about

In keeping with the intended vinyl listening experience for a digital format, 'C Side Volume 1 - Dark Waters - Side 1' acts digitally as a vinyl or tape recording would behave on your favourite old school player.

Side 1 track listing:

1. Mirrors
Dealing explicitly with the internal effects of depression, narcissism and self-loathing, Mirrors first appeared in 2007 as a written offering to 'A Name Will Come', and again in 2009 as a proposed track to 'Flowers For Lily' but didn't make the cut for either group.

2. Suspenderboys
Written while living in a seaside cottage, Suspenderboys was always intended to be interpreted only by the listener. It bears witness to the underworld of outcast sexuality and the extroversion of amoral repression while reminding the listener that life is a game, and acceptance for who you are is never too far.
This version of Suspenderboys was created and recorded by Jimmy in 2009, however multiple versions would be released by Flowers For Lily and Love Hate Rebellion in later years.


3. Ever
Ever was a sad punk rock track capturing the dark story of an anxiety affected individual. The sufferer held the consistent expectation that their relationships would fail and they would be left alone. The song was offered to 'A Name Will Come' in 2006 without success.

lyrics

1. MIRRORS

What's this fascination
With your face
It's an oscillation
In eternal space
The seed aborting
Spilling grace
There is no escaping
Anyway

As I'm breaking into shards
Pick me up and cut yourself
In this way we can be one
In the blood and pieces
Use me like a broken doll
Our romantic rock and roll
Through the vein and up the arm
I will leave you with a

Let it out
For the feeling
Isn't mutual
Like a mirror
I am no reflection
Of anything
Or anyone
But what you choose
To see

As I'm breaking into shards
Pick me up and cut yourself
Through the vein and up the arm
In the blood and pieces
Use me like a broken doll
Shattered acid rock and roll
In this way we can be one
I will leave you with a scar




2. SUSPENDERBOYS

Welcome Polly
We always knew
Dreaming of you
Being a man
And it's okay
To wear suspenders

We're so sorry
Foiled true
In our folly
Say we can
Now it's okay
To do it too

Say it's okay to play with Polly

Sorry Polly
It's all true
Good old Tommy
He's in it too
Should we meet up
Maybe make a womb

Hello Polly
We love you
And it's shocking
How much we do it
When you come
Around

Say it's okay to play with Polly



3. EVER

In the silence and the gloom
There is no one else but you
And you alone
Free at home
In the breaking of my heart
I am waiting for your part
To walk in on
The been and gone

Don't you ever walk away
Don't you ever walk away
Don't you walk away
Walk away

Well it's only just a dream
Maybe for you not for me
I'm dreaming now
Asleep in doubt
There is silence in my house
Every picture falling down
Here you start
To break my heart

Don't you ever walk away
Don't you ever walk away
Don't you walk away
Walk away
