lyrics

I bin skillfully avoiding the mirror
For half an hour now...
To get paid for filing my nails would be a blessing
But it would get tired out
And what about the hoovering? The washing up?
Taking the dog to the park?
Doing the work that should've been done a year ago?
Put it in some sort of order or some sort of small list
And what needs to be done is done
Everything else is all

What is in you that I want, that I can't find in myself?

Freezing my bollocks off, not that I have them
Just because I feel I don't deserve more
Being invisible, a good friend or contact
Does not replace the reverie we have in store
Need to believe that
Need to trust in me, need to trust in you
Got to have faith in everything we are
Receiving your letter does not make up for all the times you loved me
All the times you left me

What is in you that I want, that I can't find in myself?

Stripped down to nothing, I lay on the bed
You held my feet in your hands
You told me you'd never take advantage
Never use it against me
Not knowing of my plan
To ruin it entirely
Bet you feel a bit stupid, now
Feel like you took advantage, now
Like a caveman, all fired up?
My plea to you: Go beyond it
Stake your life on it
Don't shy away like the coward you usually are

What is in you that I want, that I can't find in myself?

Her more recent work is a mixture of synth pop, acoustic lyrical folk, alternative and indie-ish.
