A terrific intro and then the song kicks in and does not disappoint! Very nice production and sound. Another great song. Looking forward to hearing more from that hard drive!

Great song guys. I love the guitar hook, orchestration, Gaz's vox are tops too.

Ho bisogno di te

MIDDLE AGE by NOVA J

[Vers 1]
Where’s the train, it’s rollin’
Oh, I missed my station 
There’s my mind, controllin’
Low on inspiration 

I’m not here to misbehave
I’ve got no more oats to sew
I’m damn near my middle age
You know how the story goes

[Pre Chorus]
And time goes fast
Time goes too fast

[Chorus]
And the world is changin’ (changin’)
Oh the world is changin’ fast
All these wars I’m waging (waging)
I don’t know if I will last

[Hook]
Until the end (until the end)
Until the end (until the end)
Until the end

[Vers 2]
Look around 
Looks like I missed the memo
Starin’ down
It’s a long hard fall below 

I’m too tired to keep on climbin’ 
But I’m too afraid to fall
I’ve worked hard for what is mine
And I’m so scared to lose it all 

[Pre Chorus]
And time goes fast
Time goes too fast

[Chorus]
And the world is changin’ (changin’)
Oh the world is changin’ fast
All these wars I’m waging (waging)
I don’t know if I will last

[Hook]
Until the end (until the end)
Until the end (until the end)
Until the end

[Bridge]
I know I somehow made it halfway
But there’s so much I don’t know
I know how scared I feel on some days
Is there any room to grow?
I don’t know (ooooh)
I just don’t know (ooooh)
I don’t know

[Outro]
I’m not here to misbehave
You know how the story goes
I’m damn near my middle age
But I’m praying I can grow
And time goes fast
Time goes too fast
And the world is changin’ (changin’)
Oh the world is changin’ fast
All these wars I’m waging (waging)
I don’t know if I will last
Until the end (until the end)
Until the end (until the end)
Until the end
Until the end (until the end)
Until the end (until the end)
Until the end
Until the end (until the end)
Until the end (until the end)
Until the end
Until the end (until the end)
Until the end (until the end)
Until the end

MIDDLE AGE

A song we recorded 3 years ago but decided was too good to be left on my hard drive.  There's a lot of others sitting in this bucket too!

Robin Hood of Romance   -   Conscience of Kings

🔥 Pack of Cigarettes (Modern Adaptation)

Inspired by Kino 

Verse 1
I stare through glass at a stranger’s sky,
City lights burn — but they don’t feel right.
Every street I’ve walked, every name I’ve tried,
Leaves a shadow fading in the neon night.

Pre-Chorus
I lost my faith, but I kept my flame,
A broken song on repeat in my brain.
No stars tonight, no one to blame —
Just the rhythm and my name.

Chorus
But I’ve got a pack of cigarettes,
And a flight that hasn’t left yet.
Silver wings cut through regret —
And I’m still breathing.
Yeah, I’ve got a pack of cigarettes,
And my heart’s not broken yet.
Every puff is a silhouette —
Of me still dreaming.

Verse 2
I see my face in a midnight screen,
Blue reflection, static dream.
Love was here — then it left unseen,
Only echoes know what I mean.

Pre-Chorus
The city sleeps, but my soul’s awake,
Every move I make feels fake.
Still I dance — for the fire’s sake,
‘Cause silence hurts like heartbreak.

Chorus (Repeat)
But I’ve got a pack of cigarettes,
And a flight that hasn’t left yet.
Silver wings cut through regret —
And I’m still breathing.
Yeah, I’ve got a pack of cigarettes,
And my heart’s not broken yet.
Every puff is a silhouette —
Of me still dreaming.

Bridge (Drop)
Smoke turns to rhythm,
Ashes to stars —
We burn, we fade,
But we know who we are.
Turn the pain into sound,
Let the beat hit the scars,
In the dark,
We’re alive where the lost ones are.


I’ve got a pack of cigarettes —
And a flight that hasn’t left yet...
Yeah, I’m still breathing,
Still dreaming,
Still burning...

Lyrics song by Sas 

[Verse]
Sunrise hurts
The thought , 
If I couldn’t 
feel you near
It leaves me 
wondering 
how,
Do I face my fear

[Prechorus]
Mum, 
You are my ,
everything ( everything) 

[Chorus]
Mum, 
You are my reason
Mum, 
You are my reason 
My life has more meaning 
I call you every morning 
To say good morning,
Mum.
I call you every night 
To say goodnight 
To just hear your voice and say I love you ,
Mum 
How do I live without ( you ) .

[Verse 2]
I see you ,
Sitting over there,
In your chair.
So lucky , 
I still have you here. 
Your Smile, 
Your laughter, 
Catching you looking at 
Your iPhone 

[Prechorus]
My mum 
You are my ,
everything (everything)

Chorus]
Mum, 
You are my reason
Mum, 
You are my reason 
My life has more meaning 
I call you every morning 
To say good morning,
I call you every night 
To say goodnight 
To just hear your voice and say,
I love you .

[Outtro]
How do I live ,
without ( you ) .
How Do I Live Without 
When I see you every single day. 
So tell me, mum, 
How do i go on living, 
Without you in my, my, my,
Life, mum. 
(How?)

How Do I Live Without You?
