Intro+Chorus Standing, on the field of war My heart is feeling sore And it's dripping on the red It falls onto the floor Surrounded by naked flames No longer playing games My mind is filling up With a destructive rage Fire, fire, fire, oh fire (oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah) fire, fire, fire, heart of fire Verse 1 Each day is a battlefield Crawl out of your bed Want to scream and cry Cos life is a fight How does one keep the smile up When your heart is breaking, head is aching Lost all who you are Been burned and churned to a crisp Leaving the house creates new risk (oh yeah) The sad truth is life just ain't fair The good ones suffer and the bad ones fare Well, for the part Cos their heart ain't charred and roasting on a spit Chorus Standing, on the field of war My heart is feeling sore And it's dripping on the red It falls onto the floor Surrounded by naked flames No longer playing games My mind is filling up With a destructive rage Fire, fire, fire, oh fire (oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah) fire, fire, fire, heart of fire Verse 2 Turn on the TV and it's filled with fright Police shot another young man tonight Men dragging girls into bushes to rape her No father to teach son how to treat her Drag soldiers off to fight in these wars For a waste of time spent government cause Pouring money into weapons and arms When it could be used to feed those that starve Girl cries to her mum every day Wondering when it's her dad's holiday Shall give him leave from Iraq or Iran Except he was killed in action Chorus x2 Standing, on the field of war My heart is feeling sore And it's dripping on the red It falls onto the floor Surrounded by naked flames No longer playing games My mind is filling up With a destructive rage Fire, fire, fire, oh fire (oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah) fire, fire, fire, heart of fire End Date written: 22/10/2012 Revisions: 1/12/2012, 30/1/2013, 30/1/2015, 13/6/2015, 26/1/2016 © Zarina Macha

Verse 1 She looked out at the grey surrounding the skies Cars would pass the A3, yes they would drive Tall buildings and fog, offices stacked Oh the shard and the gherkin and the tall flats Such surrounding noise lost in a fog Dreams of leaving the pigeons and the yappy dogs Float away far away from the big city In a land that welcomes all fountains of green Chorus Calling, calling on Guildford (calling) Calling, calling on Guildford (calling) Calling, calling on Guildford (calling) Calling, calling Verse 2 To the place that is cold further up North Cobbled streets, narrow roads, call on old York Where the parties are loud and they drink until three Hide away in the liquor and the nicotine She escaped from the land where the colours are bright Where the folks were so rude; here they’re polite But this grass is too green and the roads too small And the castle looks like somewhere of old Chorus Calling, calling on Guildford (calling) Calling, calling on Guildford (calling) Calling, calling on Guildford (calling) Calling, calling La la la la la la, la la la la x4 Verse 3 Well she went and she found a new land to thrive Where the shops stuck out more boasting big signs Medicine treats the liquor and the bitter Mix of trees, concrete and the river Touch the heart as you may for that lies home Not the streets, nor the signs but the hole in your soul Filled the empty with light built up anew And now home was bound as she finally knew.

Have you ever felt like you were in a situation that you wanted to escape And have you ever been somewhere so damn frustrating but the words can't create It's in that situation you're way too self-conscious you can't allow to let go And your mind is racing as you look out to tomorrow thinking am I all alone These words build up, the feelings pile up higher and higher It climbs every rooftop, yet it's hidden deep within And no one knows your feelings cos you barely comprehend them yourself So run from me now Run from all, that you hold dear Run from the country, you live in Run from the rain that pours into your soul, Disappear, descend, dissolve Run Run Run Run from the light, run into the night There's no way to express the deep sadness inside you, the darkness within Cos some feel strong when they're happy they're on fire but the anger is the same And all you yearn for is attention when it's the one thing you're not meant to seek And no amount of nurture, or deep compassion helps your mind to be at ease On and on, it won't stop it continues So why do I feel like I'm going round in circles Deep thoughts in my mind come flooding onto the paper Do I need help, I do Run from your friends, family, and your loved ones Run from the wind as it cries Mary like Hendrix Run from the rain that pours into your soul disappear, descend, dissolve Run (run, run, run) Run (run, run, run) Run (run, run, run) Run from the light, run into the night Run from all, that you hold dear Run from the country, you live in Run from the rain that pours into your soul, Disappear, descend, dissolve Run Run Run away Run from the light, run into the night End Date written: 17/3/2013 © Zarina Macha

Verse 1 Ooh you try to bring me down Tell me bout how shit I am How I’m such a nasty person Don’t like the way that I think Don’t like what I have to say Wish I would shut my mouth Pre-chorus But where I come from I’ve got to express It’s all that I have to stay sane Without these words I’ll be nothing But you don’t know the half of it Chorus I know you don’t know me, but that’s ok We never had much in common, anyway I know you don’t like me, I’ll live today Cos I’ll get by without you, any day Verse 2 You think that I just won’t quit Can’t let up or give a shit Trying to appease my ego If I would just let it go People would hear and know That my intentions are pure Pre-chorus Would life be better if I wasn’t here? If I crawled out the window and disappeared I know you think that I’m a little bitch But you don’t know the half of it Chorus I know you don’t know me, but that’s ok We never had much in common, anyway I know you don’t like me, I’ll live today Cos I’ll get by without you, any day I know I annoy you, and that's okay Cos we were never that close, no no, we never had much in common I know you don't l like what, I have to say But I’ll get by without you, any day Bridge/Middle 8 I know you don’t, I know you don’t, I know you don’t know me I know you don’t, I know you don’t, I know you don’t like me I know you don’t, I know you don’t, I know you don’t know me I know you don’t, I know you don’t, I know you don’t like me Chorus I know you don’t know me, but that’s okay We never had much in common, anyway I know you don’t like me, I’ll live today Cos I’ll get by without you, any day I know I annoy you, and that's okay Cos we were never that close, no no, no no, no no I know you don't like what I have to say But I’ll get by without you, any day End Date Written: 30/05/2017 © Zarina Macha
