This one’s about childhood

lyrics

White old house
On a cul de sac
It doesn't always make an appearance
When I'm looking back
Fairly unremarkable
Fairly middle class
No particular memories to speak of
Just a place to watch time pass

Put in a new drive way,
extended out the side
kept the lawn nice and short
so we didn’t have to stay inside
shed tucked away in woodland
the old fruit tree off on its own
I am sure it would feel smaller now
I am fully grown

and there’s always going to be
a part of me there
a part I’ve left far behind
and if they find it in the corner of the attic
then I hope they wouldn’t mind
keep it safe till some point
I return
When curiosity
gets the better of me
and we can light it up
and watch it burn
and maybe then I’ll be free

The crazy neighbours
all cats and car part junk
the school near by
that made me scared to leave my bunk
the changing of the guard
the hiding in my room
the box that I called home
should never be exhumed

The main thing I love to do is write songs. I pick up various instruments from ukulele to piano, accordion to percussion and electric guitar to harmonica and bang them about to try and get close to the noises I hear in my head but the writing comes first. ... more
