How come I'm still breathing 'though my heart stopped beating felt like I'd surely died All my limbs are moving but my heads still hurting all of this because you lied I'm alright her on my own again I don't need you to take care of me 'cos your love was just unkind I'm alright her on my own again

Look at Me 04:06
She took his hand there was so much she wanted to say He had her heart and had carefully tucked it away What could she do the moment was passing her by she opened her mouth trying to say the words say them out loud And I don't want to scare you away but I need to tell you right now and theres so much I want you to know so here goes Look at me falling for you Look at me He held her hand there was so much he wanted to say She had his heart and had carefully tucked it away What could he do should he tell her or let it pass by He opened his mouth trying to say the words say them out loud And I don't want to scare you away but I need to tell you right now and theres so much I want you to know so here goes Look at me falling for you Look at me

That Girl 03:51
What you have and what you want are different things Your hearts tied but and its bound by complicating strings There seems to be more to what you say Are you trying to escape my way? I myself have been on both sides of the fence I've lived with the pain and suffered the consequence Should I become your reason to leave To do that I would be someone else, not me thats not me I dont want to be that girl This is how it must be Dont forget to call me when you're free What you have and what you want What you have and what you want

Sunshine 03:52
Sunshine comes after the rain Laughter follows tears caused by pain Smiling that's how you'll find me today Knowing that's how I'm going to stay When I get over you I will get over Sorrow that's what you made me feel Learning that your truth wasn't quite real How long did you think you could go on Playing I'm no fool so I know That I will get over you I will get over you Sunshine comes after the rain Laughter follows tears caused by pain Smiling that's how you'll find me today Knowing that's how I'm going to stay When I get over you I will get over I have got over you

Melt 03:04
Don't want to say the words out loud in case it makes them real cos if I say the words out loud it gives away what I feel it gives away what I feel This has happened so fast can't believe that its real but when you smile and you hold me close I can't deny what I fell I can't deny what I feel The more I get to know you I feel things I've seldom felt I find it hard to tell you but inside you make me melt Don't want to say the words out loud in case it makes them real cos if I say the words out loud you will know what I feel you will know what I feel The more I get to know you I feel things I've seldom felt I find it hard to tell you So listen carefully The more I get to know you I feel things I've seldom felt I find it hard to tell you but inside you make me melt

I saw the things I'd given you spread out on the floor You treated them the same way you treated me With carelessness and disregard it happened so easily Stop and have a look now Are you on your own? Call the man insane You used to write me love songs Well there's no love now Your choice to keep me in the dark shone the light on you Call the man insane Call the man insane I won't rescue you I saw the things I'd given you spread out on the floor
7.
Completely 04:11
I'm up and down I'm all over the place I wonder sometimes how you keep up One minute I'm laughing the next I'm crying but I always feel loved I'm up and down I'm all over the place I wonder how you keep me grounded One minute I flying the next I'm crashing down but I always feel safe I fall into you letting go of control You read me like a book and you know my soul The little things that matter are what you do for me And thats why I love you Completely

Hey, I just wanted to tell you that I'm doing fine and I'm really OK and hey, I just want you to know that I'm OK with things and it's better this way and I need you to know that you're a big jerk and you screwed us away well yeah, thats the end of my message I hope that you're well and you're having a nice day Hey, how you going? I hope that you're happy and you're living well Off the record I hope you're penis drops off and you burn in hell WHAT WERE YOU THINKING???? That I'd be happy and I'd be OK? Well yeah, gotta go now I hope that you're well and you're having a nice day Yes I'm angry Mad as hell but it's something I'll get over You will never change You remain the same Hey, I just wanted to tell you that I'm doing fine and I'm really Ok Actually, I'm quite happy My life's going well and things are going my way I still don't like you but that seems to be getting less every day One day I'll mean it When I hope that you're well and you're having a nice day Yes I was angry Mad as hell But it’s something I’ve got over You will never change You remain the same

Weirdo 04:28
You said "Baby, I can't handle this" I said "Matey, what do you mean?" We've known each other for 5 minutes how far could this have gone? I see you once a week for coffee and now it's all on You said "Maybe, this has gone to fast" I said "Ok, whats happened since I saw you last?" I'm pretty sure it was nothing I said What's going on in your head What's going on in your head How did you come to be a weirdo How did I not see you're a weirdo You said - nothing you're not talking to me I think, oh well C'est la vie

Heaven to Me 04:32
Take things slowly this I know making sure that this is where I want to go I've been burnt down before Built myself up picked myself up off the floor Time with you is heaven to me heaven to me heaven to me The clouds in my head have all broken free that's heaven to me heaven to me I have known you before I was younger and really not quite sure Things have changed now and time has past Lets take things slowly I want to make sure that this lasts Time with you is heaven to me heaven to me heaven to me The clouds in my head have all broken free that's heaven to me heaven to me

about

Mo Blishen Wellington, New Zealand

Mo Blishen is a singer/song writer from Wellington, New Zealand.
Starting in music as a drum machine button pusher and eventually working her way up to ‘real’ percussion, Mo realized that it was a bit tricky writing songs. Picking up the guitar to an average level made that easier.
Mo’s writing is honest, heart felt and at times blunt but always entertaining.
