Honey Now 04:40
If I said the right words to you now Would you take me to this other world? I only wanna stay for a little while Run into the fields with me honey now Trip and you will feel what it’s all about I’m only here because I feel left out Cos love doesn’t mean the same as happiness Put yourself in my shoes honey now Gotta be your best at the worst of times It’s not a question that’s been on my mind So come inside my head Save me from myself If you’re gonna teach You gotta practice what you preach Go and find a way To better suit your health But go and find another that lets you be yourself You got me in your arms You got me in your arms but you want me in your life Cos love doesn’t mean the same as happiness Pull yourself aside for the greater good Maybe if it’s tried then it’s understood But I don’t think you see things the way I see Please remember this belongs to me So come inside my head Save me from myself If you’re gonna teach You gotta practice what you preach Go and find a way To better suit your health But go and find another that lets you be yourself You got me in your arms You got me in your arms but you want me in your life Love doesn’t mean the same as happiness Love doesn’t mean the same as happiness Love only breaks the dreams of happiness So come inside my head Save me from myself If you’re gonna teach You gotta practice what you preach Go and find a way To better suit your health But go and find another that lets you be yourself You got me in your arms You got me in your arms You got me in your arms but you want me in your life

I’m only saying Your voice is grating I’m all high and mighty from anything That’s not everything that I have I might look like I think I could But I promise you that I can’t Ahhhhhhhhh Gone and wasted I think I’ve saved it But there’s nothing here for the needy people To keep themselves to themselves They’re gonna kill each other and if they don’t I’m gonna help them do it myself I need this I don’t need this now I need this I don’t need this now Ahhhhhhhhhh Wasted decades piling up It’s a shame your best is not enough The pace breaks down for not a lot And it’s safe to assume you’re as good as gone The world is changing I’m lost in space again If I know my luck you won’t give a fuck And you’ll take it all in your stride I won’t say what you think of me Cos I’m scared that I’ll get it right But there’s nothing here for the lonely people To keep themselves to themselves They’re gonna kill each other and if they don’t Then I’ll probably do it myself I need this I don’t need this now I need this Just don’t need this now Ahhhhhhhhhh

They say it always comes so easy How come you never wanted much from me? No one should ever lose their minds These things are always so damn hard to find Why should I want money growing old? You leave this life, you leave it all The stranger things I have will come and go You give up less, you get a little more No one should ever lose their minds These things are always so damn hard to find No one was ever living easy How come you never wanted much from me? Why should I want money growing old? You leave this life, you leave it all The stranger things I have will come and go You give up less, you get a little more You swear danger is the cause of changes But I don’t think about the things it says to me You swear danger is the cause of changes But I don’t think about the things it says to me Why should I want money growing old? When the stranger things I have will come and go Why should I want money growing old? When the stranger things I have will come and go If it can’t be bought, it can’t be sold

There’s panic in the public park Is someone watching? It’s hard to catch the light With all the curtains drawn in It’s colder since the night’s gone dark I heard you calling From the cradle to the grave I won’t forget this morning While the world’s still tied around my back, I’m a million people Find the way to the nearest broken track, I’m a million people I can feel the pavement start to crack I’m a million people I’m following the same old walk With no correction I’m tired of myself And now I hate reflection There’s panic in the public park Your smile reminded That if ignorance is bliss what’s with the fucking kindness While the world’s still tied around my back, I’m a million people Find the way to the nearest broken track, I’m a million people I can feel the pavement start to crack I’m a million people There’s panic in the public park Is someone watching? It’s hard to catch the sight of love When it’s overflowing Grown older since the lights turned dark No words of warning But for everything you gave There’s no escape for mourning While the world’s still tied around my back, I’m a million people Find the way to the nearest broken track, I’m a million people I can feel the pavement start to crack, I’m a million people

Birthday 04:06
Growing up to lose in a world that’s all bad news is a feeling I could leave behind Anything that’s new is both innocent and true It’s everything that’s good and right It’s love and death and love until death sends us above But there’s love in the eternal life As I take the chance to make it I wish someone had said You’ve only gotta get it right You’ve only gotta get it right You’ve only gotta get it right You’ve only gotta get it right You’ve only gotta get it right You’ve only gotta get it right You’ve only gotta get it right You’ve only gotta get it right This feeling that you’re failing is one that needs erasing Give yourself a little time There’s lines that guide the way that are causing all the strain It’s a caution not an underline So rest the notion that something will change the past And go ahead and get it right There’s love and death and love until death sends us above You’ve only gotta get it right You’ve only gotta get it right You’ve only gotta get it right You’ve only gotta get it right You’ve only gotta get it right You’ve only gotta get it right You’ve only gotta get it right You’ve only gotta get it right Well it’s your birthday and I wanna make you happy It’s your birthday and I don’t think that you should be alone

All my life This is what I wanted to be And if it’s through I might be scared Of what this is coming to All these days They’re gonna put pay to your raise And if that’s the view I should prepare Not everyone’s gonna pull through I’m in love with you I’m no stranger to the truth I’m in it for the only thing keeping me right Same designs It's not what I wanted to be But if it's you Then I might be scared Of what mine is coming to I’m in love with you I’m no stranger to the truth I’m in it for the only thing keeping me right All my dreams and regrets They don’t ring true to myself And if it’s through I might be scared Of what this is coming to I’m in love with you I’m no stranger to the truth I’m in it for the only thing keeping me right I’m in love with you I’m no stranger to the truth I’m in it it’s the only thing keeping me right I’m in love with you I’m no stranger to the truth I’m in it even if my money’s tight I’m in love you with you I’m no stranger to the truth I’m in it for the only thing keeping me right

All I Need 03:16
Unbeknown to me You delved into my history There’s no hate in me I’m ready to leave You’ve seen it all All laid out Out to see It’s all that I need It’s all that I need The place up above It’s not quite right There I can love And it’s ready to fight You’ve seen it all All laid out Out to see It’s all that I need It’s all that I need You’ve seen it all All laid out Out to see You’ve seen it all All laid out Out to see It’s all that I need It’s all that I need

Don’t look back Victoria And hold on to the feeling, don’t The past is past, no blood on our hands We’ll wash the red from the rag No cradle cries We’ll cry instead All in good time We’ll raise our heads Don’t look back Victoria Don’t hold on to the doctors note The past is past, no blood on our hands What good’s a child when there’s cobwebs in the purse-strings And I can’t come calling No cradle cries We’ll cry instead All in good time We’ll raise our heads Don’t look back Victoria Don’t look back to a time when It was pulling on our heartstrings And we both felt like falling No cradle cries We’ll cry instead All in good time We’ll raise our heads

See you falling out of line How could you ever go and change Destined to never change the world And always end up facing down Seen you’re still dialling all the 9’s To save another soul the same When all is said and done, I need you To find another way out Don’t turn off with a fade out When all is said and done, I need you To find another way out Don’t turn off with a fade out Falling for 40 thousand miles To save another soul the same All and all you made the call and still… I’m made to feel the one to blame See you still love to make the sign That maybe something’s gonna give When all is said and done, I need you To find another way out Don’t turn off with a fade out When all is said and done, I need you To find another way out Don’t turn off with a fade out See you falling out of line again You’re never gonna change Destined to never change the world And always end up on the ground When all is said and done, I need you To find another way out Don’t turn off with a fade out When all is said and done, I need you To find another way out Don’t turn off with a fade out
10.
Raise my head to above my shoulders Don't think about it so much Try to reduce all tears to tears This time next year Go to bed when I feel like sleeping Buy the car that’s in my head Let certain people disappear This time next year We’ll be gone Not only in my mind It will be gone This time next year All chores will become my pleasure Play Mary on repeat She screams softly into my ear More hope, less fear ‘Cos somewhere in my tragedy There’s love that pain empowers And should this feeling come to past The future could be ours And we’ll be gone Not only in my mind It will be gone This time next year

about

Scottish indie-rock band Neon Waltz today release their new single ‘Thoughts / Dreams / Regrets’. They also today announce their second album, ‘Honey Now’, out 1st September via Fierce Panda. The band will also be touring the UK this coming autumn, with dates to be announced soon.

Returning with their first release in three years, the stirring track welcomes a new era for the band with a heavy impact. A track that details change and the vulnerability that accompanies it, it is the
direct effect of the band’s reshaping and a reframing of the situation as the closing of one chapter and the beginning of another.

The band say of the track: “After the first album, the band changed from 6 members to 4 in a really short space of time, it felt like it was falling apart. In a way it literally was. Some of the
lines are so directly about our band situation but almost all of them were written to be applied to any situation in life that can be made better by a simple reframing. This was the song that probably made us realise we had what we needed to do some of this record on our own. The drums were recorded in a tiny store room in the middle of our hometown on a lunch break from a day job”

Alongside the single, the band also today announce their second album ‘Honey Now’, which will be released on 1st September via Fierce Panda. The album shows the band shaking things up and moving on and figuring out different ways to bring the songs to life. Over the Covid lockdown, the band had time to reflect on the disillusions of the music industry they had formed. Through this period of silence, they were able to regroup and have their faith restored by a few kind people who helped put the album together on a shoestring budget. Through songs that talk about fears, loss and finding yourself, ‘Honey Now’ places the band exactly where they belong, with a refreshed outlook and a new sense of purpose.

Jordan Shearer (Vocals)
Kevin Swanson (Guitars)
Jamie Swanson (Guitars)
Darren Coghill (Drums & Percussion)
