You act like there’s nothing Hiding behind those eyes My mouth can’t find the right words My helpless heart can never sing a lie You’re the winner You always come first You’re the rain to my dry thirst The lightning follow by the thunder You’re a vision like no other I won’t leave my love at the door I won’t miss the chance like I did before I won’t leave my love at the door Cause I’ve got a feeling that I can’t ignore I remember drinking A little more than I care to admit Through the fog you came along Asking me for a place to sit When I worked up the breath to speak I could only mumble Oh, honey, I was feeling oh so meek I knew you could make cities crumble I won’t leave my love at the door I won’t miss the chance like I did before I won’t leave my love at the door Cause I’ve got a feeling that I can’t ignore I won’t leave my love at the door I won’t miss the chance like I did before I won’t leave my love at the door Cause I’ve got a feeling that I can’t ignore

My mind is on the moon I can feel this city move I’m listening to you Your words are like honey Don’t throw your love away I know you kid yourself But you’re a star You’re too good for this bar Here comes another one 45 minutes and then you’re done Here comes another one Promise they’ll make you into someone You don’t get the money Or diamonds that shine That’s just business That’s not my design We just bleed out We’ve got you to thank While our pain runs uphill I can’t put exposure in the bank Here comes another one 45 minutes and then you’re done Here comes another one Promise they’ll make you into someone Give it all away for free It’s all gotta go I’ll pay off my loan somehow But I’m glad you enjoyed the show Yeah, I’m glad you enjoyed the show Here comes another one Here comes another one Here comes another one Promise they’ll make you into someone

When she wakes and walks out that door I’ll be lonely once again I’ll beg her to stay Help me get through the day The thought of you isn’t enough I don’t have a cent in my old grey jeans I’ll borrow lie and cheat just for you I’d like to live beyond my means Like in those glossy magazines But I hope that I’m enough Tell me how many more days will it take? I’ve been waiting for such a long time Call me when the fight is done and dusted I’ll be here on the other side of the line I’ll give you a piece of my heart To fill the gap he left in yours I’ll give you what I can To make this better I’ll wait here while you break his heart Let him down, slow and easy When the crying stops I’ll help you pick up the pieces By then you would’ve had enough Tell me how many more days will it take? Till I kiss those lips so divine Call me when the fight is done and dusted I’ll be here on the other side of the line I’ll be here on the other side of the line

Don't Hurry 03:43
My head is stale my mind is blank My face is pale with myself to thank Don’t hurry I’m only hurting for a while ‘til I get off a this turn style I can’t stop spinning round and around I’ve been looking - in the lost and found For something that can make me feel tall I never wanted this at all It’s further than stars you see But I, see it so clearly It's a smile painted with my finger This lipstick drawn on my face in the mirror Don’t hurry I’m only hurting for a while I’ll keep swinging with sad smile It’s further than stars you see But I see it so clearly Don’t hurry I’m only hurting for a while Walking this lonely mile
5.
Medicine 03:08
Maybe I’ll hide away Maybe I’ll lock the door Tear up the carpet and dig through the floor Bury my head in dirt I’m busy now Come back later when I’m sober I’m holding onto the doorway I lose my grip, I slip Medicine, Medicine I’ve been thinking for a while To keep my smile I need to see my light sway and flicker Can I get it any quicker? I’m halfway there I just need a little more One more hit then I’ll stop I want what I came for Medicine, Medicine Medicine, Medicine All I need is one little high One little drop One little low Then I’ll even out Medicine, Medicine Medicine, Medicine
6.
Coffee Song 03:42
It’s a short walk from my house Just down Gilbert Road The building is old and the chairs All look worn or stolen If I knew what good coffee was I’d tell you how it is I’ll get my morning bus from anywhere but there From what I remember It’s pretty nice inside I’ve tried blocking out all the details I’ll only look in from the outside Caught a glance and I dug in my pocket For an excuse to leave I won’t go in No I won’t go back there It’s up with the trend I won’t pretend That I’m glad they have a selection of milk If I cut off the power And let it go sour Then the place might just close down If I knew what good coffee was, I’d tell you how it is It’s more than I can bare knowing she works there I walked right in, sat right down Caught your eye And I threw mine down And I buried my hands in my face, in my shirt My stomach fell to the floor Now I’m dragging it to the door Eagerly reaching out
7.
Bathtub Gin 03:32
I’ll be here with you Through these dust bowl towns Till my eyes hang off my head Till my feet don’t touch the ground I’ll be here with you You said you’d be by my side Though broken and narrow times Through borrowed cash and petty crimes Liquor stores to gold mines I’ll be by your side Standing in the sun on the edge of the border Beaten from the bathtub gun It’s us against them And we know how to win It’s us against them And we know how to win I’ll be here waiting For the day when they come Until then, I’ll be living high Oh honey I’ll be living high Standing in the sun on the edge of the border Beaten from the bathtub gun It’s us against them And we know how to win It’s us against them And we know how to win
8.
Ride away Leave here You don’t need his bitter heart When you’re hurting just take your time You’re numb to the feeling now No stranger to lonesome calls Eyes that a pools of diamonds And a tear is bound to fall It’s plain to see Looking back You’ve made mistakes in the past But trusting him will be the last Helpless, loveless and broken All the while it was a lie It’s hard to say it outloud But it’s harder to say goodbye And All you could do was cry All you could do was cry Shaken to the ground All the weight floats in your head There’s no replacing All the words that have been said All you could do was cry All you could do was cry
9.
When the little rosella stops singing Tell me it’ll be alright It’ll be alright When the phone won’t stop ringing Tell me it’ll be alright It’ll be alright High the moon hangs Like a moth to the light I watch it take flight Long the road may be But the waiting isn’t always easy If my knees buckle underneath it all Tell me it’ll be alright It’ll be alright When I can’t catch my breath walking down the hall Tell me it’ll be alright It’ll be alright Stars in the country burn bright I could look into your eyes Until there’s no more light Love linger here tonight Love linger here tonight

about

Cheersquad Records & Tapes are thrilled to announce the release of Patrick Wilson’s new album ‘It’ll Be Alright’ on 29 September 2023.

Available on limited edition mustard coloured 12” vinyl (100 only), black 12” vinyl or digitally.

When he’s not driving the backbeat or serving six string duties for some of Melbourne’s best alt-country ensembles, drummer, multi-instrumentalist and former butcher Patrick Wilson is busy crafting his own brand of authentic electrified country rock ‘n’ roll.

On his debut long-playing release, the deep feeling writer steps into the spotlight with a collection of tunes that showcase his sweet tenor and keen songcraft. Wilson’s advanced ear for melody, his understanding of the heritage of the country inspired form and his access to players that bring an authentic and deft swagger to the material are the foundations to this impressive and assured debut release.

‘It’ll Be Alright’ is a “self-reflective, and honest exploration into the grieving process associated with the demise of relationships and the coping mechanisms within that.”  He mentions that when considering the songs as a whole collection on a theme, there are multiple references to “drug use, drinking, loss and self-reflection on interactions with past lovers,” which suggests a referencing of past shortcomings to perhaps find a better way forward.

about

Patrick Wilson Melbourne, Australia

There’s a tender, unmistakable charm that lingers in the work of natural-born storyteller, Patrick Wilson​.

“Patrick Wilson is a twang assassin. Beneath his polite, disarming and charming exterior he is a multi-faceted musical ninja, capable of cutting through your heart-strings with a single turn of phrase or a twist of melodic flare.”
- ​Henry Wagons
