All the shadows, dancing outside my heart
I see them through windows, flickering the light away
Casting rainbows, but I won't be spell bound by your touch
(Pinned me down by the market and I was so taken aback) but
overjoyed by the chance to pacify this intense life has got me so hung up a break with you is nice,
I'm so fucking glad that you showed up.
I go walking in fields of lavender alone
and I'm remembering what you said about the stars and I wish I could see them.
There's so much here for me to do with my day, but I write, and pine for you
smoke a cigarette and I'm still listening to those tunes
So many words make me crazy and I can not say
I've been guarded, so long, I've forgotten the language that I'm on.
But I think I'm almost ready to come out and play,
you better not be intent on breaking my heart cos it's already broken.
There's something you should know about me
(before you pin me to the ground)
there's something you should know about me
I'm on the rebound.
I read unicorns, they tell me things I need to hear and I'm not sure that that's a good role for you to play my dear.
There's a million things that complicate me but I won't tell you any, I just wanna keep it simple.
There's hope if you can work out some of these things, well I'm so sorry, I'm not giving them away for free.
There's something you should know about me
(as you pin me to the ground)
there's something you should know about me
I'm on the rebound.
There's a chance I could fall too easily
(while were lying on the ground)
well I hope it's just transferred feelings,
I hope I'm only on the rebound...

Another petal falls from the stem
In the morning you can collect
No response at the weekend
Clear your inbox a bomb is coming
wish my eyes were shielded
from the anger within
it's taken it's toll and he's taken offence to everything
Struggle for connection
I lay down my weapons
and I find myself in winter so dark and cold
So this is how it escalated
She uses me like a crutch
In the past I've been stronger
But right now this is just too much
He's just getting wasted
and I can feel this lover
with nowhere to go oh what I would give right now
to be swept up in your arms
my happiness returns
his name burst through the wall that I built to contain it built to contain me
Would you let go of his love
as you bleed down at his feet
where's the safety in need
the safety in need this is damaging me
Would you love if he was cursed?
Did not know it would be worse
but i thought I could feel it
I thought I could feel him in me
So flood me with your love
I live like an island
Would you swim out to me?
swim out to me in winter.

I won't lie
it's so nice to see you
and you do look bright eyed, is it to see me?
Can't believe you came so close so soon
and now my experience shudders at the thought of losing you.
It's so grey in here and I sense, discarded souls while fortunes told and families tense.
Do you know how beautiful you are, in the fluorescent light?
I'm in awe of the will you put up to fight
and I think nearly losing you's made me cling to you a little bit tighter.
Realise our stories undecided, my heart may well be alone and unrequired/a bit misguided/unrequited.
But you drew me to you and now I'm stuck,
I guess our one thing in common is we don't give up.
And I think nearly losing you's made me cling to you a little bit tighter
Do you feel like I'm enough for you to hold on to?
Is my need as obvious as you/yours?
And I think nearly losing you's made me cling to you a little bit tighter,
I hope you get better, soon.

Queen of Uncool Greater London, UK
“The bands I grew up listening to have saved my life many times and if my music helps support one person, then it's my duty to do the same for others. I may be a loner, but I know I’m not alone” – Queen of Uncool.
Queen of Uncool recommends:
It's short, but musically wondrous. Listen.
