about

We may be cynical, washed-up old wannabes, but we love you here and now.

lyrics

In the garden, there you stand,
As still as any stone
With a trowel in your hand
And a heart that’s all alone
You’ve been digging up the weeds
But still they grow back in
As in your heart there grows the need
To fill the void within

Poor soul, anyone can see you’re hurting
Gazing to the stars
Hold on, only thing we know for certain
is here we are

First comes Adam, then comes Jack
They’re knocking on your door
With an information pack
And the promise of much more
Well presented, so polite
And still behind their eyes
They will lead you to the light
And guard you from the lies

Poor soul, anyone can see you’re hurting
Gazing to the stars
Hold on, only thing we know for certain
is here we are

And your sadness is a landing light
for those who claim the keys
They will salvage you with good and right
and bring you to your knees

Anyone can spin a yarn
of things we can’t conceive
Some do good and some do harm
and all are make-believe
On your own or with a guide
you’ll find your way somehow
Well here’s a song to hold inside -
we love you, here and now

Poor soul, anyone can see you’re hurting
Gazing to the stars
Hold on, only thing we know for certain
is here we are
