Recharge the Soul
I've got sparks in my brain
A tangled mess I can’t explain
Running on fumes I’m out of time
Clock spinning backwards stealing my prime
But I hear a hum in the silence
A whisper of something new
It’s the sound of defiance
Breaking through
Recharge the soul let the lightning strike
Plug me in let me feel alive tonight
I hear the sounds I can't decode
But when the music calls I’ll hit the road
Tired eyes heavy as stone
Chasing shadows I’m never alone
My heart beats loud like a rebel drum
Waiting for the spark to come
But the spark’s in the waiting
In the stillness of the dark
It’s the fire regenerating
Rebuilding my heart
Recharge the soul let the lightning strike
Plug me in let me feel alive tonight
I hear the sounds I can't decode
But when the music calls I’ll hit the road
I've got sparks in my brain
A tangled mess I can’t explain
Running on fumes I’m out of time
Clock spinning backwards stealing my prime
But the spark’s in the waiting
In the stillness of the dark
It’s the fire regenerating
Rebuilding my heart
Recharge the soul let the lightning strike
Plug me in let me feel alive tonight
I hear the sounds I can't decode
But when the music calls I’ll hit the road
Floating
Floating so high
Like a kite on a string
Just me and the sky
What will tomorrow bring
Dreaming in the air
No worries no care
Floating free now
Somehow
The world spins below me a tiny blue ball
Sometimes I wonder why I never fall
But the wind holds me steady a gentle soft hand
Dreaming in the air above this magical land
Dreaming in the air
No worries no care
Floating free now
Somehow
Maybe I'll visit the moon for a while
Share my dreams of the stars with a smile
No need for a map no need for a guide
Just me and you side by side
Dreaming in the air
No worries no care
Floating free now
Anyhow
Floating so high
Like a kite on a string
Just me and the sky
What will tomorrow bring
Dreaming in the air
No worries no care
Floating free now
Anyhow
Dancing into Tomorrow
Feet on fire can't feel the ground
Lost in the beat where no thoughts are found
Neon lights paint my skin
The night begins to pull me in
Dancing all night a whirl a spin
Keeps me from the mess within
Heartbeat pounding mind resets
In the morning I'll forget
The room’s a blur faces fade
I’m a shadow in a masquerade
No past no future just the now
Sweat like glitter dripping down
Dancing all night a whirl a spin
Keeps me from the mess within
Heartbeat pounding mind resets
In the morning I'll forget
Spinning faster gravity’s gone
Thoughts dissolve with every song
Every turn erases pain
Let the music drown my brain
Dancing all night a whirl a spin
Keeps me from the mess within
Heartbeat pounding mind resets
In the morning I'll forget
Music is the Key
When everything is chaos and my brain is on the turn
I find a chord
A melody
And everything is mine again
When my guitar's alive
I am alive
When I hear my voice
It stops the noise
Music is the key
When I'm spinning
I start to play
When I'm lost
It's the only way
When I need to breathe
I open my mouth
And the rest will figure itself out
When my guitar's alive
I am alive
When I hear my voice
It stops the noise
Music is the key
When I start to think
I start to sink
So I play
I sing
I let it ring
I strum
I hum
Until I become
My heart
My voice
My choice
My heart
My voice
My choice
When my guitar's alive
I am alive
When I hear my voice
It stops the noise
Music is the key
To everything
Afternoon Drift
Getting through the day
With my shoes half-laced
Long afternoons
Stuck in the same place
Nothing on the table
Just an empty plate
I watch the fan turn
And I wait
I check the clock twice
It barely moves
I fake a good smile
Like I know what to do
The room feels larger
When the phone stays still
I keep on moving
Just to fill the chill
Getting through the day
Getting through the day
Nothing to do
But keep it moving anyway
No-one to see
No-one to save me
Getting through the day
Getting through the day
Through the day
Sun on the floorboard
Fades to the wall
I count my steps
In the same short hall
Cold glass of water
Warm by noon
I make small plans
Then lose them too
I check the clock twice
It barely moves
I fake a good smile
Like I know what to do
The room feels larger
When the phone stays still
I keep on moving
Just to fill the chill
Getting through the day
Getting through the day
Nothing to do
But keep it moving anyway
No-one to see
No-one to save me
Getting through the day
Getting through the day
Through the day
Maybe I don't need
A miracle call
Maybe I just need
To make it past it all
One more hour
Then the light will change
One more breath
Then I'll try again
Getting through the day
Getting through the day
Nothing to do
But keep it moving anyway
No-one to see
No-one to save me
Getting through the day
Getting through the day
Through the day
Missing You
Feeling down
Feeling low
Staring at the ceiling
Like it might somehow know
Feeling hollow
Feeling blue
Every quiet corner
Keeps turning into you
I’m hollow when I miss you
Every room an empty frame
I say your name in a whisper
And it echoes back the same
I’m trying to be okay here
But every road leads back to you
Feeling down
Feeling low
Feeling hollow
Feeling blue
Missing you
Cold cup on the table
Your lipstick on the rim
I still save you a side of the bed
Lights off on a whim
All these almost-answered messages
I never hit send though
I write
I’m fine
I’m fine again
When all I mean is you
I’m hollow when I miss you
Every room an empty frame
I say your name in a whisper
And it echoes back the same
I’m trying to be okay here
But every road leads back to you
Feeling down
Feeling low
Feeling hollow
Feeling blue
Missing you
Morning Blues, You're Gone
Sun crawls up my window
Coffee stains on my old shirt
Yesterday sat on my shoulders
Now it’s past the time for hurt
Left my worries in the wash
Let ‘em spin, make them new
If the sky can turn this gold
Guess my luck can just turn too
Morning blues, you’re gone
And I’m still here, so let’s party (oh yeah)
Bare feet on the counter
Mismatched socks, feeling fancy
If this is all I’ve got
Then this is all that I need
Morning blues, you’re gone
Watch me dance to my own heartbeat
Bills still on the table
Phone screen cracked, still it rings
But my toast jumps like a dancer
And my spoon taps on the sink
Neighbours banging on the ceiling
‘Cause I’m humming off-key
If joy is slightly crooked
Guess it’s just perfect for me
Morning blues, you’re gone
And I’m still here, so let’s party (oh yeah)
Bare feet on the counter
Mismatched socks, feeling fancy
If this is all I’ve got
Then this is all that I need
Morning blues, you’re gone
Watch me dance to my own heartbeat
Guitar still in its case
Need to practice, maybe soon
Just time for another cigarette
Hoping it'll last till noon
My mind is not yet ready
For more of what life sends
So until the evening comes again
I'll just lie here and pretend
Morning blues, you’re gone
And I’m still here, so let’s party (oh yeah)
Bare feet on the counter
Mismatched socks, feeling fancy
If this is all I’ve got
Then this is all that I need
Morning blues, you’re gone
Watch me dance to my own heartbeat
Dartmoor Hares
Brown backs flash through the bracken
White tails cut through the heat
Dust kicks up from the track and
You’re laughing
Trying to keep your feet
Blue mug warm in your hands still
Tea gone cold but you don’t care
Sky so wide it feels infinite
You point and shout
Look. There
Dartmoor hares in the summer
Wild hearts breaking from cover
You run
They run
All out of breath
Grass seeds stuck to your dress
Dartmoor hares in the summer
Time slows down
Then it stutters
If I could hold one blazing frame
I’d keep this hill
Your hair
Their names
Heather hum
Distant river
Heat haze over the stones
You say
This will be forever
Like forever’s something we own
They freeze
Ears high
Then scatter
Across that rippling green
My hand catches your shadow
You slip right through my fingers
Clean
Dartmoor hares in the summer
Wild hearts breaking from cover
You run
They run
All out of breath
Grass seeds stuck to your dress
Dartmoor hares in the summer
Time slows down
Then it stutters
If I could hold one blazing frame
I’d keep this hill
Your hair
Their names
Years roll past like the weather
Maps fold soft at the seams
Still I walk that same high heather
Chasing echoes
Chasing dreams
Every path leads back to
That sudden burst of fur and light
Your voice is near in the afterwards
In the bright sky of my heart
Dartmoor hares in the summer
Wild hearts breaking from cover
You run
They run
All out of breath
Grass seeds stuck to your dress
Dartmoor hares in the summer
Time slows down
Then it stutters
If I could hold one blazing frame
I’d keep this hill
Your hair
Their names
Dartmoor hares in the summer
Dartmoor hares in the summer
Until it's Light Again
Clock says 3 and the ceiling's just staring back at me
Tried counting breaths tried praying under tangled sheets
Every little ache feels louder in the quiet air
Reach for any thought that doesn’t end up back in here
So I just watch the dark
Wait it out again
Hold my breath and hold my chest
Till this restless aching ends
If I can make it through this night
one small hour, then one more then
Maybe it won’t hurt so hard
When it’s light again
Phone face down, too tired to talk, too wired to dream
Shadows on the wall, draw maps of everywhere I’ve been
Every what-if, every maybe that I pushed aside
Comes and sits with me, like it’s got all the time
So I just watch the dark
Wait it out again
Hold my breath and hold my chest
Till this restless aching bends
If I can make it through this night
One small hour, then one more then
Maybe it won’t hurt so hard
When it’s light again
I whisper, just keep going, keep going to the cracks in my voice
I don’t have to fix it all I just have to outlast this noise
So I just watch the dark
Name the minutes as they spin
Hold my breath and hold my chest
Let the tears fall where they land
If I can make it through this night
One small hour, then one more then
Maybe I’ll remember how to breathe
When it’s light again
When it’s light again
It's Just Me
It's just me
Me
Myself
And I
Until I die
In bed alone
My room is cold
I'm all alone
No one to hold
I need a clone
It's just me
Me
Myself
And I
I wonder why
I wonder why
I'm gonna get you back
You back
You back
You back
You back
I said I'm gonna get you back
You back
You back
You back
You back
I said I'm gonna get you back
You back
You back
You back
You back
I said I'm gonna get you back
You back
You back
You back
You back
'Cause it's just me
Me
Myself
And I
Until I die
In bed alone
My room is cold
I'm all alone
No one to hold
I need a clone
It's just me
Me
Myself
And I
I wonder why
I wonder why
Gonna get you back
You back
You back
You back
You back
I said I'm gonna get you back
You back
You back
You back
You back
I said I'm gonna get you back
You back
You back
You back
You back
I said I'm gonna get you back
You back
You back
You back
You back
It's just me
Me
Myself
And I
Until I die
In bed alone
My room is cold
I'm all alone
No one to hold
I need a clone
It's just me
Me
Myself
And I
I wonder why
I wonder why
Long Goodbye
Light fades now
Empty room
Echoes stay
From our tune
Names we wrote
On those days
Time moves on
It cannot stay
End of day
It’s over now
No more words
No need, no how
It was good
It was true
Thanks, my friends
For all we knew
Roads split wide
We move on
Different skies
Same old song
Close the page
Let it go
What we had
We’ll always know
End of day
It’s over now, over now
No more words
No need, no how, no how
It was good
It was true, it was true
Thanks, my friends
My love to you
My love to you
My love to you
