Lyrics
A blank piece of paper rests on the table
I think I’ve no words anymore
I envy myself when I was snotty and rebel
‘cos all my persistence is gone
I need a resolution, a better place to go
where I have few books to read, my girl and my dogs
resilience is heading, holding my will, I’m alive
I was sick of seeking you
I was sick of seeking you
I felt forsaken and confused
‘cos I’ve got nothing, nothing to lose yet
There’s rust on the frame but not on the picture
I’m saving the best from that boy
that felt like a loser but with something to prove
with a gaze full of sorrow and joy
He dreamt a revolution, a safer place to go
just booze and punk rock, boycott and revolt
resilience was heading, holding his will, he was alive
He was sick of seeking you
he was sick of seeking you
He felt forsaken and confused
‘cos he’s got nothing, nothing to lose yet
“Life’s too short to waste”
is a cheap sentence
a good eulogy for everyone
but it’s easier to be said than done
She was leaving an addiction, carving a new path
through mountains of bad memories, making peace with past and
resilience was heading, holding her will, she was alive
She was sick of seeking you
She was sick of seeking you
She felt forsaken and confused
‘cos she’s got nothing, nothing to lose
Somebody is sinking
somebody has drowned
I’m fighting and rising
but I’m drenched to the bones
