Dance My Demon Away

Oh, can you hear my breath?
It falters with every step.
Please don't leave me here.
Don't make me face all that fear
Everything is arising.
Everything has a price.
Oh, words are blinding,
Criticising all I am.
Give me one more chance
I want to dance my demon away.
To dance my demon away.
I met a girl like you.
She whispered all my truth.
But before I could shout
My demon came running out.
Everything is arising.
Everything has a price.
Oh, words are blinding,
Criticising all I am.
Give me one more chance
I want to dance my demon away.
To dance my demon away.
To dance my demon away.

Caroline, why'd you do the things you do?
Caroline, you know you're gonna make it through.
Day by day.
Day by day.
Caroline, take another step away.
Caroline, forget about what people say
Day by day
Day by day.
Take a deep breath (it will be alright)
Have another pill (and you'll be just fine)
It will be over (before your hair turns white)
Keep on moving on.
Keep on moving on.
Caroline, forget about the reason why
Caroline, don't you think you'd better try?

The Game

Come on, doll
Let's rock and roll
Walk on the wild side
Let's place a bet
Let's play a game
Ride a horse
Go insane
Don't wanna think
Don't wanna talk
I just need the night air
We'll write a song
We'll talk in verse
Maybe play truth or dare
Keep it down, don't think out loud
It's only a game.
Keep your words inside your mouth,
You've nothing to gain.
I hear la, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la x 3
Your actions done
Were never fun
The songs I've sung say it so
But you gotta ride the roller coaster
Just once
To know
I took the pill
Swallowed it down
I like it's bitter taste
But this ain't love
And God above
Knows time is something
I won't waste
Keep it down, don't think out loud
It's only a game.
Keep your words inside your mouth,
You've nothing to gain.
I hear la, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la x 3
Yes I admit
I took a hit
Laid down and licked my wounds
Feeling used
Slightly bruised
And you were gone too soon.
I won't relive
And I'll forgive the pain
You put me through
Never regret
Time will shed
Every trace of you.
Keep it down, don't think out loud
It's only a game.
Keep your words inside your mouth,
You've nothing to gain.
I hear la, la, la, la,
Keep your words in your mouth x 4
All I hear is la, la, la, la

How It Goes

So this is how it always goes
End it all as summer began
I've nothing to show
That's how it was planned
I played my part how could you know
I'd be sitting with a broken heart?
I'm losing control
Don't know where to start
Give me words that shake the ground
Smile and say yes, you'll stick around
I see the worst, pray for the best
Lay my fears to rest
That's how it goes.
Tell myself it's just a game.
You've one more bullet, come and take your aim.
I see the worst, pray for the best
Lay my fears to rest
That's how it goes.
I've thrown my cards on down
Spin the barrel, let's play Russian Roulette
What you want can't be found
I'm the think you must forget.
Give me words that shake the ground
Smile and say yes, you'll stick around
I see the worst, pray for the best
Lay my fears to rest
That's how it goes.
Tell myself it's just a game.
You've one more bullet, come and take your aim.
I see the worst, pray for the best
Lay my fears to rest
That's how it goes.
Give me words that shake the ground
Smile and say yes, you'll stick around
I see the worst, pray for the best
Lay my fears to rest
That's how it goes.
Tell myself it's just a game.
You've one more bullet, come and take your aim.
I see the worst, pray for the best
Lay my fears to rest
That's how it goes.
That's how it goes.

Sleep With A Stranger
03:48

I'm the piece of the puzzle you think you're gonna fit
I'm ragged at the edges, I'm crumbling bit by bit.
I'm the china doll you love to hold but only on your own.
I'm the girl that you have fun with, not the girl that you take home.
So pour another glass of poison down
Cut the thoughts that say, "Turn this around".
Keep the candle burning
Turn the music way up high.
It's alright
Think I'll sleep with a stranger tonight
Don't have to use those flowery words we both know what you want.
I need a little loving, I don't want to get caught.
I've got names chasing my footsteps no matter where I hide.
But if you hold me till the morning, I promise I won't cry.
So pour another glass of poison down
Cut the thoughts that say, "Turn this around".
Keep the candle burning
Turn the music way up high.
It's alright
Think I'll sleep with a stranger tonight
You'll wipe away the gathering clouds lying in my eyes.
The chill will fade, the numbness stays, I've such a great disguise.
And I'm good on the inside and my price is mighty cheap.
We like what's on the outside but that wrapping's not for keeps.
So pour another glass of poison down
Cut the thoughts that say, "Turn this around".
Keep the candle burning
Turn the music way up high.
It's alright
Think I'll sleep with a stranger tonight
It's alright
Think I'll sleep with a stranger tonight
Shut out those lights
Think I'll sleep with a stranger tonight

I adore Chris’ vocal on this. It’s so well suited and it’s great that he hasn’t succumbed to that ‘Americanisation’ that a lot of vocalists acquire. This is authentic, genuine, so accessible and relatable. It feels like it’s made by one of us, not FOR us. Love 🖤 Love 🖤 Love it. 🖤
