If I get knocked down,
Will I get up again?
I used to think I will,
But these days
I'm pretty sure I won't.
If you shoot me down,
Will it dent my confidence?
If you turn me down,
What's the consequence?
Will I be okay or spiral down again?
I kinda hope I don't.
If you let me down
Will I blame myself?
Will I twist the thought into a knife and drive it deep into the heart of my mental health?
I'll say out loud "I am Okay and I'll deal with it"
But we both know I won't.

The renditions of these songs are so beautiful and raw. While I love the originals, these stripped down versions show so much feeling from Laura and it just pierces your soul. Love love love. Thanks! supashoppa
Discovered She makes war from the Songwriter's suite podcast. Been listening for weeks daily on Spotify at work, so had to buy th cd.
Beautifully sung, catchy and melodic. At the moment, this is looking like my favourite album of 2016 Christopher Rollason
