Won't Sing For You 04:44
lyrics
I won't back down from this fight, Nothing can get to me tonight. The time has come to set the score, The voice inside it screams for war. You try to change me. I can't get through to you, It finally seems we're through. There's nothing left to do, So I won't sing for you, anymore. The time has come to make a stand, I've acted just as you had planned. I'll sit and wait to see your move, Just know I've nothing left to lose. You still try to change me. I can't get through to you, It finally seems we're through. There's nothing left to do, So I won't sing for you, no. I won't sing, I won't sing for you, I won't sing, I won't sing for you. I won't sing, I won't sing for you, I won't sing, I won't sing for you, no, anymore. (SOLO) I won't sing, I won't sing for you, I won't sing, I won't sing for you. I won't sing, I won't sing for you, I won't sing, I won't sing for you, no. I can't get through to you, It finally seems we're through. There's nothing left to do, So I won't sing for you, no, anymore.

Silent Dreams 04:40
lyrics
Tears, they fall like rain drops, softly down my wintry face. Time, the silent culprit, he steals the things I can't replace. Suddenly, you're in the moonlight with darker shades beneath your eyes. In an instant, you fade into the wind and leave me to stand alone tonight. Silent dreams, play slowly on. Still we reach, for that which is gone. Life, goes on but never feels quite the way it did before. Days, spent staring into space, I quietly wish for something more. But these movies, they never cease to run inside my head, inside my mind. When I sleep, I see what might have been if I had you for all of time. Silent dreams, play slowly on. Still we reach, for that which is gone. (SOLO) Silent dreams, play slowly on. Still we reach, for that which is gone. Silent dreams, play slowly on. Still we reach, for that which is gone.

Me, Myself and I 04:33
lyrics
I spend my time, trying to live the way I know. Clear skies so blue, the doubt in me I will not show. Now I've opened my eyes, The good around me I can see. Bound no more by all my lies, I can just be me, myself and I. These simple things, they speak to me for the first time, Beauty to behold, it lifts me up to the divine. Now I've opened my eyes, The good around me I can see. Bound no more by all my lies, I can just be me, myself and I. I lay down, On this hallowed ground. All these fears I've known, Couldn't overcome my soul. I lay down, On this hallowed ground. All these fears I've known, Couldn't overcome my soul. I lay down, On this hallowed ground. All these fears I've known, Couldn't overcome my soul.

All We Want 03:51
lyrics
Take my hand, be my friend, By your side, I'll be okay. Fight your fears, face these years, Even if you slip, don't be dismayed. All we want is to smile, To live free and glad for a while. Giving up the things that kept us down. Soaring high above the ground. Chase your heart, break apart, From all those things you said, you'd never be. All we want is to smile, To live free and glad for a while. Giving up the things that kept us down. Soaring high above the ground. I'm open now, accepting all these things I can call mine. This world seems cold, but I have found now it can be kind. Take my hand, be my friend, By your side. All we want is to smile, To live free and glad for a while. Giving up the things that kept us down. Soaring high above the ground. All we want is to smile, To live free and glad for a while. Giving up the things that kept us down. Soaring high above the ground.

about

'Room to Grow' is my début EP, and is a small collection of songs that collectively tells the story of someone, anyone, as they only just begin to appreciate what life has to offer. The material in this EP is quite different to anything I have done in the past, as I have tried to be more positive and upbeat both musically and lyrically, and I hope this attempt is identifiable in the songs. All in all, I am very proud of this first effort, so please have a listen, and I hope you can share in this wonderful experience with me.
