Heading south on dusty roads
Headlights glow against the dark
I still hear your voice, I remember your words
Burning bright inside my heart

Not my landscape, not my home
I played the cards I was given
The beasts watch me from the shadows
As I avoid their suspicion

Sugar-coated suffering
(wonder what this one will bring?)
Food for the candle wick
(another song for us to sing)
Chords for pain everybody knows
(not my landscape, not my home)
Burn your heartbreak on the family coals
(don't let it show)

Heading south running just in case
Love has faded like an old photograph
Feed your heartbreak to the fireplace
Warm your grief in the candle glow

Not my landscape, not my home
I played the part I was given
The beasts watch me from the shadows
As I avoid their suspicion

Sugar-coated suffering
(wonder what this one will bring?)
Food for the candle wick
(another song for us to sing)
Chords for pain everybody knows
(not my landscape, not my home)
Burn your heartbreak on the family coals
(don't let it show)

Candle Glow

You told me.
Love was a simple thing.
Don't need, to worry about everything.
Won't leave.
I'm sure we'll figure things out.
We can work it out.

You told me.
Life was a simple thing.
Hold me back from the precipice.
Lonely, some days I'd do anything.
Just leave on the light.
To keep out the night.

You warned me.
Life is a simple thing 
I cared, too much for anything.
No sleep, no space for simple things.
Things will work out right.
Until they don't one time. 

You told me.
You wanted simple things. 
Mostly, effort above everything.
Ghostly, the thoughts at the back of my mind.
Though things seem fine.

You say.
Your loves a simple thing.
You are happy without a ring 
Don't have to be kinda anything. 
If you could just be mine. 
If you could just be mine. 

Car crash, the state of union.
Gas on, life's like an onion.
Electrons smashing into the other side.
But then divide....

Our song.
Started as a simple thing.
I go and complicate everything.
Key change, off on another whim.
It'll be alright.
It'll be alright.

LYRICS

I'd give your pretty head a little shake.
Cos maybe i'm not such a fool.
Ah now, you're out there hanging with the super freaks.
The ones who abhorred you at school. 

There's no reason to be this excited by.
Oh, it's only some shit up your nose.
You look in the mirror from your pallid eyes.
Good lookers never give you a rose. 

The cows in the fields,
Oh they get it for free,
They get it for free.
The cows in the fields,
Oh they get it for free,
Come get it with me. 

Overestimating your thinking time.
It's seconds not the years that you thought.
The days that you gave in waiting on the line.
Can't count all the shit that you bought. 

Perfecting a lazy impression of.
The dandiest man on the town.
Might fool all the others with your dirty clothes.
Someday everybody comes down. 

The cows in the fields,
Oh they get it for free,
They get it for free.
The birds and the bees,
Oh the cows and the trees,
They get it for free.
The cows in the fields,
Oh they get it for free,
Come get it with me. 

You think you'll have it down
your nose at us.
Now that it bleeds take a pass.
The wolf is laying right there in your grandma's bed.
My girl what big teeth that he has. 

I'd give your pretty head a little shake.
Cos maybe we're not such a fool.
Ah now, you're out there hanging with the super freaks.
The ones who abhorred you at school. 

The cows in the fields,
Oh they get if for free,
They get it for free.
The birds and the bees,
Oh the cows and the trees,
They get it for free.
The cows in the fields,
Oh they get it for free,
Come get it with me.

Hi, it's Henadzi. Currently based in Abu Dhabi, UAE. Just doing some DIY music for no particular reason. Mostly it's guitar-based instrumental stuff recorded entirely at home. Not intended to bind myself to some particular genre, so I'm free to play around. Feel free to DM me if you're looking for collaboration.

Have a good day.
