Faint flicker from the corner of the mirror Catches me off guard while the laptop falls off charge Surprised there was no murmurs in the yard Easy to find a likeness in the dark Grabs you in the heart causing love to drift apart But it always finds its way back Drinks on the bedside loves living on the breadline At times it’s fine but I’m inclined to chime up when it’s right I’ll leave my mind to decide If loves blind I’ll let fate make its own grub Up all night saying love ignites Talk to me I’m talking northern lights Colours of your mind I’m seeing asking price Allow your ears to be exercised What times it acceptable to stay up till? When you’ve got nothing planned the next day or two I’m up all night writing virtual crimes Of the kind that kill beats of mine I try and try to keep an open mind cos my girl appreciates when I provide Subtle love doesn’t blossom overnight It creeps up on you and works overtime Watch me now I’ll lose my trail of thought Cos when I try concentrate the words fall short I’m pleading with you now just please adore The eyes lay before you that you asked for Watch me now I know you’ve got my back We always talk about change like we’re diplomats But these appeals they fall upon the deafest of ears Thank fuck for that erasing all our fears

I wish you’d stop looking back at me At what I’m doing, smoking or saying Cos when you only look at yourself with greed I’ll lose love for you with no waiting This underlying feeling of guilt i own That has me for breakfast lunch and tea Asks me every day if I Should let you and our friendship rest in peace And while I’m sat here writing these lines at home You’ll lose interest on the phone I know They’ll be a message left unread or some Instagram video I’ve sent that never comes Don’t let the ball hit the ground and leave our love drying out for our mums to see Lose sight of the boy claimed her second son If she ever lost us we’d say the hatred won I struggle to communicate sometimes So this is my best form of communication My feelings of late haven’t crossed this line Let’s hope it stays that way for our own frustrations Look, it’s probably best I get off now Cos I’ve said my piece and signed my vows Stop looking back at me he said So I took those words and spoke them myself From my heart straight through to your ears I hope these words ring out down south Cos I’m sick and tired of repeating myself I’d rather make tea ourselves than go without I wish you’d stop looking back at me At what I’m thinking, believing and praying Cos when you only look at yourself I plead Look at the world around it’s not waiting

Okay, look I’ll lose sleep and I’ll Gain it back the next morning Who’s feelin blue I know The boy who can’t stop yawning Half of me thinks I’m not working hard enough half the time But if I’m scraping the barrel more than once in my life I’ll look at myself through greyed out glasses and I’ll Pick out all of my growing faults And I’ll slide em in this empty wallet of mine Right next to the invisible notes Whose who to tell me if I’m right or if I Should leave the guessing to the experts Cos to be honest with myself takes a lot of time Most of which makes my fucking chest hurt I guess I just need to (in the chorus) Choosing to stay up late, later than the average loser I tell you It isn’t really a choice Cos if you’re feeling the way that I do right now All the little people inside you, they wouldn’t rejoice I quite like waking up and missing breakfast It gives me a chance to mull it all over You know, I just thrive on an empty stomach All that thinking it brings my head and my stomach a whole lot closer For this last verse that you’re about to hear I think I’m gonna pass the baton over to a friend of mine He’ll explain the words I’m tryna say a little more clearer And that verse of his on this song helps me pass the time

There’s way way too many fuckin hours in the day And simply not enough in the night I lose my mind when my body stays up late And loses sight of love when it’s bright She looked at me as I looked away It’s heart trips with the way mine sways Brightest glow bites at lovers bait Then shrivels down in the light of day Strangers eyes mirror loves Demise Coldest nights with the strangest highs Wrap me in your warm surprise Soak my skin vice at night I said soak my skin vice at night Boredom strikes like the bluntest knife Wash it down with a purple prize Now I’m feeling to take the flight Parallels in the way I chat Brace new faces for the sack No entry now in my minds pad Closed on the door to stop attacks Red on the front to stop attacks Bare with my friend he packs lightly Use brown tape cover up the cracks dunno if he’s safe but he said he might be Off the dome I reckon this one slaps Use my phone to talk politely don’t ever fall in domestic traps me n my Mrs don’t keep it feisty Link brad make sure he rolls it tightly chappers one too cos you know he’ll ask take em thru a new town to sight see kill a set on stage bare nerves I’ll pass eye of a needle is the size of your Ability to get to new highs you bore I write my rhymes on a double edged sword Your ones get written on while your bored I’ve deviated from the subject matter Back to basics down the ladder Wind down again until it’s time For my ep to drop saying autumns mine I’ve deviated from the subject matter Back to basics down the ladder Wind down again until it’s time For my ep to drop saying autumns mine

This is a love song for all my people All those close Getting by I wanna talk about when times are peaceful Walking out Summer night Whether it’s on the way back from a gig with brad And with whoever’s tagged along in the back Or driving up the m6 with my old man Go and see the woman who dont let me call her nan Tired drives underneath blue skies Heart eyes emoji advertised Heat of the windscreen Against my thighs Makes me feel things I ain’t for time And it has been time Since me and jack drove back from London And kept all the chat for when we got knocked out Semi finals coloured vinyls I miss those drives when we weren’t in doubt Or off to pick up my little sister Couldn’t tell her how much I’d missed her How much I’d missed her My little brother in his car seat Smiles all round when he kept us laughing Mum in the front knowing the family she’s built Is one for keeps it’s all love within Love within that’s universal The people surrounding I’m forever grateful Heart eyes emoji advertised Story of my life that it defines I wanna ask my dad now if he remembers Wheels on the motorway sun roof down The birth of the rude boys 4 years old Who’d think We’d have our own song written about it now Whether it’s driving underneath the sun that shines in Tenerife Or beneath the clouds that England brings Family surrounds me whoever I’m with Even the new friends in the passenger seat Lately I’ve been really thinking about The times without background noise I’ll stare smiling while driving quiet And strain just to hear their voice Ramsay’s of a and Ramsey’s with e Although separate now it’s all love to me And last but not least a new family tree Welcoming like a fish to sea Love don’t fail with a fam like theirs Grappling love warmest affairs Welcome hearts like the comfiest chairs Opening arms never fears And it’s her voice that’s so comforting The one who sits on that seat most Loves never had a sharper sting One that hits like marmite butter on toast Heart eyes emoji advertised Story of my life that it defines
