Day 5

Hello and welcome back!  I can’t believe that’s been 5 days since the start of this tour, thank you so much for sticking with it.  Today’s track is called “It Always Tends to End this Way”, and is the most recent song that I wrote for this debut EP. 

Sometimes when practicing or improvising, a riff can appear out of nowhere and is just too good to ignore!  That was the case with the intro riff for this song, the rest just kind of fell into place around it.  For the lyrics I kept things quite light in rhetoric, talking about things like substance abuse, self destructive & narcissistic behaviour etc. You know all the things kids are into nowadays…

Anyway enough of my waffle, listen to the song, make love, enjoy your life.  I’ll be in touch tomorrow for the final track in the EP.

"Just sit back & watch it fall, it will take no time at all."

"It Always Tends To End This Way"

Lyrics

Verse 1

God will never let you know,

Just hold it back and let it go,

Pinned my shit against the wall,

Grab a beer and watch it fall.

Chorus

This is my complacency dependency,

And it always tends to end this way.

Verse 2

I’ve been here many times before, 

Wash it back and beg for more,

Right or wrong time will tell,

My perfectly constructed hell.

Chorus

This is my complacency dependancy,

And it always tends to end this way.

Repeat X4

Bridge

Just sit back and watch it fall,

It will take no time at all,

You can never take it back,

Just like a suicide attack.

Chorus

This is my complacency dependancy,

And it always tends to end this way.

Repeat X4
