is there something for me? 02:39
lyrics
buy track
Maybe it’s time I try to get back behind But if I try I’m gonna fall down the line There were times when I would put up a fight And there were times when I believed it was alright And that there’s something for me And that there’s something for me Oh I just want to believe That there’s something for Every now and then I fall into daze And regaining conciseness comes in waves Forget the times that I would put up a fight Forget the time that I believed it was alright Alright And is there something for me? Is there something for me? Oh I just want to believe That there’s something for me Is there something for me? Is there something for me? Oh i’m just tryna to believe That there is something for me

you won't know where you stand 01:57
lyrics

You won’t know where you stand Until you tell all your friends And it’s all gonna change But then it fades When you land again And once you walk through the door You’ll never leave Until you’re sure And I, I’m not sure And I know that I’m not good At keeping up conversations So another friend is leaving It hurts me but I’m tired of faking And once you walk through the door You’ll never leave Until you’re sure And I, I’m still not sure

tell me everything you fear 03:09
lyrics
buy track
When you wake up Do you feel your head is spinning? And at night when you lay down Do you feel like you’re at rest? But you go on, go on, go on Is this the life you wanna live? Just come on tell me, tell me What do you want from all of this? Is it love? Or is that something you’ve got? Is it love? So tell me everything you fear I’ll tell you that it’s alright Tell you that it’s just fine Then one morning You will realise you’re floating So you move to the city For someone you don’t know So go on, go on, go on But is this the life you wanna live? Just come on, tell me, tell me What do you really want from this? Is it love? Or is that something you lost? Is it love? So tell me everything you fear I’ll tell you that it’s alright Tell you that it’s just fine And in some time You’ll be living your own life You will realise it’s alright I promise you’ll be just fine

charlie 03:04
lyrics
buy track
Here I return again to my old place by the sea See a stranger's curtains hang By a sign that says "welcome home" Victoria must've moved on Craig lost his home of 24 years Charlie the cat has been replaced I guess that nothing ever lasts Saw saw Leith play to a crowd Everyone was quiet now God I really need to change Turns out my dreams don't fade with age Try to get back to a place Of writing songs to change my fate Pick a name to match my state Stop living life in a given shape Forever Trying to keep it in a jar Drinking water at the bar Making sure that it lasts Forever I left grandmas house in march Thought I need to grow up fast Thought that London would be mine Now it sends a shiver through my spine Guess i'm not a city girl But the country's way too boring still I hope that I will ever find A place and people I call mine And maybe growing up Is seeing grandma stop to walk It's learning people rarely change And wishing places stayed the same When I don't recognise a store Or the new name tag by the door I don't belong here anymore I guess nothing ever lasts Forever Trying to keep it in a jar Drinking water at the bar Making sure that it lasts Forever And I'll stick it in a book If I dare to I will look And I'll make it feel like Forever

Swallow me whole I don’t know where to go I just wanna know If you’ll stick around or go home ‘Cause I wanna build my Life around you And you can swallow me whole But please don’t go Take all my time Oh I don’t mind If it feels right And you’re out of time Just stay in mine I promise it’s fine ‘Cause I wanna build my Life around you And you can swallow me whole But please don’t go

lay down 03:10
lyrics
buy track
It’s 83 degrees Won’t you lay down next to me? Lightning as far as I can see Hope it swallows me wholly And lay down Lay down On my own And lay down Lay down On my own You drive down 35 Into the blue night I’m in a different world Living freely But living lonely And lay down Lay down On my own And lay down Lay down On my own The trees are shaking But I’m fearless Sleepless I used to be afraid But now I’m empty lonely And lay down Lay down On my own And lay down Lay down On my own
