Something tells me that you know what you are doing You’ve done this before When people make you important Does that settle some score? Oh I’ve an axe to grind A grudge to bear A bone to pick with you Ooh Ooh Ooh And I’ll ask you to spare me Your bullshit about being betrayed And to give you the benefit of the doubt I’ll assume that you lie when afraid Oh I’ve an axe to grind A grudge to bear A bone to pick with you Ooh Ooh Ooh So continue to live in your narrative – Hell, tell whoever you like Cause those who matter know the truth of it So I won’t bother to fight But between me and him Between he and I Between us two The bone of contention is you
3.	Cold 03:36	lyrics	buy track
I wondered why you didn’t ask me more But I’d hate for you to dwell upon the details When people grow I find it hard to feel secure Am I going the wrong way? And am I headed there alone? And I can’t find the answers for myself It’s easier to help somebody else Good God, please Good God, be kind to me I wrote two notes – one what I did, one what you knew To help me to decide which one to give you Little secrets kept within pale yellow lines Little secrets of mine, of mine, of mine, of mine And I can’t find the answers for myself It’s easier to help somebody else Good God, please Good God, hold hope for me Good God, please Good God, be warm to me Be warm to me When I am cold Cold And I can’t find the answers for myself It’s easier to help somebody else

about

A psychotherapist by day, Laura Fell’s upcoming debut album, ’Safe from Me’, is a search for answers from a woman always expected to have them to hand, and the self-punishing frustration that assumption brings.

Fell’s dedication to this journey of self-discovery was unquestionable from the off, so much so that her peers questioned her sanity. Holding down three jobs to fund the record, Fell was determined that the songs would go far beyond their acoustic guitar genesis, assembling classically trained musicians to fully realise her vision.

London-based, Fell only started playing music at 25 when the poetry she had been writing for almost a decade began to feel more like songs. This talent stretches throughout ‘Safe from Me’; Fell invites you to claw at the soil until you strike gold, and the meaning eventually becomes unearthed.

‘Safe from Me’ will be released on 20th November through Balloon Machine Records.
