A relatable feeling amongst young couples, the song Better In Time is about one's promise to the other that though the situation they're in now may be lacking, they should enjoy the present while waiting for their bright and thriving future.

With the contrast of energy and dynamic between the verses and chorus', Better In Time imitates the tidal feeling of ups and downs, doubts and reassurances, that most have when experiencing immature and over-confident relationships.

Better In Time

Wilbur Soot - I'm Sorry Boris

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
I figured out what can move me
It's trains and hugs, planes and sushi
And I'm sorry, but Boris, I'm leaving
I'm not good for anyone here

[Verse 2]
We reached the end of a decade
Greenwich morphs to an arcade
Suffolk turns into a highway
Up to Hamlet's a tax break
New Islington, a headache
And Richmond's still shit

[Verse 3]
I can't believe that I'm leaving
I can't believe that I'm leaving
I don't think I want to leave you
I don't think I want to leave you here alone

[Bridge]
But they'll knock down the pubs before helping you
And burn down your towers before helping you
They'll charge for your healthcare before helping you
They'll make you jump under trains before helping you
[Outro]
And even though I'm finished, I'm not quite done with it
No matter how far I run south, I'm always there
My lovers, my colleagues, my best friends and enemies
I don't think I want to leave you

Lyrics:

[Intro]
*Dialing tone*

[Verse 1]
You know it takes a lot to move me
So if you figure it out, tell me
I trace figures on your smile lines
Work a formula to cure me?

[Verse 2]
And I'm lonely
There I said it
Nine million people
I always seem to add them up

[Verse 3]
I could go away
I could pack my things and be gone before you wake
You know I've tried hard to love me too
It always seems to fall in through

[Verse 4]
Maybe one day I'll live in La Jolla
Drinking cocktails out over the water
My own personal sunset
To give each day its own diploma
And you know it's funny
Amid my backseat taxi jaunts
I'm trying to ignore the skyline
So I don't figure out where you
[Outro]
*Phone ringing*

Wilbur Soot - Your Sister Was Right

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
I thought I couldn't love anymore
Turns  out I can't
Not  for the same reasons as before
I use everyone I ever meet
I can't find the perfect match
Abuse  those I love
While  I ostracise the ones who love me back

[Verse 2]
On the path of least resistance
I  find myself salting the earth
Every time that I miss you
I feel the way you hurt
And I don't deserve you
You  deserve the world
Though it feels like we were built from the same
Dirt

[Chorus]
Ah-ah-ah
Oh, I hate to say it but your sister was right
Don't trust English boys with far too much free time
I hate to say it but your sister was right
I'm nothing but a problem, leave you crying overnight
And I hate to say it but your sister was right
I can't focus on the future, only my short sight
I hate to say it but your sister was right
I'm a wanker, complete wanker
A fucking waste of time

Wilbur Soot - Losing Face

Lyrics:

[Intro]
Woo-wee!
Woo!

[Verse 1]
First and foremost
Oh, let it be said, my dear
I was gonna wait for you
So this is not an act of spite
It's a visceral coming-to
She wrote an album
And that’s something that I can’t do
But what I can do is spit the truth
And it all leads back to you

[Verse 2]
Secondly, I know I haven't written much
You know the way I can be
Tonight, I'm fucking drunk
So it's all gonna be about me
Take a seat, pull up a chair
Give me one beat to fill my glass
I've lost a piece of me in you
But you've lost all your past

[Chorus]
Is he better than me?
Has he seen more to this life?
Can he smoke more?
Can he fuck more?
Are you good enough to be his wife?
Can he break me?
Can he break you?
Oh, I don’t know what I’m to do
Yes, I don’t know what I’ll fuckin' do
[Verse 3]
I've seen our café, I've clocked our plans
Oh, what could have been
If you didn’t go and fall in love
And ruin everything
I've seen him
I've been him
I've felt the same way
But now I break against the dirt
Along with our cafés

[Chorus]
Is he better than me?
Has he seen more to this life?
Can he smoke more?
Can he fuck more?
Are you good enough to be his wife?
Can he break me?
Can he break you?
Well, I don’t know what I’m to do
Yes, I don’t know what I’ll fuckin' do

[Bridge]
I've lost all meaning
I've lost my sense of hope
I've seen him going out with you
I've seen what he can do
So touch him
And break me
Strip naked
Embrace him
Lose faith in
His pace, his
Stamina and grace
I’m losing face
I’m losing face
I’m losing
[Outro]
Ooh-ooh, mmm-mmm
I don't care, I want you here
As long as you're happy, I don't care

Losing Face

Wilbur Soot - Since I Saw Vienna

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
The cute bomber jacket you've had since sixth form
Adorned with patches of places you’ve been
Is nothing on my khaki coat that I got
From a roadside when I was sixteen
My boots are from airports
My backpack's from France
I'm not a man of substance and so I’ll pretend
To be a wanderer, wandering
Leaving ascetic belongings in hostels and restaurant bins

[Verse 2]
(Cut that bit out *laughs*)
The roads are my home as horizon's my target
If I keep on moving, never lose sight of it
Treating my memory of you like a fire, let it
Burn out, don't fight it and try to move on
It's been sixty weeks since I saw Vienna
A bandage and a wide smile slapped across my face
I'll pick up my hiking boots when I am ready
And I'll put down my roots when I'm dead

[Verse 3]
The distance is futile
Come on, don't be hasty
You’ll get that feeling deep inside your bones
I’ll be gone then when you must be alone

Since I Saw Vienna

Wilbur Soot - Saline Solution

Lyrics:

[Intro]
One, two, three and four

[Verse 1]
I think this time I'm dying
I’m not melodramatic
I'm just pragmatic beyond any
Reasoning for thinking I've got
Fuckin’ rabies, or something

[Refrain 1]
I think this time I'm dying
I think this time I'm dying

[Verse 2]
I think I've lost my mind
Blurring the fact and the fictions
While simultaneously fixing
Myself up with a girl
Named Panadol
Bite the tablet, elixir
Disintegrate, mouth's a mixer

[Refrain 2]
I think I've lost my mind
I think I've lost my mind
[Bridge]
If I could just break one more night
Maybe I could wake up and feel alright
My optimistically set alarm clock time
Serves only to mock me with flashing lights

[Verse 3]
I think I've made my choice
I’m a deceased playing victim
Slip the face, slip the victory
I think I’ve made my choice
Sit secluded in hatred
Void the plans friends are making
I think I've found my voice
I’m a leech sucking blood bags
Taste defeat, it's a sandbag

[Outro]
Saline solution
Saline solution to all your
Saline solution to all your
Saline solution to all your problems

Wilbur Soot - Jubilee Line

Lyrics:

[Intro: Julie Berry]
Northern and Waterloo and City Lines, and National Rail Services
This train terminates at Stanmore

[Verse 1: Wilbur Soot]
Wasting your time
You're wasting mine
I hate to see you leaving
A fate worse than dying

[Verse 2: Wilbur Soot]
Your city gave me asthma
So that's why I'm fucking leaving
And your water gave me cancer
And the pavement hurt my feelings

[Bridge: Wilbur Soot]
Shout at the wall
'Cause the walls don't fucking love you
Shout at the wall
'Cause the walls don't fucking love you

[Acoustic Guitar Solo]

[Refrain]
There's a reason
That London puts barriers on the tube line
There's a reason
That London puts barriers on the rails
There's a reason
That London puts barriers on the tube line
There's a reason
That London puts barriers on the rails
There's a reason
That London puts barriers on the tube line
[Outro: Wilbur Soot]
There's a reason they fail

A bunch of songs that weren't good enough or didn't fit the vibe of the EP. My favourite being "Maybe I Was Boring" so I named this little EP after it. The cover art is me on the floor.

Lyrics:

[Verse 1: Wilbur Soot]
He never had cool stories
He doesn't make your heart beat
Used to love his mystery
But now he's just exhausting
Another day spent just laying in his room
The stench of incense
And some undelivered food

[Chorus: Wilbur Soot, Both]
And she thought
"What if he thinks I'm the one?And I'll be forced to rot away
With him and his obsessions
With trivial things
Like the amount of fucking love hearts I finish a text message with"

[Verse 2: Wilbur Soot, Emma Taylor]
And when you hold his hands
It doesn't feel like flying
And when you take his breath away
He might as well be dying
And you're dying to breathe
You're trapped in his cage
And it's shrinking

[Chorus: Wilbur Soot, Both]
And she thought
"What if he just never leaves?
Or if he doesn't get the message?
And he doesn't hear my pleas?"
So she just started screaming

[Outro: Wilbur Soot, Emma Taylor]
"Why can't he just bore me to death?"
"Why can't he just bore me to death?"
"Oh, why can't he just bore me to death?"
"Why can't he just bore me to death?"
"Oh, why can't he just bore me to death?"
"Why can't he just bore me to death?"
"Oh, Why can't he just bore me to death?"

Maybe I Was Boring

A bunch of songs that weren't good enough or didn't fit the vibe of the EP. My favourite being "Maybe I Was Boring" so I named this little EP after it. The cover art is me on the floor.

Lyrics:

[Intro]
Yeah, I'm recording
One, two, three, four

[Verse 1]
Bouncer greets us at the door
He can tell we've been here before
So he lets us pass
And we climb up 15 flights of stairs
And find that spot in the corner just over there

[Verse 2]
It's only 6:30 but we're starting to drink
I'm ordering the usual
I think I need a change of pace
London's bursting at the seams
It's not quite the place I hoped I'd be

[Chorus]
It's white wine in a Wetherspoons
It's fine dining with cheap perfume
It's country walks down the motorway
How many drugs have you done today?

[Verse 3]
'Cause concrete sculptures and broken glass
It's the lamp posts who guide our paths
Because the moon can't get in
And the clouds hang heavy
Blocking out his pursuit
And booze hangs limply on our rental suits

[Verse 4]
'Cause we're fires, we're burning bright
Breaking bottles and starting fights
But the evening has other plans
Run as they pull up with two more vans

[Chorus]
It's white wine in a Wetherspoons
It's fine dining with cheap perfume
It's country walks down the motorway
How many drugs have you done today?

[Bridge]
But I won't fuss
I'll let you pass
No, I won't fuss
I'll let you pass

[Outro]
'Cause it's only white wine in a Wetherspoons
Fine dining with cheap perfume
DLR closed due to workers' strikes
God knows how I'll get home tonight

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
I lost the passion that comes with living
Since I started university
I took a geography course to learn the datelines
And maybe use a sextant
But now I just press facsimiles

[Verse 2]
And you're exactly who you wanted to be
That's what you said
'Cause you wanna watch TV and sleep all day and lay in bed but
You're forgetting that I've got to go to work and eat my food
And pay my rent and reproduce and feed those kids
And maybe use a sextant

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't miss you
I miss the thought of what we were

[Chorus]
This is the part where I shut up and let you infest my brain
Wrap your arms around my cortex, dig you in and let you drain
You'll never get rid of me, oh I'm like a fucking disease
I'll make a home in your gut
'Cause it's somewhere warm to sleep

[Verse 3]
What was your thought when you realised
You'll never feel naive love again?
Was it pain or was it sickness?
Were you proud of who you'd been?
The shyness waiting for his phone calls
Replaced by apathy 'n' dating apps
You held his hands, it felt like flying
Now he's just another man

[Verse 4]
You'd rather he was inside than beside you
But he's talking marriage and a future
He's picking a lock he doesn't go into
Less knife in a wound, he's a suture

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't miss you
I miss the thought of what we were

[Chorus]
This is the part where I shut up and let you infest my brain
But it's okay, it's a strategy to ensure I remain
You'll never get rid of me, well I'm like a fucking disease
I'll make a home in your gut
'Cause it's somewhere warm to sleep

[Bridge]
It's okay
It's okay

[Outro]
Eat my rent and eat my food
And eat my dues and eat those kids
And maybe use a sextant

Lyrics:
Got back from a bad time when I said I wasn't going back
It's about everyday that I say I won't do that again
Tried to find a trash bin, for my stash but it's just so hard to find
Takes my cash takes my time but it can't swallow what left I have in life

(Chorus)
Well here and there I slip up
Like I'm walking out on ice
But I find ways around it
Can't go on my entire life
Got to find some solution
For what calls me day and night
Because I can't live for my chains time to find a timely grave for my vice

Makes my mama so sad
"When you gonna clean up your act"
Makes my papa so mad
"How hard can it be to stay on track"

(Chorus)
Well here and there I slip up
Like I'm walking out on ice
But I find ways around it
Can't go on my entire life
Got to find some solution
For what calls me day and night
Because I can't live for my chains time to find a timely grave for my vice

Lyrics:

About as Compatible as a bridge and a bomb
What I just can do nothing right and you just can do no wrong?
Color me shocked when we start to fight again
It's the everyday game we have yet to win
Every word every move just makes me rage, I know it's not fair but I just can't contain it

Every fucking thing you do annoys the hell out of me
Quit being so damn happy and be sad, like I want you to be

Why do you do that the way that you do that, is it just to bother me?
Is your tone on overload or is that just the way you actually speak?
I'm waiting for the day where you or I just snap
And if you don't beat me to it I'm worried that
I'm going to do something I regret but when I think of myself doing it it's as easy as taking a breath

Every fucking thing you do annoys the hell out of me
Quit being so damn happy and be sad like I want you to be

BITCH

Why don't you go choke and die

You're just a 
BITCH

Fuck you and all your friends
You're just a

BITCH
