about

A post-bellyache song. Sometimes pain lets you see the world so clearly!

Dedicated to all the stuck souls around.
Yea, we are forced to become addicts in order to escape the painful awareness of being part of a sucky World. But no matter how terrified we are by this, we gotta try and be ourselves. Always.

lyrics

i used to be quite good at this
took a few pills and eased the pain
always caught the last train home
i was the one
who knew how to have fun
building spaceships out of chewing-gum
in the rain
to go to the moon and back
and then back to the moon

but now i’m stuck
i’ve run out of crap
the crack in the wall
is calling my name
and i’m ashamed
i keep washing my face
in the hope that my reflection
in the mirror could change

i used to be so good at this
took a few sips and faced the crowd
always caught the last train home,
laughed out loud
i knew how to make fun
of everything and everyone
to go to the stars and back
and then back to the start

but now i’m stuck
i’ve run out of crap
the crack in the wall
is calling my name
and i’m ashamed
i keep washing my face
in the hope that my reflection
in the mirror could change
show me how i never pretended to be
the real me.
