No games, and no dice No frills, and no lies How does it feel? No time for treading the water No way to make it cut and dry How does it feel To know you’re still here? Still making all the same mistakes again...

All these wild thoughts They’re twisting round my head And I’ve come short All because I held my breath Over you. To find your way You try and follow mine But it’s changing So I’m here to draw a line Under you. Dancing with the Devil But he’s inside it’s where he’ll stay Pulling apart every level Pulling apart, not getting away. All because I held my breath Over you.

Set this thing on fire Reach into the heart Stop the wheels from turning Taking back control Mental treason No rhyme or reason Down the river sold For all we’ve lost We bare the cost Of taking back control All this time Never read the signs Open up our arms and let the freedom shine Peace of mind Reconciled Taking back control

Side by side in fire Side by side in flames We’ve been over wires Seen that nothing’s changed We don’t need to hold back - you ain’t saving face Higher, higher, higher Oh take me where I’ll grow You don’t need our love You left that alone Won’t you save it? Oh save it. There’s a stain That you can’t wash off Now you’re broke broke broke With your mistakes You never change And now it’s cold cold cold When you had your voice You let it fade. Side by side in fire Side by side in flames Preaching to the choir Waste your breath away We don’t need to hold back - you ain’t saving face (Oh save it) Higher, higher, higher Lord take me where I’ll grow. Will you find forgiveness? Maybe save your soul? Oh won’t you save it? Oh save it. You let it fade yeah Now it’s too late yeah Don’t talk Don’t speak Don’t talk You said your piece.

Confide in the comfort Of promises built in stone Pieces of home Reasons we keep When something has gone Although it seems hard, we start to move on But don’t forget the feeling (All that we know) Everything changes Everything changes You can have the best laid plans But sometimes things just slip through your hands And everything changes Everything changes again Searching for something Somewhere I belong Beginning to find my way Holding my breath Losing my step Changing the plans I made You tell me to hold on You reach out to steady my grip We had the best laid plans To keep us safe from this But I forgot the feeling Don’t forget the feeling (All that we know) Everything changes Everything changes You can have the best laid plans But sometimes things just slip through your hands And everything changes Everything changes again When I’m lost in my grief I can’t steady my feet There’s something that keeps me here I found a moment Where I can stay And everything starts to clear There’s no better reason That I can see For us to find our peace Just don’t forget the feeling When everything changes

about

My debut solo album!
After years of working on various projects I've finally managed to put together my own album, featuring a bunch of talented friends and an exploration of different styles and sounds I enjoy. If you're looking for an album that shows what I'm about and blurs a bunch of lines, then I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
