    LYRICS:

    Turning the ripe old age of 29

    Saturn returned to get my life aligned

    I’ve done a lot but somehow I feel left behind

    Coz all I hear is pressuring 


    Are you gonna have babies?

    Hurry up and find the one!

    Yeah you better get saving?

    Time to grow up and move on!

    Coz soon you’ll be 30-something

    The clock is loud, its thumping

    It’s driving me crazy

    It’s causing me to fall into a


    Quarter Life Crisis

    Gonna spend my time 

    Learning why am I like this? 

    Quit my job and I’ll 

    Travel the globe

    I will eat pray love til it goes  

    Quarter life crises

    Gonna lose myself 

    Just so I can find me and I’ll 

    Write it down and share as a quote

    Yeah I will eat pray love til it goes


    I know I’m young still but it gets me down

    Anxiety now hangs over my crown

    Compare myself to everyone around

    Coz all I feel is pressurin


    What have you accomplished? 

    Have you just been wasting time?

    Didn’t make that short list

    Under 30, no headlines

    Closing on so outdated

    I don’t feel regulated 

    I gotta do something

    Guess Ill just surrender to a..


    Quarter Life Crisis

    LYRICS:

    I turned up lost angeles

    I came here broken on my knees

    Come at me, try do your worst to me

    I’m driving sunset after dark

    A ghost town of ‘never made their mark’

    I feel them, they’re apart of me

    And I’m all gassed up

    with what it could be

    When you got nothing to lose

    you’re nothing but free

    I got a heart that’s broke

    that’s ready just to receive

    I know you’ll catch me

    California

    I’m ready for her

    Yeah I’m handing you over the keys

    I feel you’re got me

    California

    With you I’ll go far

    Yeah I’m handing you over the keys

    I surrender, Los Angeles

    I found myself lost in the hills

    Whilst looking for a cheaper thrill

    And asking god please send me a sign

    She told me turn the car around

    Stop moving so I can be found

    Is it my turn soon am I next in the line?

    Coz I got a one way ticket to

    “fuck it let’s see”

    Imma hold out hope

    I am looking for greener

    sides of the street

    I know they’re out there for me

    I know you’ll catch me

    California

    I’m ready for her

    Yeah I’m handing you over the keys

    I feel you’re got me

    California

    With you I’ll go far

    Yeah I’m handing you over the keys

    I surrender, Los Angeles

    I got the water on my side

    And the mountains watching me

    way up high

    California, california

    and I’m all gassed up

    with what it could be

    when you got nothing to lose

    you’re nothing but free

    gotta hold out hope there’s something out there for me

    And I know you’ll catch me

    California

    I’m ready for her

    Yeah I’m handing you over the keys

    I feel you’re got me

    California

    With you I’ll go far

    Yeah I’m handing you over the keys

    I surrender, Los Angeles

    LYRICS:

    I hear it everywhere 

    Heavy whispers in the air

    Tried to shut it out

    But I can’t drown it out

    Your key turns in the door 

    Guilty footsteps on the floor

    Are you ready? 

    I hope you’re ready!

    Now don’t you lie to me 

    Yeah It’s the least you can do

    Now don’t you lie to me

    Like I would believe you 

    Don’t you lie to me

    now Don’t you lie to me

    Don’t you lie to me

    You got something to tell me 

    Didn’t mean to hurt me, Shame 

    Don’t look me in the eye and say

    She didn’t mean a thing 

    After running round 

    You think you’re coming home? 

    Well shame! 

    This little indiscretions gone and

    cost you everything 

    And it’s a crying shame 

    If we turned the table ‘round

    And it was me who let you down

    Could you forget it? 

    I didn’t think so 

    I told you from the start

    That I wouldn’t play the part 

    Did you forget it? 

    Don’t say I didn’t warn you 

    don’t come crying to me 

    Yeah it’s the least you can do

    So don’t come crying to me

    My heart won’t break for you 

    So don’t come cryin to me

    now don’t come cryin to me

    So don’t come cryin to me

    You got something to tell me 

    Didn’t mean to hurt me, Shame 

    Don’t look me in the eye and say

    She didn’t mean a thing 

    After running round 

    You think you’re coming home? 

    Well shame! 

    This little indiscretions gone and

    cost you everything 

    And it’s a crying shame 

    There’s really nothing left to say

    There’s really nothing left to say

    So turn and walk away

    There’s really nothing left to say

    The nerve to tell me

    Didn’t mean to hurt me, shame!

    To look me in the eye and say

    She didn’t mean a thing 

    After running round 

    You’re never coming home!

    Well shame! 

    This little indiscretions gone and

    cost you everything 

    Well what a crying shame

    LYRICS:

    Keep looking at my horoscope 

    Searching for a sign

    Hoping it will say just go

    The stars are on your side

    It would be easier 

    If it was black and white

    But everything is fine

    So I keep hoping that the feeling goes

    If I just give it time

    What if I’m the kind of human

    Who holds the ground beneath their feet and

    What if I don’t need a reason

    To give up settling

    What if I’m terrified

    but this unknown is what I’m needing

    What if I wanna try 

    To be that kind of human

    I see that I have sacrificed

    Made myself so small 

    And I don’t wanna have to fight

    Not to be wasted potential

    And it would be easier

    If I just kept quiet

    Numb and compliant

    But something tells me I’ll be happier 

    Stepping out of line 

    What if I’m the kind of human

    Who holds the ground beneath their feet and

    What if I don’t need a reason

    To give up settling 

    What if I’m terrified

    But this unknown is what I’m needing

    What if I wanna try 

    To be that kind of human

    To be that kind of human 

    To be that kind of human

    I trust my intuition

    Bring it into fruition 

    Watch me I’m on a mission

    Show me what I’ve been missing

    Becoming my own saviour

    I’m giving my own favours

    What If I wanna try

    What if I’m the kind of human

    Who holds the ground beneath their feet and

    What if I don’t need a reason

    To give up settling 

    What if I’m terrified

    But this unknown is what I’m needing

    What if I wanna try 

    To be that kind of human

    LYRICS:

    Tiny specks of light

    Out the corner of my eyes

    They’re guiding me to

    Guiding me through

    Giving me my sight

    Things I couldn’t see

    They’re holding me through

    Holding me, calling me

    So I’m following

    Taking my sins with me

    I’m diving in

    Surrendering  

    To what it needs to teach me


    For the first time I am seeing my future

    Somehow I had lost it when I was with ya

    It’s clear to me I’ve got to focus on what’s in my heart

    And keeping it open

    Keeping it hoping

    Keeping going strong


    The medicine it flows

    To every part unknown

    It’s shining a light

    So I can make it right

    Out there is where I lose

    Sight of what I need

    I have to look inside

    And open up my mind and just 

    Keep following, letting it go

    Surrender

    Calling it in 

    Letting it flow

    It’s helping me remember


    For the first time I am seeing my future

    Somehow I had lost it when I was with ya

    It’s clear to me I’ve got to focus on what’s in my heart

    And keeping it open

    Keeping it hoping

    Keeping going strong


    Opening I am 

    Surrendering I am

    Letting in in

    Whatever it needs to teach me

    Letting go 

    handing over control 

    I am moving in free flow


    Opening I am 

    Surrendering I am

    Letting in in

    Whatever it needs to teach me

    Letting go 

    handing over control 

    I am moving in free flow


    So for the first time I am seeing my future

    Somehow I had lost it when I was with ya

    It’s clear to me I’ve got to focus on what’s in my heart

    And keeping it open

    Keeping it hoping

    Keeping going strong

    LYRICS:

    Don’t scream I can hear you

    Don’t need another read through

    You have a tendency to step over the line

    It’s come to blows cutting close too many times

    Don’t reach for the last time

    That we compromise 

    I don’t understand why I keep falling your way

    Should of shut this down from the very first day

    I’ve been losing sleep again

    I feel somethings out of place

    You’re there tryna pass the blame

    I’ve been losing sleep again

    Fighting wanna shake the shame

    You’re still tryna pass the blame

    But you can’t fool me now coz


    Look what you’ve done

    Feeling like a victim of a hit and run

    I said look what you’ve done

    Got me tangled up in all the words that you’ve spun

    Don’t claim worthy 

    You’re not sorry

    You’ve got blood on your hands

    So look what you’ve done


    Don’t keep to the front line

    Dispose of your land mines  

    If you’re gonna meet me out in no man’s land

    You’ve gotta come waving a white flag in your hand

    I’ve been losing sleep again

    I feel somethings out of place

    You’re there tryna pass the blame

    I’ve been losing sleep again

    Fighting wanna shake the shame

    You’re still tryna pass the blame

    But you can’t fool me now coz


    Look what you’ve done

    Feeling like a victim of a hit and run

    I said look what you’ve done

    Got me tangled up in all the words that you’ve spun

    Don’t claim worthy 

    You’re not sorry

    You’ve got blood on your hands

    So look what you’ve done


    Look what you’ve done

    You can’t fool me


    Look what you’ve done

    Feeling like a victim of a hit and run

    I said look what you’ve done

    Got me tangled up in all the words that you’ve spun

    Don’t claim worthy 

    You’re not sorry

    LYRICS:

    Not alone with these demons got that shame that you know just ain’t leaving 

    and you see that I am new to this feeling. I’m to blame.

    It was late in the evening and I know that we both had been drinking 

    but I know that there is just no excusin’. There’s a flame.

    But if we can call it love does it make us bad?

    If it’s in the name of love does it make us bad?


    What happened to the good people? Good Good people?

    What happened to the good people? Good Good people?

    What happened to the good people? Good Good people?

    What happened to the good people? Good Good people?


    Going over my reasons but the worrying just keeps on deepening 

    The choices that we made keep haunting. Think about him!

    Can’t excuse our behaviour you know that we weren’t thinking about her 

    but to get it all back to an order, nobody wins!

    But if we can call it love does it make us bad?

    If it’s in the name of love does it make us bad?


    What happened to the good people? Good Good people?

    What happened to the good people? Good Good people?

    What happened to the good people? Good Good people?

    What happened to the good people? Good Good people?


    So with love comes mistakes yeah

    And with mistakes there is hate

    Ooooh it may be hard to take

    That with love comes hate


    What happened to the good people? Good Good people?

    What happened to the good people? Good Good people?

    What happened to the good people? Good Good people?

    What happened to the good people? Good Good people?

    I’ve been waiting on the outside looking in

    I’ve been hoping to find a window


    But then you call me 

    Come get me 

    You’ll take me away

    You say follow

    You’ve got me

    From the darkness and grey


    Hold me closer and feel my heart beating

    Take a moment to savour this feeling

    Now forever   

    You and me we’re healing

    You and me we’re healing


    I am grateful that I followed the signs

    Every moment led me to you on this night

    Come take me away

    I was hollow

    And searching

    But you heard me pray


    Hold me closer and feel my heart beating

    LYRICS:

    In the end nobody won

    There’s nothing but losers

    Here in the end


    Coz now we’re back at the start 

    With all of our lessons

    Didn’t think you’d be here again


    Did you think that I would just lay down my sword?

    Did you think that I was just tired and bored?


    You always underestimated what I was worth

    You always underestimated what I deserved

    So I made sure you heard me 

    Yeah you hear me now


    In the end nobody won

    Cept maybe my virtue

    I held on so strong


    And now there’s still things unsaid

    It’s a beast of a burdon

    But I won’t regret a thing


    Seems like you just thought I would lay down my sword

    And maybe you just thought I would die if I cut your chord


    But you always underestimated what I was worth

    You always underestimated what I deserved

    So I made sure you heard me 

    Yeah you hear me now

    Yeah you hear me now


    You always underestimated what I was worth

    Always underestimated what I deserved

    So I made sure you heard me 

    Yeah you hear me now


    Yeah you hear me 

    yeah yeah you hear me
