This one popped up on my feed,great to hear it again.The EP gets regular play! I hope all is good with you nooms.

You're led by the nose
And I think you suppose
It's the road to the promised land
Through the highs and the lows
You know how it goes
It's too late when you understand

It's too late when you understand
They've been playing underhand

It's Too Late

A cover of the Nine inch nails song,one which always resonates with me. It's one I wish I had written.

Hurt

This is a ballad telling the story of a guy who makes a big discovery
Lyrics.

Just saw a girl I used to know
We were lovers a long time ago
She was walking with a younger guy 
He looked familiar and I wondered why 
Something about him the  look in his eyes
It took a while before I realised. 

For three years we were floating on air
Had no money but we didn't care
I didn't know it then but she had a plan
To raise a kid alone without a man
A love child she kept hidden away 
But I saw him on the street today

Looking at a younger version of me
Maybe twenty two or twenty three
If she'd told me that  I had a boy
He would have been my pride and joy
Never got a chance to see him grow
The missing father that he'd never know.

She looked at me then she turned away
Guess she couldn't think of what to say
Shame and guilt about what she'd done
She could have told me that I had a son
Feeling angry, feeling sad felt like saying 
Hey kid I'm your dad. 
But no words came from my mouth today  
And I stood there as they walked away.

They say that ignorance is bliss 
and what you don't have you can't miss.
I'll tell myself it wasn't her 
and he was never really there,
A son I never really had, 
guess I'll never be a dad..

Looking at me

When we were clearing my brother in law's house after he died in an accident,we came across a little written musing. It's the spoken part at the end of this short track. Perhaps not polished,yet poignant. Rest easy Alan.

Magic at work
There we go
Watch it unfold
It's all guesswork
Nothing to show
All uncontrolled

Drifting along
Aimlessly
Life and the flow
Is there a song
Just for me
Will I ever know

When life has lost it's theme
It's crazy impossible dream
And a heart is beyond tears
And worries and fears
Then the answers lie at best
In the scudding distant clouds
Or in memories of vibrant years
Long gone

Our secret garden

The More I Drink

Ch
Lost in space
Disappeared without a trace
Lost in time
Thought I was losing my mind
Lost and found
Underground or overground
Communication
Routed to another destination

V1
I'm speeding away from earth
Spinning in circles, slowly, slowly

Ch

V2
I'll never see another face
Cut the ignition – throws me, throws me
