I wanna shake shake shake shake shake you loose At least I think think think that’s what I wanna do You’ve been rattling around inside my brain I gotta shake you loose before I go insane Oh this is so like me And you’re so distracting There’s a whole lot of people It’s a big ol world I’m just a slightly above average girl Always looking for something to occupy my mind Well of course of course of course of course of course I would find Something to distract me Of course its happening Well it does no good to wonder whether I’m the only one who feels that tether I’m testing out the strength of this rope The tenacity of my foolish hope Well it’s been a while since I felt the rapture You know there’s always gonna be a greener pasture Well the grass on the other side might be greener And there’s always a chance someone else might be keener There’s always a chance For some new romance Devour with a glance The power of a dance Don’t wanna shake shake shake shake shake you loose Oh but I think think think that’s what I have to do Don’t wanna shake

Free To Roam 03:11
I went to another land, sight unseen The man was tall and his eyes were green His hair was red and his body lean I asked him about the queen He bought me a drink and we started to talk Then we went for a little walk Asked me was I afraid I’d be outlined in chalk I said, how’d you like to have your world rocked? What the hell, I’ll let you take me home I’ll make you keen and moan Tomorrow comes, you’ll be alone And I’ll be free to roam I forgot to ask, said his name was Tom Went to a hotel and we got it on Touched me right, yeah turned me on I took off just before the sun What the hell, I’ll let you take me home You’ll make me kick and moan Tomorrow comes, you’ll be alone And I’ll be free to roam You took the high road and I took a low dose And I suppose you got there before me All good things have to end, I don’t think we’ll be good friends You don’t have to pretend to adore me What the hell, I’ll let you take me home I’ll make you kick and moan Tomorrow comes, I’ll be alone And you’ll be free to roam All alone and unemployed For a couple hours he filled the void Like a silent film on celluloid Got burned up and destroyed What the hell, I’ll let you take me home I’ll make you kick and moan Tomorrow comes, I’ll be alone And you’ll be free to roam What the hell, I’ll take you home I’ll make you scream and moan Tomorrow comes, I’ll be alone But I’ll be free to roam

Tough Love 03:18
I love a hopeless tragedy I love a lost cause I sing dissonant harmonies I take long odds You say it’s impossible, but that’s not hard enough I’ve always been a sucker for tough love Give me your tough love I like it rough love Give me your heart I want it bad enough I said I like it rough Give me your heart Sex is just an exodus, why act like it’s so precious For something that’s so easy, it sure leaves a lot of messes My only law is entropy, I’m always chasing chaos Stillness is my enemy Inertia will decay us Give me your tough love I like it rough love Give me your heart I want it bad enough I said I like it rough Give me your heart Never said I was well-adjusted Just blow it up and pick through the wreckage Make sure you mix your message when you go I can’t resist a challenge Have to upset the balance Have to shed the extra ballast don’t you know Don’t you know Give me your tough love I like it rough love Give me your heart I want it bad enough I said I like it rough Give me your heart

Was it just some kind of spell I was under Up til then, I only wondered What it might feel like I’ve got a whole lot of new information And a whole new set of complications Now I know what it feels like Well it seemed like a good idea at the time The soft press of your mouth on mine The look in your incandescent eyes I don’t regret it and I can’t forget it But I’m just not sure where we left it What’s on your mind There’s so much I don’t know about you, but I want to And so many things I want to, but can’t do Things I wanna say next time I’m alone with you But I don’t have the nerve to Not sure what to call it, but I’d like to explore Have a little time behind closed doors To find out what it feels like Just a little taste but I want more Thirst can be hard to endure Once you know what it feels like There’s so much I don’t know about you, but I want to And so many things I want to, but can’t do Things I wanna say next time I’m alone with you What if it turned out to be the best night you’ve ever had It felt to good to be wrong, felt too good to be right It felt like heaven in your arms, yeah, if only for the night I tried to just box it up and tuck it away Should have known it would burst out of me some day Just had to know what it feels like Well it seemed like a good idea at the time The soft press of your skin on mine The look in your incandescent eyes That tattoo was a surprise Well we all have our past lives And you don’t know the half of mine There’s so much I don’t know about you, but I want to And so many things I want to, but can’t do Things I wanna do next time I’m alone with you It’s so hard not to touch you But I know I’m not supposed to

Loyalty 03:45
It’s colder where you are, in fact it’s freezing You’re there with someone you’re this close to leaving She’s eager to please, but never quite pleasing You may be relieved to hear that I’m bleeding It’s hotter than hell here, but it always is And we found in each other a secret oasis Change is too hard, so you’re choosing stasis You go on and stay hers, and I’ll stay his She’s loyal and she loves you She forgives your mistakes We had our chance, We didn’t have what it takes You dealt your hand But I named the stakes One way or the other someone’s heart’s gonna break Something’s gotta give here, but we just don’t give up And no matter how much, it’s never enough I told you before, I like it rough So come over here now, and fill my cup She’s loyal and she loves you She forgives your mistakes All we do is dream, Yeah, we didn’t have what it takes It got out of hand We both made mistakes One way or the other someone’s heart’s gonna break We should call it quits, but you know you can’t resist me And if I was gone, I know you would miss me We are both seekers, but it’s no great mystery You were mine since the first time you kissed me

about

Good Witch Los Angeles, California

Forged from a collaboration between singer Rose Shawhan and producer Raymond Richards (Local Natives, Avid Dancer), LA-based Good Witch breaks hearts and lights fires with their dreamy mood-pop. They conjure shades of Lykke Li, Alvvays, and Garbage with slinky bass, anthemic drums, shimmery synthesizers, and cinematic strings in disarmingly honest indie rock songs with a lush edge. ... more
