Your eyes were an ocean And I was endlessly lost in an endless sea Your hands were scales They weighed me up, balanced me, weighed me down and challenged me Your heart was a desert By day it scalded me but by night it froze my feet Your mind was a labyrinth I never knew which way to turn when we would meet I am unchanging But you are a changeling You’ll never see me fade You’ll never see me fray You’ll never rearrange The faces that I paint My eyes were a window They let you see through the pain, to see that love remains My hands were cushions They softened the blows as I watched the chaos of your mind unfold My heart was an anvil Heavy as steel, but just as strong, and with room to heal My mind was a fortress But I let my defences down and had to go to ground I am unchanging But you are a changeling You’ll never see me fade You’ll never see me fray You’ll never rearrange The faces that I paint

The boy in the wolf suit screams quite loudly Moving backwards, drifting slowly The boy in the wolf suit screams quite loudly Overcome by all that scares him Can you hear him now Can you hear him now Can you hear him now The boy in the wolf suit treads so carefully Fearing change of all the space around him The boy in the wolf suit treads so carefully Losing sight of all the hope and glory Can you see him now Can you see him now Can you see him now The boy in the wolf suit sits and listens Words fall gently and mend him swiftly The boy in the wolf suit sits and listens Reaching out, he grabs his mind and bends it Can you help him now Can you show him how Can you let him out The boy in the wolf suit Screams so loudly The boy in the wolf suit Bleeds so proudly

Tumbling down the rabbit hole My sunlight is fading Twisting my reality My shadows are waiting Do I pull myself out of this dream I’ve created Or just let my spirit flow As intensity rises, my mind, it capsizes The deeper down I go Do I pull myself out of this dream I've created Or just let my spirit flow As intensity rises, my brain paralyses The fear of letting go Exorcising my demons Crystallising in front of me Taking in my surroundings Face to face with my enemy Do I pull myself out of this dream I’ve created Or just let my spirit flow As intensity rises, my mind, it capsizes The deeper down I go Do I pull myself out of this dream I've created Or just let my spirit flow As intensity rises, my brain paralyses The fear of letting go Deep down in the rabbit hole My sunlight is fading Deep down in the rabbit hole my shadows are waiting

Down by the riverside Movements are flowing Down by the riverside Feelings are growing Down by the riverside I hear it calling Down by the riverside To save me from falling The wind and the water The birds and the trees, all around me and speaking their language The silence of solitude The feeling of being so present and caught in this moment Down by the riverside Free as the breeze Down by the riverside Sleeping with ease Down by the riverside I hear it whisper Down by the riverside To save me from this year, and every year after The wind and the water The birds and the trees, all around me and speaking their language The silence of solitude The feeling of being so present and caught in this moment Things often get worse before they get better Before the sun shines, the sky cries, and the ground gets wetter So open up your eyes, thus opening your mind And realise that the real treasures in life Are the ones you’ve yet to find Not the ones borne of strife, but the ones that shall be your guiding light Through these darkened times Of blurred lines, unanswered questions and emotional landmines Look deep within yourself And maximise the potential of your mental health A wealth you can ill-afford to lose I have seen that light and I have lingered in the shade Basked in brighter days and lived through areas grey And so I say to you, the clouds will pass and only then Will the warm embrace of the sun shine on you again So while the storm rages, the wind changes and shows it’s many faces Embrace the rain, the pain it brings And do not regret it Keep it at a safe distance But do not forget it The restless tide is ever-changing Flow like it’s waters, rearranging the scattered pieces of your mind In time The glory of the sun will guide And you Renewed Will become the river

Early morning, rise and shine Sing at the top of your lungs Brush your hair and clean your teeth Put your butterfly wings on Ready for the new day’s quest Everyone’s waiting for you The golden sun is warm and bright But nowhere near as pretty as the moon Did you know, did you know Which way the wind blows Did you know, did you know Which way the rivers flow Did you know, did you know Which way the flowers grow Did you know, did you know Everything you’ll ever know Men from Mars and spiders eyes Shells in the garden realm Dancing in the morning light Pause only for a bite Press play and resume the day The golden sun, it gives me life But nowhere near as much light as the moon Did you know, did you know Which way the wind blows Did you know, did you know Which way the rivers flow Did you know, did you know Which way the flowers grow Did you know, did you know Everything you’ll ever know And anyway... Well anyway... Yes, anyway... And anyway... Did you know, did you know Which way the wind blows Did you know, did you know Which way the rivers flow Did you know, did you know Which way the flowers grow Did you know, did you know Everything you’ll ever know

about

A.M. Davis Southampton, UK

Alt-folk songwriter hailing from the UK. Largely exploring the subject of deep human emotion in his lyrics, through his own experiences and observations, his songs can often have a sombre and introverted feel to them; his quiet stage presence often a reflection of this. In stark contrast, his love of rock and prog is never far behind and his music can shift from calm to visceral in a heartbeat. ... more
