Electric

Do you really think that we’re good inside all the time?
Do we really know how to survive when we’re dying inside?
Sometimes I think that no one cares
That today’s that day I should have stayed in bed
That a dark road is the only way out
With all that sh*t and all of my doubts
I don’t know where I’m going
I don’t know where I’m going
I don’t know where but I feel electric
Time is passing by and the clock is ticking in my head. It must be time to reset
Do we really know how to survive When we’re dying inside?
I got energy flowing in my heart
Maybe now’s time to hit restart
Yeah I can see what we’ve become
There’s a monster inside everyone
I don’t know where I’m going
I don’t know where I’m going
I don’t know where but I feel electric
Nobody sees our time is now
Can’t you see That times running out
Take the good and the bad in your life
Take the love don’t push it aside all the time
Do you know what it takes for me to survive?
All the things that I can no longer deny
There’s a sense of emptiness deep inside
And it’s not what I had planned in my mind
I don’t know where I’m going
I don’t know where I’m going
I don’t know where but I feel electric

Addictions

All the shadows within are hiding deep inside me
Ever since I was a kid they’ve come around to haunt me
I don’t want to feel low
Someday I’ll learn to let go
Of all the shadows within
So my world can keep turning
Does it feel, the same in your shoes?
To break the chains, what do you do?
Does it feel the same for you?
Can I slow down and turn things around?
These are the times we’re living in
With everything at our finger tips
These are the times we’re living in
And we’re all broken into pieces
These addictions make me insane
And temptation makes me go astray
Cause my soul is burning down again
These addictions make me run away
These addictions make me insane
And temptation makes me go astray
Cause my soul is burning down again
These addictions make me run away
Tell me, the meaning of life
It can’t be only wrong or right
I’m so hard on myself
Can’t take the pain somewhere else
Does it feel the same in your shoes?
So distracted what can I do?
Does it feel the same for you?
Its hard to slow down
To turn things around
These are the times we’re living in
With everything at our finger tips
These are the times we’re living in
And we’re all broken into pieces
These addictions make me insane
And temptation makes me go astray
Cause my soul is burning down again
These addictions make me run away
These addictions make me insane
And temptation makes me go astray
Cause my soul is burning down again
These addictions make me run away
When things are broken it’s time for a new day
Look up to the blue sky get it out of your mind
When things are broken it’s time for a new day
Look up to the blue sky get it out of your mind
No no no no addictions make me run away

Waiting For A Revolution
03:57
|
|||

Why are we holding on to something with no meaning in our life?
We hear so many lies
Why can I hear so many noises all around me in the night?
And time keeps ticking by
We are one
We all want the same thing
A love that can find you
A place you can turn to
We are one
We all want the same thing
We want it now
When it all falls apart and we're caught in the middle
Who's making the decisions? Never ever gonna give in, this generation's failing
When it all falls apart and we're caught in the middle
Maybe one day everything will change but now we're waiting for a revolution
Why, are we waiting night and day for something better to come by?
We’re fed so many lies
Why, do I look over my shoulder just to see what’s left behind?
Taking one step at a time
We are one
We all want the same thing
A love that can find you
A place you can turn to
We are one
We all want the same thing
We want it now
When it all falls apart
And we’re caught in the middle,
Who’s making the decisions?
Never ever ever gonna give in
This generation’s failing
When it all falls apart
And we’re caught in the middle
Maybe one day everything will change, but now we’re waiting for a revolution

Days Of Sin
04:25

She makes that money
A thousand dollars all in one night
On her daily journey.
To the places men do what they like.
What’s your latest fantasy?
She can show you, now’s the time to choose.
She’ll dance and make you happy.
You can pay cash, your credit card won’t do
No place to end - just somewhere to start
Where no feelings can be torn apart
Dance the way it makes him happy
Talk like original sinners do
Tell all the words you want to tell him
The choice is yours
To walk from days of sin
Now her time is money
A thousand dollars all in one night
She looks so pretty
For the men who want to fantasise
And there’s no limits, there’s no time to fail
She knows that one day love won’t be for sale

The Things You Do
03:41
|
|||
|
The world revolves around you every single time
It’s plain to see your instinct tells you that you’re right
But don’t you see that there is more to life than you?
And that you’re hurting someone with the things you do?
Sometimes it’s just about the things you do
Sometimes it’s just about the things you do
The years go by but nothings ever gonna change
You keep on firing bullets until you have your way
It’s so important only when its about you
Now can’t you see you’re hurting with the things you do?
Sometimes its just about the things you do
Sometimes its just about the things you do
I don’t want to hear about your ups and downs
You’re gonna end up being lonely with a a frown
So down come out and drop the pressure on me
We gotta make it work no matter what you see today
Sometimes its just about the things you do
Sometimes its just about the things you do

Wallflower

She stands alone, Staring at the wall
Won’t speak a word, says nothing at all
Across the way, the boys just stare
They don’t really know and they don’t really care
From small things, big things grow
Watching and waiting and keeping it slow
Holding a light and a lonely prayer
Maybe tomorrow yeah,
A lonely tear, when know one's here your heart starts beating
Maybe tomorrow or someday in June
even a wallflower, one day will bloom
Alone in his room and its a Saturday night
Listening to records till the morning light
Nowhere to go, nowhere to be
Waiting for no-one
A lonley tear, when no one's here your heart starts beating
Maybe tomorrow or someday in June
For even a wall flower one day will bloom
Take your time it'll be just fine, so hold on
When the sun is out then you'll know it's alright, so hold on

Losing My Mind
04:17
|

|
Sometimes life is never just black or white
I try to get by
This time I am broken deep inside
I try to feel alive
Don't worry when I'm losing my mind
It's alright these are the things that keep me up at night
Don't worry when I'm losing my mind
It's alright these are the things that keep me up at night
Sometimes there are just so many lies
I do what I can to get by
Maybe I can change one day
Maybe it's a crime
I try to feel alive
Don't worry when I'm losing my mind
It's alright these are the things that keep me up at night
Don't worry when I'm losing my mind
It's alright these are the things that keep me up at night
Shine your light on me now when I feel inside out
Shine your light on me now when I feel inside out
Don't worry when I'm losing my mind
It's alright I know these are the things that keep me up at night
Don't worry when I'm losing my mind
It's alright I know these are the things that keep me up at night
Shine your light on me now when I feel inside out
Shine your light on me now when I feel inside out

I can hear the rain outside my window
I can hear the cars speeding by
Just another day but it’s gonna be slow
Today Im gonna stay at home, my coffee warm and I can be alone
I can leave my shoes off without a worry
I can take my time n watch the world go by
I can think without no distractions
I’m gonna stay in bed, put my feet up and read a book instead
Another day, another night
I can be alone, me myself and I
Another day, another night
Gotta make the most of my precious time
But tomorrow is a different story
Gonna be another crazy day
I’ll be running round with nothing to see
Today I won’t look at the phone
I’ve unplugged myself just to be alone
Another day, another night
I can be alone, me myself and I
Another day, another night
Gotta make the most of my precious time

Miles Away From Home
04:12
|
|||

I was born in land far away and was brought up a different way
Packed a suitcase filled with hopes and dreams just me without my family
Had to say goodbye not knowing when I’d see everybody again
So my dreams could become reality if I got an opportunity
Not many dollars in my pocket
just a will to work hard and to give it a shot
Found a place to myself where the big city lights shine bright
I Don’t know anybody but I’ll try and fit in
If I call my family they’ll ask how it is
I just need a chance to find my own way tonight
Moving on miles away to build a life had to fly away
Moving on to another place. Am I going nowhere?
Moving on far away to build my dreams had to fly away
Moving on miles away but I won’t be broken
Now I know it’s hard cause nothing’s easy and loneliness is part of life
I’ve been thinking of this since I was seventeen so it’s gotta be worth a try
Got my first job in a factory and I know this is just a start
Sometimes I know where I’d rather be when I’m I missing my dad and mum
Not much money in my pocket
Just dreams in my heart I gotta start from the start
Now Ive made some friends and they seem to be good to me
And I try so hard to be like them
But sometimes I just gotta pretend
So I’m not completely alone on my journey
Moving on miles away to build a life had to fly away
Moving on to another place. Am I going nowhere?
Moving on far away to build my dreams had to fly away
Moving on miles away but I won’t be broken
Always knew that I would be the one to go away and try to be someone
Yeah I knew that I would be the one to fly away from home
Fly away miles away from home

Alright In The End
03:51
|
|||
|
There's always too much to worry about
So many things I know that we can do without
No appreciation for everything we've got
If we take a step back, we'll see that what we got is a lot
All that useless information
Going round and round inside my head
And it breaks my motivation
I just wanna keep the good instead
But I think our time is coming
Gotta change the way we're living life
Because everybody's hurting
And we all got scars that are deep inside
Everything's gonna be alright, It's gonna be alright in the end
Everything's gonna be alright, it's gonna be alright in the end
Wo oh oh oh
Wo oh oh oh In the end
There's always something not going right
My head hurts if I think I could be wasting my time
But something tells me to face my fears
I won't worry this time, no I won't shed any tears
All the messy situations
That I get myself in day by day
Gotta use my imagination
And look ahead don't turn the other way
Now I found something to cling to
And I know I'll no longer be upset
Won't forget all the things I've been through
There's no time to think about regrets
Everything's gonna be alright, It's gonna be alright in the end
Everything's gonna be alright, it's gonna be alright in the end
Wo oh oh oh
Wo oh oh oh In the end
Time just passes by
I don't know why
We take for granted things we've tried
And I won't cry cause
Or say good bye
Cause its alright in the end
Everything's gonna be alright, It's gonna be alright in the end
Everything's gonna be alright, it's gonna be alright in the end
Wo oh oh oh
Wo oh oh oh In the end

Opening Out
by Mateusz Prokowski

Listening to this song and your album gives me such goosebumps. There is such a melancholic longing in this music to places or times gone by. Your music has a sadness and darkness to it, yet so pure magical and soul embracing. I am big a fan of your work my friend! And this collab with Ladycampion is pure GOLD!!! But so is the rest of this album. Kudos and bravo!!
