I see myself in a darkened glass
Tie myself to the sinking mast
You ain’t who you say you are
I see myself in darkened glass
I see myself in a wide black arch
Pass over air and a liquid lunch
Smoke the seal with a single punch
I see myself in wide black arch
Well I know too well what you can’t handle
Serve it every day with wooden paddle
And a friend to help you shovel it all in
I see myself in darkened glass
Phone call I’m alone at last
If I die on the street, sweep up like plaster
Or maybe I’ll be blown back in the wind
In a plume of white, come apart in the gale
That blows at night and rain back down
On your window pane and rain back down
On your window oh

Catching Matches

I’m gonna leave a good man soon
I’m gonna leave him when I choose
I’m gonna leave when the time suits me right
I’m gonna leave him in middle of the night
I pack my things and go
Take only what I can carry
Goodbye husband, goodbye wife
Goodbye big house, goodbye heart strings
Goodbye little baby, and goodbye long hair
Earring and necklace too, I’m gonna leave you
Gonna leave you and you
I’m going out to run with the big boys now
I’m leaving him in a bad situation
Well I’m going out catching matches now
Let them burn for a second, then flick them to the gutter
In a pile with one another
I’m gonna leave

Take me with you
Let me alone
I’ll be your friend
I want a home
Cos I’m hell bent
I’m hell bent
I’m
I’m gonna let him touch me
Even though he is foul
I feel I am a cannon
Point me out the window now
Now I’m hell bent
I’m hell bent
I’m hell bent
I’m
I was your patience, but you lost me
Now I’m wearing thin
I’m wearing thin, I’m wearing thin
I’m wearing thin
Refrain *All you’re gonna want to do is get back there
We Float – PJ Harvey
We wanted to find love
We wanted success
Until nothing was enough
Until my middle name was excess
And somehow I lost touch
When you went out of sight
When you got lost into the city
Got lost into the night
I was in need of help
Heading to black out
'Til someone told me run on in honey
Before somebody blows your goddam' brains out
You shop-lifted as a child
I had a model's smile
You carried all my hopes
Until something broke inside
But now we float
Take life as it comes
So will we die of shock?
Die without a trial
Die on Good Friday
While holding each other tight
This is kind of about you
This is kind of about me
We just kind of lost our way
But we were looking to be free
But one day we'll float
Take life as it comes

Georgia Knight Melbourne, Australia
Georgia Knight is known for her resonant vocal range which can change in an instant from ear-whisperingly close to frenzied
thrash. Her guitar playing style is similar, with uninhibited chords recognisable in a cover of Big Star’s ‘Kanga Roo’ on an out-of-tune 12 string.
Knight’s roots span trad-folk to grunge, citing Nina Simone, Sandy Denny and instrumental trio Dirty Three as influences.
