When I turn up the TV, I leave it on uneven numbers When I eat my dinner, I use the cutlery you hated Why can’t you just believe what I’m Saying to you because I’m not Lying about what happened before you left Make me into a monster, tell all our friends that I’m dirt But they won’t believe you, cause you just needed to hate me first You’re gonna hate me me me, you’re gonna hate me me me You’re gonna hate me me me you’re gonna hate me me me you’re gonna I’m sleeping on the sofa, cause I didn’t get the bed I wake up with paranoia, that I’ve lost all my fucking friends Why can’t you just believe what I’m Saying to you because I’m not Lying about what happened before you left Make me into a monster, tell all our friends that I’m dirt But they won’t believe you, cause you just needed to hate my first, you’ve won Hate me Hate me Hate me Hate Why can’t you just believe what I’m (hate me) Saying to you because I’m not (hate me) Lying about what happened before you left Make me into a monster, tell all our friends that I’m dirt But they won’t believe you, cause you just needed to hate my first you’ve won I’m done

Ooooh I’m not sleeping The pan is boiling over, ringing of the timer It’s deafening- I can’t think. My stomach’s twisted Did I leave a light on? Or miss my best friends’ Birthday? I’m not sleeping. Take another bite Delve a little deeper Get hooked on all the things I’ll never say Move to the next round Get high on all of, the things you’ve waited so long to find out Ooooh I’m not sleeping There’s an itch that I can’t reach and a knuckle I’m not cracking Lying awake again. I’m not sleeping Until I’ve given in So I guess I’m just awake again! Take another bite Delve a little deeper Get hooked on all the things I’ll never say Move to the next round Get high on all of, the things you’ve waited so long to find out Ooooh Take another bite delve a little deeper Take another bite delve a little deeper Take another bite delve a little deeper (oooh) Take another bite delve a little deeper (Stuck in my mouth) Take another bite Delve a little deeper (oooooh) Get hooked on all the things I’ll never say (stuck in my mouth) Move to the next round Get high on all of, the things you’ve waited so long to find out (stuck in my mouth) Ooooh Ooooh (stuck in my mouth) Ooooh Ooooh (stuck in my mouth)

Visions 03:28
When you smile I can’t help but stare You catch my eye again and now I sense it’s awkward in the air You roll your eyes up to the sky Glance at your wrist and check the time. Yes I’m way over conscious of what you think about what I say I sit and think of it all day I’m tangled in the thought of what could be And if you’ll ever Been having visions Of piss poor decisions all night If I lose concentration, and give in to temptation I’ll be done Ooooooooooooooh Well I opened myself up to you like I was a book you just flicked through Skimmed over my pages, yet took your time in places And offered me advice, all I really wanted was to hear I’m on my way over, coming to see you, it’ll all get better now my dear Been having visions Of piss poor decisions all night If I lose concentration, and give in to temptation I’ll be done Ooooooooooooooh Let me in, hasn’t this gone too far Tease with a taste and I’m giving in Oh come on it’s not so bad If you ended up with me she might be glad Oh be cool, cause nobody’s watching you Tease with a taste got me on my knees Oh come on, give it all to me It’s not enough to breathe the air you breathe Ooooooooooooooooh (Keep having bad visions) Ooooooooooooooooh (giving in to temptation) Ooooooooooooooooh (when will you just let me) Ooooooooooooooooh (iiiiiiiiiin)

Stuck reminiscing, about those nights We go out all night, be together all the time Now it’s Friday night, I’m the lady in the aisle Clutching wine, picking out some chocolate Where, are my friends I’m drinking alone again, and I’m hung up on way back when Where, is my self Cause I’m not handling this too well, but I don’t think they can tell She’s had a break up, got cheated on Another’s got depression and one more into rehab Now I’m no good, on my own I can’t silence my thoughts, my concepts paralyze me And Where, are my friends I’m drinking alone again, and I’m hung up on way back when Where, is my self Cause I’m not handling this too well, but I don’t think they can tell They can’t tell No Stuck reminiscing, about those nights, We go out all night, be together all the time

Fun 02:57
Stuck repeating this night Reliving it for 6 years of my life I shouldn’t have to have a breakdown For you to know that I am not okay now Take myself, to the top, (take myself to the top of a bridge) of a bridge Jump right off, just to see (jump right off just to see if I’d live) if I’d live Ahhhhhh I don’t think its funny spending all my money Ooooooon tryina find a feelin but I don’t know the meaning of Fuuuuuun anymore, I’m not having Fuuuuuun anymore Get married by a house or have a baby Eugh, it’s all too boring for me I’d rather have another blow out Then spend the weekend in my dressing gown Take myself, to the top, (take myself to the top of a bridge) of a bridge Jump right off, just to see (jump right off just to see if I’d live) if I’d live Ahhhhhh I don’t think its funny spending all my money Ooooooon tryina find a feelin but I don’t know the meaning of Fuuuuuun anymore, I’m not having Fuuuuuun anymore Another weekend out of town, I’ll get the drinks in it’s my round (anymore) Go to the cash point but I’m all out Uh I don’t think its funny spending all my money On tryina find a feelin but I don’t know the meaning of FUN I don’t think its funny spending all my money Ooooooon tryina find a feelin but I don’t know the meaning of Fuuuuuun anymore, I’m not having Fuuuuuun anymore

about

This is my debut EP recorded at Megatone Studios with Mark Gittings. Produced by Michael Henry and released with Babywoman Records. This EP is about the breaking up of and resolving of oneself and each track is a different angle of a relationship breakdown, whether it be romantic or friendship.
