lyrics

Your eyes look up to heaven
After you've fallen to the ground
I can't give you what you're after
It's time you looked for yourself
Between these two gates we wander
Thinking we rule our own
I'm surrounded by my closest
But I've never felt more alone

So I wait for you to come back
And I pray from my heart for something
But there's no release
And there's no reprieve
Till daylight sees us drown in seasons

So I count my heart deceived
And I'm trying hard to see
My fading guiding light
And the stars have all long since gone
Living in washed-out monochrome
Take the hit, watch the fall
Now I'm alone

So sick and broken
Nothing's as good as it seems
Breathing, choking
All I have is me
Some may say that it's too late
To keep on tempting Lady Fate
But with nowhere else to turn
And with nothing left to burn
Nobody could call me wrong

Your eyes look up to heaven
After you've fallen to the ground
I can't give you what you're after
It's time you looked for yourself
Between these two gates we wander
Thinking we rule our own
I'm surrounded by my closest
But I've never felt more alone

Just a grumpy guy with an old acoustic guitar, singing grumpy songs. After a lot of work and whisky, my first EP 'Here or There' is finally finished, and here it is for your listening pleasure!
