I’m gonna miss you more
Than anyone before
Cos you’re the first to know me
You reached into my core
Like it was plasterboard
It’s gonna heal slowly
No one else got to know me like you do
You were in the room with me
Always to the nth degree
Always
Shame that the room never came to us
Only dipped my toes in you
Painting walls the same shade of blue
Building a home that we’d never see
I wanted to come home to you
Close miles between
Cos coming home to a phone is mean
Its a wonder I didn’t fall cos I
Shut my eyes and fill my lungs with air like a balloon
Where are you you’re not there to take off with me or bring me back down to Earth with your blue
Eyes
Saw you again and my brain fried
Felt the rubble creepin up for a landslide
Thought whatever we were was buried and gone but hey I was wrong
You showed me I could hold
Anything that life throws
And smile in the morning

Pink Noise
02:54
|
|||
Literally lost when I don’t sleep
I go to places inside my mind that I’ve never seen and I don’t recognise
Even the leaves on the trees are
Falling into the sky
Why
Tell me why am I here
How the hell do I leave
Cos the pink noise is too much for me
Go back to where silence is actually silent and it doesn’t scare me to breathe
Back to where talkings as easy as walking
& I can see further than 3 feet in front of me
Back to where silence is actually silent
1, made me forget that I’m good that I’m me that I deserve everything he didn’t give that I need
2, a year on from then, heartbreak delayed and I’m amazed we gave up on that
3, just threw me aside as soon as he lured me in
Go back to where silence is actually silent and it doesn’t scare me to breathe
Back to unwinding the knots in the cables and I actually being able...
Oooh
Back to where silence is actually silent
I can feel the floor start to shake
When I’ve been awake when I’ve been awake Im
on the brink and oh my the noise is 3 million shades of white to pink
I try to dance, oh I try to dance but lose my balance before I can blink oh
Tell me why am I here, how the hell do I leave
Cos the pink noise is too much for me.
Try to run from the place i involuntarily chase when the back of my mind faces forwards and I’m told I need someone else to make it ok.

Be Gentle (Demo)
03:05

The beauty
of waking up without a war inside your head
held by something more than just the sheets on your bed
"are you with me are you with me?" they said
"we’ve been rapping on the window for 3 days
come along be gentle see the light on your face
take a shower, feel it all wash away"
oooh be gentle today
oooh you’ve returned from a dangerous place
oooh be gentle today
be gentle today
be gentle today
the white walls you’ve been staring at for hours
are doing good to keep you safe
when your body felt an earthquake shatter holes in your faith
took a deep breath
wouldn’t let yourself break
in the morning when you feel the days offering
though it may not be what you needed it to bring
take it kindly shake it’s hand and begin
oooh be gentle today
ooh yesterday was a hard one to chase
So be gentle today
be gentle today
be gentle today

All That I Know (Demo)
03:24
|

Am I confused?
Or am I just sure that I don’t know
Am I gonna lose,
Or have I made this target up,
Out of thin air,
Each day I drift,
I search for more
Will it shift?
All that I know is that I’m ready to find you
But I can’t even find myself
All I can show is that I’m not really OK
So I stay behind
And wait for tomorrow night
oooh, tomorrow night
oh then I will be alright.
Told me you loved me so
Made sure you let me know
That I cut you deep and that cut me deep (too)
Then only 2 weeks on
You’re pouring coffee for
another heart,
I can’t believe,
You ever wanted me for me
All that I know is that I’m ready to find you
But I can’t even find myself
All I can show is that I’m not really OK
So I stay behind
All that I know is I’d be ready to catch you,
Like droplets above my head
I’ll let you know that no matter how I feel
Your dark can be bright
and we’ll wait for tomorrow night
oooh tomorrow night,
Oh then we will be alright.
Clocks turn too fast
No I’ll never be ready
Take 3 deep breaths
Who said that I cant take time
Take as long as I need
I’ll be fine
When the world stops breathing down my neck
Cast away we’ll be each other’s wreck
