You pull on a leather
As you strut out on the stage
You swagger in expensive boots,
Your neck heavy with chains
You smile down at a wide-eyed girl
Do you know you’ve made her day?
And you give your soul for the next three hours
Even in the pouring rain

Adoring eyes look up to you
You are their promised land
And in return you give all of yourself,
For them, you’ll be that man
But in the quiet still of the aftermath
When they have all gone home
They’ll wrap their arms around their loved ones
While you lay in a cold bed alone

I want to pull you up
Out of the darkness of your mind
I want to put my arms around you
And drive your demons blind
You are the heart that beats within me
The sun that warms my day
And I wish that I could tell you but
You won’t hear the words I say


Now between the lines of this love song
And just between you and me
I am the very reason
I’m what has made you be
I’ve put you on that pedestal
High up where we can’t see
You are that golden badass Rockstar
You sacrificed yourself for me.

Fan Girl

You laughed at the night
Let it seep under your skin
Lost sight of where you were going
Trying to please your minions

Now, the voices in my head
Fill me with dread
I can’t escape, you hold the key
The only way is anarchy

Ha Ha Ha Ha

So, where is your humanity
Was it worth the price that you will pay
You had a soul but you gave it away
Now all your dreams have turned to grey

As you look at me now
Do you see what you’ve done
Do hear the words you howled
Feel my scars on your precious skin

Well, you can watch my bruises burn
Burn Burn Burn Burn

Yeah, look where we are
A night without a star
Are you looking deep within
Or are you a fxxxing mannequin

Yeah, the voices in my head
Are screaming out, ‘Repent’
There’s no escape, you have the key
Which way is it gonna be

Do we face the night
Will you make it right
Do we face the night
Will we win this fight

I Can See You

I can see you
There’s no point in hiding away
I can see beyond the pale
I can see you hiding there

You think that you’re safe where you are
Locked up tight behind those iron bars
That you built all around your soul
You created a place where no-one can go

But I see you
Oh yes I do
I see your
Heart beating true
I want to hold your hand in mine
Tell you it’s gonna work out fine

No-one knows how to find you but I
Know what’s going on behind those cold steely eyes
One day you’ll give me the key
And I’ll watch that blue steel melt

Oh yes I will now
Oh yes I will
You’re gonna be so f***ing hot
There won’t be no messing about, no
Cos I see you
I see you
There’s no point in hiding away
I can see beyond the pale
I can see you hiding in there
But I won’t be going anywhere

If you let me in I promise you this
You’ll know from our very first kiss
There’ll be no regrets, no sorrow or heartbreak
Just pure love until the break of day

Oh oh now

I can see you
Oh yes I can
Do you see me
Like I know you can
I can see you hiding in there
Come on out and find me, I dare

I can see you
Stop hiding there
I can see you
You you you you
I can see you
Yeah
I can see…

I Can See You

I Can See You

I’m lost at sea on a boat that is drifting
No oars or compass to guide or remind me
I stare at the clouds and pray for divine intervention
A storm is brewing, the air thick with tension

I look to the left, the sea stretches for miles
I turn to the right and I see your smile
I hug my knees close, right up to my chin
How will this end, how does it begin

There’s a storm brewing and I’m lost
All at sea with a storm brewing
Lost and confused, I don’t know what to do
Should I turn and run or should I return

On a sea once calm and kissed by the sun
I see a reflection from a day of perfection
But that can’t last, even when you hold on for dear life
You’re forced to make choices and live with the consequences

I hear you now, above the white horses
I should have listened harder, made some noise of my own
I’m swirling around in an angry ocean
We loved so hard, it tore us apart

I don’t think there’s any coming back from that

There’s a storm brewing and I’m lost
All at sea with a storm brewing
Lost and confused, I don’t know what to do
Should I turn and run or should I return

Where have you gone, will I see you again
Where are you now, are you happy within
Are your warm arms wrapped around someone else
No matter what, I wish you the best, for all of the rest

There’s a storm brewing and I’m lost
All at sea with a storm brewing
Lost and confused, I don’t know what to do
Should I turn and run or should I return

Lost

I’m sorry if I hurt you
It was never meant to be that way
I forgot us just for a moment
Now I don’t know if you feel the same

I would like to hold you in my arms
And tell you that it will be okay
I wanna tell you that I’m right here
And now I’m never going again

Will you keep on fighting
Will you keep on trying to find a way
Through all the darkness that surrounds us
Will we get to see the light of day

I would like to hold you in my arms
And tell you that it will be okay
I wanna tell you that I’m right here
And now I’m never going again
I promise

Cos I can’t apologize enough
I want to take away your pain
If there’s anything I can do for us
To make it right again, I will
I know this is down to me, not you
If I could turn back time, you know I would
Just put your hand in mine again
I’ll make it right for us, you’ll see

Just let me love you
Just let me put it right
Just take a chance on us
It’ll all come right in the end

Forgiving Heart

I see you looking at me (across a sea of faces)
Do you like what you see (tell me now)
And when you get that bit closer (closer, closer)
Do you feel the sparks fly between us (Yeah)

Chorus
Oh oh yeah, we are in trouble
Your eyes hold mine
And we are bound together
Oh oh yeah, we are in trouble
I breath you in
And we are lost forever

I bet you think this will be easy (easy, easy)
But you don’t know what you’re up against (up against)
I ain’t no regular pushover (no porcelain doll)
So what you gonna do, are you gonna make the call (make it, make it)

I can feel it seeping through me (you’re in my skin)
Your intoxicating power and your energy (it’s chemistry)
We are drawn together like magnetic forces (it’s meant to be)
And I know that this will go down in both our histories (unforgettable)

Oh oh yeah, we are in trouble
Your eyes hold mine
And we are bound together
Oh oh yeah, we are in trouble
I breath you in
And we are lost forever

Don’t try to fight it, (we have no power against it)
We’re like shooting stars set on a collision course (we’re going to crash)
The heat is already building between us (hot, hot)
And when we touch it’s going to be spontaneous (yes it is)

Hell fire won’t have nothing on us (no, no)
We’re going to burn it down into the dust (into the dust)
When we get together it will heaven on earth (heaven, heaven)
And we both know it could be dangerous (yes we do)

Oh oh yeah, we are in trouble
Your eyes hold mine
And we are bound together
Oh oh yeah, we are in trouble
I breath you in
And we are lost forever

This is going to be explosive (we’re combustible)
What went before will have nothing on us (we’re meant to be)
I can already feel your imprint on my skin (as I breath you in)
Can you feel my touch burning in (it’s permanent)

Oh oh yeah, we are in trouble
Your eyes hold mine
And we are bound together
Oh oh yeah, we are in trouble
I breath you in
And we are lost forever

Free Falling

We are invincible
Sailing above like a cloud full of love
Our feet never touching the ground
How did that come around?

I guess this kind of love
Like a diamond dove
Doesn’t come around too often
It blurs out the world
And quietens the sound
Except the sound of our breathing

I never can understand
Just what you see in me
You could have gone for anyone else
Instead you chose to be here

And now…

Our days are filled with laughter
Our nights are filled with peace
We’re holding hands together
Hearts beating the same beat
Together we are so happy
How do you suppose that to be?

You’ve got to rise above
But keep your feet on the ground
And make the most of every moment
You got to take what you can
And give in return
And act like life won’t happen

We are invincible
We are unbeatable
We are unshakeable
And nothing’s going to take us down

Invincible

The first time I saw you, you were walking by the water
Sun shining off your long blonde hair
In your eyes there was a sparkle, you looked like you were laughing
Chatting to your friends like you didn’t have a care.

Not long after, I saw you at the dance
You looked so beautiful in your long white dress
You moved like a swan with your high heels on
All the guys were flirting, so I didn’t stand a chance

Yeah, here we go…

Chorus
Ellie Mae, what would you say, if I asked you up to dance
Would you smile and take my hand, would you give me just a glance
As we’d move to the music, would you let me hold you close
And if you’d stay and dance another, it’s what I’d love the most

If I take it real slow, will you let me ask you out
We could go to the movies or we could just hang around
I could take you for a drive to a place out of town
Have a picnic in the park, spread a blanket on the ground

Oh yeah, I’d like that

Chorus
Ellie Mae, what would you say, if I asked you up to dance
Would you smile and take my hand, would you give me just a glance
As we’d move to the music, would you let me hold you close
And if you’d stay and dance another, it’s what I’d love the most

You are the girl of my dreams, you shine like an angel
I’d like to meet your folks, break bread at their table
I’d like to take your hand in mine and with our fingers intertwined
I’d place a diamond on it and love you till the end of time

If you’d have me

Oh yeah
Here we go

Ellie Mae, what would you say, if I asked you up to dance
Would you smile and take my hand, would you give me just a glance
As we’d move to the music, would you let me hold you close
And if you’d stay and dance another, it’s what I’d love the most

About Me

Bio

A fan of music of all genres, I write because I love it. I come from a rural background but live and work in the city (at the moment.) I appear sociable and friendly but write because I am actually quite private.

CV/History

I am a professional with two degrees - a BA(Hons) in English and Literature and a B.Sc in Psychology and Media. I also write poetry but have never felt the need to publish it.
