Untitled

You keep running over me
tyre tracks are blackening my ready-blackened mind
oh why you have to put me down
time and time again you push my head in to the ground

I pulled heads from you Barbie dolls
You stamped on my Airfix kits
I stick pins in your tortured soul
and you put them right back where I sit

I think that you want me dead
waiting to throw my electric razor in the bath
oh speak sweet nothing in my ears
conversations roam as you're slamming down the phone

I pushed you down the station steps
you kicked me off my Boris bike
You bruise the skin that I had left
and play the music I dont like


Im the victim of my own advice
Give it to me twice a night
make another sordid memory
give it to me when I half asleep


Its not you but its not me
christ alive its plain to me but youre too blind to see oh
leave me be, just leave me be
with a heart of stone you know Im better off alone

It didnt have to be like this
Kiss me as I eat your fist
Throw my clothes in a duffel bag
Get pissed as I slit my wrists

All that's eastern is not cockney
Dark voices only mock me
Dead souls with Shoreditch cuts
A Dead Pariah

Creepers creeping through the night
National health providing sight 
Faithful hints of Hugo boss
And vintage tweed

Though I don't fit the bill
Why I come here still?

Hoxton square is boasting plenty
Freckled faces under twenty 
Never been the Arty type though 
Skinnies suit me

Spend your money on Cocaine
Free to me so why complain
A trendy nod, lest the Eighties
Rest In Peace

Think Before You Speak


I hate the moves your tongue makes
Think before you speak

I miss the bones your words break
Think before you speak

Give me a break for gods sake
And think before you speak

My life is full of mistakes
But that's just the way I am

I know that, I wasn't there
And that, I didn't care And
 you Had to explain
It was, not in your brain
And that, I am a pain
And I do not think, before I speak oh.

I haven't got the right clothes
Think before you speak

Brush off the white on your nose
Think before you speak
 
You’re so good oh Christ knows
think before you speak

I just can’t stand the low blows
it’s that's just the way I am

I know that, I wasn't there
And that, I didn't care And
 you Had to explain
It was, not in your brain
And that, I am a pain
And I do not think, before I speak oh.


the Hairdryer’s in the bath and now the
washing’s at half mast

I know that, I wasn't there
And that, I didn't care And
 you Had to explain
I was, not in your brain
And that, we are the same
And that I do not think, before I speak oh.

Im Not Dead Yet


Well nature is a filthy thing
And you're as natural as they come
Tears down your salty skin
Screaming wont you let me in  
                    Sirens screaming all around
Sound in perfect symmetry
Lock and load and cut me down
But I'm not dead yet..


Pulling teeth in the same old scene
Contemplating victory
If I wasn't half as mean
I'd say I loved it
If I was satisfied
But I'm not satisfied
I know I'm not alive
But I'm not dead yet


I'm not dead yet
I'm not dead yet
I'm not dead....yet...


Now I Put the world to rights
Climb the ladders in your tights
Given half a chance you know I'd
Walk away now
If I was Charlie Sheen
but I’m not Charlie Sheen
If I was half as clean
I’d say that you were too
I'm not dead yet
I'm not dead yet
I'm not dead....yet...

I Want to be in a Pop Punk Band.


I want to be in a pop punk band
With 20 guitars and a mic in my hands
See my face on the bedroom walls
Have a new Stratocaster round my ankles

I wanna say what you want to hear
Its so easy with the kids round here cos there’s
No meaning to your words
You’re just in it to impress the girls

Sounds like Im from L.A
But really I’m from Guildford

The Girls love me, so do the boys
Especially when I make my noise
Words of love in a foreign voice
Were all the same so make your choice now

My hair’s straighter than your dad
The best pair of straighteners I ever had
Weren’t quite a pair of GHD’s
But they only cost a tenner in the pharmacy

Now that I’ve turned 18
I've come to water down your scene

Do Not Disturb


Walking the floor with a look that’s in your eyes
You’re talking and stalking the best of the advise that
You could give
You’re impulsive
With the tendencies of others that are very different If they
Are not yours
The Bedroom doors
That have got a don’t disturb sign, fallen to the floor

Crying in the kitchen sick of taking orders
On the bathroom lino, curling at the corners I
Saw your face
In homebase
You know you cannot hate what you can’t anticipate now
In the drawer
The First World War has a
Better happy ending and an underscore

Sleeping with the Lights on


I get the feeling that you’re stealing
The love I thought I was giving to you.
Were you concealing
A hidden meaning
Looking at the ceiling, sleeping with the lights on

You were the first one, and the last one
Honest to god as a firing squad
I needed healing
You were appealing
Stop the sinking feeling, sleeping with the lights on

But Luck’s nothing to do with it you
Always wanted more
And now im standing waiting here
for you to come and break my heart once more.

Sticks and stones can't break my bones but
you could kill me with a glance
I was falling
from a building
while I was dreaming , sleeping with the lights on

I get the feeling you're not feeling
all the seasons pass me by
the happy ending
I was expecting
messages were sending, sleeping with the lights on



Love's nothing to do with it you
Always wanted more
And now im standing waiting here
for you to come and break my heart once more.

Back to the start, the love tore us apart again

Back to the start, the love tore us apart again, again
back t the start.
