Part I: Acceptance and Angst 01:54
lyrics
buy track
Ive got no problem being bored, juvanile and insecure 'cuz im only dragging myself down but I'd break every bone I have bending backwards just to prove to you that I'm capable of more so let these shallow little words blur out the deeper truth just as long as you're aware that I'm not biting this bullet, im being pushed in front of it so lets not kid about what this is We're the beating heart of rotting flesh We're lungs with out a breath We're the echos of a song that tired but couldn't change the world, that couldn't save the worlds and I know your shit scared so please just take my hand and let my heart beat for the both of us

Part II: Denial and Anger 02:47
lyrics
buy track
Were acting like kids acting like adults swining out feet and stairing at the ground and we can both see how pathetic this is to watch ourselves as we run circles, afraid to trip and fall another train ride, with a stomach full of knots and a lack of insite I cant fucking stand not knowing what your thinking so should you ever need me, you always know where you can find me Ill paint our names on a padlock and clip it to the metor street bridge but dogs cant look up, because big al says so and it seems stupid not to give this a go this situations tight, its got its hands on out throats but Im not out of breath just yet I would never hesitate, to wish this was something different but I would never wish away everthing that youve been given Id give you every choice I have, every degree I can turn Because the romance in being free, isnt half what it is when your alone

I waited with baited breath as your eyes skimmed back and forth across the page little did I know my heart and soul would bleed across the floor now ill never sing another song to another girl again because you looked at me with your hazel eyes and said "Jak, can I correct the spelling mistakes"

Jack Holmes image

Jack Holmes Wien, Austria

Some song writers serenade you with beautifully preformed 3 minute mixtures of well-crafted lyrics, skilled playing and angelic singing. Jack Holmes is not one of these song writers. The exiled Englishman, now seeking refuge in the streets of Vienna, is to Acoustic Music what losing your virginity is in comparison to your repertoire of sexual encounters; fast, loud and just a little awkward. ... more
