Call out from the eye of this storm
Your former self can't save you once you're gone
Would I speak a lie If I said I'd turn back time
To a life gone by, or a state where love resided
Once alive
Fall down to my knees, I beg you, please
I was better then, but this room won't let me leave
I'm not who I'm supposed to be
My back against the door
My thoughts are bleeding out in front of me
I'm stubborn, I'm cracking, I'm sick of life imagined but
I'd rather be unhappy than pretend it never happened
What would you say
If I loved you all the same?
A hold on my brain
Help me press restart
I know this isn't ideal for you
But I won't hold my tongue

Can't Fight The Weather

I walk a mile with her hand in my pocket
A stone held in my shoe
It didn't take long for me to catch on
It was a dream I was walking through
The words escape me, been on hold lately
Strings slowly gather dust
It didn't take long for me to catch on
Someone else said enough
I can't fight the weather
With your hand in my pocket
I'll always come back to you
Music and lyrics, hate that I fear it
Peripheral noise imbued
With murmurs of sin as the tide rushes in
And the heat of the sun does burn
A change of the wind as your heart's covering
I'll say something asinine
They all agree this will never be bliss
I'll write their lines into mine
I can't fight the weather
With your hand in my pocket
I'll find my way back to you
Take what you're given
I'm so sick of living
I always come back to you
Pick me up where I've been going wrong
Pick me up where I've been going wrong
Break me to pieces
Tell me you need me
Read in between this

Easy Rider

Been running for too long now to admit that I’m lost
My wheels have all torn open, my tracks are in the dust
Take a look at my sidecar, it’s empty
Take a look at my sidecar, it’s empty seat
It’s just me down this long and dusty road
You take the world as it comes
I’m cruising at 21
The devil’s in the details, darling
Heed your every word
It’s you and me against the world
Too hoodies and a lighter
My easy rider
Well, I guess I was slow
Couldn’t keep up with your know-how
With your love, all for my sense of sensibility
And selfish qualities that left me stranded on the floor
So, take a look at my sidecar, it’s empty
Take a look at my sidecar, It’s empty now
My easy rider

Oh, My Love!
02:43
|

Winter winds whisper to me
Lost in the air, all those memories that render me weak
It’s just a bad game of hide and seek
Feel like I’ve been here before
I like to sit alone but I don’t want to be lonely
I’ve never felt so sure
Oh, my love
I hold it in
Oh, my love
I hold it in
Your dimpled cheeks smile vindictively
You’re my desire, speak sweetly as you put out the fire
You’re such a beautiful liar
My left arm feels numb
Somebody call for a doctor or a loaded gun
It ricochets off my callous heart
I watch him bleed from afar
Oh lord, I watch him bleed from afar
Oh, my love
I hold you in
Oh, my love
I hold you in
Broken smile
Rest my head for a while
Enact my plan
The bigger man
As I tear apart
As I tear apart
No, we won’t start again
And oh, my love
I hold you in

If love is nothing but buzzing upside my head
There's no reason to be happy
I'm better off being dead
A long way to the ground
I'm kind of embarrassed
Sat on a rooftop here in Paris
Trying not to make a sound
The smiles and hands in front of us
But no love left so give me something
Give me something to rely on
I won't say goodnight until you're out of my mind
I won't say goodnight until you're gone
There's no use in playing dead, boy
There’s no use in being six feet under
It's all in your head, boy
You'll be okay, you'll be okay
But I don't want to be here
No, I don't want to be here
If love is nothing but buzzing upside my head
There's no reason to be happy
I'm spending my day in bed
The cool side of my pillow is my only friend
Staring at the ceiling
Waiting for the end (Ugh!)
I don't mean to scare you
Just being over dramatic
Your texts are monosyllabic
Traumatic thoughts in my attic
I don't have the best voice but I can hold a tune
I'm a twat but this music helps with getting over you
The smiles and hands in front of us
But no love left so give me something
Give me something to rely on
I won't say goodnight until you're out of my mind
I won't say goodnight until you're gone
There's no use lying in bed, boy
There’s no use in being six feet under
It's all in your head, boy
You'll be okay, you'll be okay
But I don't want to be here
No, I don't want to be here
I'd rather be anywhere but here

Give me a moment
To catch my breath
And regain my dignity
You're as sweet as can be
The taste of your lips
As sweet as can be
Hold me close
Whisper in my ear
Everything that you
Think that I would want to hear
Hold me closer, dear
Hold me closer, dear
Hold me close
And I would never, ever leave again
'Cause I'd be living in my own personal heaven
My mind would wonder
If this was all a dream
The taste of your lips
As sweet as can be
You pull me in
Water dripping
To touch your skin
Feel the fire you're exhaling
Hold me close
Whisper in my ear
Everything that you
Think that I would want to hear
Hold me closer, dear
Hold me closer, dear
Hold me close
Soap in your eyes
Smoke in your lungs

The Flood

Your bread, your wine
Can easily define you
Your gait, your smile
The most heavenly sight for a while
Open your eyes, take my disguise
No believing in god, no believing in her either
Watch my eyes open at the sight of love
Watch that door open, washed out by the flood
My sanctuary, her arms are scary love
My sanctuary
Feeling better, feeling fine
Preacher said it was all in my mind
He clapped his hands and he reached for the sky
“The Father says you’re a melancholy guy”
I said “Of course I am, do you see that girl?
The one with the ocean blue eyes and the Devil’s curls
She drowns me every day and makes sure my lips bleed
But I love it, she consumes me”
Watch my eyes open at the sight of love
Watch that door open, washed out by the flood
My sanctuary, her arms are scary love
My sanctuary, I am not a man of god
The water washed me out
The door is open now
Our secrets pouring out
I smile as I drown
No God to help me now
I live a life of doubt
She wears a holy crown
I choose to bow down

Honey Whiskey

I see her eyes wander
Over to her man
I'm just caught in the middle of it
One drink in each hand
My head hurts, my heart hurts
Its a conditional plea
With the music swinging
Top of my lungs, singing
A song that reminds me of her
I missed the feeling, how it felt, and all the memories
I'm moving on and other features are attracting me
But it's purely skin and mine is wearing thin
Why did I come to this? To mix with socialists?
The part of party personas that I would happily miss
"Just take a drag to numb the taste
Forget the fact she got away from you
It's the closest thing to turning back time", I'm sorry
I'd rather dry my eyes outside blasting out The '75
You gotta find what makes you happy
Even if it's an overdose of caffeine
That's mixed with a mix of spirits and gins
"Hey babe, we're taking shots in the kitchen"
All my friends have gone to collide
With a girl or a guy, whoever caught their eye
Oh is it me? I'm only sat on your bed
Minding my own business
Trying not to throw up on your throw rug
But her hand is on my leg
Not only are we just friends
Here comes her boyfriend who has to intervene again
Drink on my lips, honey whiskey kiss
I insist, don't resist as its kicking in, intoxicated
Can't resist the clique of the girls
With the racket on their fingertips
I better go before I make a scene
Am I too bruised for you to come back home with me?

Heaven Made Me This Way
03:40

I tried my best
Clearing all this off my chest
Sick of holding in my breath
For a beating heart
I confess I could use a love like this
Now you know you passed the test
Nothing compares
I won't fall in love
Not with you, not with you
I won't fall in love
Not with you, not with you
I've got no excuse for my appearance here
I lived through paradise, why should I bother here?
Don't ask the question if I haven't learnt the lesson
I don't even understand
Now, the only other question is:
Are you in love with this?
I'd hate to be falling down
I won't fall in love
Not with you, not with you
I won't fall in love
Not with you, not with you
I'd hate to be falling down
Well I fell back down to Earth
Life, love, death, rebirth
I'm a little bit lost but that's okay
Longing for heaven made me this way

I walk a thousand miles to wind up at your door
All is clear that I'm not welcome anymore
Tie my hands behind my head
Hang me out to dry
If you still love me then lie
I don't know right from wrong
Been waiting for so long
Spare me the details
I won't walk out alive
Spare me the details
I'm doing fine
Spare me the lies
Spare me the heartache
There's nothing you can say
Spare me the lies
Spare me the heartache
I'm doing fine
Does he treat you better
Than I ever could?
I'll keep my distance
This time for good, because
I don't know right from wrong
Been waiting for so long
Spare me the details
I won't walk out alive
Spare me the details
I'm doing fine
Spare me the lies
Spare me the heartache
There's nothing you can say
Spare me the lies
Spare me the heartache
I'm doing fine
Who wants to be in love anyway?
All these songs say I do
Spare me the details
I won't walk out alive
Spare me the details
I'm doing fine
Sorry for the lies
For the heartache
Or anything I ever said
But you know
I'd break my back
To see you again
