about

I have been writing songs for seven years and writing music for fourteen; this collection is intended as an introduction to me and the collection of songs that I have written.

Thankyou to every musician that I have ever played with, everyone that has been to my gigs and everyone that has inspired me to write songs. You created the musician I am today.

A very special thanks to musicians Joe Welsh, Liam Brown and Cindy Adamson for their time, talent and creativity in the making of this record.

Track Name: Shapes & Colours
You’re just another bunch of shapes and colours
That I will grow to recognise
You’re just another name and mobile number
Another pair of big brown eyes

You’re just another sack of meat and bones
Another set of organs on a skeletal frame
Just another emitter of those pheromones
Sent to make my hair turn grey

When at worst or at best
You’re nothing more nothing less
Then another pair of big brown eyes

You’re just another government statistic
Another old friend from school
Another inconvenient logistic
Another one who followed most of the rules

When at worst or at best
You’re nothing more nothing less
Then another pair of big, chocolate brown, soul searching eyes
Track Name: Dæmons
Do Daemons dance around your soul?
Do you ever wonder if they're gonna take control?
Do you ever mumble in your sleep?
About a promise that you thought you’d never keep
But you did and now it’s hanging over your head
When you close your eyes the ghosts in your bed are laughing

Don’t look back (no no don't no no look back)
Don’t look back (no no don't no no look back)

I have creatures creeping round my heart as well
A constant reminder that if there is a hell
I’ve got a ticket and it cost me a bomb
Twenty four years of getting everything wrong
So if we’re stuck here with what we’ve done
The least we can do is have some fun with what's left
Track Name: You're Not Going To Like This
Good morning baby
How you feeling today?
Do you still have to go to work?
Or could I convince you to stay?

There’s something I’ve been meaning to tell you
There's something I’ve been meaning to say
There’s something different about me
And it just won’t go away

So sorry that I never told you
Half as much as you tell me
But now there’s something different about me
And it just won’t let me be

I don’t know why
It fell from the sky
I don’t know why
It fell on me
Track Name: You Always Know
You always know just what to say
As if you’ve been thinking of it for years
You always know just what to do
As if you’ve been doing it everyday for years
You always know what’s on my mind
You see through my eyes with ease

And if the big bad wolf comes by
And tries to blow my straw house to the ground
It will be you who built your house of bricks
I’ll come running and I know you won’t let me down
You always know just what’s on my mind
You see through my eyes with ease

You always know just what to do
And you know just what to say
Like you’ve been practicing every hour of every day
You always know just what it is
That's on my mind
And you have the answers to
Every question I ever find.
Track Name: Hugging & Kissing
I need a night or two on my own
To try and figure out what went wrong
Cos you’re the closest I’ve ever known to perfect

I need a second or two by myself
Before we end up leaving here with nothing left
I need to figure out why we’re not perfect

We can’t carry on hugging and kissing
Until we figure out what went missing
And where it went

Please don’t give up hope in just a day
Just because we argued and I wanted some space
Know that I love you and everything’s gonna be fine

And please don’t look for love in someone else
I’m gonna fix this so you can’t even tell
There was ever anything awry

We can’t carry on hugging and kissing
Until we figure out what went missing
And where it went

We can’t carry on hugging and kissing
Until we figure out what went missing
And where it went
Track Name: I Think I Want To Change The World
So much to do
So little time
Just want to make my mark
Leave something that’s mine

So I write a few words
Strum a few strings
I try and invent something
Try all sorts of things

Cos what’s the point in being here
If we’re only gona disappear
Without a trace

If there are six and a half billion of us
And I’m just one
Then what are the chances
That somebody has already written this song

Don’t know where I’m heading
Or where I’m from
Or what I’m doing here
But I know it feels wrong

Do you ever feel the same way?
Lost like Captain Janeway
Amongst the stars
Track Name: Timbuktu
This was not to be expected
I never thought I’d see
This old love be resurrected
I bet you thought you’d seen that back of me

You cut me once you cut so deep the bone was showing through
I swore that if you offered again I’d run from here to Timbuktu

After all this time we’re still connected
Inexplicably
And though they say our love was
Misdirected
It still flows so naturally

You cut me once you cut so deep the bone was showing through
I swore that if you offered again I’d run from here to Timbuktu
Track Name: Right My Wrongs
If I can't right my wrongs
By writing you these songs
Then what's the point?

And if I can't do my time
By making these stupid words
Then I give up
