Yearning for more days with you There’s a space you leave, it’s new Repeating how you sound in my head All that you shared and what you said Learning not to wait this time I can feel your smile, telling me you’re fine Thoughts and feelings crashing down like waves Thanks to you I know, how to be brave There’s a place for you Somewhere new You knew a thing or two So tell me what to do Burning candles flames, so bright Calling out your name, that still feels right Expecting you to walk in through the door Part of me knows, that won’t happen anymore There’s a place for you Somewhere new You knew a thing or two So tell me what to do Yearning for more days with you There’s a space you leave, it’s new Repeating how you sound in my head All that you shared and what you said There’s a place for you Somewhere new You knew a thing or two (didn’t you?) So tell me what to do I'm moving on without you I'm moving on without you

Set me Free 03:43
Try to open my mind, when I’m locked in a box and I fall through the sky I dream of a time I was out of my depths in the dead of the night Feel the sand on my feet, wade out from the beach to the cold bitter sea So tempting to me, ripping harrowing thoughts from this helpless body Please, set me free It’s so easy Do you see me? The worst times of my life, all reflected to me through the back of a knife So easy to go, no more wondering why, no guilty sorrow To get out of this place, where I’m trapped and alone, in this crowded space Don’t know what I’ve become, spiralling thoughts just a click and I’m done So please, set me free It’s so easy Do you see me? Which one is the disguise, I’m just plodding along, am I doing this right? All my years passing by, learn to live in the dark and breathe in the light But I soon realised, I’ve just gotta live with my corrupted mind Here to stand with you now, you’re not alone, you know how Easily To set me free So won’t you please Just see me We are not alone We are not alone We are not alone We are not alone We are not alone We are not alone We are not alone We are not alone So please, set me free It’s so easy Do you see me?

Be That Girl 04:12
Saw her, you smiled It’s been seven years, she’s still in this town Seven years of dreams, desires, fears and regrets Cleansing your soul, after time in the box Look back, she’s gone Holding hands with someone, you both used to know Seven years of letters and a few written back Thinking she’ll be waiting now you’re back on track One day soon she’ll tell him straight, she’ll be that girl for you One day soon she’ll break her chains, she’ll be that girl for you One day soon she’ll fly away, she’ll fly away with you She’ll fly away with you Text sent, calls made She met you by the river, she hugged you tight again She said she’s getting married and she’s happy and that Living in the house you bought seven years back One day soon she’ll tell him straight, she’ll be that girl for you One day soon she’ll break her chains, she’ll be that girl for you One day soon she’ll fly away, she’ll fly away with you She’ll fly away with you Hope gone, last try You said how much you love her and you’re sorry one more time Handed her a ticket and said ‘think about it yeah?’ We could be together like we were back then One day soon she’ll tell him straight, she’ll be that girl for you One day soon she’ll break her chains, she’ll be that girl for you One day soon she’ll fly away, she’ll fly away with you She’ll fly away with you One day soon she’ll tell him straight, she’ll be that girl for you One day soon she’ll break her chains, she’ll be that girl for you One day soon she’ll fly away, she’ll fly away with you She’ll fly away with you She’ll be that girl for you

Downfall 03:30
Truth be known, I am missing you Without the darkness, they’d be no light There comes a day when we should let it go Forever in hope that we’d be alright? Forgive me for seeing the light All i’ve ever wanted for us is to be alright I’ll float out to sea, you stand at the shore Can’t come back around, can’t do this no more You are my downfall There for the rise, away for the fall And when you are here I mean nothing at all But I’ll always be there to answer your call Gone are the days, we wanted for more That we’d be the ones who’d make it for sure Is this the day it should come to an end Or push through again, break and then mend We both know that this isn’t right I hear myself saying again just, one more time Can’t see that beacon anymore And my knuckles are raw trying to knock at your door You are my downfall There for the rise, away for the fall And when you are here I mean nothing at all But I’ll always be there to answer your call You are my downfall There for the rise, away for the fall And when you are here I mean nothing at all But I’ll always be there to answer your call

This lad once had a problem, he came and sat by me. I was drinking in me local bar, thinking of the sea. He popped his tankard on a stool and showed me its full brim. The beer did disappear, with a sloppy yellow grin. Not got a drinking problem, there's a problem with my glass. I’ll say its broke before I choke and fall upon my ass. Have a think and realise that you are just the same. Or have a drink and be surprised, that you forgot my name. So as you see, he said to me, me tankard's got a hole. Every time I fill it up, the beer will end up gone. So do this lad a favour, spend a penny for some grog. Tomorrow I'll be sick with this party trick and stuck upon the bog. Not got a drinking problem, there's a problem with my glass. I’ll say its broke before I choke and fall upon my ass. Have a think and realise that you are just the same. Or have a drink and be surprised, that you forgot my name. About a week it took to steep around about my head. Couldn't put me finger on it, what that lad had said. So as I sit upon the bar, to think and drink on it. I raise me tankard, have a sip, there's nothing but a drip Not got a drinking problem, there's a problem with my glass. I’ll say its broke before I choke and fall upon my ass. Have a think and realise that you are just the same. Or have a drink and be surprised, that you forgot my name. Not got a drinking problem, there's a problem with my glass. I’ll say its broke before I choke and fall upon my ass. Have a think and realise that you are just the same. Or have a drink and be surprised, that you forgot my name.

Stand Out 02:44
Oh, it’s the weight of it all Constant contradictions from that guilty monster, hanging from my wall. King Ridicule, there’s nothing you can say to me that I haven’t thought before I need a story to stand out Something for them to talk about Got to be fun and entertaining for my friends Coz what’s the point of all this suffering, if I end up as nothing? Got to hang on to a reason by a thread Oh, my world’s at war Lost all of its colours, leave emotions that are hurtful to explore Oh, my soul’s on tour Throw me in an empty pit Left wondering If there’s more I need a story to stand out Something for them to talk about Got to be fun and entertaining for my friends Coz what’s the point of all this suffering, if I end up as nothing? Got to hang on to a reason by a thread Always at war, with my guilty monster Always at war, inside my head Always at war, with my guilty monster When will the King of Ridicule be dead? I need a story to stand out Something for them to talk about Got to be fun and entertaining for my friends Coz what’s the point of all this suffering, if I end up as nothing Got to hang on to a reason by a thread I need a story to stand out Something for them to talk about Got to be fun and entertaining for my friends Coz what’s the point of all this suffering, if I end up as nothing Got to hang on to a reason by a thread I need a story to stand out Something for them to talk about Got to be fun and entertaining for my friends Coz what’s the point of all this suffering, if I end up as nothing Got to hang on to a reason by a thread Tonight

Shine 03:04
Here within this labyrinth, all wrapped up in mis-guided myths, Don’t treat her as broken down, she’s not a car halfway to town Be a hand to hold, a heart to care Stand by her side, while she is here Use your mind and you will find Her light will shine Her light will shine Her light will shine Her light will shine Her light will shine Coz I’ll use mine Watch the Autumn trees stand proud, all free of leaves of green and brown She’s rooted in the Earth deep down, so stand close by, protect the ground Be a hand to hold, a heart to care Stand by her side, while she is here Use your mind and you will find Her light will shine (shine on) Her light will shine (shine on) Her light will shine Her light will shine (shine on) Her light will shine Shine a light, be her guide, be that hand to hold Heart to care, use your mind, this moment’s what she’s told Shine a light, be her guide, be that hand to hold Heart to care, use your mind, this moment’s what she’s told Her light will shine Her light will shine Don’t look behind Just for tonight Her light will shine Her light will shine Just be her guide It’s light for light Shine a light, be her guide, be that hand to hold Heart to care, use your mind, this moment’s what she’s told Shine a light, be her guide, be that hand to hold Heart to care, use your mind, this moment’s what she’s told Her light will shine Her light will shine Coz I’ll use mine

Standing by the sea, picturing what could’ve been If I took the hit and left this place last summer I saw you first in May, whilst working by the river You showed me things about this place you love I wonder how life could be, if I just got away from here I love and hate this place in equal measure Move with the tide or anchor to shore Looking out of the harbour I know there is more One way or another I’m leaving this town With or without you I’ll make it somehow You took me to the park, you showed me where you use to go When things at home weren’t getting any better I’m not seeing a change, I’m not where I’m supposed to be This town is dead, it keeps bringing me down I wonder how life could be, if I just got away from here I love and hate this place in equal measure Here for the ride holding your hand No need for an anchor that ties us to land Let’s break like the waves or come crashing back down Let’s give it a go I am here for you now You’re what kept me sane, sharing stories of our past mistakes Time with you is time that I am home Imperfect as you are, there’s nowhere else I’d rather be Together we can never be alone I wonder how life could be, if I just got away from here I love and hate this place in equal measure Move with the tide or anchor to shore Looking out of the harbour I know there is more One way or another I’m leaving this town With or without you I’ll make it somehow Here for the ride holding your hand No need for an anchor that ties us to land Let’s break like the waves or come crashing back down Let’s give it a go I am here for you now Move with the tide, leave the anchor behind Sail out the harbour, don’t know what we’ll find One way or another we’re leaving this town Nothing behind us we’re living it now

about

Thank you so much for supporting my music, it really means the world to me. Music has always provided me with a sense of comfort, a feeling of belonging and a way to process my emotions. In difficult times, songwriting has helped me to find my voice and heal; often the lyrics come to me as I play my guitar and it gives me a sense of relief. This album has been a long time in the making and I am really proud of it, I hope you enjoy listening.

Many of the songs on this album are intimate to me and my experiences and I am happy that I have the opportunity to invite you into my world and open up to you all. We are all human and we all face our own challenges in life and I hope that, if nothing else, some of these songs remind you that you are not alone.

I could not have done this without the support of the people around me. Firstly, I'd like to thank my partner Kynan Sandles, who has done a fantastic job directing, producing and mixing this album. He has also played bass on every song. Thank you Kynan for your patience, love and dedication, it is an honour working with you and sharing our musical journey and adventures.

Thank you to Jake for the gorgeous artwork, I absolutely love it. Thank you to the other musicians that feature on these tracks too. 'Get Out’ features the mega shredder that is Steve (Shipwreck) Sampson. ‘There's a Hole in me Glass' is a cover of one of band's songs - check out JollyRoger! It has my brother Jae Dennis on guitar and vocals, and Jony (The Plank) Fry on flute. Thanks to my loving, beautiful Mumma Kate Tolchard for playing violin on 'Be that Girl'. 'Shine' was inspired by research into Alzheimers and includes Jack Humphries on guitar and vocals and Vince (Berlioz Strings) Martin from Imprints on violin. I also adored recording the duet 'Leaving this Town' with Kynan. I loved working with you all, thank you all so much for the time and love you put into this.

I would love to hear what you think of this album, if you would like to get in touch with any thoughts, feedback or questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to me at unitymoonmusic@gmail.com
