I know we have our very own threads for albums, singles, b-sides and tour songs..but we talk about them as a whole then move on, which isn't fair to the ones we really hate

or just in general when it comes to appreciating Delta's work.

I thought for the first one, I'd pick one of the ones that people seem to either love or hate: Bare Hands!

What do you think of the lyrics? Do you like the melody? Could you see it being released? What would the video be like?

Bare Hands

I've got a question on my mind
You can answer in your time
Just don't freeze like a deer in the headlights

Sometimes it's the risk of getting hurt
That's beautiful and worse,
Is being numb feeling nothing at all

A little pain lets you know your alive
We gotta live and love not just survive

Hearts that don't love can't be broken
A dream stays a dream if not woken
If you never bleed then you won't understand
Come pick me red roses with your bare hands

I'm standing right in front of you
But you don't know what to do
It's the fear of thorns that keeps you out of the garden

Be brave, be the fool, you've never been
'cause I'll be here to kiss you skin
Melt me on the path where love could begin

Hearts that don't love can't be broken
A dream stays a dream if not woken
If you never bleed then you won't understand
Come pick me red roses with your bare hands

Make me feel I'm worth it
Don't love me with gloves on
Pick me roses roses with your bare hands
Make me feel I'm worth the scratches

Hearts that don't love can't be broken
A dream stays a dream if not woken
If you never bleed then you won't understand
Come pick me red roses with your bare hands

A little pain lets you know you're alive
We gotta live and love not just survive

For those who haven't heard it before
