Title: And I. Written by: Eleanor Diplock.

I've always felt such disappointment
in myself, and in some ways you
I've never sought to far
in anything brand new

You're something special,
and you don't know it,
a rarity,
a rarity,
You're something special
and you just don't know it
a rarity,
calamity

chorus: Wrap me tighter with warm wise words,
I'd like to think one day I could be your girl,
and for now my dreams will do,
because in my dreams it's me and you
and forever I shall sleep
and forever hope I'd never wake
In my dreams, my hearts at bay


I try so hard to be a better person,
a warmer heart, a warmer soul
but when you're cold and bitter it's not so certain
a tougher try is no longer working,
I need new energies,
I need positivity,
I'll just sleep, I'll just sleep
in my dreams life's so perfect
in my dreams I can work at it
reality's such a calamity, when you're not around

Chorus

Ending: And I'd hope that you and I could settle down,
I don't care about kids I just want me and you for now,
I know my dreams are a million smiles away,
all I can do is watch them fade away.

Title: Slow, Slowly. Written by Eleanor Diplock.

And when we talk

I seem to forget the world

My regrets left behind

I’m all yours, your girl

I’m your girl

And when we walk,

Side by side and hand in hand

You’re all I need,

I feel in demand

And you know this feeling

Ain’t something you can plan

No, it’s nothing you can plan

Chorus: you make me feel like

Time’s gone,

There are no worries

Now we’re alone

You make me feel like

Summer ain’t gonna be lonely

Because I got you,

And you’ve got me.

Slowly,

Turn my heart,

But don’t dare rip at apart

You’re all I have,

You’re all I need..

Now…

Chorus

Ending : slowly,

Turn my heart,

But don’t dare rip it apart

You’re all I need now

You’re all I have now.

Title: Lost. Written by Eleanor Diplock.

A sudden rush of loneliness,

A feeling we find hard to digest,

Oh, boy, he doesn’t make me smile like you used to

He doesn’t make my eyes flicker like you used to

I never will move on from you,

Oh I,

Never will be gone from you,

A distance so close, yet so far away

The way you made me feel,

I’m trying to replace,

Bury over memories,

But I cannot hide your face…

Chorus: You and I both know,

Flowers bloom and feelings grow

But I’ve grown bored and old

Of feeling oh, alone

I’ve grown bored and old

Of feeling ooh, alone

Covering my eyes with sleep,

I think it’s time to love and weep,

But I can’t forget you,

No, I can’t forget you,

You were everything, everything

A face so brave, but eyes so vulnerable

Your heart so heavy, you must feel it all

But why so vulnerable,

You’ve got to let him go,

Why so vulnerable,

You’ve got to let him go…

Ending : There are times when I’ll be so afraid,

Loneliness is my partner till grave

And you and I both know,

Feelings and flowers bloom and they grow

Title: Oh how. Written By: Eleanor Diplock.

I sacrificed, it all
and like a child, I took a fall
Oh what a shame, to us all
What a shame, I called

I missed your words, of bitterness
I missed your twisted smile
that hooked me like none other for a while
I'd hope and pray,
deep down we'd be safe again,
in our sorrows we build a home,
but there's home without love

Chorus: Oh how to be delicate,
but at the same time so arrogant
I'd wish for you a thousand smiles
to take away your weary eyes
and you would look so beautiful
in my eyes you would shine
you'd beat any other light
above all this,
all of this darkness

And how to be over such broken bodies that shake my bones,
and how to get over such broken hearts that shake me, inside
I never knew I could feel, feel more pain for you, my darling boy
and how to be ashamed of myself,
for being more than just there

chorus

ending: And darling, I'd hope
and darling, I'd pray
but keeping fingers crossed doesn't ever delay rainy days
so tomorrow I will stay.

Title: Gave you all. Written by: Eleanor Diplock.

I gave you all

For you to drag me down

You’re pulling me around

Like a pre-owned rag doll

You’re spinning me around

Like you couldn’t hear a sound

Although I’ll scream from the top of my lungs

You couldn’t stick around

For this love you still haven’t found

But it’s all good, you’ll detour

From your desired tracks

Chorus : I gave you all

Not for you to knock me down

I’ll get back around

As soon as I find my head

I gave you all

Not for you to drag me down,

But I’ll get back up

When I hear the next sound of screams,

A sound of dreams, it seems

Utterly wonderful

(utterly)

Don’t say I’m the girl you’ve found,

Unless you know your sure,

You’re not even aware of the fact

You’re floating amongst the shores

A weightless body,

A heavy mind,

Just float on by,

As I watch you

Chorus

Ending: I gave you all,

I’m not your rag doll,

You can stop dragging me around

Like a lonely little chi-ld

Title: Fool. Written by: Eleanor Diplock.

Stuck in the middle of it all,
and you don't even notice,
you're oblivious and a fool,
self-contained, this time a good call

You call it flirting but it hurts,
when you say those careful words,
I hesitate each time I'm here,
Hesitate whether to bother and care

Chorus: And I'm sick and tired,
of always being sick and tired,
and I'm sick of pretentious people,
they're all around me,
spreading open,
I've lost my breath,
you've gained a token.

You should always know,
that I'm here,
even when you don't even care,
You should know that I'm always here,
even if you don't have the time of the day
to give to yourself,
away,
you give yourself suddenly away,
to private jokes in the bathroom
you're all alone....and

chorus

ending: I'm foolish for caring,
caring so foolishly,
I'd hope for a better way to say
without words on my tongue
how much it hurts,
when you're around.

Title: Little Late. Written by Eleanor Diplock.

alliteration is no replacement for substance

being someone else wont make you feel better

 being with someone who is trying to make something of something that isn’t

will never fill the space

Where you once belonged

You once belonged…

Here

Pretentious People, oh we are

Pretentious people, getting far

(x2)

Chorus: It’s a little late,

To change your ways,

To follow the track

That you once laid

You laid your body down to rest

Don’t be shy, we all progress…

Follow the crowd, they’ll follow you

Pretentious and proud

You’re brand new…

You’re brand new…

And I for one, am not afraid

To be the person I portray

Make what you want of it

Chorus

Ending : It’s a little late to change your ways,

You’re laid down and it’s not the same

Your body doesn’t rest no more.
