This is a song I've struggled with for a couple of years. It's been recorded twice now and completely remixed two or three times. I hope this is a more definitive version; I am currently working on an album I can offer to musicians in the hopes of forming a band, so what I'd really love is someone who can mix & master this new batch of songs to a professional-ish standard. As it stands, it's sort of a demo but it's the best I can do with my limited production skills (will pay top $$$ for a producer). But anyway...
This is a song I wrote about running away with someone who couldn't quite love me.

Just as the sand all solidified
With the winter ice
Our hearts sparked some fun
Strawberry season we ran away
Yeah, we were the graves
On everybody’s lips
Skipped the train for the morning rain
We watched the news again:
We were ticker tape
Hitler ruined eugenics for everyone
Let’s get a house by the lakeside and have some fun
I know your girl; she’s a friend of mine
She paints the sky in wine
Now she’s in the Tate
Honey, you are the heat of home on the eyes of a blue drunk
I won’t live another day on midnight TV, oh!
And with a sigh I see you've fallen on the floor
And with a bottle of wine, no one wants to be your friend
Brown-eyed girl you are like the news
I need you still
But you are so sad
I’m over you and your feelings now
Yeah, your feelings girl
Swallowed me up
Whoever gave you a camera’s a criminal
Whoever showed you the sky first must love us all
You’re in the garden dreaming while most of us are doomed to politics
And half-wits
Honey, you are the anger in the notes of an old goth
I spend my day trying to unwind but you are in my veins
And with a sigh I see you’ve fallen on the floor
And with a bottle of wine, no one wants to be your friend
No one wants to be your friend, no no no no
Strawberry season, oh yeah
Strawberry season, oh yeah
We dreamt the world away
