lyrics

I realise I've not much to offer,
And you're far better to me than I'm to you.
I realise I may wear pain like pleasure,
But I'm trying hard to be better, too.

I've got ghosts that terrorise my, very existance,
I've got no handle keeping them away,
But I've learned some new rules about them ghosts,
They're not allowed to haunt me when I'm happy today.

Oh I've got things that would terrorise,
The life right out of your darling face,
And keep you stark white as the damn mid day sun,
But you seem to keep coming back to my place.

I realise that I'm more afraid of you,
Being scared off by brutal normality,
I realise that I've not much to offer,
In the skin, oh just sin, just reality.

Oh I've got things that would terrorise,
The life right out of your darling face,
And keep you stark white as the damn mid day sun,
But you seem to keep coming back to my place.

about

Jonathan Atkins Mississauga, Ontario

"A singer-songwriter with a devastating ear for harmonies and a delicate touch with lyrics that slide perfectly into a horrid winter. There's a definite Celtic touch, but far sweeter than something like Mumford & Sons." - Andrew Fifield (Metro News)
