I am getting old
There's a great expectation on me to be aging
But I barely have a past
Are you happy in your world?
Have you found your career? Your favourite beer?
Are you living fast?
I'm bored of drinking water
But I'm bored of getting drunk
I'm bored of being broke
But I'm bored of splashing my cash on junk
Bored of fresh air
But I'm bored of analysing the TV
I'm bored of being like this
Yeah I'm bored of being me
Ah shit
I'm getting nostalgic
I've just got to accept that the Cow and the warehouse and VHS are all dead
But were things truly better when I was young?
Just that if there's a brighter future
Then I sure as hell can't see one
I'm tired of mindless clickbait
But I'm tired of endless text
I'm tired of mainstream racism
And I'm tired of this alpha male attitude to sex
Tired of EDM
But I'm tired of indie too
I'm tired of the meatspace
Where do I go now? What do I do??
I'm not done yet
Just give me a redemption song in F major
I'm not done yet!
You can dot all my t's, cross all my i's
Expose me on any and all alibis
Just don't let me get bored of this.

Bottled It

Close encounters of the closed mind
A simple definition of life
Goes down the Greyhound every night
Adamant in a world of forks and knives
"The world's gone mad!" he says with aggravation
"Something's gone wrong with God's creation!"
I almost pity his desperation
But everything's still lost in translation
And I don't know where this is going
But this bottle's overflowing
Naturally, I avoid confrontation
Always been one for conversation
But he's a toy for my frustration
I'm half tempted to walk over and give him
A few choice words of wisdom, but
These types of words, they always lead to bruises
So I sit in silence, let the melody slip away
Close encounters of the closed mind
A simple definition of life
I almost pity his desperation
But everything's still lost in translation

I'm weathering my lip away
I'm electric, I am battery powered
Call me a scatterbrain and you'd probably be right
Mindless mastermind, I am
But who has a mind here?
Wanna wake in Camden town
Or Mars, just not here
Too much information, nothing's kicking in
I'm building up a bonfire and a sea for you to swim
I'm hoisting up my borders, bury my head in the sand
Cause there's too much information
Great Western men on the TV
Encouraging me
To wear a mask upon my face
To save my grace
Cause I must be in the prime of my life; entering my 20s, wandering 'round my hometown a little bit wasted, surrounded by the Sabbath day. And all the while the Barney Gumbles look at me as if to say "he's inherited this disease", alright.
Missed my bus and tram, guess I'll just walk the blues away. It's a common coping mechanism of mine, guess it's here to stay. And everyone is dead behind the eyes, it won't be too long till they betray, I'm thinking to myself upon the Savoy hill.
I'm a work in progress just like everybody else
Failing to find my answers in the trigger of my gun
Remind me not to harm myself or turn the gun on someone else
When there's too much information

Keep Talking

The shouting downstairs never stops
The endless cyclone just keeps revolving on and on without end
I wish it could
In the aftermath of a concussion
Just give me a good discussion
In this amplified world of ours
Keep talking and soon you will be heard
In the wake of violence, don't embrace the silence
Just keep talking
When did we decide that the future's overrated?
Walls are built between two extreme mindsets of opinion
What is it that you're scared of?
Is it a decent conversation or maybe your mind changing?
If we keep talking and listening
What we do between then's up to you
Begin again, begin begin again
