polygust This EP helped me through a messy break up at the end of 2015 and I listen to it all the time now. Mr. Barnes' lyrics are absolutely stunning. I don't know exactly what they're really about but there's a lot of rhetoric that you can project your own feelings onto and I sort of love that. In total it's a very emotional EP and I connected with it a lot. Here's to the next release! Favorite track: My First Car.

Darling 04:45
Darling Would you watch the light fade out, just to excite the dark. Cause I’ve been feeling so worn down and it’s taking a toll on my heart. And everyone’s worried about me, am I worried about myself. Am I worried about what I’m gunna be, am I worried about everyone else? Cause I’m just waiting patiently, darling. I’m just singing at the trees and starlings. All I want to do is dance with you darling. Away from all of their hands and harming. I’m just waiting there for you. The sun is going to burn out one day, Going to leave us in the winter one day. Gunna leave us in the cold, build the ice caps up of old. We’ll lose the sun that warms our aging skin. I heard it on the news, heard worries on the radio. I’ve heard stories of the end of the world. And where we’re gunna go. I’m so damn scared of dying. So god damn week from trying to block it out. I’m so damn scared of dying, giving love and admiring everything I’ve cared about. I’m just waiting patiently. I’m just singing at the trees. All I want to do is dance. Away from all of their hands. I’m just waiting patiently, darling. I’m just singing at the trees and starlings. All I want to do is dance with you darling. Away from all of their hands and harming. I’m just waiting there for you.

My First Car 04:46
My first car was an old bag of parts. Through thousands of miles it always did start, and the day that I sold it I feared it would see. If I’d broken down, be more reliable than me. My first house was a ramshackle mess. Build on top of a hill where the crops slowly dressed, we bought it for more than we thought it should be. Turned out to be more than we’d ever need. We’re one small step away from it, give a little time. Just one small step and everything, it will be just fine. Slow deep breaths, close your eyes in the knowledge it works out alright. You’re one small step behind. And it won’t be the same as the first love I gave. It lasted no longer than a fortnight of days, it ran off with someone that offered much more. Cause I’m the rarest of souls and I won’t hide no more. Cause we’re one small step away from it, give a little time. Just one small step and everything, it will be just fine. Slow deep breaths, close your eyes in the knowledge it works out alright. You’re one small step behind. Oh my love, you are my only one, bathe me in August sun and wake me up when winter’s ending. Oh my love, you are my only one, bathe me in August sun and wake me up when winter’s ending. I’ve been cold, I have been frozen through. Warmth has no where to hold, no where on you. Just one small step away from it, give a little time. Just one small step and everything, it will be just fine. Slow deep breaths, close your eyes in the knowledge it works out alright. You’re one small step, oh you’re one small step behind. you’re one small step down the line.

I Can’t Love You Anymore There’s a space between dark matter, the pupils of your eyes. A classroom of stars make light for a bad situation. Does it matter if we fight, the path that we chose won’t turn out right. You think it might and you lie, it’s a sad situation. I know it hurts, but I can’t love you anymore I can’t love you anymore, I can’t do it anymore. It can’t get much worse but I don’t feel it anymore. No, I don’t feel it anymore, I can’t love you anymore. I cant, I cant. I promised you nothing, I followed through just fine. Brought you an aging life with time. Your eyes saw a sad situation. A bad taste in my mouth, a glass full of wine, cleansing my sins, cleansing my mind. I hope that it dies, in time. It’s a sad situation. You need a love that sweats in fear, you need a love so honest and clear. I need a love that’s scared of the dark to hold in my arms. I know it hurts, but I can’t love you anymore I can’t love you anymore, I can’t do it anymore. It can’t get much worse but I don’t feel it anymore. No, I don’t feel it anymore, I can’t love you anymore. It’s way past our time, I give up, I don’t mind. I need someone to nest with my heart. Let the birds fly away, you go south, I’ll go far, make a break for the northest part. I’ll open my eyes to a thousand skies and the love from a falling star. Will never come back, I promise the feeling is not coming back. I know it hurts, but I can’t love you anymore I can’t love you anymore, I can’t do it anymore. I know it hurts, but I can’t love you anymore (I can’t, I can’t love you anymore) I can’t love you anymore, I can’t do it anymore. (I can’t, I can’t love you anymore) It can’t get much worse but I don’t feel it anymore. (I can’t, I can’t love you anymore) No, I don’t feel it anymore, I can’t love you anymore. (I can’t, I can’t love you anymore) I know it hurts.

Nebraska 03:39
She sits and listens to vinyl players, she says the quality is that much better and... She sits at home in her christmas sweater that she wears in the summer time. She collects Springsteen like it’s out of fashion, gambles on scratchcards she never cashes them. Her parents argue it’s their only passion, they waltz off into the night. But she won’t believe the romance is over. I will be there for you, I will be. Be there to care for you. I will be there. I’ll hold you close when you’re alone. I know I’m leaving, but I won’t be long She sleeps on sundays it’s her only day off work. She can’t lie in though the dog barks wake her up. And just in time to find a suitcase by the door. Her father loves her but he’s leaving mum once more. But she won’t believe the romance is over. I will be there for you, I will be. Be there to care for you. I will be there. I’ll hold you close when you’re alone. I know I’m leaving, but I won’t be long. If i was older, and knew what’s in store. If i was smarter, I’d tell you much more. This is a problem that you couldn’t fix. Don’t be disheartened cause our love will be missed. Our love will be missed. I will be there for you, I will be. Be there to care for you. I will be there. I’ll hold you close when you’re alone. I know I’m leaving, but I won’t be long. And our love will be missed. Our love will be missed.

Tennyson 06:13
There must be something wrong with me, a certain flaw I cannot face. Cause I’ve been saving up for years, trying to move out of this place. But all my money keeps on moving. Affording things I cannot see. To find a life within my music. Keep writing songs of you and me. And she’s the cause of my distractions, and I’m so pleased to call her mine. But i’m fed up of waking on my own, fed up of eating here alone. fed up of wasting precious time. I know that we have more to see, more stress we have to fight. I know the morning always comes with the evening close behind. Yet through every single day I know I get to hold you tight. I’m scared we’ll miss our chance to live, you know I’m worried that we might. And it’s eating me inside, it’s eating me inside. Maybe one day we’ll be fine. Maybe one day we’ll be.. All on our own, left here alone with what’s left of the best of the money held back. Money once saved from the toil and the test oh the bargaining fear. We won’t have enough to last us forever but maybe the year. And that’s long enough cause we’ll both be together. We’re all on our own, left here alone with what’s left of the best, the money held back. Money once saved from the toil and the test, the bargaining fear. We won’t have enough to last us forever but maybe the year. And that’s long enough cause we’ll both be together. And it’s eating me inside, it’s eating me inside. Maybe one day we’ll be fine. There must be something wrong. There must be something wrong with me.. (repeat) One day we’ll all be fine, one day we’ll all be fine. (repeat) All on our own, left here alone with what’s left of the best of the money held back. Money once saved from the toil and the test oh the bargaining fear. We won’t have enough to last us forever. We’re all on our own, left here alone with what’s left of the best of the money held back. Money once saved from the toil and the test oh the bargaining fear. We won’t have enough to last us forever but maybe the year. And that’s long enough cause we’ll both be together. And it’s eating me inside, it’s eating me inside. Maybe one day we’ll be fine.
