Very nicely written, recorded, and performed.

A Quiet Life 

 

You find a place to settle down
Away from everything you've known
So many secrets to protect 
So many people to forget

 

Wasting away in your silent disgrace
Keep your head down
Keep your head down
Each lonely day etching lines on your face
No one must know
No one must know


A quiet life 

 

You find a place but it's not home
And yet you stay here on your own
With all your secrets stashed away
With memories of better days

 

Pining away for the life you have lost
Your bridges are burned
Bridges are burned
Each passing day has you counting the cost
What have you learned ?
What have you learned?


A quiet life

 

And was it you or just one big mistake?
Crossing the lines that they drew?
What could you change if you could only go back?
Back to the days when you lived such a quiet life


You found a place to hide away
With memories of better days
So many secrets to protect
So many people to forget

I Never Saw It Coming

A Quiet Life

Not True

For An Ounce Of Gold

For an ounce of gold
You walked away from those who loved you
And you broke the bonds
With those who always kept you safe

Chorus

For an ounce of gold
You simply walked away
For an ounce of gold
From all the plans we made
For an ounce of gold
Your choices have been made
For an ounce of gold
I hope you're happy this way

For an ounce of gold
You turned your back on those who loved you
And you closed the door
And walked away from everything we'd built 

Chorus

Who is Kevin ISM?
No one knows very much about Kevin ISM, other than he is based in Ireland and has been recording and performing for a number of years to a selective and eclectic audience.
There are rumours, of course .... his association with Dublin based bands such as U2, the Frames, Blue Pyramid and Terra Firma. Brief appearances in Oscar winning movies. Lucrative contracts to keep quiet.
Maybe you already know him?
