about

Panic and anxiety while driving inspired this one

lyrics

I can’t wait til this weight has gone
I can’t wait til this weight has gone
I can’t wait til this weight has gone
This fear, this fear

I’m shaking but I’m talking fine
I’m shaking but I’m talking fine
My hearts racing but I’m talking fine
Distract my thoughts before they get caught
Distract my thoughts

Rear view I see them come in the
Rear view I see them come I lose
Control as I see them come
Their lights shine behind
My eyes they lose their mind
Their lights shine behind

I overtake but I want to stop
I overtake but I want to stop
I’m screaming but I want to stop
I want to stop I want to stop I want to stop…

I can’t wait til this weight has gone
I can’t wait til this weight has gone
I can’t wait til this weight has gone
This fear.

about

Beth Porter Newton Stewart, UK

The songs from When The Lights Are Bright are dark, quirky, charming and ethereal Chamber-Pop, and depict themes such as fear, confusion, money, the weather and the odd cheesy love song, all carried by Beth’s pure and unaffected voice. Marshes have been likened to Cat Power, The Beatles, REM, This Is The Kit, Penguin Cafe Orchestra, Radiohead, The Incredible String Band and The Kinks. ... more
