This track was written on the cusp of autumn, reflecting on how the changing in seasons can have such a visceral internal effect on us. I find that every year, the shift between seasons has a huge impact on my mood and outlook, and was in awe of how powerful nature is to move us so much. 'Evergreen' is an acknowledgement of how we have to embrace this, and that - no matter how hard we try - humans are no match for the forces of nature.

Evergreen

Another Lad Insane

Raised By Fools

Get ready
Now pack your bags
I feel unsteady now
'Cause there's something off

The less that you know
They say it's better
But I just don't know
How things can get better
If we don't know

Stopped knowing
Right from wrong
Truth from fiction
In the lines of this song
While you were waiting
For the high to come back
Was it pushing you forwards
Or was it wolves at your back?

The less that we know
They say it's better
But I just don't know
How things can get better
If we don't know
What's going on

What's going on here?
What's going on?

Were you raised by fools?
Do you bend to their rules?
And now you're confused
How can things get better?
What can we do?

What's going on?
What's going on here?
What's going on?

Brother (YKTDY)
Is a very nostalgic song for me. Most songs touch on the subject of love, the only difference here is that I wanted to write a song about how much I love my mates. I wanted to share some of the story’s and memories we lived through in our younger years. Growing up in Moston (Manchester). The good times. The bad times. It’s celebrating he family we choose, in our case our brothers. Life is never plain sailing but I like to think that is about who you are with not where you are. In this industry iv met a lot of privileged people but I honestly wouldn’t change our upbringing for the world. I’m proud of where I’m from & I love my mates so I wrote a song about it. Enjoy.

Brother (YKTDY)

Plato had it easy
Right place right time
To write down his lessons
And make them last through time
I'm lacking inspiration
I'm already past my prime
The grass was always greener
When you're on the other side
I don't know what to do
In this world

So I did my research
I looked it up online
I asked Jeeves
He shrugged and deeply sighed
He said, "you're not like Sinatra,
No, you don't have his eyes
And you don't like dancing
When your feet are getting tired."
I don't know what to do
In this world
I don't know what to do
In this world
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do

I don't want the dreaming
I don't want the hope
I gave my all already
And now I wish I'd never spoke
If "everyone's an artist"
Then who is left to gaze?
Will the seats lie empty
When we're standing on that stage?
I don't know what to do
In this world
world
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
