Written/Prod. Sophie St. James

Too late is the time
that’s always daunting over me
no matter how far i stray 
I’ll keep my heart on my sleeve 

forever grasping at small fragments
of what’s barely gleaming
Clinging onto a sense of hope
while harboring the thoughts that it won’t 

it’s always the ones you feel the most for you can’t have 
out of reach or not enough 
either way the story is always sad 

it’s always the ones you can’t have 
the one who strikes the match
and leaves the flames burning in my bed?
And so when i sleep tonight, i’ll dream of you 

Like i always do 
And i feel myself let it fade away
But cool air, crisp nostalgia makes it
hard to forget your name 

//

In due time i’ll find a lover
But this game is only watch or be watched
Over pouring onto the one side
the side of my heart that is now gone

afterburn

I am struggling to breathe
locked my heart and hid the key
it was yours to keep
Now i’m wasted on the haunted memories 

What is so hard about me?
Why was it so hard to see the truth? 
How did i beg for you on my knees?
I believe it but I dont want it to be true

Im opening my eyes wide to see 
strange and foreign thoughts casting
curses, coursing through my body 
It’s Why i begged on my knees

Begged on my Knees

So So Slow

Written/Prod. Sophie St. James
Daytime shadows overcast 
The Darkness in my chest 
If i’m too much for you
Then put it to rest  

if i’m too much for you 
then put it to rest

I’m thinking of august,
the sun against my skin
doesn’t burn more 
than the stinging in my eyes

i knew i needed to swim
but sometimes 
love holds onto you tight,
makes you uncomfortably high

If i’m too much for you
Then put it to rest

The knife has eased out of my back
all the times i was bleeding 
it dig deeper in my skin
it was red and i was black,

colors can change with time 
i wish i wasn’t there to see yours create the divide

Knife

Why don’t u Take my hand 
Why don’t we drive slow 
Maybe we can catch the sunset
It doesn’t set on our coast 

I drive until my tank is empty 
I’m in control i take over the city 
But the only reason i’m bleeding
Is cuz i still hear u breathing

i think i lost my head in the city
I’m sober but i think i’m tripping 
I think i need a friend to hear me
What’s the use if i’m burned severely 


Why don’t we find some sand
Why don’t we find the coast 
Four hundred miles on the road
Maybe it’ll give us a chance to let go 

i drive until my tank is empty 
In control until you tempt me 
Now the only reason i’m breathing 
Is because i’ve stopped the bleeding

oceans (demo)

take me to the place where you left me
take me to where i stood
thinking of all those things 
that you did with her

I’m flying away

and i can’t even think about it now
why would i
but sometimes these feelings catch the ground and i just cry

Oh I’m flying away

take me to the place where you left me
take me to where i stood
thinking of all those things 
that you did with her

and i can’t even think about it now
why would i?
but sometimes these feelings catch the ground and i just cry, yeah i just cry

flying away

Written/produced Sophie St. James

Everywhere i go
everybody’s watching
losing control
and everybody’s talking

making bad decisions 
cause who’s gonna stop me
can’t keep it together 
You can catch me crying 

i’m way in over my head 
I said i’m way in over my head 
I’m not gonna drown 
I’m not gonna drown 

now i’m alone
On the street i’m pacing 
Breathe a fever in 
My body is fighting 

Peeling back the lies
I’m Running from talking 
circles in my mind 
Swirling through these feelings 

i’m way in over my head 
I said i’m way in over my head 
I’m not gonna drown 
No, I’m not gonna drown 

No i’m not gonna drown
No no no

Not Gonna Drown

not missin u - demo

Just Between you and i
I’m locked and loaded 
Jealously’s creeping in
and I’m Fully folding 

And i know i shouldn’t feel this way
Rocks in my brain, skipping down the drain
But you’ve taken what i had, and i say
I don’t need you, and you’re dead to my name 

So break my, take my heart
Hang it out to dry 
We’re moving backwards here 
Tangled up in time 
I wish that you could see,
I don’t want to fight 
So break my, take my heart 
While i stand by 

And i think it’s funny now 
How i tried and i tried and i tried
Yeah i think it’s funny how 
You’re on the stage i just walked with so much pride 

And i know i shouldn’t feel this way
Rocks in my face, causing me to shake 
But you’ve taken what i had, and i say
I don’t need you, and you’re dead to my name 

So break my, take my heart
Hang it out to dry 
We’re moving backwards here 
Tangled up in time 
I wish that you could see,
I don’t want to fight 
So break my, take my heart 
Just like junior high

And i’ll be the wise guy
While i stand by

Break My Take My heart

Yeah i can barely sleep
thinking bout it, all the things you do to me
I’m on the edge of my seat
Yeah i’ve got everything i need right here

No, i’m not missing you and all those tears
And yes i’m done thinking of those years 

No i’m not missing you at all 
No i’m not missing you at all 

And i can barely think 
Trying to catch that memory, but it’s all fading into me
And i’ve decided that i can’t speak 
Until the deed is done, and i have you sitting right next to me

Oh I’m feeling i’m in too deep 
Cutting all my ties, unintentional curiosity 
I know i have a tendency to leap 
Just keep your head up and that should
be the policy  

No, i’m not missing you and all those tears
And yes i’m done thinking of those years 

No i’m not missing you at all 
No i’m not missing you at all 

Yeah you should really watch your back
Cause i’m fire lately, look where i’m standing 
The memories always fade 
but baby they stick and they linger 

No, i’m not missing you and all those tears
And yes i’m done thinking of those years 

No i’m not missing you at all 
No i’m not missing you at all

Not Missin U - Demo

i’m a fan of the city 
i’m a fan of the city when you’re with me
So don’t leave baby 
i’ll always follow you baby 

Not a fan of You lately 
Got me ripping out my hair and going crazy 
But that’s just the world baby
start listening to what they’re saying 

Take your time, don’t look down 
Think what you want, but you can’t figure out 
Why I was high in the sky, brought to the ground 
The words of other people sounding like, 

Oh, Oh,  Oh ohx2 
they sound like 

Nauseous in my mouth lately 
Oh baby baby why’d you have to take it there
I’m always there and you bet i fucking stare
Can’t turn away because i know of your affairs

ALT// you just don’t get it baby 
I’m slipping on your dirty laundry
drawing a circle around me
Hope you can’t get inside, don’t find me

Take your time, don’t look down 
Think what you want, but you can’t figure out 
Why I was high in the sky, brought to the ground 
Closing my eyes so i won’t see her around 

Take your time, look up and around
Oh I’ve never felt it break like this
I was high in the sky, brought back down
The words of other people sounding like, 

Oh, Oh,  Oh ohx2 
they sound like 

yeah i’ve been breaking lately it’s pretty clear to see 
yeah i’ve been breaking baby and it’s killing me

It Sounds Like a Demo
