what I have to say
02:28

sometimes I feel
like I should not
open my mouth
who cares
what I have to say
what if I speak
and you don't understand
what I have to say
you are louder
you are prouder
you articulate
I'll walk away
from what I have to say

Walk Alone

It's your fault
What you did to me
And all the shit that happened after that
In the aftermath
Manipulated, my legs were coiled on the ropes that we swung on as kids
I couldn't break free
So, I lied to hide the twisted truth
I attacked to defend my youth
(Walk alone through a pitch black year)
I was nineteen before I found my feet
(Walk alone to find your feet)
I walked alone
I lost two best friends that night
Such a storm of terrible decisions
Pulled the rug from under my heart
On a park bench swallowed by stars
The same song, 12 hours on repeat
Say what you need to say
But it would always have been too late
(Walk alone through a pitch black year)
I was nineteen before I found my feet
(Walk alone to find your feet)
I walked alone
(Walk alone through a pitch black year)
I was nineteen before I found my feet
(Walk alone to find your feet)
I walked alone
My body was your ammo
But our lips never touched
My body was your ammo
But our lips never touched
Would you believe it?
If I told you the truth?
You didn't know my strength
When you killed it.

In or Out

Shouting from the rooftops
Why won't you let me in?
Tell me over and over
You've never been happier
Slip away
You drift far from earth
Slip away
It's ok to not be ok
For clarity, do you hear anything I say?
To be a fly on the wall of your day to day
Are you in or out this conversation?
It seems you're in another dimension
It shouldn't be this hard to stay in touch
and I tell myself you must be so busy
Doing God knows what
It's so heavy
in the silence between
There's nothing wrong
Why can't we speak normally?
For clarity, you are not my therapist
Are you in or out this conversation?
It seems you're in another dimension
Can you be present, be here with me?
Can you be present, be here with me?
Can you be present, be here with me?
Can you be present, be here with me?
Can you be present, be here with me?
Can you be present, be here with me?
Be here with me
Are you in or out this conversation?
It seems you're in another dimension

Chrysalis

float away
in my chrysalis
I was born for metamorphosis
I'm wrapped up in somebody else's ideals
this is no way to exist
England wasn't filled with my fibres
there's nothing here
begging me to stay
as the rain falls harder
people sink lower
I want to see how far I can swim
breaking out
of my chrysalis
I'm so ready for metamorphosis
I'm wrapped up in somebody's else's shit
what a way to exist
one day I'm going to live
In a space in which I fill
turn a new page everyday
a book of conversations with which I want to engage
the voice I hear is not my tone
the words don't harmonise with my own

Here You Are

I saw your face
I could illustrate that smile from memory
I saw your eyes
With their kindness blind
I felt your warmth in my hands
I could’ve sworn you were fabricated
My imaginary friend
I could’ve sworn you were fabricated
A character I made up for my health
But here you are
Here you are
I heard your voice in a glass roofed dock
and stopped and stared for a while
Have I known you from some place before?
Another realm, another life cycle?
I could’ve sworn you were fabricated
My imaginary friend
I could’ve sworn you were fabricated
A character I made up for my health
But here you are
Here you are
You’re standing right in front of me
Saying everything I want to hear
I so badly want to believe in you
Sitting straight across from me
Saying everything I want to hear
I need to believe in you
‘Cause here you are
Here you are
Someone’s watching over me
Looking out for me beyond belief
Am I as lucky as one can be?
Making fantasies reality
Here you are
Here you are
Here you are
Here you are

Unfurl

|
I called you out
couldn't wait any longer
for you to grow up
I called you out
so sick of explaining
why you act the way you do
I told you to go
but when will I come back to me now?
I told you to go
when will I come back to me now
you put me down
had to seize the upperhand
and knock me back down to earth
we are broken
our time is done
I abandoned ship and I don't regret
I told you to go
but when will I come back to me now?
I told you to go
when will I come back to me now
how the tables have turned
when we're not talking
and my thoughts
they unfurl
and if I lose myself
in this dying light
I know
I will unfurl
I told you to go
when will I come back to me now
I told you to go
when will I come back to me now

Demon & I
04:20
|

|
Forgive me, Father
If it’s a sin
Valentine’s weekend
Commencing nun-mode
Slide, power off
Nowhere to go
No one to touch
No one to hold
I like a drop and tell me, what else have we got anymore?
Anymore
I restrain my body, retrain my mind
But your taste remains the same
I restrain my body, retrain my mind
We won’t apologise
My demon and I
In this city of vices
In which we choose to live
I could be sliding black ice
I could be falling on my face
But no, I keep myself warm
I keep my cheeks dry
I’m happy tonight
With my demon and I
I restrain my body, retrain my mind
But your taste remains the same
I restrain my body, retrain my mind
We won’t apologise
My demon and I
Feel your frequencies everywhere
You’re everywhere to me
How I’m infatuated with your memory
We won’t be meeting again
I feel your frequencies everywhere
You’re everywhere to me
I feel your frequencies everywhere
You’re everywhere
Abandon the daydream
We won’t be meeting again
I restrain my body, retrain my mind
But your taste remains the same
I restrain my body, retrain my mind
We won’t apologise
My demon and I
I restrain my body, retrain my mind
But your taste remains the same
I restrain my body, retrain my mind
We won’t apologise
My demon and I
