This classy, catchy number by the artist from Scotland now based in Newcastle Upon Tyne comes from her second EP, Summer Up North, featuring her distinctive, husky voice and clever mix of electronica and guitar. More of her work can be enjoyed and purchased on Bandcamp.
I walk these streets like a trip to the beach
Can’t afford a slip of the teeth,
take a bite outta me my blood
runs blue is it true that you talk about me when you’re asleep
keep having dreams that I’m being seen.
She says hello but I don’t know who she is
I say hi back and I don’t think that she notices
I’ve got a bad brain for staying and focusing
Taking in, information maybe I stop listening.
Drop head avoid your eyes
When I’m feeling better
I can’t understand why
it won’t last forever.
Caught up in a landslide
standing in the rain
like there’s no other weather.
Drip drop on my window pain
You talk like I’m insane
Skyward to the gutter
I don’t think you notice
But it doesn’t matter.
You took a trip down a two take track
It took so long that I thought that
you’d never come back
Grand theft auto caught you
hanging around out back
Smoking tabs on the slack
Heart on the slab, dark contrast, your drawback.
You shower cold to protect your mind
I take you home to protect your sight
You got a soft shell and a hard fight hard try,
try fly in a straight line but you
keep on ending at the start line.
Drop head avoid your eyes
When I’m feeling better
I can’t understand
why it won’t last forever.
Caught up in a landslide
standing in the rain
like there’s no other weather.
Drip drop on my window pain
You talk like I’m insane
Skyward to the gutter
I don’t think you notice
But it doesn’t matter.
