about

This track was recorded in Berlin in January 2018. During this time I had just decided to leave every other musical project I'd been involved with to go it alone in a new city. It was averaging about -5 everyday and and - 15 at night, I'd never really felt cold like that before. I felt totally excited, alone, afraid and hopeful all at the same time. I knew that that this new life would have a lot of unexpected moments, good and bad.

But that is what I love most about life, just jumping in the deep end and seeing what happens.

lyrics

That's how it starts
You sit out in the water
Waiding for hours
Waiting for waves

Most of the time
That answer isn’t coming
Some of the times
Your wrapped up ain't it swell

But its alright
Its alright
But its alright
Cause I’m just taking my time

How does this begin
Feel I’ve been out here for ages
Waiting for change
Anything

Life pick me up
And i will go straight out to bravery
I want safeties not certain
In something not new

But I’m alright
I’m alright
I’m alright
Cause I’m just taking my time

Until I’m looking back into a heart attack
Im in too deep no coming back
I'll just beat my chest to the coming storm and ride it on home
Yea

How does this end
Bound to bound for ever
Bound to be swimming round in circles
Bitter end

I do not believe
Were all wasted here on nothing
Not guna just singing another song
And just wait for change

But I’m alright I’m alright
I’m alright I’m alright
Yes I’m alright
Though at times i must fight
But something just seems right
When I’m taking my time
