Whiskey 03:12
lyrics

Got a stash of Whiskey, in case Someone accidentally looks like you Who I wish I was For someone I wish I never knew I still write about you, I don’t even like you Giving you attention again But then it’s always been about you I don’t care, I don’t mind I’ll just write a song about you that you won’t hear But sometimes someone else has your eyes And the floor disappears Oh I just stare and I don’t mind I swear I never wanted to be with you You’re such a conceited friend I caught you every time you fell For me again I wouldn’t mind but why’d you make my knees so weak I could barely stand To lift you up and watch you walk away again I know I said I loved you once or twice But each time I was incredibly drunk Even if I did that ship has sailed, Failed smashed to bits and those bits have sunk I still write about you, why? I don’t even miss you, do I? Giving you headspace again what an idiot am I I don’t care, I don’t mind I’ll just write a song about you that you won’t hear But sometimes someone else has your eyes And the floor disappears Oh I just stare and I don’t mind I swear I never wanted to be with you You’re such a conceited friend I caught you every time you fell For me again I wouldn’t mind but why’d you make my knees so weak I could barely stand To lift you up and watch you walk away again I swear I just got confused Trying too hard to deserve you Each time you came crawling back For one more disappearing act And I’ll drink til I don’t care my dear I’m glad you don’t care enough to hear Sometimes someone else has your eyes and the floor disappears I swear I never loved you You’re such a conceited friend I caught you every time you fell For me again I wouldn’t mind but why’d you make my knees so weak I could barely stand I lifted you up and watched you walk away again And again Well never again

Enough 03:47
lyrics

Enough with the compromise You got me looking through your eyes Trying to see with some semblance of self But I can’t quite get it right Enough with the perfection It’s enough damage for life I’ve no strength, no dignity either But I’m doing alright I’ve waited Enough time, cut in line, rough-cut diamond in the ground I’m crawling But I know where I’m going, and I’m going now We are enough In the face of our failures We are enough On the stage of all our flaws We’re unlovable heathens Love us just for that reason So enough, cause I am enough No less no more Enough with the disrespect Enough I’m not yours It’s my right to decide how I live my life And who I live it for I’ve waited Enough time, cut in line, rough-cut diamond in the ground I’m crawling But I know where I’m going, and I’m going now We are enough In the face of our failures We are enough On the stage of all our flaws We’re unlovable heathens Love us just for that reason So enough, cause I am enough No less no more (It’s all lies it’s all lies It’s all lies it’s all lies, Oh) We are enough In the face of our failures We are enough On the stage of all our flaws We’re unlovable heathens Love us just for that reason So enough, Cause I am enough

Vultures 03:25
lyrics

Stop sneaking up on me again The eagle lifting up the wren If vultures mate for life there's hope for us The charnel house is still a house for love So am I wrong not to be someone that you could be proud of? And how do you know that there's any grace in love? I'm not a fighter, I'm a lover I'm not that tough, to fight off love Your eyes are brighter than any other But when push comes to shove Strength, I've got enough The smell of earth on our hands From digging deep into each others skin We dragged love down to the land To try and find the right way in We thought love could turn us from a crow into a dove But how do you know that there's any escape in love? I'm not a fighter, I'm a lover I'm not that tough, to fight off love Your eyes are brighter than any other But when push comes to shove Strength, I've got enough How dare I want more than how I chose to live my life Maybe if I bury it, I'll forget to want to find Oh, nevermind I'm not a fighter, I'm a lover So how the fuck do I fight off love I'm not a fighter, I'm a lover I'm not that tough, to fight off love Your eyes are brighter than any other But when push comes to shove Strength, strength, I've got enough But how do you know when you really deserve to be loved

Revenge 03:28
lyrics

You never grow up til You never grow up til you grow An armour Bite your tongue until It’s in pieces Don’t you know, there’s no such thing as closure Taking it back for us Cause we never had much luck You know I would love, for once To get it right I will live a better life And that is my revenge Am I a good person Even if everything I do Is out of spite? Desperate to do my best Just to prove that I’m a force you’ve never seen You couldn’t touch me if you tried Taking it back for me This hate that would burn cities I need it back, I need To get it right I will live a better life And that is my revenge I will live a better life than you And that is true revenge I’ve got to be better than, better than, better than, better than this Taking it back this time The space in my head is mine I know I will do just fine Without you there I will live a better life And that is my revenge I will live a better life than you And that is true revenge I’ve got to be better than, better than, better than, better than this And I will happily, spitefully, arrogantly exist Just to fuck you up

Home 03:25

The way back is red from my strong little feet I walk ahead to my little heartbeat It’s all only a long journey My only destination is back to me (Home, home) I’m going home I’m going home Back to the person I’ll be Who wants the best for me I’m going home, oh Anyone who dares to love me Will love a different person no-ones ever seen I still hear the demons, but they are not me I will find my way back to where I’ve always been (Home, home) I’m going home I’m going home Back to the person I’ll be Who wants the best for me I’m going home, oh Must I earn each footstep Before I’m allowed to take it? Can’t I walk into my future Without fear I’ll break it? I don’t wanna die like this Any step forward I will take it (Home, home) I’m going home I’m going home Back to the person I’ll be Who wants the best for me I’m going home, oh

Golden 03:21
lyrics

There was a golden moment when I let you in After all that time, I started to let my heart slip It wasn’t enough Never enough I’m sorry There was a golden light when you took my hand And we started to dance, even though neither of us could dance Cause it didn’t matter But it doesn’t matter Not anymore You needed love, so I gave you love What does it matter if it wasn’t enough? The memories will be golden The memories will be golden At least the memories will be golden The memories will stay golden You had a golden glow when you looked at me Like I was all you needed, like you’d found a way to be happy Well, as long as you find it Even without me That’s all I need We needed love, so we fell in love What does it matter if it wasn’t enough? The memories will be golden The memories will be golden At least the memories will be golden The memories will stay golden Before you I had nothing Now I’ve got nothing but gratitude I’m glad at least a little bit of my life Is memories of you The memories will be golden The memories will be golden At least the memories will be golden The memories will stay golden

Chiron 03:36
lyrics
buy track
Stopping our hearts Just to check that we’re still breathing Tearing old wounds apart Just to show that we’re still bleeding Chiron, breathe on Desperately stitching up As fast as we can heal Am I endlessly fucking up Or is that just how we feel Chiron, breathe on Cause everything that got you this far is all still there And nothing matters more than that you’re still here Chiron, we live on When there’s no-one left to fix But the pieces you’ve become And when the cracks widen Into a great divide I’ll see you on the other side We are an ocean of small stuff sweat Metres from the shore, fighting for breath Chiron, breath on Cause everything that got you this far is all still there And nothing matters more than that you’re still here Chiron, we live on When there’s no-one left to fix But the pieces you’ve become And when the cracks widen Into a great divide I’ll see you on the other side We power through Cause we’ve got to When life gets to you I’ve always got you Chiron, we live on When there’s no-one left to fix But the pieces you’ve become And when the cracks widen Into a great divide I’ll see you on the other side

Whispers 03:47
lyrics

We may never breaks our heads above the water But this weightless chaos feels alright, oh The salt fills our lungs like bricks & mortar The foundation we use to swim upright, oh I thought I’d learned to swim But I’d only learned to fight against the current Cause I’m strong enough to struggle But I’m not strong enough to rest Hey, hey, oh ocean come to me Take the whispers I never say And make them make me free Every time life holds me under for so long I don’t need to panic or fight, oh I know I have stronger lungs than anyone I’ll be alright if that’s alright with you I thought I’d learned to swim But I’d only learned to hide the undercurrents Cause I’m strong enough to sink But I’m not strong enough to speak Hey, hey, oh ocean come to me Take the whispers I never say And make them make me free We may never break our heads above the water White waves, white noise overwhelm you & me Crushed under weight of all the SOS bottles Strong enough to struggle, one day strong enough to be Hey, hey, oh ocean come to me (We may one day break our heads above the water) Take the whispers I never say (One day we may no longer have to fight) And make them make me free

Wanderlust 03:41
lyrics

Wanderlust A feeling I can best describe As intense dark violet light The closest I can get to home Is on a mountaintop at night My home thoughts, my home planets I haven’t found them yet I breathe in something more than me I breathe out normal human breath I’m just trying to find something beautiful All I am is wanderlust I’m jealous of the particles in me Free to leave & choose to come back I know I’ve always known my home I just don’t know the way back I’m just trying to find something beautiful All I am is wanderlust Little earthly cares Like atoms in the air Against a solar flare The stars leave me scared Because I’m not them, I’m not there Is anybody there I’m just trying to find something beautiful All I am is wanderlust
