No I can't find a reason to wake up on time anymore. My dreams are so full of wonder whilst real life keeps making me wonder why it's so hard to make these dreams come true. Is it too much to ask? Is there too much to do? Am I lazy? I won't let it phase me… Oh things go wrong but make us strong and we learn to love the things we have. One day we'll have something in our hearts that we'll hold in our hands… …but until then wash off the dirt, look around but keep on smiling in hope that one day it will be found because we are the creators of our bright sides and silver linings. We try to fly when we fall. We try to aim big but we're small. We try to conquer the world when we're young. Hey! Now, I just keep on moaning and they're getting sick to death of me. Oh I need to change my whole outlook and hope that in time that I see that when there's pain there's strength and over time I can carry on as if I have a normal life but; who's to really say what is normal and what's clinically insane? Oh life goes wrong and we are quick to point our guilty fingers… And one day we'll admit that we are the same and we are to blame and maybe one day we'll be on our way. …but until then wash off the dirt, look around but keep on smiling in hope that one day it will be found because we are the creators of our bright sides and silver linings. We try to fly when we fall. We try to aim big but we're small. We try to conquer the world when we're young. Life catches up with us all, it pushes our backs to the wall but we can be anything we want. You're as young as you feel as long as you feel alive, alive. You're as young as you feel as long as you feel alive. As long as you feel alive… We try to fly when we fall. We try to aim big but we're small. We try to conquer the world when we're young… and at the end of our lives at least we can say that we tried to conquer the world and be all that we could be. We try to conquer the world…

You say we're not that different. Well, I tell you I think different. I've got my head screwed on whilst yours is on backwards. You were my only friend but that doesn't matter. You're stuck in a tiny little hole and you will rot away all on your own 'cause you can't get out, you can't see the world and you can't go anywhere without your girl. You're wrong 'cause you're the one who's "broken". Yes, you were my only friend and I'm not gonna pretend that you've always been bad to me (were my only friend) but you'll always be the same, (were my only) no you're never gonna change. (Never gonna change) Now I know, now I know, who you truly are. You have proved to me you won't get that far because no-one likes a dickhead (no-one really like you) and you're the biggest one I've ever met. No I'm not 'Mr.Innocent' but we're in a strange predicament - I'm moving on and you'll soon see that you've lost a friend over jealousy. Sometimes it hurts, I'm not gonna lie...you were my only friend for sometime. But the secret that only you and I knew was that little old me was your only friend too and you're wrong 'cause you're the one who's "broken". Yes, you were my only friend and I'm not gonna pretend that you've always been bad to me (were my only friend) but you'll always be the same, (were my only) no you're never gonna change. (Never gonna change) Now I know, now I know, who you truly are. You have proved to me you won't get that far because no-one likes a dickhead (no-one really like you) and you're the biggest one I've ever met. You say you said nothing wrong and you didn't mean it. I'm not gonna give in 'cause I am so stubborn. You shouldn't have said what you say you didn't say. It wasn't what you said, it was what you said afterwards - the barrage of assault that you've just let build inside was ripping you to shreds. Oh but you could never hurt me 'cause my love for you disappeared when you started to ignore me I just focused on seeing clear. Now it's over. I'm not gonna pretend that you were my only friend 'cause I've always had more than you and now it's over. Now it's over.

Moser 04:36
MOSER Oh when did I become a monster? There's so much pain, so much pain I want to cause. It's building up inside of me and I don't want to see it unleashed. It's taking all the breath from me and stealing my sleep. Will someone call my Doctor and tell him it's an emergency, oh it's an emergency… Will someone come and tape my soul together? I've been broken a long time, I've a got the fever. I'm feeling empty like a ghost town. I've been trying so hard to bite my tongue. Oh when did I become so angry? The tiniest of things can make me wanna punch a whole through a wall. I fucking hate myself today, I fucking hate the things that I see. I really hope this state will pass 'cause this can not be me. Will someone come and tape my soul together. I've been broken a long time, I've a got the fever. I'm feeling empty like a ghost town. I've been trying so hard to bite my tongue. There's little beasts in smaller cages screaming out for help because I'm dead inside. I treat others how I'd like to be but when there's no respect I just can't help but slide to that darker side. Will someone save my soul? Please save my soul. I am not a monster. I don't want to be a monster, No, I am not a monster. (I want to punch my way through walls and chew on broken glass just to feel release and see blood of this beast).

Words of a Coward (Part Two) feat. Bru-C When things go bad I will turn my back and I won't stop till I've run ten miles. As the city burns I will take my turn fighting fire with deadwood and oil. Fire with deadwood and oil. Listen, I leave the stage from my hype cheer. People are telling me I've "made it". I'm like, "yeh". I made it from a hobby to a business. it's my wildest dream, or my nightmare. I put my all in - blood, sweat and my tears. Not many make it to the top - it seems quite rare. I want more than a slice of the cake I've been screaming for it like a baby in a highchair. You see this music's my everything. I ignore the flaws and I'm grooming the benefits. Ambitious or naïve? A beautiful gift I pursued? Or the worse thing I ever did? Struggle for money; unaware of the future. Could be a champion or end up a loser. Scared if the system or thirsty for power? These are the words of a coward. Oh but I won't let you walk alone. When things go bad I will turn my back and I won't stop till I've run ten miles. As the city burns I will take my turn fighting fire with deadwood and oil. Fire with deadwood and oil. I'm determined to sore now, moving forward with the force of this raw sound. It aint about the glitz or the glamour - this is nothing but the story of a boy from a small town. Nah, it's not a fairy tale in wonderland. I've been through the pain and the storm; heard the thunder bang. I wanna make the sun shine, live a good life for my fam and put some money in my Mothers hand. But the way I move is hurting me, can't ignore this flickering flame that burns in me but where will I turn if it fails? Never did well at school, never been to university. So what's it gonna be? Successful or end up a mockery? Gotta reach for my goals. Gotta do what I want gotta be what I wanna be. Time waits for no one. Make each day count or stroll on. You have the strength to be something spectacular, don't trapped in the routine of the same old. Embrace in your health, conquer the dreams that have been caged in yourself. This life is amazing as hell, live free don't get trapped in the maze it is hell. Go straight for the belt life's hard and cold but a charge will bolt through your heart and soul. I've achieved so much but I've got to push, I do so much in a day but it's not enough. Belly is empty like Oliver's, like many I know so well. Kids think life is a total fail just because school didn't go so well - but it's no that. We all take wrong turns and get knocked back just remember you're walking a long path. There's time to change it but when time is wasted life is basic. That's why I hate it. This pressure is holding me down. I feel like throwing in the towel. When things go bad I will turn my back and I won't stop till I've run ten miles. As the city burns I will take my turn fighting fire with deadwood and oil. With fire. These are the words of a coward. These are the words.

Saviour 03:17
Saviour Everyone is staring at me as I walk through the centre of town. Everyone is laughing at me round their table singing their songs. I don't need your pity. I just need a friend who can hold me up me up with out taking what's left of my soul, but I guess I know that it's too much to ask for…but then there's you. So here you are again to save the day. I can push you to the edge but you don't run away. Oh you are my saviour. Oh you are my saviour. Everyone can see through my smile and they're waiting for the moment that I break down. Everyone is pushing me out, they've seen through my lies and my eyes are betraying my mind. I just need a friend who can make me smile and forget about the rest. Life's too short to be alone, I feel alone. But then there's you. So here you are again to save the day. I can push you to the edge but you don't run away. Oh you are my saviour. Oh you are my saviour. I love you more than life itself. So here you are again to save the day. I can push you to the edge but you don't run away. Oh you are my saviour. Oh you are my saviour. Oh you are my saviour. Oh you are my saviour. You are.

Huge thanks to Will Hills for taking the time to record the E.P with me. If it wasn't for you, Will, this E.P wouldn't have happened.
Thank you Charlie for the E.P photography and for all the support you have given me throughout the last year of writing - I know I've not been easy to be around.
Thanks to Bru-C for featuring on 'Words of a Coward' & writing some down-to-Earth, hard-hitting lyrics. You really made the song the best it could be.
