SCARY MONSTERS AND NICE SPRITES

Adele vs. Skrillex - Set Fire To Everybody (Mashup)

Nero - Promises (Skrillex)

In John Mayer's words this is a 'love song for no one'. More like wishful thinking :)

Wasted time,
I've had my share.
The day that we met,
That you
Started to care.
I was in stasis,
You unfroze me love.
My scars fade away,
On the
Wings of your doves.

Waited, waited, waited,
I've waited so long.
Waited, waited, waited,
When my life was all wrong.

Waited, waited, waited,
I've waited so long.
Waited, waited, waited,
To sing you this song.

Sleeping next to strangers,
Night after night.
I take the blame,
For my 
Sorry plight.
The drugs, the sex,
And the rock 'n roll,
Drove me down the throat,
Of this
Big black hole.

Waited, waited, waited,
I've waited so long.
Waited, waited, waited,
To sing you this song.

Waited, waited, waited,
I've waited so long.
Waited, waited, waited,
When my life was all wrong.

The times that I've wasted, 
The scars that I've borne. 
They have paved 
The hard way
Straight to your soul.
You have made me,
A better man.
Purged my soul clean,
The 
Best that you can.

Waited, waited, waited,
I've waited so long.
Waited, waited, waited,
When my life was all wrong.

Waited, waited, waited,
I've waited so long.
Waited, waited, waited,
To sing you this song.

You have made me,
A better man.
I thank you,
The best that I can.


03 Better Man

An anthem for tortured souls stuck in the dark

My hands aren't tied,
My skin isn't torn,
My soul isn't crying,
So why am I cold.
This chill down my spine,
Losing track of time,
Wasted in my prime,
I wish I were bold.

Narrative:
This voice in my head,
Saying things I don't get,
Trying to work my socks off,
Only I'm not wearing any.
I wish I held a job,
I wish I pleased my folks,
I wish I was liked,
Things harder done than told.

I'm scared of the signs,
Of the crows on the line,
The storm isn't dying,
The noose tightens its hold.
With Judas I dine,
The gold rests in the mine,
The lair bathes in His wine,
But every hand I fold.

Narrative:
The stars in the sky,
Spell out the word failure.
I feel, I don't deserve to win,
But something tells me, I can.
I am betraying my strengths,
I am reaching out to the Lord,
And He just smiled at me,
He said He knew my worth.
But, I had to pass His test.

I'm breaking free,
I'm letting go.
I'm stepping out,
Bathed in the sweet sun's glow.
I'm earning back,
What I deserve.
I got no rush,
I'll take it slow. 

04 Epiphany


'She' is the indomitable spirit of music.

Nine months,
Babies being born.
Toiled night and day, 
Plucking out the thorns.
She came to me,
In the middle of the night.
Grabbed my hand,
Said you're ready for the fight.

So I'm woodshedding,
Shedding in the sun.
Candles are melting,
Hay's making in the sun.

Woodshedding,
Shedding in the barn.
Candles are burning,
Hay's making in the sun.

Sun,
I'm making hay in the sun.
Sick of being called,
The son of a gun.

Nine months back,
I was up on stage.
Got booed off,
Felt like jumping off a ledge.
She grabbed my hand,
Told me to head to the barn.
Looked the other way,
To my head she held a gun.

So I'm woodshedding,
Shedding in the sun.
Candles are burning,
I'm making hay in the sun.

Woodshedding,
I'm shedding in the barn.
Candles are melting,
Hay's making in the sun.

Sun,
I'm making hay in the sun.
Sick of being called,
The son of a gun.

Months have passed,
I've been reborn.
Cathching on to fourths and fifths,
Of any damn song.
She swayed with me,
As the crowd sang along.
Was worth the wait,
And the toiling all night long.

So I'm woodshedding,
Shedding in the sun.
Sick of being called,
The son of a gun.

Woodshedding,
I'm shedding in the barn.
Candles are melting,
Hay's making in the sun.

I'm woodshedding,
Shedding in the sun.
Candles are burning,
Hay's making in the sun.

Woodshedding,
Shedding in the barn.
Candles are melting,
Hay's making in the sun.

I ain't no son
Of a gun.

LIZZY(YOU DON'T HAVE TO SELL YOUR SOUL TONIGHT) 

Lizzy grants you what you want, not what you need (and no she probably isn't a reference to Lizzy Grant aka Lana Del Rey)

Lay, by my side.
Let me, 
Kiss your lips goodnight.
Lay, your head on my shoulder,
Let me,
Hold you through the night.

Lizzy, oh oh oh Lizzy,
You don't have to,
Sell yourself tonight.
Wake up, in the morning,
In my arms tight,
No you don't have to fight.
Lizzy, oh oh oh Lizzy,
Your eyes,
Brighter than the moon tonight.

The rough old men,
Hurt your pretty skin,
They pass you their sins.
But you don't have to take,
From the hand that feeds,
Oh our love will be,
Enough to keep us,
Keep us warm tonight. 

Lizzy, oh oh oh Lizzy,
You don't have to,
Sell yourself tonight.
Wake up, in the morning,
In my arms tight,
No you don't have to fight.
Lizzy, oh oh oh Lizzy,
Your eyes,
Brighter than the moon tonight.

This hard old world,
Scarred your tender mind.
I hope you find,
Peace in me tonight.
A penny for your kiss,
Two, for your name,
Three, for the game,
Four, for all the shame.

Lizzy, oh oh oh Lizzy,
You don't have to,
Sell yourself tonight.
Wake up, in the morning,
In my arms tight,
No you don't have to fight.
Lizzy, oh oh oh Lizzy,
Your eyes,
Brighter than the moon tonight.

We can stay,
In bed, all day,
Playing video games,
Sharing cigarettes.
Throw away,
Your high heels,
The cheap motel bills.
No one can steal your smile tonight.

Lizzy, oh oh oh Lizzy,
You don't have to,
Sell your soul tonight.
Wake up, in the morning,
In my arms tight,
No you don't have to fight.
Lizzy, take it easy,
Grant me,
My wish tonight.
Lizzy, oh oh oh Lizzy,
Be by my side,
All my sorry life.
Lizzy, oh oh oh Lizzy,
Lizzy, oh oh oh Lizzy.


06 Lizzy(You don't have to sell your soul tonight)

This song was inspired in a pub, standing next to this beautiful blonde out with her friends. It was possibly the worst phase in my life & as we swayed to the music & our bodies kept touching I had an epiphany that soon enough brought my life back on track.


The smell of your hair,
Lingers in my brain.
The spark in your eyes,
Rushes through like a train.
The moment that our,
Hands touched,
Still plucks the same chords,
In my heart.
I'm home.

Oh honey I promise you this,
I had once owed you a kiss.
I needed some time, 
To sort things out,
Now I'm home.

Say it's been,
A long time.
I think of the smile,
You shone me that night.
The spark that you,
Lit in me.
Burns bright still,
In the fire I breathe.
I'm home.

Oh honey I promise you this,
I had once owed you a kiss.
I needed some time, 
To sort things out,
Now I'm home.

I was lost in the crowd, 
Now I'm up on stage.
I search through the crowd,
For the smile on your face.
I thank you love,
For saving my life.
I wish someday,
I could call you my wife.
I'm home.

Oh honey I promise you this,
I had once owed you a kiss.
I needed some time, 
To sort things out,
Now I'm home.

Oh honey I promise you this,
I had once owed you a kiss.
I needed some time, 
To sort things out,
Now I'm home.

Here's my 
Kiss for you,
For bringing me home.
Honey I love you....

I'm home.... with you  

07 I'm Home (with you)

Tonight our joy will make the world shine bright :)

Saturday night,
But I ain't feeling blue.
My doublebed is empty,
It's comfortably true.
Soon I'll hit the pubs,
With a friend or two.
Wing the scene a while,
Right on cue.

And we will party all night,
My heart is your's till the morning light.
Raise your glasses, 
For the masses, 
Tonight we'll make the world shine bright.

And we will party all night,
My heart is your's till the morning light.
Raise your glasses, 
For the masses, 
Tonight we'll make the world shine bright.

She starts off,
With an awkward smile.
The night is young, 
We got many miles.
Our bodies melt,
In this heat exchange.
In this figure 8,
We are bound in chains.

And we will party all night,
My heart is your's till the morning light.
Raise your glasses, 
For the masses, 
Tonight we'll make the world shine bright.

And we will party all night,
My heart is your's till the morning light.
Raise your glasses, 
For the masses, 
Tonight we'll make the world shine bright.

Who says this doesnt 
Mean anything.
Who says this is
Just a fling.
My heart grew lighter,
Everytime we shared.
And on the mountaintop,
I knew we cared.....

And we will party all night,
My heart is your's till the morning light.
Raise your glasses, 
For the masses, 
Tonight we'll make the world shine bright.

And we will party all night,
My heart is your's till the morning light.
Raise your glasses, 
For the masses, 
Tonight we'll make the world shine bright.

And we will party all night,
My heart is your's till the morning light.
Raise your glasses, 
For the masses, 
Tonight we'll make the world shine bright.

08 Figure 8

Glasgow Kiss

A beautiful, dysfunctional mess.

You're a nutcase,
In a suitcase,
You're bad for my health.
Dirty mistress,
I'm in distress,
Screwed by your stealth.

Shut your face,
You're a broken disc.
Leave me alone,
You dirty bitch.
So tell me where you
Find your kicks.
Come and give me
A Glasgow kiss...
Glasgow kiss...
Glasgow kiss...

I'm addicted,
To your poison,
To your filthy taste.
You seduced me,
Overtook me,
Left me to waste.

Shut your face,
You're a broken disc.
Leave me alone,
You dirty bitch.
So tell me where you
Find your kicks.
Come and give me
A Glasgow kiss...
Glasgow kiss...
Glasgow kiss...

Can't you be less possesive,
Won't you be less obsessive.
Let the little things in life,
Little things that make us smile...
Make us smile...
Make us smile...

You're my sweetness,
My little princess,
I hate to see you cry.
Let me kiss you,
Disgrace you,
I hate to love your smile.

Shut your face,
You're a broken disc.
Leave me alone,
You dirty bitch.
So tell me where you
Find your kicks.
Come and give me
A Glasgow kiss...
Glasgow kiss...
Glasgow kiss... 

Glasgow Kiss

Hunting Will Good

There is such great freedom to be had in reversing the social ladder.

Saw it in their eyes,
Heard it in their cries.
Saw it in their tears,
I felt it in their fears.

No, I won't mind,
If you take it away 
From me tonight.
Oh, I won't find,
A reason worth
A  speck of light.

Let me pray,
For a smile on those faces.
Show me the way,
To wipe those tears away.
Coz I'm hunting will good again,
Reversing the age-old trend.

Felt sorry for myself,
Worried bout my health.
The ladies in their red,
The riddles in my head.

No, I don't need,
My wishes to come
True tonight.
Just one good deed,
For me to be
Remembered by.

Let me pray,
For a smile on those faces.
Show me the way,
To wipe those tears away.
Coz I'm hunting will good again,
Reversing the age-old trend.

Insignificant,
My petty troubles fade away.
The world's in need,
To bathe in the light of day.
It's not sacrifice,
It's duty without pay.
Big red corvette,
Down an open highway.

Let me pray,
For a smile on those faces.
Show me the way,
To wipe those tears away.
Coz I'm hunting will good again,
Reversing the age-old trend.
Coz I'm good will hunting again,
Guiding my ride round the bend.
