lyrics

I never understood my desire to chase a sunrise  Dm c
After last night I’m staying behind closed blinds
I felt rejection, so I tried to drink it from my mind
And then I slept until the morning died

( I was ) woken by a chorus of lawnmowers  Bflat C
The noise of the machines in my head
(and I) register that I'm still in bed
(but I) still have a mortgage to pay.

Found a title for just about managing
I worked so hard, I think I gave it everything
I guess I didn’t meet the needs of the system
So the system (had to) let go of me.

Chorus

I hold on to my wife for comfort   F Bflat
I hold on to my child to bring me back
I thank someone for the roof that's above me
I feel for those still trapped in the rain
I lock the door and close the blinds
I hold my life closer to me
But fear starts to creep over me
Fear starts to creep over me

How am i going to pay for this
How am i going to pay.

When I record I get lost in an emotion, it spills onto the disc, sometimes it messy, sometimes its a rather wonderful painting I can keep forever. ... more
