Last Seen
Verse Your name still lights my screen some nights, “Last seen” a quarter after two, A thousand days of photographs We never thought to print, it’s true. I’ve learned the art of looking in Through windows on a morning feed, Watching you be happy there In a life that doesn’t need me. Pre-chorus And I […]
If You’re Gonna Break My Heart, Get in Line
Verse Jimmy said forever on a Saturday night, Sunday morning, Jimmy was nowhere in sight. Bobby said, “Baby, you’re the only one”— Then I met “the only one” at half-past one. Verse Freddy sent roses and a note so sweet, Then sent the same thing to the girl down the street. Mama says, “Honey, someday […]
There’s Still Time For Us
Verse I knew you when the summers lasted forever, Barefoot down those streets we used to know, You were ribbons, scraped-up knees and laughter, I was just a boy who watched you go. Never had the nerve to say I loved you, Maybe I was much too young to know, But something in my heart […]
Plain Sight
Verse You came in through the side door, Like you’d been there before, With your coat across your shoulder And your eyes upon the floor. There was something in the silence, Something hanging in the room, Like a photograph developing And showing up too soon. Pre-Chorus You can change your name, You can change your […]
Where The Wild Hearts Go
Verse I was twenty miles from nowhere With a quarter tank of hope You were laughing at the dashboard Saying, “God, we’re getting old” There was rain across the windscreen There was static on the show And you turned to me and whispered, “Do you know where wild hearts go?” Pre-Chorus I said, I don’t […]
Love is Dead
Intro We used to leave the light on, Like somebody was coming home. Now every window in this city Looks better left alone. Verse I kept your number for a year or two, Not to call, just something people do. Kept one photograph I couldn’t throw away, Then lost it in a move somewhere along […]
Me, You and Mr. Grey
Verse I met her on a Tuesday night She had a smile so warm and bright But when I got there for our date Her cat was sitting by her plate She said his name was Mr. Grey He’d been her love since yesterday Pre-Chorus I thought I had a fighting chance But love was […]

Chrome Summer
Intro Ooo-wah, ooo-wah Sha-la-la, shine on Ooo-wah, ooo-wah Chrome summer all night long Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba… Verse Woke up with the whole world buzzing Little red numbers saying where I’ve been Everybody’s feed keeps flowing But I wanna feel that ocean wind You pulled up in your beat-up ride Silver wheels and a dashboard flame Said, […]
Just Flowers
Verse Stopped by the florist on my way to town, Rows of little colours trying to slow me down. They asked if they were “for someone special”… I just smiled, Said, “Yeah… someone who always loved the wild.” Set them on the passenger seat, buckled safe beside me, Filled the car with something sweeter than […]
Westside Blues
VerseSunset Boulevard, lights used to shine so bright,We were kings of the night, yeah, we owned the city life.Cruisin’ in your Cadillac, radio on blast,Now the streets feel empty, just echoes of the past. Pre-ChorusYou took the spark, the neon lost its glow,LA’s just a picture now, without you in the show.The palm trees sway, […]
Life Without Love
IntroEndless steps beneath the moon,Chasing shadows, chasing you.Breath of night, I’m lost, I’m numb,This hollow race is never done. VerseAll I wanted was a spark,But you left me groping in the dark.Every glance was just a play,Your dance, your prance, your getaway. Pre-ChorusPromises like paper planes,Folded tight, then lost in rain.Compromises cut like knives,A fleeting […]
Dead Birds
VerseYou came through the door, same story again,Mud on your shoes, chaos in your grin.You think it’s a joke, these little things you do,But the cracks in the walls are all because of you. Pre-ChorusYou say opposites attract, that’s the spark we had,But now the flame’s gone cold, and it’s just sad.You brought me dead […]
Pages
Verse The morning light paints this room in gold, A story unfolds as the day grows old. Each line I’ve written, etched deep in my mind, A tale of love, loss, and time left behind. The winds of change, they called my name, And I followed paths I couldn’t tame. But through it all, the […]
Seasons of The Witch
Verse July’s warmth fades into September’s chill, A fleeting moment, yet I feel you still. The days grow short, the nights grow long, You left like summer, but your echo’s strong. The wheel keeps turning, the seasons play, But your memory lingers, it won’t fade away. Once I only saw the months by name, Now […]
