Don’t your cry my dear There’s no need to grieve I am still right here I will never leave Lies will have their way Of making you believe But if you choose to stay You can never leave Oh he should’ve given you love he should’ve given you Oh he should’ve given you trust he should’ve given you Oh he should’ve given you hope he should’ve given you He’s just got you falling in love and now you’re falling Oh he could’ve given you strength he could’ve given you Oh he could’ve given you warmth he could’ve given you Oh he could’ve given you joy he could’ve given you He’s just got you falling in love and now you’re falling through Never cast your pearls Before the dirty swine You’re not of this world You don’t need a sign Oh he should’ve given you love he should’ve given you Oh he should’ve given you trust he should’ve given you Oh he should’ve given you hope he should’ve given you He’s just got you falling in love and now you’re falling Oh he could’ve given you strength he could’ve given you Oh he could’ve given you warmth he could’ve given you Oh he could’ve given you joy he could’ve given you He’s just got you falling in love and now you’re falling through ooooh Selina Boland

Tell me it’s a season Tell me things will change Dark will turn to light and White will turn to green Tell me it’s not a lie I cannot cry in vain You know I’ll drink in all The sweet words you say All these hours I... All these hours All these hours I believed Could I be deceived Could I be deceived Could I be could I be could I be Deceived I’m running out of time But this won’t be the end for me You’ve taken what was mine But this won’t be the end This won’t be the end for me This won’t be the end For me I don’t know who I am So tell me who you are And how can I put my faith In everything you are All these hours I... All these hours All these hours I believed Could I be deceived Could I be deceived Could I be could I be could I be Deceived I’m running out of time But this won’t be the end for me You’ve taken what was mine But this won’t be the end This won’t be the end for me This won’t be the end For me Selina Boland

In Your Room 03:31
Catapulted through the door Into a state of poverty Burned by cold synthetic lights Exposed for every eye to see And nothing is quite what it seems Here in this reality But in your room In your room In your room I was safe and warm Misdirected troubadour Living each day so wastefully Rising to the left and right Falling simultaneously And nothing is quite what it seems When there is no gurantee But in your room In your room In your room I was safe and warm In your room In your room In your room Two hearts once in sync Now so offbeat Oooh Oooh In your room In your room In your room Two hearts once in sync Now so offbeat Selina Boland

Got my neck pointed at your head I wish could count my frets instead But you hum a tune I never hear And your presence takes away my fear And now I don’t wanna chase you around And now I don’t wanna cut you down And now I don’t wanna take control But I am not another timid soul You say you see my words in the air They float around you while you sit and stare And I’m not sure what planet you’re from If I knew don’t you think I’d come? And now I don’t wanna chase you around And now I don’t wanna cut you down And now I don’t wanna take control But I am not another timid soul I’m not another timid soul I’m not another timid soul Oh oh oh I’m not another timid soul And I’m not gonna take control Selina Boland

Loss has a disfigured face with a crooked smile that will not wait for me to comprehend the truth of this piercing reality Oh what I wouldn't do To have you come back home But that's the way it goes And I suppose Your light was on and now it's off But that's the way it goes And now I know Your eyes were opened and now they're closed Pain was a familiar chore With a heavy weight demanding more of your short time and energy Until you were too weak to see Oh what I wouldn't do To have you come back home But that's the way it goes And I suppose Your light was on and now it's off But that's the way it goes And now I know Your eyes were opened and now they're closed When your eyes were open You taught me to believe We'd see each other again Yeah you taught me to believe... And that's the way it goes And I suppose Your light was on and now it's off That's the way it goes And now I know Your eyes were opened and now they're closed Selina Boland

Tiny little secrets Live inside my head Tiny little secrets Fill me up with dread And if I gave you one to carry Would you still love me? Do you think that we could bury It for eternity? Would you like to see all of them? Some are sitting in my garbage bin Some are flushed into the cold ocean Some are lying in my diary Tiny little secrets All grown up so fast I thought that they would disappear if I kept them in the past Would you like to see all of them? Some are sitting in my garbage bin Some are flushed into the cold ocean Some are lying in my diary Would you like to see all of them? (I still love you) Some are sitting in my garbage bin (I still need you) Some are flushed into the cold ocean (I still want you) Some are lying in my diary (I still love you) Selina Boland

Quickly 03:11
Oh no here we go again I can feel it Oh no it’s happening again I can hear it I woke up this morning Feeling heavy Something weighed upon your chest But it wasn’t me You’re gonna leave I don’ t wanna be afraid anymore I don’t wanna I don’t wanna feel ashamed anymore And I’m tired of standing at death’s door Just do it quickly Something final in your voice Stung like needles A sense of resolve in your words No chance to reconcile You discarded I wondered who i was to you If it all mattered I left you with nothing left to do But to Leave So quickly I don’ t wanna be afraid anymore I don’t wanna I don’t wanna feel ashamed anymore And I’m tired of standing at death’s door Just do it quickly I don’ t wanna be afraid anymore I don’t wanna I don’t wanna feel ashamed anymore And I’m tired of standing at death’s door Just do it quickly Just do it quickly Selina Boland

You're always going somewhere Nowhere never finds you Sometimes there's no time with you And any old time will not do But when your body seeks to stop I'll have nothing for you to be holding onto Nothing for you to be holding Nothing for you to be holding onto But something Something oooh You’re chasing after someone And no one can ever catch you For you will have had everyone You know someone will not do But when your body seeks to stop I'll have nothing for you to be holding onto Nothing for you to be holding Nothing for you to be holding onto But something Something And I'll have nothing for you to be holding onto Nothing for you to be holding Nothing for you to be holding onto But something And anyone might give you the time you never had But by then you won't be able to go anywhere And you might wish to be anywhere but there And anyone might give you the love you never had But by then you won't be able to go anywhere And you might wish to be anywhere but there And I'll have nothing for you to be holding onto Nothing for you to be holding Nothing for you to be holding onto But something...something...something....something Selina Boland

Unbeholden 03:31
You expend energy Dancing around Your convictions Circumventing covenants I've counted all our words Unspoken, unthought, and written Over one million composed Still nothing was said Please No more maybes Please Let me love you Why do you waste energy Being so mad at me We only have this time And it's brief... Please No more maybes Please Let me love you Please No more maybes Please Let me love you My unbeholden Selina Boland

Catch 03:08
You're not one for melodies Or sipping wine under the trees Or lying down on the rugged ground Discussing all of life's tragedies Silver coins rest in your eyes They're tools you use to hypnotize The weak spirits who'll always stray Who you will later demonize (Is there no justice for us?) You're not one for empathy You don't have the faculties So pack your suitcase while I cry Ask my soul for sympathy For your vices as you grin And hold your laughter deep within Prepare for your next journey Cuz you can't feel my suffering (Is there no justice for us?) And you think you're all that And you think you're a catch And you think I think about you all the time And you're right You parasite Your venomous appetite My oversight Now I must go; there's much to do To take high roads I never knew If I look back and you're behind I'll blow blessing kisses to you And there will be justice for us And you think you're all that And you think you're a catch And you think I think about you all the time And you're right You parasite Your venomous appetite My oversight Never again will I let you in here Never again can I let you in My heart is just too fragile for you Never again can I let you in My heart is just too broken for you Never again can I let you in My heart is just too precious for you Never again can I let you in Never again, Never again, Never again, Never again! You’re not one for melodies Or sipping wine under the trees Selina Boland
