Lyrics

I’m watching the days roll by
And I'm comparing them side by side
Nothing ever seems to change at all
Just trapped in a loop of dull.

Will someone ease my brain?
‘Cos I just want to feel the rain again
On my skin, glistening, as the thunderstorm begins.
I just want to feel, alive again.

I wanna live my life, but it’s on pause
When I talk to my friends it’s on calls
My eyes can’t take much more of this blue light
But there’s no escape in sight.

Will someone ease my brain?
‘Cos I just want to feel the rain again
On my skin, glistening, as the thunderstorm begins.
I just to feel, alive again.

And I know there’ll come a day
When I hold your hand again
And though it may seem far away right now
I’ll see you soon, I’ll wait for you!

Alive Again

Thank you so much to Jenni for providing the gorgeous violin section for this song, it really brought the whole thing to life!

Lyrics:
That day we went wild, purple clouds painted the sky.
Some memories will stay with you forever
Wish we could spend some more time together.

If there was anywhere that I could be
I'd be with you...

In Joshua Tree, Joshua Tree
There's no place i'd rather be
Than to be with you, in Joshua Tree.

We climbed so high, reaching our hands to the sky
All our problems just seemed so far away, wish we were there to stay.
And though we had to go, we still stuck around for the sun to set.
And the world became golden, a sight to behold and we took all the joy with us in the car.

If there was anywhere that I could be
I'd be with you...

In Joshua Tree, Joshua Tree
There's no place i'd rather be
Than to be with you, in Joshua Tree.

Where we sung those songs, at the top of our lungs
And we knew all the words so well.
And though the day is done, like the end of those songs
I still remember when we went to Joshua Tree.

Joshua Tree

Game Over

It's Later Than You Think

I had this guitar lick kicking around for ages and ages. I didn't really know what to do with it until my friend Lucoline (https://soundcloud.app.goo.gl/GAJYT) had a go at it and we came up with this.

Lyrics:
The moon looks sharp tonight
cutting through the atmosphere
dark shadows pierce the light
so lonely and austere

my breath fogs up like ice
but all my thoughts are crystal clear
I won't let you break my stride
I am getting out of here

Sharp footsteps pound behind
stirring up my hopes and fears
your voice rings clear and bright
it echoes in my ears

Such force and eloquence
that every word is insincere
I won't let you break my stride
I am getting out of here

What do you take me for?
You don't love me anymore
and I'm not the girl to stick around 
just to numb your pain
Your broken and wounded soul
it only keeps you in control
but I realized and it's hit me like
a bullet to my brain

Cold Shoulder

I’ve been waiting for a sign
But now I think your time’s up
Oh for pity’s sake
why don’t you make your mind up

I seen you look away
Do you think I’m blind?
When I’m out of sight 
Am I out of your mind? 

Don’t you gimme cold shoulder 
Stiff upper lip like a soldier 
No don’t you gimme cold shoulder 
You’ll be colder when I’m gone 

You’re so hot in the night
But so cold in the morning
You wouldn’t look me in the eye
And I should have seen the warning

Are we DOA, do we have a chance 
To reanimate our zombie romance? 

Don’t you gimme cold shoulder 
I ain’t waiting getting older 
No don’t you gimme cold shoulder 
You’ll be colder when I’m gone 

Are we DOA, Are we DOA
Are we DOA, Are we DOA

Don’t you gimme cold shoulder 
Don’t you gimme cold shoulder 
No don’t you gimme cold shoulder 
You’ll be even colder when I’m gone
