‘Set It Off’
It’s been a long time coming now
And now we’re hear what’s to be done
Sick of looking over my shoulder when
We turn in circles we’re back at the start
Coz I need answers
I’ll ask her the questions
Sometimes my life seems like a TV scene
Feels like history is on repeat
Am I too close to her past?
When time is what she needs to get by
I’ll wait for her answers
But when I ask her the questions
I hear nothing at all
Should I just go by?
Pretend everything’s fine
(Stand up and fight)
Must be another way for sure
(Stand up and fight)
Like I’m banging my head against the wall
(Stand up and fight)
I’m not the same guy I was before
(Tell me is this what you want)
Well man I just don’t know
I wait for her answers
But when I ask her the questions
I hear nothing at all
And I just can’t go by
Pretend everything’s fine
Man I’d rather be gone
(I’m gonna set it off)

'When The Lights are Low'
A cold night burns outside
Burns like my desire
God let me rest
Shake these feelings from my mind
No regrets
Wish I could say that was no lie
But words unsaid, stuck in my head
When I left for the last time
I didn’t want to leave I should’ve told you that night
I can’t let you slip away
Everytime it feels like the end of the line I’m back begging you to stay
Seeing shadows when the lights are low
But no-one else is in sight
Shadows when the lights are low
There’s nowhere to hide
Oh my pride
Left me blind couldn’t see the signs
No defence
Won’t you save this foolish heart of mine
Coz all this time
All this time thought I was holding the dice
But now the lights are low
See these tears I cry
I know I did you wrong I should’ve made it all right
Oh but now it’s too late
Thought I was the one moving on with my life, see this mess of a man today
I’m seeing shadows when the lights are low
No-one else is in sight
Shadows when the lights are low
There’s nowhere to hide
You know I’ll try and stand strong now girl
Though it’s hard to carry on
With half a soul
Know I got to let you go
But at the back of my mind
You’re at the back of my mind
And when the lights are low you come in from the back of my mind
(MUSICAL BREAK OVER BRIDGE CHORDS, NO VOCALS)
Now I’m seeing shadows when the lights are low
But no-one else is in sight
Shadows when the lights are low
There’s nowhere to hide

‘Shimmer’
Verse 1
For some crazy reason,
This has to be said right now.
I can't change these feelings,
I've tried but there's no way out.
I'll just watch and wait.
Verse 2
It hurts so much,
Looking out at such a peaceful time.
And I think of why,
The moon shines so bright in the sky.
But for now, I'll just watch and wait.
Chorus
Can you feel the silence?
Alone with my thoughts
Golden shimmer’s the light that hits my eyes.
Shimmer from the moonlight,
Shimmer from the moonlight.
Verse 3
Please understand,
Decisions have to be made,
I've lived my life in the shade,
Now I'm just longing to live for real,
But for now, I'll just watch and wait.
Chorus
Can you feel the silence?
Alone with my thoughts
Golden shimmer’s the light that hits my eyes.
Shimmer from the moonlight,
Shimmer from the moonlight.
Chorus
Can you feel the silence?
Alone with my thoughts
Golden shimmer’s the light that hits my eyes.
Shimmer from the moonlight,
Shimmer from the moonlight.
SOLO
Verse 4
Everyone has a perfect compliment.
Someone to share this space in time,
I won’t rest until I find you.
For now, I'll just watch and wait.

Lay [ACOUSTIC DEMO]

'Lay'
I can’t get through
Some things that’s gone before
But to be with you
I always want you more
Lay your head down
Wasted breath
Wasted yours and mine
I can’t tell you now
What I want to say inside
Lay yourself down and I forget myself
It feels so good each time I touch you there
Don’t know if it’s fated for us to reconcile
All I know right now is that’s my truth
It’s my truth
Scared where I’m going to
Holding back
Haunted each moment think of when I saw you last
But as she holds me now
Exorcise my past
So lay yourself down I fall over myself
So beautiful embarrassed by the truth I tell
She looks at me her eyes all open wide
No mask to disguise what I knows the truth
God knows the truth, oh yeah
Scared where I’m going to
It’s my truth
It don’t matter what has gone before
What’s here and now is all I want
Can’t quite believe I’m here myself
Scared watching myself fall
Just don’t let me fall into nothing at all
So lay yourself down
