I'm tired of all the fuckfaces getting in the way
It's so damn hard to think og something new to say
I've got bills to pay, meds to take
fears to conquer & chains to break
Suckers to hustle, trust to break
It's the choices we all make

Motives aren't always so cut and dry
The waters get cloudy as the theories fly
drinks to pour, fish to fry
Take a moment before you try
pull back gently, keep a steady eye
Targets don't cry
They just die

Don't take this personally
Or Please do
without a doubt
If your feelings are hurt
Intentionally accidental is what I'm about

It seems it's so easy to struggle
So hard to achieve

Hi Hook,
I love the lyrics!
Your style of writing is very natural and gets to the point.
Love the instrumentation, especially the guitar track and the mandolin.
Your vocals fits in perfectly.
Thanks for this gem.

Beautiful melody very well played and produced. The lyrics gave me a bit of a lurch, but I think that was the point. Interesting juxtaposition of a light melody with dark lyrics. There's some excellent poetry here.

"Bills to pay, meds to take." Another day in the life.

Liking that kind of stutter to the guitars at the beginning  ..."tired of the fuckfaces"aren't we all... great lyric

[Mike_S]

Yes some mighty fine lyrics in there and some killer individual lines. Loved the "Motives aren't always so cut and dry, The waters get cloudy as the theories fly". Like Lurker said that light pretty melody along with the darker lyrics is a killer combination. Great stuff.

Dark and interesting, and great melody.  Cool Elvis Costello vibe.

[Ron D Bowes]

Cool composition and an interesting selection of instruments that come over well in the song. Good job Hook

[Farrell Jackson]

The beautiful music, happy melody and the dark lyrics shouldn't work as well as they do here. But they do. Nice writing Hook!
