lucy spraggan - last night

lucy spraggan - tea and toast

lucy spraggan - butterflies

lucy spraggan - lighthouse

lucy spraggan - mountains

lucy spraggan - fight for it

lucy spraggan - yes, this one's for you

lucy spraggan - you're too young

lucy spraggan - you re too young

She was bought up in an everyday council estate
Had friends and family who were never too far away
Even as a kid she'd sometimes loose her temper
And if attentions being given
Guaranteed she's in the centre

School was a struggle
Result of her behaviour
Excluded for the fights
The same a few days later
'cause when she got angry, she'd flip, see red
Your too pretty for the violence her mum always said

She has high aspirations
She was chasing the dream
Until her first conviction at the age of fourteen
She nearly killed a girl just for looking the wrong way
Smashed her head so hard against the ground
She was unconscious for days

Passers by stop to witness the torture
While she stamped on the head of a policeman's daughter
No remorse, for the course, of a magistrates court
If was everybody else's fault of course

What you doin' with your night?
Your too young to ruin your life
What you doin' with your life?
Your too young to die tonight

After that things began to slip out of grip
And her grades were failing but she didn't give a
She was top dog at school
And all the girls were scared
And when she walked through the corridor all the boys stared

She craved to be wanted, she didn't care how
She wanted everything including this guy ben she liked now
He was 19, liked fighting, and smoking the green
He was a dreamer, had a beamer
She thought he was a dream

She got his number, are you ok?
Text back, chelsea price
It was monday they agreed to meet up on friday night
She played it cool
The whole week she wondered what to wear
She planned her jewellery, her make-up
Her shoes and her hair

The days went so slow, her school was so boring
But before she knew it, it was already friday morning
She was nervous and scared, but in a good way
She has no idea that this was no ordinary day
When she walked down the stairs, it was seven o'clock
He was coming at eight, she had to iron her top
Seven forty five came and she looked gorgeous
Rapunzel let out too early from the fortress

What you doin' with your night?
Your too young to ruin your life
What you doin' with your life?
Your too young to die tonight

She gets in the car, says hi, they drive off
They head to a car park, where he can skin up
She gets into conversation, nods and smiles
And she feels so happy and not even shy

A girl pulls up, she see's ben and screams
He puts the car in gear and gets ready to leave
This girl gets out of the car and stands in front
She screams, that's my boyfriend, get out you little

Chelsea turns to ben who just shrugs
She don't believe her
She's never been scared and she's not today either
She puts her hand on the door and gets out to fight
She's angry now this bitch has just ruined her night

The two girls clash, hair pulling, fists flying
Chelsea see's blood gushing
The other steps back crying
Chelsea grins as she thinks she's won
Then she looks at ben's face who's completely stunned

Then. there's a pain in the middle of her stomach
The bloods on her t-shirt
The other girl starts running
Chelsea heart starts pumping, panic sets in more
As she looks down at the pool of blood
And there's a knife on the floor

What you doin' with your night?
Your too young to ruin your life
What you doin' with your life?
Your too young to die tonight

She hears tight screeches, she's losing too much blood
Ben's cars gone, he's got a boot full of drugs
She lies there, eyes wide open, facing the sky
Thoughts fly out of her mind as she questions why

Her last movements are the tears she's crying
She thinks about her family as she lies there dying
She's alone on her own because of the violence
Can't hear people or friends or help or sirens
She whispers i'm sorry, there's no one on the way
As she returns to an angel, and her soul slips away

What you doin' with your night?
Your too young to ruin your life
What you doin' with your life?
Your too young to die tonight

lucy spraggan - breathe

We've all done things were ashamed of tell me what you're afraid of
Wear it with pride
We've all done things were ashamed of tell me what you're afraid of
And I'll tell you mine

I've been afraid to breathe
We are alive, we are alive
Breathe
We are alive, we are alive

I used to be scared of spiders
Now I'm scared of what's inside us
And how well we hide it
I tend to worsen anxieties with my lack of sobriety
I'm my own worst enemy

We've all done things were ashamed of tell me what you're afraid of
Wear it with pride
We've all done things were ashamed of tell me what you're afraid of
And I'll tell you mine

I've been afraid to breathe
We are alive, we are alive
Breathe
We are alive, we are alive

We've all done things were ashamed of tell me what you're afraid of
And I'll tell you mine

I'll never learn from my mistakes but I'll give you mine and I hope you learn from them

I've been afraid to breathe
We are alive, we are alive
Breathe
We are alive, we are alive

lucy spraggan - connie s bar

Well they don't wear suits
And they play rough cards
They have old tattoos and faded scars
But you do know where you are
In Connie's Bar

She said that she was a Canada girl
And she told us her Momma was sick
Didn't know if she'd get back before it took her
Well the borders tough
Yeah she'd had enough
The election changed some things
Didn't know if that would mean she had to go home

Well I overheard her speak some words about her old man
Said he used to wear a patch a long way back

Well they don't wear suits
And they play rough cards
They have old tattoos and faded scars
But you do know where you are
In Connie's Bar

I felt safe in that place
I felt wild and free and brave
Well I left that bar singing Amazing Grace

Well they don't wear suits
And they play rough cards
They have old tattoos and faded scars
But you do know where you are
In Connie's Bar

Every morning we'd all meet by the lockers
Thick as thieves until we learned what love was

It might have hurt but it brought us together

I wanna believe in the words I write
So I'm gonna carry on with my life
Forget all the hours I won't get back
And get used to the sad old fact

I'm gonna write this anyway and this ones for you

Oh no

Woah-oh

Tried to write a song that they'll like
I've wasted hours and days and days
So I'll just write a song they won't play

lucy spraggan - end of the world

But this is it
The end of the world
The countdown's begun
The meteor just flew in front of the sun
And it's been confirmed
So turn off the news
I am so lucky to be here with you
No one I'd have preferred
And we're not concerned
It's just you and me at the end of the world

The bar is almost empty people shot off in their cars
But the old man's in the corner and he's there still playing guitar
But he's playing Auld Lang Syne
We put a fifty in the juke box and play our favourite songs
And we just start jumping and dancing and singing along
We feel like nothing's wrong

But this is it
The end of the world
The countdown's begun
The meteor just flew in front of the sun
And it's been confirmed
So turn off the news
I am so lucky to be here with you
No one I'd have preferred
And we're not concerned
It's just you and me at the end of the world

Thirty more seconds that's when they say we'll be colliding
I'm sure there's irony somewhere but we can not find it
Turn up the music I've loved you so truly
don't panic now we're alright
Here it comes darling I love you hold tight close your ey

Well that was it
The end of the world
The countdown is done
The meteor crashed down on Earth with a thud
And it was confirmed
So we turned off the news
I was so lucky to be there with you
No one I'd have preferred
And we weren't concerned
It was just you and me at the end of the world

lucy spraggan - home wasn t built in a day

Let sit on the floorboards
And put on some tunes
Argue about
What kind of wallpaper we will use

We've waited a long time for this
And now we are on our way

We have to be patient, dear
Cause home wasn't built in a day

Let's dance in the kitchen
A night on the tiles
So we can feel
Something that we haven't felt in a while

Let's put up that picture
Of you and our friends
Then discover
That that bastard boiler is broken again

We've waited a long time for this
And now we are on our way

We have to be patient, dear
Cause home wasn't built in a day

We're hoping for good times
We've been hanging horse shoes
I can tell you
That there's no room for sadness under this roof

We filled it with music
And plants we've grown
Maybe one day
We could share this space with some kids of our own

We've waited a long time for this
And now we are on our way

We have to be patient, dear
Cause home wasn't built in a day
