I Know You Lie (demo)
01:20
|
|||
I know you lie, I don't think I mind
Tell me I light up the night and your life
I know it ain't true, you know that I do
I just like the shape of your lips as they move
I just like the sound of something profound
Something not ordinary I'm in no hurry about it so
Say it real slow, tell me I'm whole
Tell me that my shit will never get old
And tell me you want me and I'll lie to you too
I won't ever cheat, I'll speak so softly
And do all the things that a good woman's supposed to
Oh see I'm a natural, watch how the lies just fall out of my mouth and into your mind we do it all the time
We do it all the time
I know you lie, I don't think I mind
Tell me I light up the night and your life

Five Foot Two (demo)
02:19
|
|||
I stopped writing love songs 'cause I'm five foot two
And I had to prove I'm not weak
So I just hold onto the sick shit you do and I sing til I'm blue
And I seek out some revolution
Stamp out this institution
And by now you should know pretty well
That I can look pretty and still give you hell and I will
I stopped writing love songs 'cause I'm five foot two
And got tired of being called cute
Boys playing love songs never bothered you
But a girl's gotta do
Something huge to get your attention
A fine line you're too polite to mention
And by now you should know pretty well
That I can look pretty and still give you hell and I will

Fucking Her (demo)
02:39
|
|||
Do you remember when I brought it up; you called me crazy
I tried to brush it off but intuition overcame me
And now I think about the times you told me not to worry
Well you can't play that shit when you get caught up with this bitch
And I know it's none of my business anymore
But oh, just tell me you're not fucking her
Do you remember when you begged me not to leave the bar?
You promised it was in my head and you were over her
But every time you'd speak her name I got this kind of flush
I'll find out all your lies, there are things you cannot hide
And I know it's none of my business anymore
But oh, just tell me you're not fucking her
I know I know I know I know you think that I don't know
I know I know I know I know you think that I don't know
But I know, oh I know
I know I know I know I know you think that I don't know
I know I know I know I know you think that I don't know
But I know, I know
And I know it's none of my business anymore
But oh, just tell me you're not fucking her

You say you'd change your life for her
She just needs to give the order
Well I've never loved anybody that way
If she asked you to you say you would move
Two thousand miles away
Well I've never loved anybody that way
You ask me what I'd do, I say you're a fool
You know that I would stay
But I, I've never loved anybody that way
Maybe I'm stubborn and maybe I'm selfish
Maybe I'm a cynic but I can't help it
I will not give my life to another
I will not yield to something so changeable
I've been that girl sometimes; I've been driving men wild
Since I learned to hold their gaze
But I've never loved anybody that way
No I've never loved anybody that way
Thought if he'd let me maybe I could fall in deeply
Turns out I'm never gonna change 'cause I
I never loved anybody that way
No I've never loved anybody that way

Worship Me (demo)
03:01
|
|||
He did me wrong, it hit me hard
Oh I forgave but it still hurt
So I've been filling this hole in my heart with leather and whisky
And no I don't love you boy, but I love that you miss me
And I love the way that I can make you beg me to stay oh say it
Go on, say it
Worship me, worship me
Get on your knees and worship me
I know it's cruel for me to toy with you
But when she's bruised what else is a girl to do?
I've been filling this hole in my heart with leather and whisky
And no I don't love you boy, but I love that you miss me
And I love the way that I can make you beg me to stay oh say it
Go on, say it
Worship me, worship me
Get on your knees and worship me

Black Dog (demo)
03:43
|
|||
Everybody wants to make it to the big time
But I'm making myself sick just for a cheap rhyme
And i've been talking to my friends who write like summer never ends
And they're all crumbling underneath their veils of sunshine
Nobody wants to fade away
But nobody really wins this game
If nobody's happy anyway
What's the point in trying just for trying's sake?
Everybody wants to feel they're going somewhere
But watching my esteem falling to get there
And I've been talking to my friends who say the judgement never ends
But there's no value in complaining that it's not fair
I never needed lights and fame
Just a few folk who love my name
I'm trying to love the present day
And make art for arts sake on my way
Everybody wants to get out on the main stage
But I cry each time I think about the long wait
And I've been talking to my friends who say it's a means to an end
But this black dog will hunt me down before the end ever comes
Nobody wants to fade away
But nobody ever wins this game
If nobody's happy anyway
And what's the point in trying just for trying's sake?
Oh I never needed lights and fame
Just a few folk who love my name
I'm trying to love the present day
And make art for arts sake on my way
Everybody wants to make it to the big time
But I'm making myself sick just for a cheap rhyme

“wickedly-badass pint-sized powerhouse”
Simeon Hammond Dallas is a singer-songwriter from London’s
Camden Town. An overactive mind and a desire to live a life like a travel montage from a rom-com provide the inspiration for her music; a folky bluesy country-soul amalgamation. An enemy of dichotomy, her music is soft and vulnerable while packing a punch at the same time.
