my soul

I stood beside
an oak
in earth and heaven rooted
beneath a sky of moody silver
a crow black and ragged blew
across this solid world
from me
to you.

get me out of here (just for now)

I know it’s not Christmas but just for now - sometimes my head is completely done in – get me (the fuck) out of here. (the ass end of nowhere) Really they do my fucking head in at times.


Just for now
A-aye-aye .......
It's that time of year,
Leave all our hopelessness’s aside (if just for a little while)
Tears stop right here,
I know we've all had a bumpy ride (I’m secretly on your side)
How did you know?
It's what I always wanted,
You can never have too many of these
Will you quit kicking me under the table?
I'm trying, will somebody make her shut up about it?
Can we settle down please?
It's that time of year,
Leave all our hopelessness’s aside (if just for a little while)
Tears stop right here,
I know we've all had a bumpy ride (I’m secretly on your side)
Lie down
Deep breaths
Count to ten
Nod your head
(sniff sniff)
I think something is burning,
Now you've ruined the whole thing
Muffle the smoke alarm
Whoever put on this music
Had better quick, sharp, remove it
Pour me another
Oh, don't wag your finger at me
It's that time of year,
Leave all our hopelessnesses aside (if just for a little while)
Tears stop right here,
I know we've all had a bumpy ride (I’m secretly on your side)
Will ya get me outta her, Get me outta here, Get me outta here (repeats til end)
Just for now
Just for now.

heartbreak warfare

Lighting strike
Inside my chest to keep me up at night
Dream of ways
To make you understand my pain

Clouds of sulfur in the air
Bombs are falling everywhere
It's heartbreak warfare

Once you want it to begin
No one really ever wins
In heartbreak warfare

If you want more love why don't you say so
If you want more love why don't you say so



Heartbreak Warfare lyrics
Once you want it to begin
No one really ever wins
In heartbreak warfare

Drop his name
Push it in and twist the knife again
Watch my face
As I pretend to feel no pain


Clouds of sulfur in the air
Bombs are falling everywhere
It's heartbreak warfare
Once you want it to begin
No one really ever wins
In heartbeak warfare

If you want more love Why don't you say so
If you want more love Why don't you say so
Just say so

How come the only way to know how high you get me
Is to see how far I fall
God only knows how much I'd love you if you'd let me
But I can't break free at all

It's heart, heartbreak

I don't care if we don't sleep at all tonight
Let's just just fix this whole thing now
I swear to God we're going to get it right
If you put your weapon down

Red wine and ambient
You're talking shit again.
It's heartbreak warfare

Good to know it's all a game
Disappointment has a name:
It's heartbreak warfare
