Girl you look like fucking fire tonight
And I'm hoping that you feel alright
Half the time it's running uphill
Half the time it's like a standstill
There are voices getting louder
The return of ancient borders
But I promise I can hear you
I know you've seen some things
And I think I've seen some too
We are here and glowing somehow
Tiny revolutions and now
You've picked all the clothes off your bedroom floor
And I don't hate sundays any more
The world falls apart
A firework blast
When age old stories come undone
Babe you're just another girl
Going out to your car to scream
So you don't bother anyone
You and me, yeah, let's bother everyone
In some ways you're in my bloodline
Held my hand in 1969
We'd spent years just running uphill
Got in a spot of trouble with the old bill
Now I've heard we've slashed your tyres
Said you were something dangerous, a liar
I hope you know that I am sorry
I hope you know that I am
I hope the world falls apart
A firework blast
When age old stories come undone
Babe you're just another girl
Going out to your car to scream
So you don't bother anyone
You and me, yeah, let's bother everyone
And there's that time when you were 5
Or I was 9 and we were trapped inside
The things we we were supposed to be
The walls of our society
And I thought I was on my own
And you thought you were all alone
And then we went and talked about it
Then we went and talked about it
There's nothing for me if it's not for you too
There's not one without the other
There's no freedom if the freedom's subject to
It's the hope. Through the sadness and anger at the current state of the world, Grace seems to sing hope and belief that people can, and want to, do better, and build something where we all fit. voxdumnonia
The second EP from Northern Irish singer-songwriter Bea Stewart runs from gentle folk to pillowy pop ballads, all perfectly executed. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 15, 2024
