about

Originally written in mid 2011, this song has also been adapted to play with my band the Snipes. This is my original solo recording.

lyrics

Soft and stained with burning lights
I can’t stand this paradise
I will find a way out of here

I for the moment have found my way, I may
Be still watching clocks tick but I’ll play, the game

Gonna leave nostalgic days of suppressed action
Kick up the dirt and form my own faction

Distraction is the phrase that they always say
Refraction might make you king for the day

I wouldn’t bet on you to take away
All that I’ve built up from this day, id say

You aint gotta a chance to be myself
You aint gotta chance to beat myself
You aint gotta chance, so back away

I haven’t felt like I do today, you might say
I am a new born ready to play your games

Na na na na na
Na na na na na
