about

Home is where the heart is, the place for which you feel the deepest affection, a place of freedom where you can be yourself, understood and celebrated. These are not last words of the dying, they are affirmations of rebirth and hope - the very essence of living.

lyrics

This life, so short, In a blink it's gone
Yet still you will stand there with fear on your shoulders
And tell me, I'm wrong

No more
I'm done with falling on my sword for you
It's over
I'm just a call away from dancing with the
Angels and Queens and their lovers and their Kings
When the methadone kicks in and the fat lady sings
You can round up all the unicorns, plus ones old and young
And when my dance card is full I'll let you know my time is done

With your scorn, this crown of thorns
Misunderstood or just despised
I draw my strength, you draw your sword, these drugs don't work
I can't afford the time to lay here hoping for more

See me
Just this once can't you understand
It's over
I'm just a call away from dancing with the
Dreamers and beaus and a summer English rose
On the rebound from the garden says you reap all you can sow
You can hook up all the players, strip away their hardened layers
When the playtime bell is rung, I'll take my leave and hold my tongue for

No one, no one, no one, no one at all
Libertines in the city club scene
And the wide open beaches and the 'burbs in between
There's a truth in the heart of the tribe out there
Calling me home yeah

Now now now going home home home
Where my soul can love, where I'm not alone
Going in in in, share my heart, bare my skin
Let it breathe, let it live, let the truth, let this new life begin

You're lost and lonely we're waiting here for you

Dear friends you're gathered here
You talk of loss, life's so unfair
I was always the odd face the one not quite in place
And now that I've gone do you know

I'm going home
I'm going home
I'm going home
I'm coming home

Now now now going home home home
Where my soul can love, where I'm not alone
Going in in in, share my heart, bare my skin
Let it breathe, let it live, let the truth, let this new life begin

about

OLDER New Zealand

We produce music laden with antipathy for mainstream culture and seasoned with an alternative point of view, wrapped up in a deceptive layer of respectability. We champion the creative thinker and the under dog yapping in the wind. Everything we write is inspired by first-hand experience through our ADHD lens. If we resonate with you then that's a connection that means everything to us. ... more
