SEA SCOTCH
VERSE 1
The kids they like their mean jokes
and if I’m not apart I’ve got no hope
so I’m lying on my daddies old school yacht
with my fake tan on and no sunblock
catching fish and drinking scotch
we’re catching fish and drinking scotch
soaking up the summer sun, everyone
PRE CHORUS
We always fall into each others arms
creatures of habit falling back in love
in the heat of the day our cruelty reins
I love you, I loath you
together so untamed
CHORUS
Come and be wild with me
wild lovers swimming in the sea
in paradise I’ll give you everything you need
we’re the chosen ones and we feel so free x2
VERSE 2
The kids have all got heat stroke
yeah we’re tickled pink and far from home
our heavy liquored drinks are clawing out our guts
a blurry battle lies ahead for us
a nightmare now let me wake up
a nightmare now let me wake up
I’ll keep my grip you’re all I’ve got, all I've got
PRE CHORUS
We always fall into each others arms
creatures of habit falling back in love
in the heat of the day our cruelty reins
I love you, I loath you
together so untamed
CHORUS
Come and be wild with me
wild lovers swimming in the sea
in paradise I’ll give you everything you need
we’re the chosen ones and we feel so free x2

STONE COLD
VERSE 1
‘He’s only temporary,' they said,
‘The promises he made can’t be kept’,
but the moment you looked into my eyes
I couldn’t turn my back on that smile;
fallen for your power and charms,
intoxicated but it ain’t love.
Come on Boy
now we’ve both had enough.
PRE CHORUS
I’ll give you a heads up
'cause you left me in the dark,
I have no intention
of giving you back my heart.
You broke me with your hard words,
you left me feeling numb;
a crazy girl I have become .
I'd do anything for you, Boy,
back in the day;
but times have changed
and now we’re through.
CHORUS
Stone cold love, way too young to be fighting.
Got lost in the thunder, caught in the lightning.
Stone cold love, way too young to be fighting.
Just lie with the darkness, see what the night brings.
VERSE 2
‘You’re like a little flower,' he said,
‘you’re delicate and need lots of care.'
I’ve been knocked down and rose from my falls
so damn to hell with you when you call.
Knowing in my soul I’m enough
and trying to change to please won’t bring love,
Yeah, this time round I’m giving you up.
PRE CHORUS
I’ll give you a heads up
'cause you left me in the dark.
I have no intention
of giving you back my heart.
You broke me with your hard words,
you left me feeling numb;
a crazy girl I have become.
I’d do anything for you, Boy,
back in the day
but times have changed
and now we’re through
CHORUS
Stone cold love, way too young to be fighting.
Got lost in the thunder, caught in the lightning.
Stone cold love, way too young to be fighting.
Just lie with the darkness, see what the night brings.
x2
OUTRO
And now that I know there’s no time
to be afraid, don’t ever change,
close your eyes and live forever.

Panther
I watch him as he licks his lips
Slender and fit
Keeps out the bitter cold
Golden dawn
Risen once more
When he invites me
And I wonder, can I keep up with the panther?
I better run, I better run
I better know how to hide
I better know how to fight
Better keep up with the panther tonight
More beasts are lining up to race
Out of their caves
Got to think fast to play their game
My body’s sore
I’m wanting more
When he invites me
To see what he sees
To move fast and free
Explore the kingdom with me
Can I keep up as he leads?
And I wonder, can I keep up with the panther?
I better run, I better run
I better know how to hide
I better know how to fight
Better keep up with the panther tonight
No wind or rain to cool my sweat
It’s sliding on down my neck
I’ll charge on forth, I’ll run like heck
I better run, I better run
I better know how to hide
I better know how to fight
Better keep up with the panther tonight

Lights Are Low
I wanna hold you
Take that heavy load off your shoulders
I wanna make it right for you now
But I haven’t got the answers
But I haven’t got…
Kiss me when the lights are low
I want your sweet tender lips against my own
And don’t take your time cos we’ve only now
I’m so scared of what we’ll lose when it’s going so well
I’ll be there for you cos I…
Take that heavy load off your shoulders
I wanna make it right for you now
But I haven’t got the answers
But I haven’t got the…
You say, one day we’ll meet again
Don’t break or we won’t ever mend
You say, one day we’ll meet again
When you pull me down
Don’t let go of me
Kiss me when the lights are low
I want your sweet tender lips against my own
And don’t take your time cos we’ve only now
I’m so scared of what we’ll lose when it’s going some where
I wanna...
Kiss me when the lights are low
Take that heavy load off
I want your sweet tender lips against my own
I wanna make it right for you
And don’t take your time cos we’ve only now
I wanna hold you
I’m so scared of what we’ll lose when it’s going so well

Bitter
There’s something that haunts me in the dark
When I lie still
Happens to me every time
There’s something that holds and grips me tight
Another long night
I can’t sleep right
My pulse is racing, racing
I can feel it racing
My mind is wired
I need to move my body tonight
I'm killing idle time
Constantly relying on a hit like morphine
It tastes bitter, too much of what you know
Bitter, spit it out when you’re home alone
Bite your lip and pull blood with teeth
Burning up and blacking out from the heat
And my troubles twisting my legs and feet
Troubles, I'm clinging onto the sheets
Ignorance was once my bliss
Now I'm a fool tangled up in this mess
Head against the wall, oh I’ve gone too far
No turning back now
I’m turning back now
Honestly, I thought I’d be fine
I drink in lulls and try and tell no lies
I burn and crash out
Another cry for help
My pulse is racing, racing
I can feel it racing
My mind is wired
I need to move my body tonight
I'm killing idle time
Constantly relying on a hit like morphine
It tastes bitter, too much of what you know
Bitter, spit it out when you’re home alone
Bite your lip and pull blood with teeth
Burning up and blacking out from the heat
And my troubles twisting my legs and feet
Troubles, I'm clinging onto the sheets
Ignorance was once my bliss
Now I'm a fool tangled up in this mess
Trying to keep my calm
In a world of chaos
And I don’t know who to trust
It tastes bitter, too much of what you know
Bitter, spit it out when you’re home alone
Bite your lip and pull blood with teeth
Burning up and blacking out from the heat
And my troubles twisting my legs and feet
Troubles, I'm clinging onto the sheets
Ignorance was once my bliss
Now I'm a fool tangled up in this mess

Golden Lights

we ride the bus late at night
lonely drivers craving company
talk through our fears & fight the years of growing old
(no comfort at all)
tonight is better then too late
bite the bullet swallow bitter after-taste
dreaming of treasures our ancestors never foresaw we’d own
these Golden Lights
dance me round the floor
my eyes mislead
deceive me once more
And I observe that everything I’ve learnt seems to disappear
when I’m trapped by fear
the strong ones rule this hunting ground
weaker ones forgotten, slowly fading out
but in our weakness there is strength
depends how you turn it round
(no comfort to small)
unfold the green and count your needs
fashions fade & sink beneath forgotten seas
Romanticise about your lives but keep home and heart in mind
these Golden Lights
dance me round the floor
my eyes mislead
deceive me once more
And I observe that everything I’ve learnt seems to disappear
when I’m trapped by fear
golden gold
the floor is covered in gold
it captures my body when I fall
but offers no comfort at all
