Valentine

You love to love me me
But you can’t hold me
Splendid
Fantasy
Suspended
Reality
You love to love me
you have to free me
Like a bird
You will see me
dissolve into
Poetry
I couldn’t battle your demons
I couldn’t swallow your secrets
You were mine, but i'm starting to see it
Valentine, now we’re barely breathing
You love to love me
You will forget me
The past is
My legacy
When you
Forgive me
I couldn’t battle your demons
I couldn’t swallow your secrets
You were mine, but i'm starting to see it
Valentine, now we’re barely breathing
Free me
forget me
Free me
To free yourself
Free me
forget me
Free me
To free yourself

The Bell Jar
03:14
|

I think about your kiss, your touch
Before it hurts me too much
i try and remember the way we were
in the days long before the bell jar
I long to touch your skin
I long to let the sunshine in
instead im trapped here inside
As a little more of me dies
I have to love you from afar
Trapped here inside my bell jar
I live inside a gilded cage
I’m elderly before my age
I gave away my freedom
I couldn’t live out there with them
I have to love you from afar
Trapped inside my bell jar
I lift the lid and sniff the air
I feel the sun on my skin
And the wind in my hair
I let you in, I let you in
I have to love you from afar
Trapped inside my bell jar
I have to love you from afar
Trapped inside my bell jar

Losing My Charm
02:44
|
|||
high up in the hills
of the hollywood sign
tryna find a life
that was never mine
packin all my bags
leaving it behind
and without my dreams
well, who am i?
who am i?
running over stones
down to the sea
looking for a trace of
who i could be
looking at my face
and it isnt me
running in a race
i could never beat
who am I?
i used to know where i was going
followed every star that was glowing
i never did no-one no harm
now here i am losing my charm
losing my charm
losing my charm
losing my charm
losing...
high up in the hills
of the hollywood sign
giving up a dream
that was never mine

The Long Way
02:26
|
|||
I learn my lessons
The hard way
I write my poetry
On the subway
I wear my shoes
Til they fade
I always choose
The long way
the long way
I can’t compete
With you
I’d rather you didn’t
Ask me to
i'm not the girl
u knew
i always choose the long way
please
take me home
please
take me home
the long way
the long way
the long way

Like Neptune
04:54
|
|||
I’m ready for a change
Time, carry me away
Like a leaf blowing in the wind
I can’t say where I’m going
Like a girl walking into a new bar
U gotta learn to fit where u are
Like a lover falling out of love
U gotta learn to trust your heart
Baby, I don’t mind
It all comes with time
Honey
Dry your eyes
And tell me
everything's alright
Like a wave
breaks on the sand
like time
Slips through my hands
Like Neptune
illusions out in space
I want to
Disappear with grace
Baby, I don’t mind
It all comes with time
Honey
Dry your eyes
And tell me
everything's alright
I’m ready for a change
Time Carry me away
Like a lotus blooming in the dirt
U gotta know how to know ur worth

Ojai
03:52
|
|||
I’m going back to Ojai
to where i felt alive
when I made up my mind
to let my old self die
I feel im going home
to where I belong
Back to your arms for good
Back to your neighbourhood
I left you in the valley
You said you’d wait for me
But too much time has gone
And now you’re on your own
I’m going back to Ojai
Heaven on a mountain side
I’ll watch the sun with you
I’ll be at one with you
will you come back to ojai?

The sun will rise again
Over your broken heart
between our two worlds
A veil keeps us apart
Death is just a night
A night between two days
The ocean washes you
Reminds you of your pain
And if you sit still
Sit still with me
You can hear the sun
Move oh so quietly
The sun will rise again
It rises every day
It rises on a world
That don’t look right to me
And if you sit so still
Sit still, with me
You can hear the sun
Move oh so quietly
And if you sit still
Sit still with me
We will watch the birds
Rise up above the trees
You can hear the sun
You can hear the sun
Oh it keeps me holding on
How you can hear the sun
