Captain - Tom Bem (Dexter Britain Reinvention)

Track 5 of 5 in the EP 'Shallows'. A concept album of love, betrayal and heartbreak.
Complete resignation. You've tried hating, you've tried forgetting. It's not possible. The only way to move on for your own emotional well being is not by trying to forget, but by forgiving.
"I can't forget, so ill forgive you instead."

I was the captain, blind to the mutiny
and for so long I've been haunted by the echoes of your love.
A marathon of resent, I'm exhausted by regret.
I've wished so hard to forget you, and start afresh.

My eyes which were only for you,
have looked for the new, but my minds hooked on the truth
Ive become addicted
to dwelling over why it's me who's afflicted
and you who inflicted.

I'm breaking down these wall that keep me treading these shallows
It's time to end this war in my head
I can't forget, so I'll forgive you instead
I can't forget you.
I've tread these shallows, shallows,
I've tread these shallows for far too long.

Stop me drowning.

Track 1 of 5 in the EP 'Shallows'. A concept album of love, betrayal and heartbreak.
Something is not right in your relationship. You choose to ignore your intuitions, afraid of what you will find. You stay loving them blindly.

All eyes on me,
everybody is waiting to see how
I am going to deal with you now.
You're the poison,
infecting my brain telling me 'it's okay,
time to move on, theres nothing to see here.'
I keep denying what i know is true.
I keep on forcing myself to stay in love with you.
I keep Ignoring it so i fail to see,
you're the cancer in my heart and you're killing me.

Oh I'm, I'm blindly loving you.

Oh, I've stalled
caught between what I know and how I feel,
I think it's time that I should move on.
Cos you're the poison,
keeping my sight from me keeping me blind, 
blinded by love, hopelessly lost to you.

I keep on loving you, loving you blindly.

It's always special to find the acapella's to Biggies amazing voice, his groove and flow is like no other rap artists I've heard. Ever since I heard him for the first time I've been in love with his voice and lyrics. I hope I have managed to create a good vibe feeling on this track :) Biggie deserves only the best! This song is for all of you who support my music, you have no idea how much it means to me:)

After having some great records out on Vicious Black and Onelove to name a few, Teddy Black and Rouge have burst onto the house music scene and are not letting anyone stand in their way. 

We here at Hearts On Fire are more than excited to deliver our second release and our first with Teddy and Rouge. 

This deep house number oozes class and has the sass to get any dance floor moving. 
Remixes from Flashback and Jam Xpress tie up the package with a nice little bow.

In our home all day I waited for the change
Something warm that I could say
Somehow I don't care
Though I love the clothes she wears
And I love her body bare

So I pray that it wont feel the same
Don't think that I can't see it in your eyes
Darling yeah we both knew it from the start
Some minds are better kept apart.

Here I pass the day in a most peculiar way
Watching ships out on the bay
And I swallow so hard
Am I too weak to fight
As the day becomes the night and I don't want to be right

So I pray that it wont feel the same
Don't think that I can't see it in your eyes
Darling yeah we both knew it from the start
Some minds are better kept apart.

Get It Now

Some Minds feat. Andrew Wyatt

Often when pursuing a love interest, there can be times of hot and cold behaviour or ‘love games’. Hide and Seek outlines the struggle of trying to understand why a new love interest can be interested one minute and not interested the next. It's metaphorically likened to the playground game ‘hide and seek’. The second verse has a French Christian prayer to the patron saint of lost things Saint Antoine, which asks to help find the love that has been lost.

Day one I was dazed by you
Caught off guard and made a game by you
I'm afraid that I can only lose
But somehow I still wanna play around with you

I've fallen, I know it
Can't help but show it
Feels like I need it
Wonder if she sees it, if there's
One thing I've learnt, it's that
I never learn, cos I
still seek and yearn, for the
things that always hurt, so I
Close my eyes, count to 10 and she's gone again
Disappeared she's like magic, was it all pretend?
I see you, do you see me too?

Don't you know, don't you know what I want?
Don't you know, don't you know what I need?
Hide and Seek. You're playing Hide and Seek with me.

Running round in circles,
Jumping all her hurdles,
She's hiding in the shadows,
Now I'm afraid of darkness.
Ready or not, here I come and I'm chasing hard,
When I find you Im gonna keep you right by my side. 
Antoine De Padou, toi qui es si bon et si doux
Aidez moi a trouver l'amour que j'ai perdu.



Close my eyes, count to 10 and she's gone again
Disappeared she's like magic, and I'm tricked again.
I see you, do you see me too?  

Don't you know, don't you know what I want?
Don't you know, don't you know what I need?
Hide and Seek. You're playing Hide and Seek with me.

I can see that you've been thinking bout hiding again
Just to protect yourself, well let me tell you what you'll find girl...
That you're wrong girl, that you're lost girl.
You should allow to let me find you again.

Summer, you’re on your own
Lover, you’re all alone

But I saw
That your love
Can build me up
Higher

You know, that I’m tired
Still I wonder

Why I know
That your love
Can build me up
Higher
