Lyrics...

If only for a second do you stop and think of me,
Sitting in the shadow of a life that's set you free?
Wishing you remembered how good you had it then,
I only wish you well on your journey to the end.

And if by some small miracle you should pass this way,
I'd take you warmly by the hand but I wouldn't make you stay.
See memories have a thousand tricks they always like to use,
One day you think it's sunshine the next it's just bad news.

I'll stand and I'll be waving from the top step by my door,
As your car heads down the road and you're on your way once more.
Towards a lost horizon with wings upon your heels,
Tell me when you get there how good it really feels. 

These whispered words of sentiment come only when I drink,
If I was stone cold sober I'd take the time to think.
And wonder what the hell you ever saw in me,
Did you settle for second best or did you get lazy?

I guess in time you realised that I was just no good,
The secrets that I hid behind the cabin in the woods.
Were too far gone and so messed up they put me in the frame,
And the only things they've left me with are sorrow and my name.

If I could still be brave enough if I could be adored,
Would I be a slave to love or simply be ignored?
The weight of expectation is the thing that's killing me,
In time you came to cage the beast and threw away the key.

Systematic waves of panic are coursing through my veins,
I'd better light the signal fire before everybody blames.
The single reason I exist as a warning to you all,
I thought I flew among the stars but everybody falls.

I made mistakes that much is true and I paid the price,
I tried to hide the lies I cried and tried to be real nice.
Depression all consuming tore at my very soul,
But now I turn to face the truth before I get too old.

If only for a second do you stop and think of me,
Sitting in the shadows of a life that's set you free?
Wishing you remembered how good you had it then,
I only wish you well on your journey to the end.

Wrong Side Of Time ( Feat SK )

2024 remix by Jack Holston

LYRIC
There’s no longer doubt
Time is running out
And it looks it’s in a hurry
Where it’s got to go
I don’t need to know
I’m not even going to worry
Let some future me
Stick around to see
Exactly what was all the fuss
With the mess that is us
yessiree
I’ll just leave it be
For some future me

Don’t ask me to think
I’ve got me a drink
And a hammock hung in the shade
I am now clocked out
My whole day’s blocked out
And I face my present unafraid
Tell some future me
How things ought to be
If I’m still around to hear
I’ll lend you all an ear
Honey bee
No charge, it’s all free
Thank some future me

At one time I’d gladly join you
For the common good
Now I’d only disappoint you
But ask a future me, maybe he would
If he could

Lucky future me
Just might live to see
An end at last to all the fuss
With the mess that is us
Glory be
We have to wait and see
I’m sure he’ll agree
That lucky future me

Future Me

[Verse]
I learned to smile,
The way they do,
But their laughter fades,
And I’m left confused.
Words are easy,
But meanings hide,
In the space between,
Where I reside.

[Chorus]
I see the world, just like they do,
But I’ll never look in their eyes.
I blend right in, in the light of day,
But inside, I'm lost in their lies.

[Verse]
Their faces shift,
But I can’t see,
The lines they draw,
Weren’t meant for me.
I read the books,
I know the rules,
But in their world,
I’m just a fool.

[Chorus]
I see the world, just like they do,
But I’ll never look in their eyes.
I blend right in, in the light of day,
But inside, I'm lost in their lies.

[Bridge]
Behind the mask,
I wear so well,
Is a heart that aches,
A silent yell.

[Chorus]
I see the world, just like they do,
But I’ll never look in their eyes.
I blend right in, in the light of day,
But inside, I'm lost in their lies.
I'm lost in their lies
