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

Carlonely - "Picture Of Calm (Dark Side Of Me)"

Where Did The Time Go?

A picture he had never seen
Eight years old and full of dreams
With all the other boys from his old class

Chorus

Where did the time go?
Chasing dreams and get rich schemes

He wonders where they all have gone
A different path, still going strong?
Did their lives turn out the way they planned?

Chorus

He thinks of what his life became
Regrets now form a heavy chain
Recalling all the chances let slip away

Chorus
Chorus

The past can't be undone
The years are lost, the battles won
With what remains he'll start anew
The road ahead comes into view

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?
