"Isobel" lyrics
"Isobel"
You'll never learn to lie
Say your French goodbye
Stay up in the blue glow, try to rearrange
All your insecurity and encyclopaedic rage
Do you still think you're a killer or that you could be if you tried?
Always thought that you could do it if you couldn't see their eyes
Do you still wake up reaching for an empty space?
Do you start to miss your sadness when it goes away?
Do you wish your parents gave you someone else's name?
Do you scratch another line out for the same mistakes?
You used to hold your body like a gun
Now you give yourself to anyone
Are you right back where you started or have you found another way?
Sugar rush, a stranger's backyard, the devil's holiday
You watch yourself in fragments, amongst the leaves and you conclude
That you never were much more than a reflection in a pool
Do you still wake up reaching for an empty space?
Do you start to miss your sadness when it goes away?
Do you wish your parents gave you someone else's name?
Do you scratch another line out for the same mistakes?
Do you still wake up wrapped around an empty space?
Do you only know the good days once they've slipped away?
Do you wish that he would call you by another name?
Do you pour another drink out for the same mistakes?
Do you still wake up reaching for an empty space?
Do you start to miss your sadness when it goes away?
Do you wish your parents gave you someone else's name?
Do you scratch another line out for the same mistakes?
(And I will never know you now)
Do you still wake up wrapped around an empty space?
Do you only know the good days once they've slipped away?
Do you wish that he would call you by another name?
Do you pour another drink out for the same mistakes?

Suki Waterhouse - "Moves" I can't forget that night
You said I look like Suzi Quatro
In the morning light
Faded to oblivion
And I said, "That's alright, at least we feel alive"
At least we feel alive
There's nothing you can...
Delaney Bailey - "Loving & Losing" You said you never cried
But you sobbed in my shoulder saying goodbye
And I got lost on most days
But counting your freckles
Never lost my place
And I wonder if you still think of me the same way

beabadoobee - "Last Day On Earth" You made it
It's your last day on Earth
You killed someone last night
And burned down a church
Oh, you made it
For what it's worth
Well, and if it all goes wrong
And it looks like we'll soon be gone...
Fog Lake - "Dinosaur" Wave goodbye to the dreams you never had
I've been a stray too long
I think I know what's wrong
But I'm going nowhere fast
I'm going nowhere fast
I'm going nowhere fast
Dinosaur, was it wrong to...
