BREATHING
JUST FOR DOING SOMETHING
AND NOT DO NOTHING
WASTING TIME

BEING BORN
INTO THIS BORING
WORLD OF NOTHING DOING
BUT WASTING TIME

LOVE SEEMED
SOMETHING TO BE TRIED OUT
BUT IT DIDN’T WORK OUT
SO I
WENT BY BYE

BREATHING
AND IF NOT FOR YAWNING
WHAT’S THE POINT OF LIVING
WASTING TIME

LIFE SEEMED
SOMETHING TO BE TRIED OUT
BUT IT DOESN’T WORK OUT
SO I
GO BY BYE

BREATHING
GENTLY SELF-ERASING
SLOWLY DISAPPEARING
WASTING TIME

LIFE SEEMED
SOMETHING TO BE TRIED OUT
BUT IT DOESN’T WORK OUT
SO I
GO BY BYE

BREATHING
WATCH THE SUNSET RISING
BACKWARDS IS THE FEELING
WASTING TIME

WASTING TIME (Lyrics)

I feel yr deep deep invisible (plus loin) 'visible touch.
C'est la question du doute,... de la méfiance.
Mother (plus loin) aether (plus loin) là haut aether
Et de l'impatience sans la moindre pitié
Ou bien cesser,corps,cesser,corps,cesser
Champ de ruine, divine..
Terminer,(plus loin)

Mother (plus loin) aether (plus loin) là haut aether
C'est la question du doute..du doute
Ou bien cesser,corps,cesser,corps,cesser
Champ de ruine,de la méfiance..
Mort,morphine..

(plus loin) ailleurs,un autre jour
La paix sans la peur
Sans la peur.

Plus Loin,farther Away..

The Mouse & The Starlight (feat. Mikey Davis)

This is the first recording of my original song “Easy Going” which was written in March 2024. In terms of the production it’s deliberately arranged to bring back memories of mid-90s Britpop tracks from bands such as Oasis, Cast, Suede, maybe even Manson and the excellent Longpigs.

If I’m honest this is a song about the regrets of getting older and how quickly time flies. I’m almost certainly over halfway through my expected lifespan. More and more I get a real sense of the idea that with some things, I can just never go back to them. I look back at my mid-20s and I can NOW see that this was a fantastic period of freedom and pleasure, and that at the time I just did not notice. I guess that’s all part of growing up.

The Britpop style of the track is entirely deliberate because that thrilling period of British music directly coincided with my mid-20s and hence the whole song is based around that time, both in subject matter and style. That period of my life took place in Leamington Spa, where I lived at the time.

The song was written and recorded at my current home in Penarth, near Cardiff in South Wales.

*LYRICS*
You had a look, a look you used to wear
I used to know just what it meant, I swear
But now I’m not so sure
I guess we’ll never know
Can’t reverse time, can’t go back to then
No-thing is gonna bring you back again

Life’s not as long as it seems
Hold on tight to your vanishing dreams
Because

Easy going easy going easy gone
Easy does it easy did it easy’s done
Easy easy oh it’s just way too easy
Way too easy
Getting gone

We thought we’d made it
We thought that we’d arrived
That white apartment
Towered above the night
We lived in a movie
But we never knew
Frank in the bar and Ella at home
Gin in the fridge and your folks on the phone

Life’s not as long as it seems
Hold on tight to your vanishing dreams
Because

Easy going easy going easy gone
Easy does it easy did it easy’s done
Easy easy oh it’s just way too easy
Way too easy
Getting gone

Putting off a million things
This can wait, and so can that
The steady click click click
Of a metronome
The steady tick tick tick
Of your days

Easy going easy going easy gone
Easy does it easy did it easy’s done
Easy easy oh it’s just way too easy
Way too easy
Getting gone

Easy Going

To the One Who Left (떠나간 너에게)

I call your name to the mountain wind,
But it echoes back from the void.
The whole world soaks in solitude,
This night brims with longing.

Time flows, and stars shine,
Yet, your laugh, your glance,
Now unreachable even in dreams,
Deeply missed, my heart aches.

Memories pile up like falling leaves,
A deep sigh tries to soothe the pain,
Unforgettable you,
Today again, I call out,
In the tears that flow.

Through the night, the melody of longing continues,
Even the whispering wind resembles your voice.
A single beam of light sketches your shadow,
Torturing my soul left alone in the darkness.

Even the starlight resembles you, illuminating me,
But your warmth will never return.
Now, you only look at me from my memories,
As I weep at the sight of your back, fading endlessly away.
