POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Give it up to me (seasons, here we come)
Forget about lesions
For here come the seasons,
The noisy boys
Won’t be a nuisance this year
I, I’m a chiming bell, outside your house
And when you try to sleep tonight,
I know, you’ll come to your window,
Fall off the ledge,
And he’ll catch you in his arms (open wide)
He’ll march you to your death,
And I’ll run off (in fear)
Cos’ I’m not, no I’m no scarecrow
CHORUS
Aint it the funny how the world seemed so boring,
Until I came along,
And aint it lovely how
I wrote you into a song
After everything, I’ve watched...

Safelit waters
Several hearts add up to none,
When compared to the blessed, uninterested
You’re worthy of every second,
But I know I’m destined
To be in love
And I’ve no time to figure one out,
Coz I’ve a mind to love myself,
Too inclined to live without,
But uninspired by sudden doubt
CHORUS
Today as I was skimming stones,
you weren’t the re to hold me back,
this is something I cannot handle
You’ve got to get a grip on this girl
And as they hit the rocks and the sharp sticks down below,
I knew that nothing would resurface,...

Learning from mistakes
I can’t remember
I don’t know why
What went through my head?
In that moment of time
Why I ran away
Without the sense to hide
Why I was so quick to escape
But didn’t find
That the grass was any greener
On the other side
I don’t know why
What went through my head?
In that moment of time
Why I ran away
Without the sense to hide
Why I was so quick to escape
But didn’t find
That the grass was any greener

Back to the basics
Carry me onto
My deathbed
Be gentle
Be sen-ti-mental
Sing those sad words once again
To my favourite run down song
On the top of the list
To be played at my funeral
So shush, everyone take a moment to remember me
AS I WAS
Slow down and take a breathe
As I move on
[CHORUS]
Move along, to the place where I'll sleep for a million years
Cherish each and every one of your tears
The sadness brings me comfort
Alligned in my slat bed
I've gone back to basics
No one can make me move
Now it's just...
My deathbed
Be gentle
Be sen-ti-mental
Sing those sad words once again
To my favourite run down song

So shush, everyone take a moment to remember me

Slow down and take a breathe
As I move on

Move along, to the place where I'll sleep for a million years
Cherish each and every one of your tears
The sadness brings me comfort

I've gone back to basics
No one can make me move
