about

After stumbling upon a Sunday documentary on conversion theory (an apparent 'successful' one at that at face value), One Kiss Away had to be written. After all, you gotta say it as you see it. Having desires that differ from the 'golden book of rules' that is thrust upon us as the standard narrative IS being human if you research history pre-agricultural age. Today's society is quick to condemn. Freedom is One Kiss Away.

lyrics

Tight line on a Sunday chat show
Hung the man out for what he'd done
He felt good in his gold stilettos
What a shame for the pastor's son

Oh you gotta say it as you see it
Oh it's not your thing but you kinda like it

You're inclined to cross the line
Fantasise a while, just take your time

Bad rap in a Sunday tabloid
Hung the girl out what a scene
She felt good at the nightclub party
What a shame for the football team

Oh you gotta say it as you see it
Oh it's not your thing but you kinda like it

You're inclined to cross the line
Fantasise a while, just take your time

Been a long time getting here
Every twist and turn I had to learn
There's nothing left in life to fear
When the voice in your head is clear

Dance around, same old tune
Howling loudly at the moon
You got chains you can't see
You gotta break them to be free

We're lighting a fire, burning a way
A beacon of light to guide what we say
A world in the dark, shaded in grey
The rules that you make are killing today

We're running the heads, breaking the waves
Cutting the chains of the coupling slaves
And it's all in the name, silent and strong
The nature of love where we all belong

Out here
Freedom is one kiss away
Freedom is one kiss away
Freedom is one kiss away

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
