Knockout Girl

I've been close to death,
Laying' off my head
and talking to myself
about a love we shared
Girl, forever I'll keep you close
I'll briefly hold you through my thoughts
I can picture you and me just evading time
Hurt me
I could do with
being brought to life
Love to me, a dagger.
While you boast that it's a high
Firstly I was thinking I might
Simplify, how you feel for me
So it's just as well I try
You're my knockout, Girl.
and I'll be your Knockout Guy
Just Don't Let Me Die- (let me die)
I'll remind you of broken promises
when I made the most, of
An early break...
On the brink for sure
Not so brief my pain
Hurt me, girl, you did
and I'd wished you'd stayed
Since I saw you then I
Had checked my head
I could not put up with
your crazy friends ...
Hurt me
I could do with
being brought to life
Love to me, a dagger.
While you boast that it's a high
Firstly I was thinking I might
Simplify, how you feel for me
So it's just as well I try
You're my knockout, Girl.
and I'll be your Knockout Guy
Just Don't Let Me Die- (let me die)
Counting down from ten
We're back on again
I'll be, on your case
like a modern trend
We can look at what,
You and I have found,
and just rest assured that
We're safe and sound
Hurt me
I could do with
being brought to life
Love to me, a dagger.
While you boast that it's a high
Firstly I was thinking I might
Simplify, how you feel for me
So it's just as well I try
You're my knockout, Girl.
and I'll be your Knockout Guy
Just Don't Let Me Die- (let me die)

What If I Was
03:47
|
|
||
What if I was caught in a rip
would you swim out to save me
before I had my last bad thing to drink.
What if I was caught in a plane that had no wings
would you come up to meet me in mid-air
and put them back on again no---
A foreign apparition
Much like my love for you girl
Please won't you understand
You and me with more than need be
Doing good when all is bad
I won't be leaving
and I won't ask
What if I was more than lovely
or complicate any
Question that you have
What if I was buried alive
Would you look through the shadows
Or leave me to die
What if I was needing you here
Would you take that for joking
or find me again
A foreign apparition
Much like my love for you girl
Please won't you understand
You and me with more than need be
Doing good when all is bad
I won't be leaving
and I won't ask
What if I was more than lovely
or complicate any
Question that you have
(chorus repeats)

Otherside Of Everything
06:17
|
|

Some days I feel like a king
with open eyes, with open eyes.
but then there are days
When I feel like I'm hypnotised
This world so mesmorotic
it gives me bad vibes, bad vibes.
I'm trapped in a sphere
and there's nowhere
nowhere left to hide.
easily I see through
all the walls that are
blocking me
and easily I see
past all the fears
that are blinding me
and on the
otherside of everything
I feel intricacy weaving
through my mind
like it just always
should have been
and on the
otherside of everything
I find this sense of freedom
is the only chance I'll have to see.
Somedays I get up
and I wonder why
there's a reason for living
and I feel unsatisfied
and somedays I won't even
open my eyes
cause I feel like there's
nothing for me in this life
but it's temporary
easily I see through
all the walls that are
blocking me
and easily I see
past all the fears
that are blinding me
and on the
otherside of everything
we find intricacy weaving
through our minds
like it just always
should have been
and on the
otherside of everything
we've found this sense of freedom
is the only chance we'll have to see.
You tuck me
into bed
right or wrong
I could barely
believe I said
last night
I lost my head
less is more
Till you bottle
the last laugh
free to say
I wanna own
your frustration
bury it and break it
In my defence
I'm beneath myself again
when all I hear is
separate
I didn't mean hell
what I said
I know it's mean
just don't forget
take all my love astray
every which way it's
clear I thrive on
retribution
after we've faced
the fear of getting closer
I'll hold the thought
you crush in fear
with insight into
the depth of true despair
show me you're here
on the
otherside of everything
we find intricacy weaving
through our minds
like it just always
should have been
and on the
otherside of everything
we've found this sense of freedom
is the only chance we'll have to see.

You've Got It
04:04
|
|

It seems like yesterday was a mile away
I don’t know why I'm still in the shade
Still got my sights on you and
Everything I do it was meant for two
You've got it you've got it
You've got it going on
You've got it you've got it
you've got it going on
You're taking your step
That's the opposite direction
Girl very hard from me
To rid you of affection
in nearing the end
We've laid ways to sadden
It's 'you're all alone'
Or I'm all alone
You've got it
You've got it
You've got it going on
You've got it
Still got me going strong
My distorted view, I'm digging you
Could you care much more;
I'll stay true
I was in a state of sadness
Left without your greatness
Holding on to the thought that
You'd return to me
When the light turned to darkness
I realized how I was
holding on to something that
was never meant to be
You've got it you've got it
You've got it going on
You've got me you've got me
You've got me going strong
You've got it you've got it
You've got it it's for sure
You've got it and it's got you
Shade and glow
My distorted view I'm digging you
Could you care much more
I'll stay true
You've got it you've got it
You've got it going on
You've got it
Lo and behold
You've got it
That's for sure

Somebody to Hold
04:03
|
|

Just take a look at it all
and tell me that you're
below the line
Don't keep that will in reverse
you know it's more than
A curse to hide
You've got to show don't tell
As nobody knows
If you never sail
Each side of a smile
that guards gonna go
As you face survival
You trigger more hysterics
Every time you say it's
Getting cold
You're clearly
contemplating something
that'll backfire on your soul
You should have never told me
You were keeping track
Of letting it go
It's all a bitter feeling when we
All just need somebody to hold
You push and pull for power
Give some room to grow
A shallow lesson
We both know we won't allow
there trying to talk us
Into completely shutting down
Let's leave it up to someone
whose gonna run their mouth
You trigger more hysterics
Every time you say it's
Getting cold
You're clearly
contemplating something
that'll backfire on your soul
You should have never told me
You were keeping track
Of letting it go
It's all a bitter feeling when we
All just need somebody to hold x2

Hill to Hill

Take a glimpse at
what is waiting
Make a friend to love unpainted
Make a move on me while wasted
I guarantee
that I'll find you've fainted
-
Good God,
Girl if ever
I'm never gonna waiver
You can tell me
what I look like later
You've got me burnt to the
ground and it's plain fun
Don't dumb me down
till it's all done
Stronger now
Got you lovestruck
More than less I'm
Dressed to impress
When I pass on through
With you telling me
Now where we'll go
from hill to hill
True love won't let us capsize
Through the storm
We're going hill to hill
to hill to hill to hill to hill x2
Take a glimpse at
what is waiting
Make a friend to love unpainted
Make a move on me while wasted
I guarantee
that I'll find you've fainted
-
Good God,
Girl if ever
I'm never gonna waiver
You can tell me
what I look like later
You've got me burnt to the
ground and it's plain fun
Don't dumb me down
till it's all done
Stronger now
Got you lovestruck
More than less I'm
Dressed to impress
When I pass on through
With you telling me
Now where we'll go
from hill to hill
True love won't let us capsize
Through the storm
We're going hill to hill
to hill to hill to hill to hill x2
n alright not so steep to some
but they don't watch me climb this high
Way up I'm just rolling rocks and
I can see whose love's disguised
I know that you know
Just as well as I
To just take a glimpse

Bandit
04:36

In the making
It's best to know
Where to start
In the making
It's not a walk
in the park
Take to the streets
With your head
held up high
Knock on the door
Where they've got
More supply
Don't get remanded
Or dance out of time
Don't be a vandal of
Unlikely light -
Just don't you
be so heavy-handed
you're not a bandit at all
Just don't you be so
Heavy-handed
Pride comes before a fall
Don't be a bandit at all x3
In the making
It's best to know
Where to start
In the making
It's not a walk
in the park
Take to the streets
With your head
held up high
Knock on the door
Where they've got
More supply
Don't get remanded
Or dance out of time
Don't be a vandal of
Unlikely light -
Just don't you
be so heavy-handed
you're not a bandit at all
Just don't you be so
Heavy-handed
Pride comes before a fall
All that defiance does is die
Rise like you're higher than skies
unlike the bandit the bandit the bandit

Girl What Do You
04:31
|
|

Girl what do you want from me
Oh what do you want from me
I don't have time on my hands for
Something temporary
I guess I know what love is
So tell me that you won't
Give it up too easily will you hold on
Travel with me coast to coast
In the summer light sunshine
We could sail in a sailboat
We'll float wherever we like but
Just know
Your personality
Is what I want to see
The soul you hold inside
Is what I want to feel
A simple touch from you
Could make my world complete
The words you speak are
Full of sweetness
I don't know what I do deserve
I've been so bad but you'd
Have me feeling good if it's alright
And I would take no time to change
Oh, baby, you could trust
I'll keep you safe
Throughout life
And as we have to change
along the way, you'll know
My strength is yours forever
Before, before it all fades
We'll share some love together but
Your personality
Is what I want to see
The soul you hold inside
Is what I want to feel
A simple touch from you
Could make my world complete
The words you speak are
Full of sweetness

Falling Doves

For your dose on the road
We're on it just
hear me love
Another falling dove
From the same hand, you are.
You are-
Falling doves x4
You are-
Falling doves x4

Love Stricken
03:11
|
|
||
Just another trying to fuel my fire
Bored from looking at a coin in the mirror
Just another tryna make my mind up
What I do to reflect my strength
Dear remind me I
said I'd be back in flames
I'll pay you with love
Every which way
Some brush with the nightlife
Girl for you I pray
The lights upon the city shine
About this your solitary maze
And I feared the worst
That my heart would break
Girl, you keep me looking
At the star you've made
Pull the pin
Break a string for a living
Girl you've got me
To murder the rhythm
Kick the trip that we
shared joint switching
Bet you know that it's
Bad for your system
No more nights alone
Girl, I'm gonna run until
I'm right at home
Throw your voodoo doll
Never stop telling yourself
Life is bountiful
Some want it to last here
And some have already let it go
They leave the stars cut in their shape
And give them no more time to show
Girl, you keep me looking
At the start, you've made
You're my coin in the mirror
How we're sold with a touch of pain
Bite the bullet and alert me now
Just to waste no want, not like yourself
Tell now you don't sleep at all
Cause I'm not the dream you've been
Waiting for
Girl, you keep me looking at
The star you've made
You're my coin in the mirror
All the more you're the song I play
Through all that we've cast aside
It suited me some to provide
Just another keeping dreams alive
Much more than meets the eye
When you go-go
I couldn't show you why I grieve
Girl, I love you and there's
Not enough for me
In a chokehold that seemed
the way to be
This the song I play now
Cause I'm love-stricken
