LYRICS
V1
If I could forget you, I’d try. 
If I could replace you, I’d try. 
If I could erase you, I’d try. 
Hello heartbreak, hi. 

C
Hello heartbreak, hi.
You’re always at my side.
Don’t say a word, 
Don’t say a word,
Don’t say a word this time.

V2
And then through every window, I saw you.
And then through every window, I saw you.
Mistaking strangers for you, I saw you
Hello heartbreak, hi. 

C
Hello heartbreak, hi, 
You’re always at my side.
Don’t say a word, 
Don’t say a word,
Don’t say a word this time.

Middle 8
Don’t say a word (don’t x5)
Don’t say a word (don’t x5)
Don’t say a word (don’t x5)
Don’t say a word 
Say a word 
Don’t say a word 
Say a word x2

C
Hello heartbreak, hi, 
You’re always at my side.
Don’t say a word, 
Don’t say a word,
Don’t say a word this time.  (C x 2 to finish )

Altadore - If Only For You

I was looking through the fog of an early morning trying to keep you
Holding you flowers to last, I was cast in a feeling trying to hold you
But you were an ocean, love, I couldn’t hold you

But I didn’t lose it, I kept it together, if only for you
I’m stuck on the freeway, I’m dust in the doorway, if only for you
I’m hung on a heartache, I’m mad at the mistakes, if only for you
But I didn’t know that I would lose you so soon

I was looking for the light in a midnight hurry trying to keep you
Holding your towers of glass, I was cracks in the ceiling trying to hold you
But you were an ocean, love, I couldn’t hold you

But I didn’t lose it, I kept it together, if only for you
I’m stuck on the freeway, I’m dust in the doorway, if only for you
I’m hung on a heartache, I’m mad at the mistakes, if only for you
But I didn’t know that I would lose you so soon

It only took a trip to the coast
To have a week alone at most
But I didn’t figure it out
I didn’t overcome what I’ve been thinking about
I’m in love with someone who doesn’t want me around

But I didn’t lose it, I kept it together, if only for you
I’m stuck on the freeway, I’m dust in the doorway, if only for you
I’m hung on a heartache, I’m mad at the mistakes, if only for you
But I didn’t know that I would lose you so soon

Morgan Delt - Some Sunsick Day

https://virginofthebirds.bandcamp.com/
https://songbytoadrecords.bandcamp.com/album/secret-kids
http://www.virginofthebirds.com/

"Spooky, Stony, Barely Over Thirty" is the first single from Secret Kids, the second LP from Seattle-based Virgin of the Birds set for release on vinyl and digital in October 2016 by Song, By Toad Records in the UK/Europe and Abandoned Love Records in the US. Named after a poor English translation of a Salvador Dali painting, Virgin of the Birds treads a line between intimate, lo-fi pop and the occasional grandeur of early art rock. About Virgin of the Birds’ debut EP, Mixed Choir, songs: Illinois noted, “If you like the rambling folk weirdness of Felt then you’ll no doubt like this as well.” Songwriter Jon Rooney started Virgin of the Birds as a solo project in San Francisco in the mid-00’s then built an ace band while living in Austin, TX for a couple of years before settling in Seattle. After releasing a series of free, home-recorded EPs on Rooney’s own Abandoned Love Records, Virgin of the Birds caught the attention of Edinburgh-based blog and label Song, By Toad, leading to several solo shows in Edinburgh, the inclusion of a disc full of songs on the label’s limited edition Five-Year Anniversary Box Set and the release of Winter Seeds, their 2014 debut full-length album that The Herald Scotland described as “essential.” Three songs Virgin of the Birds recorded in Edinburgh appear on the Song, By Toad Split 12” ‘Volume 4’ released in July 2016 alongside tracks by Baltimore-based troubadour Viking Moses and Scottish artists Supermoon and digitalanalogue.
 
Like Winter Seeds, Secret Kids was recorded at Her Car, a studio in Seattle’s Fremont neighborhood, by Virgin of the Birds’ drummer and producer, Colin J Nelson. Upon finishing the record, prolific local bass player Ken Nottingham (the Foghorns, Sam Russell & the Harborrats, Creeping Time) rounded out the lineup as the band embarked on their first West Coast tour alongside UK chamber pop band Storm the Palace in the spring of 2016.

I Liked You Better When You Needed Me

Teeth & Tongue - Turn, Turn, Turn

Sadly, I've been away from writing music for nearly a year now, but happily published three novels with Amazon in the last six months. If you would like to wander down that particular rabbit-hole, (and read some books about sex and death) here is the link to my author's website http://stevieoconnor99.wixsite.com/writer

Wolf’s Eye
Sometimes it feels like I spend my whole life,
Like a lamb walking amongst the wolves.
But wolves have feelings that get hurt too.
I’ll swap you my wool for a wolf’s eye, a wolf’s eye, a wolf’s eye-view.
I know sometimes horrors get to you.
Gets in the bones of you.
It gets to me too.
In the bones of you.
In the bones of you.

Come-on darling, come and dance with me.
Like when we were seventeen and we were all new and shiny.
Come-on darling, come and dance with me.
Like when we were seventeen and it was all new and shiny.

Sometimes it feels like I’ve spent my whole life,
Like a lamb walking amongst the wolves.
But wolves have feelings that get hurt too.
I’ll swap you my wool for a wolf’s eye-view.
I know sometimes horrors get to you.
It gets to me too.
I’m always looking out for you.
In the bones of you.
In the bones of you.

Come-on darling, come and dance with me.
Like when we were seventeen and we were all new and shiny.
Come-on darling, come and dance with me.
Like when we were seventeen and it was all new and shiny.

Come-on darling, come and dance with me.
Like when we were seventeen.
Come-on darling, come and dance with me.
Like when we were seventeen.
