Time’s got no hold on me
You’ve got no hold on me
They’ve got no hold on me
I’ve got no hold on me
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on, me
I’ve got no hold on you
They’ve got no hold you
You’ve got no hold on you
Time’s got no hold on you
Hold on
Hold on, you
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on, me

Start to Begin [2018]
03:30
|

|
Backup all your memories
Put them in a hole
Hide them somewhere safely
So you never lose your soul
Draw the curtains tightly
Don't let the summer in
It all adds up to something
You can't start to begin

It's hard to do what you want to do
Treefella...
It's hard to do what you want to do
Are you listening?
Can you hear me?
There's no place that I would rather be
Than sitting up here in my tree
Broken branches
Building bridges
I've been waiting here impatiently
For you to join me up in my tree
So...
Throw out your goods
Come to the woods
& find yourself a tree
& climb up to the top with me
Oooh weee, I'm up in a tree...
Are you listening?
Can you hear me?
It's nothing like I thought it would be
So I'm hiding up here in my tree
Chop my head off
Count the rings
& let me know just how old I am
Cos lately I feel like an old man
You can chop me up
Cut me down
But I'll be back again
My roots are strong
I stand alone
No time for foolish friends
My wooden heart
Is strong as oak
No medium density
So this is where I'll be
In my tree...

Shaking like a Leaf
Treading paper thin
Softly spoken words
A symptomatic grin
I won’t let you go...

If you fear the fall & fail my friend
You can pick yourself back up again
If the world & weight have worn you down
Don't fool around
Dust yourself down
& start over
If you wake & wonder what went wrong
You can listen to your favourite song
Makes you feel the world can't bring you down
So don't fool around
Dust yourself down
& start over

Birdspotter
I can see
Way up in the
Big tall tree
A little bird & he's singing just for me
Singing out
A lonely song
A timeless melody
Birdspotter
I can hear
A sudden sound in the bushes
Oh so near
It's a little bird & he's singing just for me
Singing out
A lonely song
A timeless melody
Birdspotter
I can see
Way up in the
Big tall tree
A little bird & he's singing just for me
Singing out
A lonely song
A timeless melody

Honey [2018]
04:01
|
|||
|
You are the one
Bright as the sun
Alienated point of view
You lost the plot
& time forgot
To bring me back closer to you
But it's okay, Honey
Yeah, it's alright
I'm just going out my mind...
Spend my days
Doubled glazed
Insulated hide-away
A sticky end
For you my friend
Take us back to better days
But it's okay, Honey
Yeah, it's alright
I'm just going out my mind...

They blew him up...

Just Let it Go [2018]
03:33
|

|
Sometimes it's hard
Sometimes it's tough
Sometimes what you need is never enough
Sometimes there's fear
Sometimes there's love
So breathe slow
Just let it go, my love
Breathe slow
Tonight
Sometimes we give
Sometimes we take
Sometimes everything that you feel is fake
Sometimes we're high
Sometimes we're low
So breathe slow
Just let it go, my love
Breathe slow
Just let it go, my love
Breathe slow
Tonight...

Wait, For it...
Weightlessness...
The people here on earth they are all waiting
& me I just sit staring into space
The lost souls in their rocketships still orbiting the moon
Don't you get your hopes up
They wont be home anytime soon
The wait goes...
On & On & On & On & On...
On & On & On & On & On...
Waiting here for weightlessness
Waiting here for weightlessness

Sometimes, I
Want to
Run & Hide
Run & Hide
Sometimes, I
Want to
Run & Hide
Run & Hide
Away
From you...
Sometimes, I
Get a...
Little bit lost
Little bit lost
So, I
Want to
Run & Hide
Run & Hide
Away from everything that I see
Away from me...
