I can hear the beat from the street All the different kinds of people Cheap drinks at the bar Of a two star hotel Oh, asleep you are my night’s just Getting started, wish you were here In a couple hours you’ll wake To a day, we’re miles apart Wearing my best dresses of silk and lace Awake, and out in a new place Can't for the life left in me recall why I came So many long hours away Tomorrow I’ll be on a train Travelling through the towns with names That we hear in all the songs That we like to listen to I’ll probably go through Basingstoke On my way to Waterloo But I don’t care for any place Unless I am with you Wearing my best dresses of silk and lace Awake and out in a new place Can't for the life left in me recall why I came So many long hours away Wearing my best dresses of silk and lace Awake and out in a new place Can't for the life left in me recall why I came So many long hours So many long hours So many long hours away KING © 2016 KATIE BRIANNA GARFOOT
You call yourself kindred to me Call yourself King, and I'd have to agree I am your loyal subject You are the motivator When I am down and doubting You are a gentle praiser You give a little time, you're taking all of mine It is yours I'll be your closest ally You give me a cause to fight for Simply to have you near me Is enough of a reward If you let me in, the blood beneath my skin It is yours You call yourself kindred to me Call yourself King, and I'd have to agree Know I can be a burden But you never made me feel one Your power of persuasion Keeps me from coming undone When I'm walking blind, have mercy on my mind It is yours You call yourself kindred to me Call yourself King, and I'd have to agree ESCAPE OR RESCUE © 2016 KATIE BRIANNA GARFOOT
If I go outside right now And send a spark into the sky Would you see it? If you do, send one to me I'll be waiting Hoping it comes on the breeze So, I see it's dark tonight Hear the wind is picking up the pace And it chills me I don't wanna go inside It's too empty Come and take me for a ride Don't worry that I'll say I love you No, honey 'cause I won't I need some kind of escape, or rescue Someone I can hold Gonna close my eyes and I'll Imagine I am going there Going somewhere As long as it is far away I can hide out From another wasted day Don't worry that I'll say I love you No, honey 'cause I don't I need some kind of escape, or rescue Someone I can hold I need some kind of escape, or rescue Someone I can hold, someone I can hold Someone I can hold NOBODY © 2016 KATIE BRIANNA GARFOOT
Nobody makes my heart beat like you But I feel like I’m walking A step out of time And it’s clear that the rhythm I’m feeling ain’t mine Nobody makes my heart beat like you Nobody makes my heart race like you And I’m running so fast I might trip and fall down And when I get up You might not be around Nobody makes my heart race like you Nobody makes my heart ache like you When the breath leaves my lungs And I’m gasping for air And it burns like the winter To know you don’t care Nobody makes my heart ache like you CHEMICAL LIES © 2016 KATIE BRIANNA GARFOOT Oh, chemical lies Won't you run from my mind Think about you all the time The way you hold me in your grip, tight Yeah, free my blood From your liquid fire Fire only fuels my pain And turns me to ashes the next day Yesterday was golden And the next day, well it’s today And I don't feel the same way More like rust All the things they tell me Are beginning to make sense But you ruined my defence My two-faced friend Oh, chemical lies Won't you run from my mind Think about you all the time The way you hold me in your grip, tight Yeah, free my blood From your liquid fire Fire only fuels my pain And turns me to ashes the next day Try as I might to come out on top But the lesson, I'll never learn Oh, chemical lies Won't you run from my mind Think about you all the time The way you hold me in your grip, tight Yeah, free my blood From your liquid fire Fire only fuels my pain And turns me to ashes the next day TO FEEL BETTER © 2016 KATIE BRIANNA GARFOOT
Stumble through the door Do you even know where you are? Everybody stares Wanna get a glimpse of the star In the beginning it was funny When it seemed like you were having a good time But now the joke wore off you're looking For a new way to feel better, to get high No-one sees you leave Because you're the last one to go They will never know Take another stranger home In the beginning it was funny When it seemed like you were having a good time But now the joke wore off you're looking For a new way to feel better, to get high And now the joke wore off you're looking For a new way to feel better, to get high For a new way to feel better, to get high |

Oh, nobody owes Anything to me, I know No-one comes to take my hand Not desired, not in demand Can't help feel You don't care what's right, or real You don't know me, yet you judge You pay no heed, assume so much Do I play the victim, or the heroine? Is my tongue so bitter, should be saccharine So I lack essential discipline Yeh I best get growing a thicker skin I see all of them Lining up to take the chance Gotta be young, bright and bold And believe all they are told I'll die with An unfulfilled desire to live Drag my name out of the mud I will pay in flesh and blood Do I play the victim, or the heroine? Is my tongue so bitter, should be saccharine So I lack essential discipline Yeh, I best get growing a thicker skin Yeh,I best get growing a thicker skin OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD © 2016 KATIE BRIANNA GARFOOT
Don’t you go reading too much Between the lines I don’t want you seeing Through my alibi Don’t you know Some things are best left unsaid I don’t wanna lie I’m just not ready to say yet Am I only searching for mystery? You know almost everything there is to know Maybe all I need is the space to grow I’ll meet you on the other side of the road Baby I’m far from perfect You know it’s true I’m surprised you stand by me The way you do Don’t you know You could leave at any time I won’t try to stop You from walking, I won’t ask why Am I only searching for mystery? You know almost everything there is to know Maybe all I need is the space to grow I’ll meet you on the other side Meet you on the other side Meet you on the side of the road DON'T FEEL RIGHT © 2016 KATIE BRIANNA GARFOOT
I‘ll do my best to put a smile on your face So I guess that means No more talking out of place No more arguing Won’t put a foot wrong And we speak I’ll Tell you my life is love and light Even if it don’t feel right Make sure I look fine on the outside That’s what matters most Will the picture stay in place If the wind blows All of the lines that I’ve been rehearsing Tell you I’m happy inside Even if it don’t feel right Guess I’ve got Only myself to blame and rely on Can’t always stay strong Can’t please everyone I don’t wanna let you down again So I won’t complain ‘Cause you have more than enough Shit on your plate So when I’m feeling Lonely and blue Won’t call you to talk I won’t cry Even if it don’t feel right LOSE YOURSELF AGAIN © 2016 KATIE BRIANNA GARFOOT
So you had a hard day And you're needing a way to unwind But you keep on working To forget all you had to leave behind I know you are tired And I know you will try stay awake If you're never sleeping Those are dreams that time can not take I can tell you, that's not the way Don't lose yourself again Let me show you another way Don't lose yourself again Don't lose yourself again You said you were happy Being one step ahead of the pain So you're always searching You can't see what you'll lose, for the gain I can tell you, that's not the way Don't lose yourself again Let me show you another way Don't lose yourself again Don't lose yourself again Don't lose yourself again THORN IN YOUR SIDE © 2016 KATIE BRIANNA GARFOOT
Did I hear you right You got no sleep that night And I'm the reason You couldn't face yourself Why do you have to be Surrounding all my dreams There in the morning And as I fall asleep Hard to forget and walk away You know I have tried So pull me out, I don't wanna be The thorn in your side I try to catch my breath But would you dare believe That I've been holding It in for all this time Maybe you'll want me now Maybe you'll want me more But this I doubt I know that nothing's changed Hard to forget and walk away You know I have tried So pull me out, I don't wanna be The thorn in your side ALL I THOUGHT I'D EVER NEED © 2016 KATIE BRIANNA GARFOOT
I should be asleep I’m wounded and weak Worn from the fight To hold on to ties I thought could not break Am I a fool to hope That when you come home All of my will To leave will be gone And our love will wake ‘Cause it’s too hard to let you go For as long as I remember You are all I have ever known All I thought I’d ever need You are all I thought I’d ever need It’s not in me To be what you need I know you know I’ll never become The wife that you’d like We could work it out But I have these doubts Am I throwing away What I know I want For something I might But it’s too hard to let you go For as long as I remember You are all I have ever known All I thought I’d ever need You are all I thought I’d ever need |
