The Lyrics

Walkin Dead

I'm so sore in the morning, I crawl home every night,

burst me open a bottle of blanc just to help me sleep at night.

Is it right? Is it fair?


Slave to the man that pays you.

Slave to the chains you buy.

9 to 5 just to keep the wolves away from the kids and wife.

Is it right? Is it fair?

If we just accept if we just accept do we care?


(Brick by brick) I'll tear apart the prison that i have around my heart,

(Step by Step) We all will see the chains that bind to misery.

(Run rat run) away from danger, the sound of the pipes that bogus saviour.

(one by one) to lift your head and leave behind the walking dead.


Broke in a world that charging, broke just to give you drive.

Driving into the oncoming traffic is cheaper than staying alive.

Is it right? Is it fair?

Do we stop this race? Do we turn our face? Do we dare?


(Brick by brick) I'll tear apart the prison that i have around my heart,

(Step by Step) We all will see the chains that bind to misery.

(Run rat run) away from danger, the sound of the pipes that bogus saviour.

(one by one) to lift your head and leave behind the walking dead.


Drawn to the tune that deep debt makes.

Trapped by the bleak consumer age.

Good Times


Well it looks like i made it! when you thought I'd drown.

I saw you hate and deny me, did you bet... I'd fail, I'd fall?

And man there is no denying it's been hard at times but...

I never needed approval from a fraud, you're a waste of time.

If it's true that I have no ambition then why am I alive and kicking still? (Don't lose faith, No.)

If it's true and I amount to nothing, at least I got to prove you right, oh well..(you're more than this so...)

Stop, don't wait, your lifes not a mist..

...stakes are high. This turns one try and...

Lifes so much better when you give up chasing happiness, I know! I've tried!

It sounds kinda vague but everything will fall in place, don't stop! Good times!

How come you all wanna know me now? I'm flying high with the stars.

I think it's ever  so funny how, I guess karma leaves it scars.

If it's true that I have no ambition then why am I alive and kicking still? (Don't lose faith, No.)

If it's true and I amount to nothing, at least I got to prove you right, oh well..(you're more than this so...)

Stop, don't wait, your lifes not a mist..

...stakes are high. This turns one try and...

Lifes so much better when you give up chasing happiness, I know! I've tried.

It sounds kinda vague but everything will fall in place, don't stop! Good times!

SOLO

Stop, don't wait, your lifes not a mist..

...stakes are high. This turns one try and...

Lifes so much better when you give up chasing happiness, I know! I've tried!

It sounds kinda vague but everything will fall in place, don't stop! Good times!

Toad

Sad, i do hope you never feel that in life

but your hopes and dreams are fanciful and i'm like a knife

And when i feel that monday drag on my soul

You are so high i fear you’ll lose control


It's a tough looking ride when you're aiming for the top you better, go go don't wait for me.

And if you're running low on self stream and caught in a trap you better, go go, don't  wait for m e

This is my final declaration if you want it GO need it Go

Never stoop to nip the flow, get it? NO?, wanna? No? Get the fuck away you toad.   


And now i feel it love, your heart it is on fire,

As the world rejects and takes from you, everything that its wantrs too

And when i feel that monday drag on my soul

You are so high i fear you’ll lose control


It's a tough looking ride when you're aiming for the top you better, go go don't wait for me.

And if you're running low on self stream and caught in a trap you better, go go, don't  wait for me

This is my final declaration if you want it GO need it Go

Never stoop to nip the flow, get it? NO?, wanna? No? Get the fuck away you toad.


Say, i hope you find your way, in this life,

For the days will often get you down, remember we all need a clown

Pills

The song delves into the struggle many have and many will endure with mental health, the denial, confusion, feelings of self doubt and friends with good but at times misleading advice. It's a song of hope during those times and a nod at reclaiming control.

I never needed your sympathy,

Your inexperienced psychology

Just back away my friend and we’ll be fine

I keep it inside of me

And that's fine with,

When the sun burns down i'm a misery 


Cause I'm not down with this you fold and bend to fit, I can't let you destroy me

I finally found a cure to you, you're so obscure. I wash my hands of the fear

I don't need no pills, cause Im not ill, I've never been so sure about the way i feel

Cause i…Don’t want more


I hold my head up high, i'm not the same you see

When you said i have abilities to touch the hearts of anyone i meet

But i know you lied to me, endlessly 

Your such a bitching drain on my energy


Cause I'm not down with this you fold and bend to fit, I can't let you destroy me

I finally found the cure to you, you're so obscure. I wash my hands of the fear

I don't need no pills, cause Im not ill, I've never been so sure about the way i feel

Cause i… one step more?


Hey you, hurts bad when the devils ahead

That's right, I know i know

Sit down, and look at these beautiful bones

That's right, and you know where they go.

That's right Down in a dirty hole.

Love / Hate

The song puts the spotlight on a very uncomfortable and prevalent problem, domestic mental and physical abuse. The lyrics covers the devastation of abuse but also encourages a resolve and empowerment. We hope the song can give someone the confidence and strength to escape any abusive relationship, either mentally or physical and find freedom and happiness like many others have.

You took what you want from me, blood tears and agony you told me I was no one.

You, why are you hitting me? There is no love you see, and now we know what's coming.


I won't make mistakes like I have made all of those times before

And you can not stop me now, when I'm walking out that door

Cause I wanna forget you now!, I love to hate you now!, I'd hate to love you now!


I lost all my dignity, self worth was stole from me, you took my world and crushed it.

Now, you have no hold on me, exposed and shamed you see. And now we know what's coming


I won't make mistakes like I have made all of those times before

And you can not stop me now, when I'm walking out that door

Cause I wanna forget you now!, I love to hate you now!, I'd hate to love you now!


You are now outta my head, and it feels so good with what's been said to get this weight off my chest, yeah.

I’m so glad that you have gone, but remember this you were wrong, what matters to me is that I stayed strong.


I won't make mistakes like I have made all of those times before

And you can not stop me now, when I'm walking out that door

Cause I wanna forget you now!, I love to hate you now!, I'd hate to love you now!

Glasshouse

Nothing is quite as it seems here, touch the walls and they'll fall down

Breaking glass thats makes the sound of the million blows I took from you,

Glass is sharp, and words are too..


Here we go. I'm in the zone again, it's been a while but i'm taking No easy way out.

You see you hit me hit me really hard my entire persona got really jarred Im a

Shadow of my shadow former self.


Your words come easy like they’re something else, Im so fucking tired of not being myself.

And I hide and hide myself away, and the less opaque the house becomes the more people will say…


Nothing is quite as it seems here, touch the walls and they'll fall down

Breaking glass thats makes the sound of the million blows I took from you,

Glass is sharp, and words are too.. 


It’s not been easy, to pent it in is breeding sin you, you left me little breathe.

When i was playing by all her rules, the world looked on and thought the fool Ha Ha

cause I was wrapped up in missguided fear.


Your words come easy like they’re something else, Im so fucking tired of not being myself.

And I hide and hide myself away, and the less opaque the house becomes the more people will say…


Nothing is quite as it seems here, touch the walls and they'll fall down

Breaking glass thats makes the sound of the million blows I took from you,

Glass is sharp, and words are too.. 


Something has flipped here and something has flipped here and.

(Break down the walls of falseties there's no more room for you and me)


Nothing is quite as it seems here, touch the walls and they'll fall down

Breaking glass thats makes the sound of the million blows I took from you,

Glass is sharp, and words are too.

Nothing is quite as it seems here, touch the walls and they'll fall down

Breaking glass thats makes the sound of the million blows I took from you,

Glass is sharp, and words are too.

Help Me Over

This is a very introspective song, focusing on grief, loss and perhaps the breakdown of ones personal resilience. The song examines the nature of conflicting emotions, denial, regret, self sabotaging behaviour and seeking help while at the same time pushing those closet away.

I’m not lonely, just feel alone

I get frustrated when I’m on my own

It makes me weak but that keeps me strong

So when I think I’m right I know I’m always wrong

With all these things in my head keeps me going till I’m dead

I feel you when I need you

With all these things in my head keeps me going till I’m dead

I need you just to feel you


I’m going under, so help me over,

I’m going down, deep down

I’m going under, so help me over,

I’m going down, deep down


I’m only stable when I’ve had a drink

But if I lose control would it help me think?

In these four walls there are cracks in the ceiling

That tells many stories in the way I’m feeling

With all these things in my head keeps me going till I’m dead

I feel you when I need you

With all these things in my head keeps me going till I’m dead

I need you just to feel you


You’re never there when I need you there to take me there

But I’m always there when you need me there to take you there

You’re never there when I need you there to take me there

But I’m always there when you need me there to take you there



Breaking the Mould

Say, what you mean, don't let the toll of winter, take away your shine.

You’ll feel the warmth of the sun cause its burning in the sky!

So crack your shutters open wide, let the daylight seep inside, watch the frost begin to thaw, let the world in through your door.

When the familiar is more safe than what you do not know, you gotta ask yourself? Or don’t you want to know? 


Set sail and float away, if you, your heart begins to fray, no don't you dare give in, we’re all waking up from the mould

Break free of rusting chains, and be yourself again, know; there is so much more for you.

We're all waking up from the, all breaking out of our mould    . 


So Breathe, while you still can, don't be afraid to wonder, cause I know you can.

Believe, have faith, for god's sake just embrace, all of this is in your hands

So brush the cobwebs from your mind, open up and begin to shine.

Feel the subtle rush of blood, shimmer down your spine,

When the familiar is more safe than what you do not know, you gotta ask yourself, or don't you want to know?


Set sail and float away, if you, your heart begins to fray, no don't you dare give in, we’re all waking up from the mould

Break free of rusting chains, and be yourself again, know; there is so much more for you.

We're all waking up from the, all breaking out of our mould. 


Break


Set sail and float away, if you, your heart begins to fray, no don't you dare give in, we’re all waking up from the mould

Break free of rusting chains, and be yourself again, know; there is so much more for you.

We're all waking up from the, all breaking out of our mould.

Perfect Storm

We scaled the highest mountains searching for the gold (Damned gold!)

You were there, reaching higher, you said to save your soul.

Oh Lord I did not know, I wasn't then the same,

List my mistakes and crucify me all the same.


I’ve changed my mind; I'm sorry, I was searching less ordinary.

I belong to no one… I know.

So i just sit here waiting for you, nothing but the summer rain to keep me warm

Oh what a tragic perfect storm


I know i missed your boat, my timing is a mess (It’s terrible)

My life has changed so much, I can't say for the best.

Oh Lord I did not know, I was not then the same,

List my mistakes and crucify me all the same.  


And now it's over, and  it's over , I keep messing up the same.

Now we’re over and over again.

And we’re over and it's ov , I can’t keep playing the same games.

Now it’s over and I’m older again.


So i just sit here waiting for you, nothing but the summ er rain to keep me warm

Oh what a tragic perfect storm..


I’ve changed my mind; I'm sorry, I was searching for something less ordinary.

I belong to no one… I know.

So i just sit here waiting for you, nothing but the summer rain to keep me warm

Oh what a tragic perfect storm

Black Dog

When I get out of bed today, I’ll leave the Black Dog on my pillow.

And if it sleeps there all the day, will it leave me come tomorrow?


Cause when this crazy world, puts me on a spit again,

Whom I gonna turn to when nothing out my window seems real?... again.


Here she comes for food; my soul. Sipping my reality it drains me.

‘illogically’ it takes control, sipping from my very soul, it pains me.



Track Note:

Song plays with the symbolism of a black dog as a metaphor for depression.

Touches upon the symptoms and struggles of the disorder.
