Go Figure Lately my minds a muddle Don’t say you need a cuddle I’m tired of looking for other ways out of this Call me a protest singer Find me a pigeon hole I sick of watching all my friends lose hope to rock and roll. I’m sick of scrolling screens I’m sick of broken hearts Tired of opinion pieces, tired of looking at the past Where’s the promised land? Where’s the long term plan There must be more to life than wealth I hope you understand Maybe its rational Embrace the capital It’s just the world that we live Maybe I should find, more fucks to give Am I a lost cause? I just need more Time to figure it out When did all my hopes turn in to doubts? Go Figure it out. I walk down to the beach When everything gets heavy Finding a place to escape feels rather necessary I don’t mind it here, but I don’t love it too But I’m ok with that It helps me to unwind my blues Stress is a disease, it’s eating all us up We’re all worrying that maybe we are not enough You tell me that I am and that’s what gets me through I’m still sad but thats ok as long as I have you Maybe its rational Embrace the capital It’s just the world that we live Maybe I should find, more fucks to give Am I a lost cause? I just need more Time to figure it out When did all my hopes turn in to doubts? Go Figure it out.

Some Regrets Take deep breaths Take your time It’s hard to find the room to make some piece of mind. Always on Maybe that’s whats wrong? Forever hoping for a magic wand. I know I’m not alone in thinking How the hell did I get here?! For better or for worse, staying clear. Some regrets Is our time much better spent? It’s an omen Are we broken? Take deep breaths Pay no mind It’s hard enough to settle at the best of times Sometimes wrong That’s what makes you strong Rounding off the corners as you roll along I know I’m not alone in hoping to get better every day To “Come Alive Again” Bring the light Let it burn in me so bright That the darkness Is a past tense I don’t want to get old and be counting all the things that I’ve lost Without any comprehension of how my own endeavours Played a part in all the chances I’ve scoffed. I’m tired of living in fear I’m tired of not making it clear Tired of hesitations Tired of reservations and hearing what I wanted to hear. But maybe when I get to 60 I’ll be thankful for this time. Free my mind. Bring the light Let it burn in me so bright That the darkness Is a past tense

Ebb Forget everything your learned And follow your feet Stray from the herd If that’s what you need Nothing ventured Nothing gained Feed no ego Fuel no blame Every day’s a new day To turn your back on old ways If this is an hour glass Let’s make this moment last Ebbing away, every day Make your mark Follow your heart As much as you can Stray from the herd But not from your plans Nothing ventured Nothing gained Feed no ego Fuel no blame Every day’s a new day To turn your back on old ways If this is an hour glass Let’s make this moment last Ebbing away, every day Make your mark Forget all the times you’ve hurt And know that you’re loved Stay with the herd When light turns to dusk Nothing ventured Nothing gained Feed no ego Fuel no blame Every day’s a new day To turn your back on old ways If this is an hour glass Let’s make this moment last Ebbing away, every day Make your mark

40 Everywhere you’re looking there’s children skipping school Maybe they’re just products of their parents Ignore them at your peril Don’t take them all as fools One day they’ll grow up and you’ll regret it Maybe in the future a scientist survives And builds an ark for everyone It’s your only place to hide All the other options Bring us to our knees It’s 40 days and 40 nights For 40 years and 40 generations wide Everywhere you’re looking there’s children skipping class Property has poisoned everyone of us Storing up your treasures, on someone else’s debt One day you’ll grow up and you’ll regret it Somewhere in the future a bubbles gonna burst and all your shrewd investments they will crumble into dirt All the other options Bring us to our knees It’s 40 days and 40 nights For 40 years and 40 generations wide Listen to the youngers and what they have to say Most of them are old enough to know our rotten ways. All the other options? Blind stupidity and 40 days and 40 nights For 40 years and 40 generations wide

Hold Tight I’m a day dreamer I’m a blind believer Looking for a reason why Trying to put back all the pieces That make up my frazzled mind I’m a lapse rebel Testing my own metal Looking round for things to do At my age I find it harder but This horse ain’t made for glue It’s a familiar story Only it’s a different time Keep faith in redemption Or whatever gets you by When you lose faith in it all Hold a little tighter Having doubts Is just figuring it out Better start running Oblivion is coming Maybe in a little while… Spend your whole life round in circles Wondering a reason why You can be forgiven You can start living All you have to do is try Rip your old life into pieces and don’t think about it twice It’s a familiar story Only it’s a different time Keep faith in redemption Or whatever gets you by When you lose faith in it all Hold a little tighter Having doubts Is just figuring it out

Rewild It don’t feel natural to me. Does it feel natural to you? Heavy air that I breathe Heavy skies that I view I see the birds way up high Getting confused by the light From artificial sun Blurring day and night Rarely does a day go by Where I’m not reminded of lost times It don’t feel easy to me Does it feel simple to you? Circuit update Function renew I just can’t keep up with the pace But staying away doesn’t feel Like being a part of life I see no appeal. Rarely does a day go by Where I’m not reminded of lost times Obfuscate me Evaporate me I’ve been thinking lately That disappearing ain’t the way Fertilise Re wild me Remind me That there is beauty in this place Rarely does a day go by Where I’m not reminded of lost times
