You’re a skyline
Always there but never close enough
You’re the sun and I’m burning
Lose all I dream of
You’re the moon and I’m a werewolf
All I can do is howl
At the reflection on the water
I can’t reach
Where are you
Kept me waiting
Leave me out in the cold
Never where you say you’ll be
Fire eyes never at the right time
You take any soul you can get
Make them pay with their lives

Got No Time

Here I am, a reminder three times a year
An obligatory catch up
Boring, tame, safe
You’d have asked but you didn’t think I’d want to come
You might as well say
‘I’ll bring the drinks and you bring the drama’
But you know I quit the stage a long time ago
Out of sight
Out of mind
Got no time
What’s your incentive?
What’s your reward?
What if I told you I’d done this before?
Would I reappear on your radar?
Hitting the town and tagging behind
Only worth knowing when accessorised with wine

Smile

Work me twice as hard
Wear heels twice as high
Shut down in conversation
By a man named interruption
A faceless body on a TV screen
A pair of legs on a magazine
Blue jeans, long sleeves
The stranger in the car screams out
But I will not smile for you
And I’m not your darling
My thoughts, my head, my muses
Too similar to the faceless others
My home is not a kitchen
My job is not a mother
We’re told we’re crazy if we stand up to you
But what did silence ever do
You deny that it could be you
Then call us sluts from across the room

The Black and White

Watch out, I’m looking over my shoulder
and you won’t do what I told you
I’m on lookout, wait to see if you snap again
I’m pushing buttons, you ain’t listening
I’m unhinged, but you’re too stubborn to work it out
And I’m too bold to give it up tonight
We’re chasing out own tails rather than settling down
How long have we got to keep going round
The sun isn’t really orange
And the sea isn't really blue
Everything is on the line
But you’ve got nothing to prove
Keep me in your pocket
And in the lilac of your mind
I’ve got a feeling we’ll be just fine
Take me over, make me over
It doesn't get better than this
You keep me sane, and I’ll keep you on your toes
You’ve never had to deal with this before
Climb over walls, look at me twice
Living your best life, give me mine
I overcomplicate overcompensate
Breathe before I suffocate
Spaces to crawl in, lines to be drawing
Maybe I’m not the best with timing
The sun isn’t really orange
And the sea isn’t really blue
You’re looking at me with those eyes
And I don’t know what to do
Keep me in your sightline
And keep me to yourself
Leave me by your window
