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

Set Him Free

V1
There's a man in the corner
And he doesn't know what to believe
All his dreams have been stolen
And he wears his heart on his sleeve
So he stares out the window
At a world that's moving too fast
As he flicks through the pages
Of all the times in his past

V2
He can hear all those voices
Fill the air as stories unfold
As he sits there in silence
Feeling weary and growing old
Every face that he sees there 
Seems to know who they want to be 
But he's stuck in a moment
Caught between now and memory

Chorus 
Set him free Babe,
Set him free
Set him free Babe
Set him free

V3
There's a man in the corner
And he's lost in his deepest thoughts
All the plans that he made now
Are just battles that he never fought
As the world keeps on turning 
And the crowds they get up to leave
He's just the man in corner
And he doesn't know what to believe

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?
