the smallest thing can split my mind in two i wish everything came as easily as loving you
isn't it fun how i completely disappear daily and make it hard to see why you love me at all?
isn't it funny when i can't breathe insist that we both leave your own birthday party cos of nothing at all?
i wanna dance freely like others do i wish everything came as easily as loving you
and i hate myself today and i hate being seen this way everybody wants to be told i'll be ok but i thought that was what they're supposed to sayFriendly Dark - a song by Ollie MNOllie MN2018-01-08 | a song about memory and nostalgia and all that fun stuff.

there's an image in my mind might be memory or dream we are bathed in golden light we are lit like a movie scene
when i think of all our days i wish that they would all come clear if i could travel through the haze if i could conjure you up right here
can we ever get back will we ever get back to then?
tell me that we'll go back you and i will go back and do it all again
i go looking in the silence searching in the space between the trees there are days when i find us lingering in the sunshine through the leaves
when the friendly dark opens up inside of me i will not give in i've got people to see
can we ever get back will we ever get back to then?
tell me that we'll go back you and i will go back and do it all again

but the scariest thing of all is i was once just like you one day you're gonna fall life is gonna break you too
so no i don't have any treats no chocolate fudge no fizzy sweets look at my clothes and thinning hair you think i have a thing to spare?
that stench stinging your nose is alcohol, shame and regret you too shall decompose and choke to death on student debt
credit card bills gum disease microwave meals help me please
one day we'll be the same buried bones and a half-remembered name
mock me while you can soon you'll be fidget-spinning in your grave young man

lyrics: there's a man who works at my local cafe i seem him almost every single day i'm pretty sure that his name is tim but it seems like i mean nothing to him
i greet him with a smile and a hello but it's clear that he can't wait until i go not sure what i did to hurt him so but i certainly won't rest until i know
oh tim i don't need to be your best friend i just want this hostility to end i'm the only customer you treat this way if i offended you tim please say
just say oh tim

luv u xten minute song challenge - improvised maschine jamOllie MN2017-08-09 | i gave myself ten minutes to make a little instrumental using the Native Instruments Maschine.
i had a little acoustic song planned but unfortunately my throat has been hurtin' so singing wasn't possible. will save it for next week. seeya then!
during a panic attack at my local KFC i'm comforted by the fact that the wifi's free so i can google "what the fuck is wrong with me?" why do i struggle with things that should come so naturally?
oh how do you keep the fear away? feel it rising in my throat every day it's hard to explain you're not okay without sounding like the worst tumblr cliche
some days there'll be rain it won't always be the same some days there'll be pain but you'll be yourself again
late at night i walk the streets alone bathed in lamplight miles away from home
i thought i'd find meaning in the night sky but it's so damn cold and my phone's about to die not sure if there's much beyond you and i so let's just grow old and never ask whyPatreon page now live!Ollie MN2017-07-19 | PATREON LINK: patreon.com/OllieMN hello my fellow swamp creatures! i have set up a patreon with lots of cool rewards. please consider contributing some money to help me continue to produce regular hot 'n' fresh content without worrying about homelessness!!!! thank you so much for all your support, it genuinely means a huge amount to me.

lyrics: at sun down in this old town it's hard to feel too blue
but when streetlights flicker into life the past swims into view
take me back i want to see it again before i die that fabled land pre-wifi when the world didn't fill me with fear and Brendan Fraser still had a career
at sun down in this old town i'm half the world away on a half-remembered day
searching for the joy i'm so tired of being my mother's broken boy
but those faces live in old cassettes and they fade like smoke from cigarettes and they leave me on my own again why can't now be more like then?song for the sleepless #1Ollie MN2017-07-12 | SUPPORT ME ON PATREON: patreon.com/OllieMN twitter: twitter.com/OllieMcKendrick instagram: https://www.instagram.com/olliemckend... snapchat: snapchat.com/add/omckendrick

hello friends. i decided to use one of my many sleepless nights to make a lil video for you all. i hope you enjoy it and that the sandman treats you well. he's an absolute dick to me

lyrics: i should be in bed but i'm sitting here instead with a stomach full of dread and a list of words unsaid
maybe if i finish this boxset i'll have figured out a way to clear my student debt maybe by the time the morning rears its head i'll feel ready to get up and face the world again
but my dreams are always cruel to me all my fears unfolding in HD and i dread all the thoughts that the nights bring i'm not safe til i hear those songbirds sing

just a quick lil song for you today. i got about 80% through a more elaborate video before suddenly deciding it was irredeemably shit so i quickly recorded this instead.
let me know if you'd be interested in some more acousticy type songs - they're much easier to make so i could hopefully upload them more frequently.
luv uturning meows into music: a song for embittered cat ownersOllie MN2017-06-18 | SUPPORT ME ON PATREON: patreon.com/OllieMN
after months of being interrupted mid-recording by my cat, i decided to try incorporate his yelps into a song. a sample of his meow (usually warped in some way) is playing at almost every point in the song.
you might say "hey ollie, this was an enormous waste of time and effort", and you would be correct.
still, i hope you enjoy it at least a bit.
LYRICS:
it wasn't supposed to be this way i thought we'd frolic, laugh and play
no
why do you stalk me like i'm prey? i treat you well your food's gourmet
i thought i had the superior brain i thought i was king top of the food chain
and out of fear of being alone i brought some chaos into my home
and now oh god i miss the silence i'm a hopeless slave to a furry tyrant i dream of fleeing in the night but i'm on my knees cleaning up your shite
before you i was not an early riser i wish it was legal to feed you some form of tranquilliser
why do i endure all this pain just to earn your disdain? you're driving me insane but i love you all the same
finthe saddest clown - a song composed on the OP-1Ollie MN2017-05-24 | SUPPORT ME ON PATREON: patreon.com/OllieMN
hey youtube!!! i set myself a time limit to get this done so i could upload something asap. if you don't hate it then perhaps i will do this sorta thing more often.
everything you hear apart from my voice comes from the OP-1. i recorded it into Logic then did some processing/mixing etc. also i pitched it all down one semitone for REASONS.
sincere thanks for all the nice comments. it genuinely means a lot.
lyrics: when all you really do is sleep all day you find yourself with nothing interesting to say
oh boy your self loathing shtick is wearing thin it's time to reinvent for the sake of content
oh we've heard it all before being miserable's a bore can't you start to learn parkour? we expected so much more
you will never be pewdiepie you'll exist and then you'll die oh your life's been one long sigh you've let the whole world pass you by
instagram your best frown livestream a meltdown you're the saddest clown around you're the saddest clown in town
eat dinner in your dressing gown if you sing it then it sounds profound you're the saddest clown around you're the saddest clown in townwish the world away - a song by dishevelled manchild Ollie MNOllie MN2017-04-08 | SUPPORT ME ON PATREON: patreon.com/OllieMN
it has been far too long since my last upload. i prostrate myself at your feet and beg for forgiveness. if only my whole schtick was less labour-intensive (and being less of a lazy scumrat would probably help too). i envy those people whose thing is just talking about how stoned they are to camera.
lyrics: today i wished the world away from inside my flat and almost made an instagram account for my cat i want to dance and strut i want to pretend that this week-old pizza hut is not my oldest friend
but you know with the sky falling down in six months we'll all live underground
and i think that's where i'll thrive i've been training all my life assuming i'm still alive and there's at least a decent wi(-fi connection)

this is a song about impermanence. it's a little short, but maybe i can just pretend that's some kind of metaphor.
my cat continues to torment me and restrict every facet of my daily life. i cannot remember what it feels like to be unburdened by stress. but at the same time, look at his little paws!!!! anyway, have an acceptable week xoxo
lyrics: what if this is all i am? a poorly-drawn diagram of a man with a Shrek-sized gut and child-like hands
when will it be my time to go? could it be tomorrow? baby no i wanna live some more at least till Toy Story 4 y'know
all of this content won't pay my rent so i'll work in a cafe and sell a lung on ebay

my intention was to post this on valentine's day (obviously), but my cat had a bout of intense diarrhoea so i had to spend my time cleaning up his excrement instead. don't worry, i'll get him back.
