Lyrics & music Copyright © 2017 Gareth Kitch
My hand swipes the dust
Wipes it away from the stone
Reveals the marks
The forgotten moans
Monuments
And pedestals
And legacies
And unforgettables
All I feel is
Life will be better better
All I feel is
Life will be better better
When i Stumble through the door
And All I bump into is
All those things I never had
All those things i think i miss
That's how I wake up
That's how I go to sleep
That's how I keep time
But now i must make my leap
All I feel is
Life will be better better
All I feel is
Life will be better better
I will be better better better (x3)
Better than me
I'll trace a path with fireflies
I'll wipe away the legacies
I'll cry a tearless lullaby
I'll sail a million seas
I'll bring it crashing down
Just to build it up again
That's how I'll tame forever
That's how I'll crack the seed
All I feel is
Life will be better better
All I feel is
Life will be better better
II will be better better better (x3)
Better than me
When the smoke clears
No-one's standing here
No loss no fear
Just nothing at all
II will be better better better (x3)
Better than me

Big Bird

Copyright © 2019 Gareth Kitch
Wake up
Take a pill
Go back to sleep
There's nothing to see here
Take a cruise
Get on you yacht
Play some golf
Eat it all up
Tame the beast
Feel her breast
Bring and buy
There's a needle in your eye
Wake up
Take a pill
Go back to doing
What your best at
I hear the humming
I hear the humming
I hear the humming
Of the big bird coming down
I see it coming
I see it coming
I see it coming
All over this big bad world
Make up
Cherry pop
License renewed
Climbing to the very top
Terror calls (for a)
Wrecking ball
You know you've given up
On everybody's wishes
Take your lease
Off the leash
Make your bread
Without an ounce of dough
Write a check
Without a pen
And all you have to do is
Do it again and again
I hear the humming
I hear the humming
I hear the humming
Of the big bird coming down
I see it coming
I see it coming
I see it coming
All over this big bad world
I´m feeling nothing

Cruel Day
Lyrics Copyright © 2017 Gareth Kitch
Cruel day, cruel day, cruel day
You lost your job, you lost your fiancée
Cruel day, cruel day, cruel day
But how could you have it any other way
What would you have to tell your kids
at the end of your life
If you couldn't draw on all that strife?
It's as if you just want to live
for the sake of the pain
Bang your head against the wall again
and again
and again oh
Cruel day, cruel day, you say
Why did you buy that stupid bouquet of roses?
Cruel day, cruel day, cruel day
But without regrets what would you have to say?
Maybe that the world is
beautiful......
Yeah, it's alright.
That it might fall into place
if you just decide
to think another way.
Ah but the whole world is in your head
and there's no way you can put it to bed
And you're falling
and you're falling
And the smoke is choking you
But there's no fire below
So why don't you just say
It's a cool day, cool day, cool day
And tomorrow is just another day
Yeah, it'll be alright, alright.

Devil in Flames
Lyrics Copyright © 2017 Gareth Kitch & Sergio Morales
I´m just waiting for the train
I hold under the hail
in my wet shoes
See reflections in the pond
a time too far too gone
cold wind over dead roofs
You said I was blind
I think you had it right
but who cares now
now that all I´ve got is under this old coat
When the sun loses its colors and fades
I hope I´ll get the answer
I hope I´ll get the answer
and I´m feeling like a devil in flames
spinning like a dancer
and running out of chances
Yes, graffiti on the wall
the tickets on the floor
some coins over the railway
No, the last time you said no
I just broke down the door
to get rid of the headache
You said I was blind
I think you had it right
but who cares now
now that everything I´ve got is under this old coat
When the sun loses its colors and fades
I hope I´ll get the answer
I hope I´ll get the answer
and I´m feeling like a devil in flames
spinning like a dancer
and running out of chances

Head 4 The Sun
07:23

Lyrics & music Copyright © 2017 Gareth Kitch
As long as I don't tell you
It means I still haven't let you go
And though I'm not a navigator
I'll chart my course alone
And leave you high and dry
Cos we've ended up we begun
I have to close my eyes
And head for the sun
And head for the sun
I know you know what time I was online
I know you were searching for my reasons
But you have to cut your ties
And bring it on home
Just leave me alone
And leave me dry
Cos we've ended up we begun
So I have to close my eyes
And head for the sun
And head for the sun
How can I tell you I've moved on?
What if you go crazy and can't carry on?
But I just can't do what's right any more
I have to sail a new sea
I have to climb on board
I'm lying on my raft
Looking up at the pale blue moon
And if I peer into the water
I only see me
Reflecting up at me
But I know you're high and dry
I know you're moving on
And when I open my eyes
I'll head for the sun
I'll head for the sun

JANUARY RIVERSIDE
Lyrics Copyright © 2017 Gareth Kitch
[INTRO]
Ice crystals melt
Take the clock downstream
January riverside
Things unseen
We found a place
Where the water won't go
January riverside
Lost in the flow
The water flows in
It always achieves
Its natural place
In the scheme of things
My veins they were pumping
My heart beat so strong
January riverside
Where my body belongs
[INTRO]
The house caught by branches
The fish caught in motion
The retaining wall
Built for no reason
I sat you down
Told you about the disease
January riverside
Your tears felt the breeze
The acorns they fell
The leaves they dropped clues
January riverside
Where the world fell for you
But the moments that matter
You have to retain
Like a refuge
In some lost domain
The morning it rose
The nighttime it fell
January riverside
All's well that ends well.

Natural Leader
Lyrics and music copyright © 2019 G C Kitch all rights reserved.
Now that the girl I love has gone away
Who's gonna pick my zits?
Who's gonna love me to bits?
Some perfect man has taken her from me
Wish I'd been the one on top
Wish I'd been better before the chop
The Natural Leader's got the best part of me
But worst of all he's got the one I need
I wish that I could live without her love
I wish I'd been a wiser man before the shove
Do they hold hands over the till in the Co-op?
Do they stand and stare
Over the Camembert
Do they live in perfect harmony?
Does he give her things
Only real men can bring?
The Natural Leader's got the best part of me
But worst of all he's got the one I need
I wish that I could live without her love
I wish I'd been a wiser man before the shove
I wish I'd been a wiser man before the shove
The Natural Leader's got the best part of me
But worst of all he's got the one I need
I wish that I could live without her love
I wish I'd been a wiser man before the shove
The Natural Leader's got the best part of me
But worst of all he's got the one I need
I wish that I could live without her love
I wish I'd been a wiser man before the shove

Never Say Forever
Lyrics and music copyright © 2019 G C Kitch all rights reserved.
#ffb370
You've not slept for days
Mind spinning about what he'll say
When you cut the line
Black smoke from an endless train
There's no stopping it now
Never say forever
You can't control the weather
It's now or never
Never say forever
They won't forgive you even
At the end of the line
Too many forks in the road
Too many stalks have grown
From too many seeds
You can't see into the water
But the fish won't drown
When the rain falls on the sea
Never say forever
You can't control the weather
It's now or never
Never say forever
They won't forgive you even
After you fix the line
Never say forever
Or that you'll get back together
You're just kidding yourselves
Never say forever
They won't forgive you even
At the end of time

On Days Like These
03:34

Lyrics and music copyright © 2019 Gareth Kitch all rights reserved.
Are you out of bed yet?
On days like these
It can be hard
Brushed your teeth, got dressed, opened the curtains?
Looking at the rain
Falling in the dark
On days like these
You don't want to think about where he is
On days like these
You've got too many things to do
On days like these
You've just got to pull through
Are you sitting on the bus?
Is it too crowded there?
Today it seems crowded everywhere
And yet you're scared to be alone
Sinking in the sand
Well that's not your style anyway
On days like these
You just can't take it in your stride
On days like these
It's not good enough to just abide
On days like these
But you know that you'll pull through
Oh you know that you'll pull through
Someone's looking at you hard
Drinking at the bar
You don't think it'll go very far

Peaches
Lyrics and music copyright © 2019 G C Kitch all rights reserved.
There's no more roses in the garden
There's no more peaches on the tree
There's no more dreaming bout tomorrow
Cos you're not coming back to me
I had a never ending story
I had a wish and it came true
I had a package on my birthday
But when I opened it the bird just flew
Away
Into the clouds
Forgetting the valleys below
I ain't got nothing in my inbox
My life is online but it's flat
I got a dog to keep me going
But my dog's yearning for a cat
There's no more roses in the garden
There's no more peaches on. the tree
There's no more dreaming bout tomorrow
Cos you're not coming back to me

Splitting The Atom
05:58
|
|||
She has a need to burn her books on the roof
Some people might regard it as quite uncouth
It helps her when she feels bad
It´s one way not to go mad
Karl Marx is looking up at her from the floor
She puts her foot on his face, what a bore
She wants to set him alight
She can´t live without a fight
See the neighbors watching
When it rains it´s pouring
Ashes like confetti
Brain is like spaghetti
She knows that culture is a virus
The devil, the devil is after her
And everything is on fire
She´s splitting the atom
She´s splitting the atom
To stay sane
Picking out flowers from the sun before dawn
She likes to do it when she can´t take anymore
She´s a little bit like that
Just a little bit like that
See the ashes falling
The police are calling
Dancing in the doorway
Standing in the flames…
She knows that culture is a virus
The devil, the devil is after her
And she can prove it all by science
She´s splitting the atom
She´s splitting the atom
To stay sane
INST
Remember what it´s like to be tied up and cold
It´s one way to define the mad from the bold
You just can´t get her to change
Cos she can´t take anymore…
Leaving in the morning
Voices are a-calling
Fly into the sunset
Get out of the rain….
She knows that culture is a virus
The devil, the devil is after her
And everything is on fire
She´s splitting the atom
She´s splitting the atom
To stay sane
