This song is part of a competition to make a album in a month. 
I asked for subjects in a chatroom forum to write songs about for this project, somebody suggested that 86.2% of statistics are made up would make a subject, so I fired up the neutrons and put pen to paper. I was happy with the lyrics I came up with and picked up the guitar and started playing around with some chords and then I built the track around that. Musically I took inspiration from Iggy pop, the stokes and viagra boys

DON'T WANNA BRING YOU DOWN 

DESOLVE AND RESOLVE 
SO IT BEGINS
WINTER
A WALK IN THE BLEAK BRITISH COUNTRYSIDE
CLIMB UP A HILL
TO SEE WHATS ON THE OTHERSIDE
ITS MISTY TODAY
I CAN SEE FAIRY LIGHTS IN THE TOWNS 
SO FAR AWAY
MAKE OUR WAY DOWN 
THROUGH THE WOODS AND THE TREES
WE FOUND A STREAM
FOLLOWED IT INTO THE RIVER 
INTO THE LAKE
COVERS THIS GREEN AND PLEASANT LAND LIKE VEINS
ITS GOOD TO GET AWAY FROM IT ALL
A WALK IN THE COUNTRY
THE GRASS IS ALWAYS GREENER UNDER MY FOOT
A WALK IN THE COUNTRY COULD DO YOU THE WORLD OF GOOD

WALK

Bitter Phases

Lets rent a movie 
top shelf
I want a poster to hang on my bedroom wall
I wanna see aliens, I wanna see ghosts
We don't need to go to the pictures 
when we can take a video home  
Video drome 

A lick of paint is all it takes 
To brighten up this place 
I see your face in every could 
When I stare into space 
Mountains and rainbows
Talking to the angels 
Kiss the sky feel so high 

One more stick in the river 
one more branch from a tree
Sometimes it can take a lifetime to find out where your meant to be
One more stick in the river 
one more branch from a tree
I'm meant to be right here with you 
like you meant to be with me 

We raised our kids right by the light 
We gave them all the love we had 
Learned a lot of lessons from our mum and dad
We didn't turn out that bad 

One more stick in the river 
one more branch from a tree
I don't know where I'd be without my family 
Im gonna watch over you like my mother watched over me
One more stick in the river 
one more branch from a tree
One more stick in the river 
one more branch from a tree

Video kids trading garbage pal stickers 
spending their change at the pepe's arcade
Mum bought me a Sunday and we walked home in the rain
It was a lovely day 
We didn't know then but it would be ok

Video Shop/One more branch from the tree

We got this Western disease 
On top of all these anxieties
A ham burger with cheese 
I'm tired all the time but I can't sleep
I tried counting sheep 
But all I count is calories
I need something to eat 
Sugar free, low caffeine 

We got the Western disease
We can't control how much we eat 
Is it in my genes 
How did we get so obese
I need something to eat 

Give me Lipton injections 
Rock hard erections 
Fresh fruit and veg and a comfortable bed

And when I hear the birds sing 
I want to change like spring
But I'm stuck here and I can't change a thing 
Sink or swim
Shrink or grow 
Should I stay or should I go 
I don't know 

There's a world outside your window 
On daddies credit card
But if you got no money you better get him hard 
I got my slutty body I can sell for sex 
All the men they love yeah they send me texts

Do think there is a better life 
Cheating on your pretty wife
Sucking men off in the woods 
Never felt so fucking good 

And when I hear the birds sing 
I wanna change like the spring 
But I'm stuck here and I can't change a thing, no 

change those clothes, gender roles 
Pose like hoes and take photos 
And when I hear the birds sing 
I wanna change like the spring
I couldn't change the world, no I couldn't change a thing 
I couldn't change a thing
