about
I wrote Plasterboard about the first relationship that truly inspired me. I met someone who’s combination of personality, outlook and drive I had never come across before, who made me feel calm and at ease with the unpredictability of life and fierce about achieving my dreams. Unfortunately we were one of those unpredictable things, and distance prevented us from reaching a place where we could feel strongly enough to commit, and one of us sacrifice our personal visions to be closer to the other. So, with all its shiny newness and promising horizons, we had to end it before it really had a chance to grow. It wasn’t until a while afterwards that I could really look back and reflect on the impact this crossing of paths had had on me, and so ’Plasterboard’ was born.
lyrics
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
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
