Liner notes:
A tune like Vagabonds that started life work on a plane either side of a holiday. The keyboard bit came first and then the wahwah guitar and it built up from there. 

Written, performed and recorded by John Your Mate and mixed and mastered by Gary Brady at Total Thrive.

Words:
You tie me up in knots
You tell me up is down
But to cap it all
I know you’re right
 
Hate all that I took
Hate myself for you
This is not ideal
But we’re through
 
How did we get so broken?
 
I’d love to bear the cross
and teach you how to fly
But it’s not my way
Just the highway
 
How did we get so broken?
 
You told me your love was free
Like 1973
C’mon, c’mon, those times are gone

There’s water under the bridge
Just getting drunk just to heal
C’mon, get up, time’s rolling on
 
Chasing our hearts breaks
It's the simple truth
You can count on this
Win or lose

Human in Progress

Rocking and rolling with an independent spirit. Keep on keeping on.
