about

This is a bit of an older song but (what feels like a million years ago) I had some extra time in the studio so I decided to record the guitars for this song. So now I am releasing it like this. I am quite happy with how it came out as I think the addition of the violin and louder guitars help achieve what I was going for.

lyrics

Do I drink to remember or just to forget?
I can see the morning coming round the bend
I feel the heat through my eyes
Turn around for cover and throw up again

As I wake up and struggle for water
Red eyes staggered thoughts
As I beg beg beg for sugar

Now that I down, that I'm low
That I'm not talkative anymore
Think of you, think of me, together

Do I live to remember or just to forget?
I can see the sunlight crawling up the wall
Lay on my bed look at my phone
Flick flick flicker out of it all

As I curl up and try to remember
I start to put the seams
All the seams together

Now that I down, that I'm low
That I'm not talkative anymore
Think of you, think of me, together

Why don't you help me to feel less lonely?
Why don't you help me to feel less lonely?
Why don't you help me to feel less lonely?
Why don't you help me to feel less lonely?

(Do I drink to remember or just to forget?
I can see the morning coming round the bend
I feel the heat through my eyes
Turn around for cover and throw up again)

I feel alone, I feel alive
With you all through the night
But I don't need you at all and
I just want to feel at home
With myself in the end
Without the need to pretend
Without the need to pretend
Without the need to pretend
