There’s an absence of love
Where there used to be love
There is an absence of love
Where there used to be you

The sun in my eyes
And this song in my head
All this room in this bed
Where there used to be you

There’s an absence of love
Where there used to be love
There is an absence of love
Where there used to be you

So I told him my name
And I held out my hand
I showed him the place
Where there used to be you

With your scent in the air
And your shoes in my room
I lay with him there
Drenched in the memory of you

There’s an absence of love
Where there used to be love
There is an absence of love
Where there used to be you

Where there used to be you
There is an absence of love
Where there used to be you

I make my own way
Em G D Am C Em

Look at you now
Strutting around
Like you own this town
But you don’t own me now
I make my own way now

I said I was wrong
You just slammed the door
And you shut me out
I don’t belong to you now
I make my own way now
Get along without you now

I make my own way baby

Leak it to the media

Everyone’s gay

I believed

The little place

If god was a real thing
What the hell was he thinking?
When he held out his hand to me
When he laid out his plan for me
Did he look down on that little baby
And say “This is your destiny”?

God said:
“I’m gonna give you love
All the love
Fill you right up with love
Not healthy love like puppy love
But desperate aching toxic love
Crawling on the floor love
Begging him for more love”

“And I’m gonna make you crazy
Broken and crazy
Not the kind of girl they’ll want to marry”

If god were a real thing
What the f**k was he thinking?
He sent lovers to hurt me
Every one of them burnt me
He sent me the cruelest
Most heartless
Loveless Fu***ng bastards
Made of ice cold stone
So I face every dawn on my own

God said:
“I’m gonna give you love
All the love
Fill you right up with love
Not healthy love like puppy love
But desperate aching toxic love
The kind you can’t resist love
Bleeding from the wrist love”

“And I’m gonna make you crazy
Broken and crazy
Not the kind of girl they’ll want to marry”

If God was a real thing
What the hell was he thinking?

At the end of the day
You can turn the page
And I will take the blame
I will take the shame

I didn’t love you anyway
I just loved the lies you’d say
But you took them all away
Now I will take the blame
I will take the shame
And you’ll forget my name

I can’t breathe
Under the weight of all this silence
I can’t speak
For all the words we left unsaid
I can’t breathe
Under the weight of all this silence
It’s killing me
I can’t breathe
In all this silence
Silence

At the end of the day
Take back the crumbs you gave
And I will take the blame
I will take the shame

I didn’t love you anyway
I just loved the games you played
But you took them all away
As I begged you to stay
I begged you to stay
Now you’ll forget my name

I can’t breathe
Under the weight of all this silence
I can’t speak
For all the words we left unsaid
I can’t breathe
Under the weight of all this silence
It’s killing me
I can’t breathe
In all this silence

I met him in the eye of a cyclone
I offered him my love
When he had none
And I was blind
To his beautiful lies

Opened up my heart
And gave it to him
Opened up my arms
And I let him in to my life
With his beautiful lies

I wrapped him in my sheets
I wrapped him in my dreams
And I fell so deep into his fire
Beautiful liar
Beautiful liar

I’m trying so hard to forget him
Some days I wish I never met him
Cause I’m still entwined
I’m his beautiful lies

I wrapped him in my sheets
I wrapped him in my dreams
And I fell so deep into his fire
Beautiful liar
Beautiful liar

Spending all my time
Trying to work out what was real
Trying to work out
If he even knows how to feel
He’s stone cold Ice
And stone cold lies

I wrapped him in my sheets
I wrapped him in my dreams
And I fell so deep into his fire
Beautiful liar
Beautiful liar

And so it comes to this
As you point out my disobedience
Deny my existence
And I’ll go back to him

And after all this time
As we watch the world burn
You said you would make things right
But nothing’s right

Everything aches
Everything breaks
Everything aches
Everything breaks

So it comes to this
You’ll delete my messages
Find yourself a new mistress
And I’ll go back to him

Why’d you turn your face away?
What is it you want to say?
Slice me open
Then walk away
Leaving me bleeding
Aching and bleeding

Now you won’t even look at me
And you want to re-write history
Erase the pages that were you you and me
Leaving me bleeding
Aching and bleeding

Here’s to us
My darling I raise my glass
To you, I drink a toast
Here’s to your ghost

The ghost of your fingers on my flesh
Your fingers running through my hair
Your fingers gripped around my neck
You left me bleeding
Torn open and grieving

I spent my whole life in recovery
I don’t even know what normal is meant to be
But I stood up and played the role you expected of me
And you left me bleeding
Aching and bleeding

You left me bleeding
Torn open and grieving

For my sister 💕
Saints and Wh**es and Thieves and Kings

In collaboration with Mandy Boots and Sarah Campbell

I slept beneath a million stars
And I picked open all my scars
And I sat there and watched them bleed
And I cried until I could not breathe

I tried to make sense of the strife
And why she didn't get to live her life
And why, though I searched the Earth
I couldn’t find her

I felt the weight of a hundred million years
I felt the pain of a hundred million tears
I followed the footsteps of men
And the idols they lay before them

And I tried to find my own way
But I struggled to find my own faith
Cause I don’t believe in God
…But I do truly believe in love

In the end it is thus...
we all return to dust

Saints and wh**es and thieves and kings
dust in the wind
Saints and wh**es and thieves and kings
dust in the wind
Saints and wh**es and thieves and kings
dust in the wind

I slept beneath a million stars
And I picked open all my scars
And I sat there and watched them bleed
And I cried until I could not breathe

I tried to make sense of the strife
And why she didn't get to live her life
And why, even though I searched the Earth
I couldn’t find her

In the end it is thus...
we all return to dust

Saints and wh**es and thieves and kings
dust in the wind
Saints and wh**es and thieves and kings
dust in the wind
Saints and wh**es and thieves and kings
dust in the wind

Love song to my besties 🎶

Here we go again
You and I for another round
We put that same old record on
This is familiar ground
Here come our favourite arguments
Insults we’ve already heard
The air hangs cold with stinging words
The boundary lines have blurred

When the smoke all clears and the fat lady sings
Nobody wins
Nobody wins
We play “I hurt you and you hurt me”
And nobody wins at the end of the day

After every dark night
We have to face the day
And in that cold, hard light
We both regret what we say
But we can’t take it back baby
I wish there was a way
But that’s the bed we made, darling
Now that’s where we lay
That’s where we lay

When the smoke all clears and the fat lady sings
Nobody wins
Nobody wins
We play “I hurt you and you hurt me”
And nobody wins at the end of the day
