Thought I’d never do it - but ya loving got me through it - And it’s all falls down………. I had a ghost in my heart and you torn it apart girl - Turned my head around…………… Now I’m never again cursed to taste the taste of a - Wasted day with you…………. This love is - Every shade but blue…………. And it’s you I’m looking to………… Oh say you’ll be more than just a part time - Lover!………….. Ohhh woah………… We’ll keep this feeling locked down under - Covers………. Hmmm hmmmm………….. Just don’t go leaving me………. For another!…………….Ugh!!!………. And, You wont ever have to - Suffer!!……………… Cos - You’re everything I……..….. Want!…………. Ooooh……. Hoooh……. Hooo……. And you’re all that I - Need!!!!!…………. Eeeeee………… Heeee………….…… Eeeh!!!!……….. You’re all that I……..….. Want!…………. I want ya - Ooooh……. Hoooh……. Hooo……. And everything I’ll - Need…………. Mmmmmm…….. Hmmmm…… Hmmm…………… After you said you loved me……… Baby………. The madness left my mind……. Oh I!!!………….. Oh you could be - Any, many, any, man’s rainbow…… Woah!………… But I’m - Just so very happy, you’d be - Mine………… Oh even when the rain’s falling, it’s not problem at all when - I hear you voice calling, I’ll be crawling all fours - until - I reach you - My, love………… Ahhh huhhh uhhhh………… For irony can be appauling but as long as you’re sure - I’ve got the key for the lock let my love open the door - Aint no point in stalling, nahhh now!!!!…………… We’ll make this perfect somehow!…….. Oh say you’ll be more than just a part time - Lover!………….. Ohhh woah………… We’ll keep this feeling locked down under - Covers………. Hmmm hmmmm………….. Just don’t go leaving me……….

Oh the boy aint nothing but a bitter little quitter!...... Oh no….. Still too young but you feel so old - Aint having fun since life turned cold - Shits getting heavy now you speak so bold - Tired of waiting for the box to unfold - Thinking different these days with your nice new beard - Seeking new ways friends say you've gone weird - Diving head first, into things you once feared - Cos life's too short to get caught in the heard - Hear hear - Hard times are near……… We've been going too fast to out steer…….. Dear dear - Dearie me………….. I'm caught in the head lights too blind to see………… Said I don't dance but I'll dance with you - Fighter not a lover but I'd romance for two - Bugaboo I do hope I aint buggin you… Cos all I really wanted was a hug or two………. Promise I'll never go on like a thug or fool, I ditched dem days dere back in the old school……. Bun a tool cos blood stains aint cool All I need's a lil love and I'll bring it back to you……. Ooohh……………….. It's true…………… We all need - love….. love….. love!………. We do………… And dahh dahhh dooo…………. I'm telling you!………. I need a little love……… love………. From you……….. Little bit of love, little bit of hope, Champagne here and there with a pinch of the dope Living bitter sweet mixing lemons with coke, It's a, slippery slope and the avalanche is close………. Closed off so them men can't hurt you…….. All they do's disturb you, use up then burn you Left desperate for anything new…….. We all dare to dream but it seems only the nightmares come true……. Hear hear - Hard times are near……… We've been going too fast to out steer…….. Dear dear - Dearie me………….. I'm caught in the head lights too blind to see………… Ooohh……………….. It's true…………… We all need - love….. love….. love!………. We do………… And dahh dahhh dooo…………. I'm telling you!………. I need a little love……… love………. From you……….. Pack my bags, and roll my zone…… Hit the road and find my home…….. You know!!!…….…… We are the only one's who'll know……… Break my back and bruise my bones - Till I find a heart to call my own!!……….. Stay afloat!…………. Been treading water - don't ya know…………….. Find my grind - kick start my soul………. Get high again when I feel low………. Heat up when peeps go cold - Sick ah tip toe-ing round overload….. Pack my bags, and roll my zone…… Hit the road and find my home…….. You know!!!…….…… We are the only one's who'll know………

No it can't be true - no it can't be you - Cos what ya do boo's borderline voodoo…. It's all a who's who…….Gimme a clue or two, Cos I woke up to white lies and now I'm feeling true blue Finding the time to lose control….. girl gimme dat - Mind, body, melody, rhythm and soul Hennessy and hedony we be burning a bowl - Read about it in the papers when it's time to roll Cos when I'm gripping it, ripping it - you be sipping on the rose Dripping down my clothes babe, hit it on the low hey Never one to bun a ton but still………….. You make making me feel so high without taking a pill - Murderer!……………….. Taking lives in the night, Now a young heart's just another star in the sky…………. Bleeding out till my veins run dry, Cos I, Walked the line one, two, many a time………… You mislead me………………….. [Mmmmm hmmm……………..] My darling, you deceive me……………….

Cah my world quit spinning since you bid me good riddance Now this feeling I'm feeling, for real it far from healing, Plenty more fish in the sea but this reel aint appealing I was wheeling and dealing now it's your kisses I'm stealing, Begging and pleading see me down on my knees she - Got me right down to a T like Darjeeling - Singing - Dancing on the ceiling when broken wings left us – Squealing…………… Mmmm hmmm……………. The pain I'm concealing becomes the truth she's revealing, Shallow breathing when in too deep reading - Between these blurred lies that we're left with………. My heart chest was empty till you stepped in - bless this - Pumped the breaks now we skidding wild outta control Wonder if you'll rise above as I fall below………….. We'll both burst to flames then freeze in the cold Somewhere inside the oldest story ever told I'll………… I must be crazy!……………….. [Yeah……………..] Here ah thinking…………….. You could be my lady…………….. Picturing an off-white wedding…… Mmmm hmmm……… Hands on my head and……………. And I'ma beggin'………… You, you, you,you Do, do,what you do….. To me……… Till I can't breath……. I beg you please….. And I can't….. see…… Another way to be……. With you in my life baby……….. You mislead me………………….. [Mmmmm hmmm……………..] My darling, you deceive me……………….

He said………. She said……… Nah she said………… He said?…………. He said, baby I got no time to lose - My tears run red you've been making me blue - Giving me nothing in return oh I got loving for two - Just another brother undercover spying on you…….. Ooooh…….. This situation tastes so bitter - Frustration, aggravation with a skinful of liquor - Mama aint raised no quitter, she's seen badder and bigger, Pictures of you covered in glitter's giving me jitters, The cover flow on your Facebook's sending me shivers - I quiver every time I miss a picture post on twitter - Baby I'm all alone wontcha be my sitter - I feel the rain come pitter patter good riddens to the - Sunny days that I once knew……… Hey…… Desaturated my technicolour to 50 Shades Of Grey - She said, honey pie I got no fuse for games, I stayed the same boy it's you that changed……..Hmmm - Had enough of he said, she said - We said…….. We'd be better than that……… Baby!……. Raise a glass to the last laugh……. It's all the past, but we're taking it back - lately…… My minds been right on you!……… Ooooh hooo……… But what’s new?……… Not you……………. Oooooh……… Did I - Speak too soon?…………. [Sayyyyy what???!!!]………. She said - Let me know where I stand and I’ll find where to lie - My weary old head to rest down for the night…….. One of - Pity is the plight that set my heart alight - With a flame burning looking like your love insides – Am I - Coming or going? - Barely give me a clue - Aint the fucking foggiest of what the hell I’m to do - Seven steps from heaven when I’m romancing with you - Then it’s a step back again dancing the tango for two - My feet are tired and my mind none too strong……… Ahh - Suicidal but I’m hangin’ on………….. Cos all your ranting’s left me panting wheezing out of breath - With your love like a cobra squeezing my soul to death - Back it up honey don’t rinse my patience We had a clean slate then you had to go and stain it again - Spose all is well that ends well my friend - I hope - We’ll be okay but I guess it depends…….. Damn…….. Had enough of he said, she said - We said…….. We'd be better than that……… Baby!……. Raise a glass to the last laugh……. It's all the past, but we're taking it back - lately…… My minds been right on you!……… Ooooh hooo……… But what’s new?……… Not you……………. Oooooh……… Did I - Speak too soon?…………. You can dump me via Facebook!!!!!……… Yeah!!!……….. Or let me go over text!!!!!!!………. Oh yes!…………… Either way, any day, place or time - Baby…………. Just tell me the deal - and I’ll be - Blessed………….. She was my best friend’s sister and another friends ex - Seeing you now and then turned into a series of texts - And ultimately became attraction between the opposite sexes - You’re an older girl again guess I aint learning my lesson……… Whenever my heart sings I hope you’ll hear………… But you steer clear…………..Damn…….. That look in your eye - yeah you’re up to something - So I get ah whispering sweet nothings - in your ear - I say something romantic, sweet and ethereal…… Mmmm,…………… And then I spoil it all - By saying touch my jacket can you guess what it’s made of? Yeah………it feels like boyfriend material……… Killing the vibe like serial……….. Oh this situation’s a big bowl of wrong - Always got me holding on till the end of the song - Slow dancing in the fast lane like Morrissey hun….. Had enough of he said, she said - We said…….. We'd be better than that……… Baby!……. Raise a glass to the last laugh……. It's all the past, but we're taking it back - lately…… My minds been right on you!……… Ooooh hooo……… But what’s new?……… Not you……………. Oooooh……… Did I - Speak too soon?…………. He said, she said………… Mmmmm hmmmm…………… He said, she said……….. Aint nobody got time for that shit……….. Oh no!..... He said she said……….. He said, she said……… Mmm hmm…… He said, she said, we said, we said! – We’d be better than that……………

about

Here's the 2nd of at least 12 original E.P projects I'll be releasing this year. There's a bit of a return to my early days of making music as there's a couple of rap and hip hop tracks. I decided to call this "Pareidolia" as the songs are mostly about thinking you see something in a relationship and / or a situation only to realise your mind is just playing tricks on you..... Roughly.......

I produce everything including drums ect from scratch with Logic Pro x in my home studio,
