
How did we fuck this up?
We were more than enough
I was made for your touch
You were my first love
I was your first love
It could be worse love

Now you don't have to pretend that you'll stay
We got lost in every shade of grey
But give me one last goodbye
Would it hurt us to try?

CHORUS
Oh
Pull me a little bit closer
Oh
We can call it closure
Oh
Pull me a little bit closer
Oh
We can call it closure
When all my words start to fail me
We'll tell the truth with our bodies

You were perfect 
It's still worth it
Can you feel this?
From the first kiss
I was hooked in
You're an ocean
I'll learn to swim

Oh
Pull me a little bit closer
Oh
We can call it closure
Oh
Pull me a little bit closer
Oh
We can call it closure
When all my words start to fail me
We'll tell the truth with our bodies
We can call it closure
We can call it closure
We can call it closure
We can call it closure

Closure

My behaviour has got me in a bind
I need a saviour; "please forgive my godless mind"
I lack the patience to rectify all of my crimes
So I'll stay up at night, contemplate my lack of spine
I was mistaken to even play a part
A shot of absinthe gave me a change of heart
Take another hit, let that feeling heal the scars
I could've loved you, but we were broken from the start

Did you want me
Like I want you?
Our love was doomed, but that's something we always knew
You can have me
Take my body
Come on, baby
I'm self-destructing over you

Ah ah ah
I'm self-destructing over you
Ah ah ah
I'm self-destructing over you

I find no comfort in the things I speculate
It's not my fault that you can't articulate
What we really were
So my mind just recreates all of our memories
I'll just deal with my mistakes

Did you want me
Like I want you?
Our love was doomed, but that's something we always knew
You can have me
Take my body
Come on, baby
I'm self-destructing over you

Ah ah ah
I'm self-destructing over you
Ah ah ah
I'm self-destructing over you

If you want this, babe
Don't say another word
We'll let our fires burn
Although the flames may hurt
This self-inflicted pain
Oh, will I ever learn?
'Cause I still want you
I'm at the point of no return

Did you want me
Like I want you?
Our love was doomed, but that's something we always knew
You can have me
Take my body
Come on, baby
I'm self-destructing over you

Ah ah ah
I'm self-destructing over you
Ah ah ah
I'm self-destructing over you
Ah ah ah
I'm self-destructing over you
Ah ah ah
I'm self-destructing over you

so i'll throw myself into the unknown
baby

we talk ten hours, but you're standing still

give me something stimulating
when you're with me hesitating
don't you worry
i am by your side

take me
i'm in it for the ride
i'm in it for the highs & lows
baby
