Parachute
03:34

It is me.
I am here.
Does it make you glad?
It burns.
Yes it burns.
It burns so deep and bright.
I cannot make it right, make it right.
Catch me.
I don’t wanna touch the ground I’m frightened.
Of the things that I might find when landed.
Can you keep me high above the roof? My parachute.
I cried.
I cried.
I cried so hard that night.
I couldn’t make it right, make it right.
Catch me.
I don’t wanna touch the ground I’m frightened.
Of the things that I might find when landed.
Can you keep me high above the roof? My parachute.

Not Alone
03:39

I’m not alone now. I feel your curiosity.
Now you’re in my breathing.
It’s been some time now. I feel you wake inside of me.
Now you’re in my bleeding.
You keep on calling me time and time again.
You keep on chasing me until the bitter end.
You keep on pushing me more than I can bend.
You’re wanting more from me but I am not your friend.
You saw me sleeping. You caught me in my fantasy.
Now you’re in my needing.
You keep on calling me time and time again.
You keep on chasing me until the bitter end.
You want my company but I cannot pretend.
You’re wanting more from me but I am not your friend.
You keep on calling me time and time again.
You keep on chasing me until the bitter end.
You keep on pushing me more than I can bend.
You’re wanting more from me but I am not your friend.

Stay With Me
04:37

Will one of you stay?
Will one of you stay here with me?
Will one of these days
Will one of these days end peacefully?
Will one of you stay?
Will one of these suns please rise again?
Will one of these days
Come to me with a happy end?
All I wanna do is hold you.
All I wanna do is love you.
Will one of you stay?
Will one of you stay here with me?
Will one of these games
Will one of these games end playfully?
All I wanna do is hold you.
All I wanna do is love you.

Run Away
04:05
|
|||
What is here right in front of me?
Nothing’s clear. Nothing here to help me see.
Ooooooohhh
Did you think I could make it right?
Did you need me to help us through this night?
Ooooooohhh
I can run away.
Take my heart and run, run away.
I can see you have closed the door.
What am I at this party for?
Oooooooohhh
I can run away.
Take my heart and run, run away.

Lift
05:06
|

I saw you. I liked you.
I brought you home with me.
So new. So pretty.
I brought you home with me.
Lift your face.
Lift your heart.
And I brought the water.
And I brought the food.
But I forgot to put you in the corner.
In the sunny corner of my room.
Lift your face.
Lift your heart.
See the light.
And there you withered.
And there you cried.
And there you begged me to open up the curtain.
To open up the window to the outside.
Lift your face.
Lift your heart.
See the light.

Hurt You Too
02:58
|
|||
People say that we’re the lucky two.
But you and I have got some work to do.
I am hungry for security.
But you are nice to everyone but me.
I love you. I love you.
But you hurt me, so I’ll hurt you too.
I am trying not to be that girl.
But you and I come from two different worlds.
You see things so black and white it’s clear.
When I’m just trying to see through my own fears.
I love you. I love you.
But you hurt me, so I’ll hurt you too.
We’re far from the world we knew.
I need something more from you.
I love you. I love you.
But you hurt me, so I’ll hurt you too.

"A mercurial talent, Jessica has created songs with real depth. Listening to the album is a full-bodied experience: theatrical and intimate, operatic and haunting, raw and urgent, at once dark and contemplative and inspiring. It’s pop music with a difference." - Ashleigh Wilson (Arts Editor - The Australian) ... more
