Lyrics by Andy Jones
Out of Touch
Genres: Indie, Folk
Monday needs to wait As it irritates my condition Which is missing a piece And I want to fall Tuesday’s even worse It’s a blessing and a curse My peace of mind Is on a ledge And my sword is double-edged And my heart just beats right through Oh-oh I’m out of touch And there’s nothing much I can do And my heart just beats right through Oh-oh I’m running out of time To fit the words to the rhyme And my heart just stays in line Wednesday sees the sun Start to rise as one with I It’s been a long reflection As I head in the wrong direction Thursday strikes a chord There’s silver in my sword I feel the light in my eyes And for a while I stem the tide And my heart just beats right through Oh-oh I’m out of touch And there’s nothing much I can do And my heart just beats right through Oh-oh I’m running out of time To fit the words to the rhyme And my heart just stays in line But why?

More Than You Asked For
Genres: Indie, Rock
n a scene with me and you, the light is bright, it’s white, it’s blue but moreover I’ve never heard you say it does, but all the air around you seems to boil over And conversation never dries, it builds and builds, it never dies In occupation we combine, I see all the reasons all the time But you kill dreams that don’t make sense And build machines to leave me dead You got more than – something more than you asked for Sometimes I may reach for your hand, so do what you can You got more than – something more than you asked for In a field of constant sun, with everywhere and everyone in union Distance runs from obstacles and distance runs are made to cause confusion A contribution would be kind, would it change the way you view your life? Differences, just a few, all my answers overdue So take to the stage and finish this song Do what you can, it won’t take long You got more than – something more than you asked for Sometimes I may reach for your hand, so do what you can Strange faces staring and wearing me thin In places my head is starting to spin, starting to spin, starting to spin You got more than – something more than you asked for Sometimes I may reach for your hand, so do what you can You got more than – something more than you asked for So why you alone at all?

Swallows
Genres: Indie, Oldies, Singer-Songwriter
She watches children leave one by one Her swallows migrate to distant suns She's left behind with the simplest view She wished she could go too Stay at home and learn to be strong Listen out for birdsong Making sense of time afraid... Where are the wings that I made? They're in the shadows The dark of night That's where her mind goes When it can't find the light She's in the process of mixing colours to white That's when the swallows fly Home in the spring after a long flight She'll sleep well tonight
