Vattakanal is a magical village situated in the cloud forest of the Palani Hills next to Kodaikanal in Tamil Nadu, Southern India. It is known for its unmatched scenic beauty, bizarre natural phenomena and magic mushrooms which grow in abundance in and around 'Vatta'. After a much needed pilgrimage to Vattakanal, This track is my tribute to the heavenly place, hoping that more people get inspired and blessed to visit Vattakanal after hearing this track.

I know your tired - but hey dude I am too –I'm  tired of trying to resurrect – the good in you
The good in me – has taken a back seat – and I just watch you flounder around – wondering when you'll come around 
And you walk – down this lonely road – trying to find a place you can stand still find a place you can call your home 
The real in us – We watch it dissipate – and as our life is fading away we find peace in our solitude 
But hey we’ll keep on moving with thoughts that are soothing In hopes it will get us through our day…
There’s something I been meaning to say!
Why’d the fuck you let her get away
Could’ve saved yourself from all this god damn pain
So much disease can’t figure out the strain – I'd like to hold you down and rub away the stain
2nd verse
I know your tired – But Hey dude I am too – I'm tired of trying to have your back – when you never pull through
The good in me – has taken a back seat –And I know your about to erupt – when did your soul become so corrupt
And you walk – down this lonely road – trying to find a place you could stand still find a place you can call your home – 
The good in us – we’re sick of all these games – but it’s something we’ve grown so used to there won’t be any breakthroughs 
hey we’ll keep on moving with thoughts that are soothing In hopes it will get us through our day…
There’s something I been meaning to say!
Why’d the fuck you let her walk away
Could’ve saved yourself from all this god damn pain
So much disease can’t figure out the strain – I'd like to hold you down and rub away that stain
I’m so fucking tired – but hey dude so are you – I'm tired of trying to find the words – when they all cut through - yeah!!!!

I am an Ex Merchant British Merchant seaman spent most of my life Travelling the world this what inspired me to start playing the Guitar and writing my own music at 59 so never to late for Being creative I don’t sing but just enjoy chilling playing my guitars￼ 
You’re only here once so always wanted to play the Guitar was written off by bad music teacher as a Child said I wouldn’t play a note how wrong he was because here I am . 
I was pointed in the right Direction by my Guitar Teacher MR William Lovelady and set me on my Guitar Journey ￼I am heavily influenced by early blues and Jazz but also love pink Floyd , B-Tribe , and Spanish flamingo music so I have a wide taste in music Even Classical Guitar going to sea has given me a taste for all genres of music￼￼￼￼
